TENSIONING THE BELT PROCEDURE
Caution:
Over-tightening of the roller will severely shorten the life of the belt and may
cause further damage to other components.

If when you plant your foot on the belt, you can feel a slipping sensation then
the belt has stretched and is slipping across the rollers. This is a normal and
common adjustment on a new treadmill. To eliminate this slipping, tension
both the rear rollers Allen bolts 1/4 TURN as shown above. Try the treadmill
again to check for slipping. Repeat if necessary, but NEVER TURN the roller
bolts more than 1/4 turn at a time.
