Treadmills often vibrate, just a common side effect of running on it.

Location of your treadmill is key most of the time for reducing vibrations or noise due to impact.

This impact is spread to the floor from the feet of the treadmill, which is a small surface area.

You want to make sure that your treadmill is leveled and it is best that it is placed on a rubber treadmill mat.

This will absorb the impact, as well as the sound and the shock of the vibrations.

A thick rubber mat will act as both a sound and impact suppressor between you, the machine, and the floor. The thicker the mat, the better.

If this does not fix the issue, we would be happy to help you further diagnose the problem by phone 888-713-2880 or by chat at www.sportsmith.net

We also have rubber mats available for your treadmill if you need a new one! Otherwise, good luck on the repair :)

hi,
To adjust the treadmill belt just watch the following video. It will help you for the same.


ok

Inspect the walking board and belt first.Feel the tecture at the outer edge of the belt, then feel the center. If it feel fuzzy, the walking belt is worn.
Check the walking board for damage, deep scratches, excessive friction will cause an over current shutdown of the controller.
If the walking belt and board are good, lubricate the walking board and belt and try again.
Does the motor spark allot when running?? This will also cause over current.
Have you tightened the belt (too tight??)
After covering these suggestions, if the same problem is apparent, change the motor controller..

It might just need a simple adjustment of the running belt that can eliminate the slipping refer to you owner's manual for the procedure. It will be close to all treadmill adjustments.
Here is a generic procedure for adjusting the belt:
If the walking belt slips when walked on. Run the treadmill @ 3 to 4 mph, walk for a few minutes, Using the allen wrench, turn both rear roller adjustment bolts clockwise, 1/4 of a turn. Then repeat adjusting procedure until walking belt is properly tightened.

Walking Belt is Worn: The only certain way to test for a worn walking belt is to take a DC amp draw (if you have a DC treadmill) or an AC draw (for AC). Trying to look at the belt or a feel test is highly unreliable. Better tests, if you lack a DC ammeter (they are expensive for a good one), are a coast test or an incline test. The coast test is to get on the treadmill as the lowest incline setting and walk on the treadmill at 3 MPH. Pull the safety key and it should take you 2-3 full steps to stop (this is a general rule…some like a few Tunturi models stop on a dime even with a healthy belt but for most models, this tests works well upon). Fewer steps indicate high friction. The incline test is to put the treadmill at max incline and walk on it at 3 MPH. If the treadmill operates normally at max incline but bogs down at minimum incline, replace the walking belt. Gravity takes over for the drive system eliminating much of the friction problem. On some heavily worn walking belts, this test will not eliminate the problem. Go to your local hard ware store and purchase silicone spray. Apply Lubricant by lift one side of the running belt spray contents length wise starting at motor shroud to the back end repeat this process on the other side. If this unit bogs down again then you will have replace the running belt and possibly the deck

Unplug the unit remove the motor shroud inspect the drive belt if the rubber feel slick then my recommendation is to replace the drive belt. Adjusting the drive belt may take care of the problem if you do not need to adjust it too tight. If you choose to do the adjusting and feel you have adjusted the running belt thinking it would resolve the slipping, then back the tension down until it the running belt is slipping then adjust until the slippage is resolved.

Unplug the treadmill then loosen the running belt and physically feel the full length of the deck and then chick the entire running belt something is stuck causing the scrapping.

If the treadmill slows down or cuts off when warm it is probably a worn or dry walk belt.Lift the edge of the walk belt and feel the underside of it about 1 inch from the edge,now compare that to the underside of it in towards the middle where your feet are stepping on it,if that area feels alot more frayed or fuzzy the walk belt is worn.Now rub your hand on the platform surface where the walk belt rides,you should feel a wax film on the platform,if not you can purchase treadmill wax from the manufacturer,retailer or on-line.Apply the wax under the belt in towards the center 2/3 of the belt area,that should be done whenever you don't feel that wax film when you check it.
