It's hard to say but, lets assume that with one bold doing the work, it does put this last bolt under strain and will, given time, snap as well and then the whole belt with be damaged or will stop operating. Looks like these 2 bolts are there to hold or tension the belt. You didn't say which bolt is broken, the top one or bottom one, the left or right. You know. A lot of people buy treadmills and use them often but, for the bolt to break, it must be because the belt is running really dry. Do you lubricate the base of the bed (the large plate where the belt slides on and you walk or run on it)? I bet you haven't since you bought it. But let me tell you this, the treadmills are great to practice or do strenuous training, however they're delicate when it comes to running on them without lubrication. Most of the moving components are self lubricated, like the motor, the gearbox and the belt rollers, etc. - they have bearings or lifelong lubricated bronze bushing; whatever they use, it requires little or no lubrication for the life or the treadmill, but the belt that you run on, often gets dry from dust, becomes warm and increase drag, thus overworking the motor until it either cooks out (fuses out) or some things like the bolts snap right off. To make sure that it works lightly and without drag you should spray a quality silicone spray on the bed base. As silicone comes in spray form, this is effective if you have Lino floors but if you have carpet, the spray stains the carpet over time. It's best if you use a lint free cloth, go outside, spray on the cloth and then return inside to the treadmill, lift the belt with your fingers and soak or smear the bed evenly once every months if used sparingly or twice per month is used a lot. You only need to smear the smooth base of the bed, you do not need to apply too much. Just feel with your hand (fingers), if it feels moist or slippery, it's enough. Run the belt slowly a minute before beginning your exercises. Hope it helps.

It could be because it is overheating due to the fact that the floor belt is too dry and the motor is labouring hard to spin the floor belt. When was the last time you lubricated the base of the floor belt (the flat base where the floor belt slides on)? A couple of little sprays of Silicone Lubricant should ease the motor workload as the floor belt rolls on. If you're a big person, the excess weight also tempts to dry the floor belt quicker and if you're running on it while the home is being heated in winter of during warm summer days, or you are training on carpeted or linty areas, all the excess heat and dust dries the floor belt faster and need to be lubricated more often. Lift the floor belt and feel with your hands if there is any lubrication. A wet feel means it is lubricated, while a dry feel or sticky hand as you move your hand left and right means it is dry. Dry belts are the blame of 80-90% of motor failure and or seizures due to lack of care and maintenance. Lubricate it once per month. If you don't like spraying Silicone lubricant directly under the floor belt, do this; find a lint-less rug such as a kitchen drying cloth and go outside the house, spray the Silicone lubricant on the cloth to lightly soak it and then go to the treadmill, lift the floor belt and apply the wet cloth evenly on the base until you believe it is lubricated enough to make the rolling of the belt with ease. Run it for half a minute at slow speed (walking pace) before you can safely use it for running or jogging, etc.

sounds like the treadmill is drawing too many amps. try using a larger surge protector.
