BELT AS WELL AS PLACE AN UNNECESSARY LOAD ON THE ROLLER BEARINGS.
A. TRACKING (CENTERING) AN EXISTING OR NEW STRIDING BELT
NOTE: IT IS EXTREMELY IMPORTANT THAT THE TREADMILL BE CORRECTLY LEVELED PRIOR TO
ANY TRACKING ADJUSTMENTS. AN UNSTABLE UNIT MAY CAUSE STRIDING BELT MISALIGNMENT.
Step 1
Enter the Manual Program and set the BELT speed to run at 4.0 mph (6.4 kph).

How To...ADJUST AND TENSION THE STRIDING BELT (Continued)
Step 2
Before proceeding it is helpful to visualize the REAR ROLLER pivot point as shown in the Figure below. Each
adjustment made to one s ide of the ROLLER m ust be m et with an equal and opposite adjus tment to the other side
of the ROLLER to maintain an ideal STRIDING BELT tension at the pivot point.
IF THE STRIDING BELT M OVES T O T HE RIGHT, tur n the right TENSIONING BO LT 1/4 turn c lockwise and then
turn the left TENSIONING BOLT 1/4 turn counter cloc kwise to start the ST RIDING BELT track ing back to center of
the REAR ROLLER.
IF THE STRIDING BELT MOVES TO THE LEFT, turn the left T ENSIO NING BO LT 1/4 tur n c lockwise and then turn
the right TENSIONING BOLT 1/4 turn c ounter clockwise to start STRIDING BELT track ing back to center of the
REAR ROLLER.
CAUTION: DO NOT TURN THE TENSIONING BOLT MORE THAN 1/4 TURN AT ONE
TIME OR A MAXIMUM OF 1 FULL TURN.
Step 3
Repeat adjustments until the STRIDING BELT appears centered allowing the machine to continue running for
several minutes to observe if tracking remains stabilized.
B. TENSIONING THE EXISTING STRIDING BELT
Step 1
If your treadmill does not have holes in the REAR ENDCAPS which allow access to the two BELT TENSIONING
BOLTS, remove the four SCREWS from the REAR ENDCAPS and remove the CAPS.
Step 2
Enter the Manual Program and run unit for five minutes at 5.0 m.p.h (8kph).
Step 3
With the belt speed at 2.0 m.p.h. (3.2 kph), tightly grasp the HANDRAILS and attempt to stall the STRIDING BELT.
If the STRIDING BELT slips , continue to Step 4. If the STRIDING BELT no longer slips, the treadm ill is ready to
resume operation.

How To...ADJUST AND TENSION THE STRIDING BELT (Continued)
Step 4
Alternately turn the BELT TENSIONING BOLTS 1/4 turn clockwise to tension, not to exceed 1 full turn. Repeat
Steps 2 and 3 until the STRIDING BELT no longer slips. See Section A for BELT centering procedures.
C. RE-TENSIONING THE EXISTING STRIDING BELT AFTER REMOVAL
CAUTION: WHENEVER REMOVING OR REINSTALLING AN EXISTING STRIDING BELT, DO NOT
REMOVE OR LOOSEN THE FRONT ROLLER.
Step 1
After reinstalling the STRIDING BELT and the REAR F RAME, center the STRIDING BELT over both the FRONT
and REAR ROLLERS for proper aligning and tensioning.
Step 2
Retension the STRIDING BELT by ALTERNATELY AND EQUALLY turning the two BELT TENSIONING BOLTS
clockwise until the STRIDING BELT seems snug against the REAR ROLLER.
WARNING: DO NOT OVERTENSION THE STRIDING BELT TENSIONING BOLTS TO AVOID POSSIBLE
DAMAGE TO THE STRIDING BELT AND THE ROLLER BEARINGS.
Step 3
Go to Section B, Steps 2 through 4 of the TENSIONING procedure.
Step 4
Go to Section A, Step 2 for CENTERING the STRIDING BELT.
Step 5
After making an adj ustment, run the treadmill for several m inutes and observe how the STRIDING BELT tracks.
Adjustments to the STRIDING BELT tracking takes several minutes to bec ome apparent. Increase speed to 5.0
m.p.h. (8 kph) and make final adjustments to TENSIONING BOLTS as required.
CAUTION: DO NOT TURN TENSIONING BOLTS MORE THAN 1/4 TURN AT ONE
TIME OR A MAXIMUM OF 1 FULL TURN.

D. REPLACING THE STRIDING BELT WITH A NEW STRIDING BELT
CAUTION: WHENEVER REMOVING OR REINSTALLING AN EXISTING STRIDING BELT, DO NOT
REMOVE OR LOOSEN THE FRONT ROLLER.
Step 1
When inst alling a new STRIDING BELT , tak e spec ial care to ins ure the ARROWS stam ped on the unders ide of the
STRIDING BELT point in the direction of the machine rotation. I f the ST RIDING BELT bears the Lifestride logo, it
should be readable to a person using the treadmill for proper rotation.
Step 2
After installing the new STRIDING BELT, but prior to tensioning, place two pieces of tape exactly 38.5 inches (97.79
cm) apart on both the right and left edges of the STRIDING BELT.
Step 3
Alternately tighten the two TENSIONING BOLTS 1/4 turn clockwise eac h until the distance between the tapes is
38.75 inches (98.425 cm) which is the equivalent of .65% stretch.
Step 4
Adjust TRACKING (see Section A, Steps 2, 3 and 4).

ATTENTION: THIS PROCEDURE SHOULD BE PERFORMED TO INSURE THAT THE LIFT ACTUATOR
ASSEMBLY’S MOTOR IS BEING SHUT OFF BY THE HOME SWITCH RATHER THAN THE LIFT
ACTUATOR’S INTERNAL SAFETY SWITCH.
Step 1
Turn the power OFF at the switch and by
unplugging the unit from the electrical
outlet.
Step 2
Remove the MOTOR COVER.
Step 3
Carefully tilt the treadmill on to its right side.
Step 4
Remove the BOLT and NUT securing the
bottom of the LIFT ACTUATOR SLEEVE to
the LIFT FRAME WHEEL ASSEMBLY.
Step 5
Turn the LIFT ACTUATOR SLEEVE
CLOCKWISE until it makes contact with
the bottom of the LIFT ACTUATOR
CASING.
Step 6
Now turn the LIFT ACTUATOR SLEEVE
COUNTERCLOCKWISE until the holes at
the base of the LIFT ACTUATOR SLEEVE
align in the same direction as the holes in
the LIFT FRAME ASSEMBLY.
Step 7
Finally, turn the LIFT ACTUATOR SLEEVE 180° (1/2 revolution) in a COUNTER CLOCKWISE direction. The gap
between the bottom of the LIFT ACTUATOR CASING and the top of the LIFT ACTUATOR SLEEVE should now be
between .080 to .125 inches (2.032 to .3175 cm).
Step 8
Replace the BOLT and NUT you had previously removed to secure the bottom of the LIFT ACTUATOR SLEEVE to
the LIFT FRAME ASSEMBLY.
Step 9
Carefully tilt the treadmill back to its operating position. Visually inspect the gap setting of the LIFT ACTUATOR
SLEEVE and the LIFT ACTUATOR CASING with the machine resting at a zero (0) percent incline.
Step 10
Turn the power ON at the ON switch and by plugging the unit into the electrical outlet. Perform the “How
To...EXECUTE THE INCLINE CONTROL TEST” described in the Section III Diagnostic Tests included in this
Service Manual.
