Is your treadmill worn, torn or curling at the edges? And 'to slow down in your treadmill when you start to step on the belt and the race?
If this is the case, then perhaps it's time to replace the tape.
Here are some things to consider before going to the belt.
* 1 You need to make sure that the deck of the treadmill is in good condition. If it looks good then it can only be waxed or oiled.
* 2 If the deck shows obvious signs of wear or have worn groovesthen it may need to replace the belt and deck.
* 3 If the deck looks good, and the belt is worn or starting, turn on the edges, then it is time to replace the tape. Here are instructions for doing so. Most treadmills are basically the same thing, this is a generic set of instructions. If you need a manual, please follow the manufacturer's instructions.
At the beginning of the tape is changed, unplug the power cord and remove the motor cover or hood. Then tryScrews or bolts by which the belt tension must be adjusted. They are usually on both sides at the rear of the treadmill. Loosen both sides and slide the rear roller on the deck.
Now loosen and remove the front roller. If your treadmill inclines, turn on the unit and then raise the treadmill a few degrees so the roller can be removed. After the front roller, remove the rear roller. Now you are ready to remove the belt.
I know it would be easier to just copy off the old belt,But then if one piece you will notice how the new structure. On either side of the treadmill is located bolts or screws that hold the cover in place. Remove these and lift the lid and the old band together. Now it's time to wax or lubricate the deck.
Check the old belt and new belt. It will probably be a seam visible on the tape. Normally the belt should be installed so that the seam goes downward from left to right, are like a backslash.Some belt manufacturers must mark the belt on the inside with an arrow in the direction of travel belt.
Slide the tape deck in the right direction and put the belt and deck together again on the treadmill. Start all screws and bolts before tightening securely. Decks tend to deformed after a while ', so you may need a little push or pull' to start the screws. I discovered that it is a good idea to install the rollers before securely fasteningthe bridge to the frame.
Pull the strap on the back of the treadmill and slide the rear roller through it. Start the screws in the roller just enough so as not to fall. Now, slide the front roller inside the belt and replace the belt on the engine sprocket. Do it before pulling the roller. After the front roller is tight, then tighten the rear roller with the adjusting screws. Tighten each side equally until the belt feels comfortable on the deck.
Nowon the treadmill. When the tape starts moving, carefully step on the treadmill, while the side rails. When the tape stops, then you need to adjust more. Get off the treadmill, and tighten each turn the screw again and step on the tape. Repeat this process until the tape stops.
Now increase the speed to maintain a fast pace, the handrails and are under pressure as you walk on the treadmill. If the belt stops or hesitates then adjust a little '. Now you increase the speed of aJog, probably around 5 mph again, if you hesitate, the belt you feel when you take your foot to make it even more. Repeat this process until you are satisfied that the belt does not slip.
Be careful if you do not think you can pay someone to do it for you.
Please follow these instructions for safe and efficient use of your treadmill for you and your family.
