left side of the frame. Tighten about 1/4 of
turn (clockwise). If the belt does not move
back to the center of the treadmill, make
another adjustment to the same bolt.
Once the Walking Belt has been adjusted
closer to the center, the treadmill can be
started again.

loosen the bolts and end caps. Pull up the
Walking Belt, dispense the lubricant on the
deck and spread evenly. After lubricating the
deck, center the belt and check the belt
tension. If the belt happens to slip, follow the
above steps and lubricate the running deck.
