Checking the Alignment of the Running Belt
Proper alignment allows the belt to remain centered and
ensures smooth operation. Realigning the belt takes a few
simple adjustments. If you are unsure about this procedure,
call Precor Customer Support (refer to Obtaining Service).
CAUTION: Take special care when aligning the running belt. Turn
OFF the treadmill while adjusting or working near the rear roller.
Do NOT wear loose clothing or allow your hair to hang loose
during this procedure. Be very careful to keep your fingers and
any other object clear of the belt and rollers, especially in front of
the roller and behind the deck. The treadmill will not stop
immediately if an object becomes caught in the belt or rollers.
To align the running belt:
1.
Make sure that the running surface is as level as possible.
If necessary, adjust the rear feet as shown in the
Assembly Guide to level the treadmill.
Note: Adjusting the rear feet cannot compensate for
extremely uneven surfaces. If you cannot make the
running surface level and stable, move the treadmill.
2.
Turn the treadmill ON.
3.
Standing beside the treadmill (not on it), press GO on the
console.
4.
If necessary, enter the safety code by pressing the
number keys in sequence. The running belt starts
automatically after a 3-second countdown appears on the
console.
5.
Press the SPEED UP key until the console shows a speed
of 3 mph (5 kph).
CAUTION: If you hear any chafing or the running belt appears
to be getting damaged, stop the running belt immediately by
pressing the red STOP button. Contact Precor Customer
Support.
