Treadmill
XT385
The treadmill is designed so that the tread-belt remains reasonably centered while in use. It is
normal for some belts to drift near one side while in use, depending on a user’s gait and if they
favor one leg. But if during use the belt continues to move toward one side, adjustments are
necessary.
SETTING TREAD-BELT TRACKING
An 6mm Allen wrench is provided for this adjustment. Make tracking adjustments on the left side
bolt. Set belt speed at 3 mph. Be aware that a small adjustment can make a dramatic difference
which may not be apparent right away. If the belt
is too close to the left side, then turn the bolt
only a 1/4 turn to the right (clockwise) and wait
a few minutes for the belt to adjust itself.
Continue to make 1/4 turns until the belt
stabilizes in the center of the running deck.
If the belt is too close to the right side, turn the
bolt counter-clockwise. The belt may require
periodic tracking adjustment depending on use
and walking/running characteristics. Some users may affect tracking differently. Expect to make
adjustments as required to center the tread-belt. Adjustments will become less of a maintenance
concern as the belt is used. Proper belt tracking is an owner responsibility common with all
treadmills.
ATTENTION
Damage to the running belt resulting from improper tracking / tension adjustments is not
covered under the Spirit Fitness warranty.
Treadbelt Tracking Adjustment
Do not lubricate with other than Spirit Fitness approved lubricant.
Your treadmill comes with one tube of lubricant and extra tubes can
be ordered directly from Spirit Fitness or your authorized Spirit Fitness
dealer.
Keeping the deck lubricated at the recommended intervals ensures
the longest life possible for your treadmill. If the lubricant dries out, the
friction between the belt and deck rises and places undue stress on
the drive motor, drive belt and electronic motor control board, which
could result in catastrophic failure of these expensive components. Failure to lubricate the deck at regular
intervals may void the warranty.
The belt & deck come pre-lubricated and subsequent lubrication should be performed every 180 hours
of use. The console has a built in lubrication reminder indicator that lights every 180 hours of use.
Use the lubricant to lubricate the deck beneath the belt. If you can reach under the belt approximately
6” on each side, use the following procedure: Unplug the electrical cord. At the middle of the deck, lift up
on the belt and reach under with the tube of lubricant. Squirt most of the lubricant on the deck surface.
Repeat the process on the opposite side. Plug the electrical cord back into the outlet and walk on the belt
at a moderate speed for ve minutes.
If unable to perform the above procedure, it will be necessary to loosen the walking belt. Using the 6
mm Allen wrench supplied, loosen the two rear roller adjustment bolts -- located in the rear end caps –
enough to get your hand under the belt (5 –10 turns). Make sure to loosen both bolts the same amount
of turns and also remember how many turns, because when nished you will need to tighten the bolts
back to the point they were before.
Once the belt is loose, wipe the deck with a clean lint free cloth to remove any dirt. Apply the whole
tube of lubricant onto the deck surface about 18 inches from the motor cover. Squeeze out the contents
of the tube across the deck (parallel to the motor cover) in about a one-foot line, like toothpaste on a
toothbrush. The one-foot line should be in the middle of the deck at approximately equal distance from
both side edges of the belt. You want the lubricant to be applied about the spot that your feet would hit
the belt as you are walking. This should be about 18 inches from the motor cover, but you may want to
walk on the treadmill before loosening the belt to note where your feet land on the belt. If you mostly use
the treadmill for running, the spot where your feet land may be different from walking.
Once the lubricant is applied, tighten the rear roller bolts the same amount of turns as when you
loosened them. Run the treadmill at about 3 mph without walking on it for about a minute or two to
make sure the belt stays in the middle of the deck. If the belt tracks to one side then follow the belt
tracking instructions to remedy. Now the deck is lubricated and you should walk, not run, on the treadmill
immediately for at least 5 minutes to ensure the lubricant is evenly distributed.
