Running Belt Tracking Adjustment - GE T2100-ST1 Operator's Manual

Running Belt Tracking Adjustment

This procedure requires the following tool:
NOTE:
The patented MasterTrack
reduces the need to adjust the belt on your T2100-ST1 or T2100-ST2
treadmill. However, when you operate your T2100-ST1 or T2100-
ST2 treadmill for the first time, you may need to adjust the tracking
of the belt to conform to your floor. You may also need to adjust the
tracking if you move the machine to another location.
Your running belt should remain centered, although a slight amount
of movement to the left or right is normal during use. Do not allow
the running belt to travel all the way to either side.
To adjust the belt tracking, do the following:

Because this adjustment is not covered under your warranty,
it is important that you review these instructions thoroughly
before proceeding.
Turn the treadmill's power switch to ON.
Increase the speed to 3 mph (4.8 km/h)
Observe the left side of the running belt as it travels over the
rear roller. If the belt runs to the right side of the roller, turn
the right bolt 1/8 turn clockwise, and turn the left bolt 1/16
turn counterclockwise.
NOTE:
When tightening one side of the belt, always loosen the
opposite side one-half as much. This procedure provides
finer control, with a smaller impact on the belt tension.
Check the belt after 2 minutes, with the treadmill running at
approximately 7 mph (11.3 km/h). If the belt does not correct
itself, continue with slight turns until the belt is in the center of
the rear roller. If the belt runs toward the left side of the roller,
reverse the adjustments.
NOTE:
Uneven floors accelerate belt misalignment. This
situation may require more frequent adjustment to
prevent belt damage.
