When using the NordicTrack in manualmode, you can adjust its resistance by twisting a resistance knob, locatedeither in the corner of the console or on the upright support. If the treadmillbelt slips from side to side, you need to adjust its tension via bolts locatedin the back of the machine frame. First find the treadmill adjustmentbolts in the rear end of the treadmill frame, to either side of the belt. Now putin an Allen wrench into each bolt, one at a time, and turn each bolt aquarter-turn clockwise. Slip one hand among the belt and the treadmill deck. Ifthis doesn't pull the treadmill belt taut, it's still too loose. Tighten thebolts another quarter-turn. Continue testing the belt tension, then adjustingthe bolts as needed, until the belt is just loose enough for you to slip yourhand between it and the deck with no extra slack. Step onto the treadmill andwalk. The belt shouldn't bind or slip side to side. If it does, dismount andre-adjust the bolts until the belt tracks correctly. AV

The resistance belt on the nordictrack cx990 is too hard, is it broken

if your belt has broken you would have no resistance at all.sounds like the belt could be frayed and is caught up somewhere or something else came loose. the rear cover needs to be removed to see what is wrong.

Just bought a Nordictrack a2550 last week. Only used it for about 2 hours and I'm having bet issues already. The belt will not stay centered no matter how much I try to fix it. The belt is also slipping...

Do you know if you are tightening it correctly?
Both bolts at the back of the walking belt should be turned clockwise to tighten the belt. You must also tighten the bolts the same amount and typically no more than 1/2 turns at a time. I usually adjust belts while the machine is running at approx 3 mph. Your belt should be just tight enough to not slip when you walk on it. If its too tight you'll wear out the motor bearings.

I have a nordictrack a2250 when run on it the belt slips i need to tighten the belt

If your treadmill has had a lot of use, the belt has probably stretched and needs replacing. You can order a new one at Treadmill Parts

When I try to walk on the treadmill the belt stops even though the motor and drum keep spinning.

You need to tighten the belt by winding the screw bars located in the corners of the rollers. thanks

Our belt is slipping on our nordic track c1900 treadmill, how do i fix it?

I have the same unit. First, remove the hood. Then, the motor has an adjustment screw on the belt side of the motor. Loosen the nut a little, adjust the motor up or down to make the belt as tight as you can by hand, then re-tighten the nut. This always fixes mine.

Treadmill Incline Works, belt does not move

Check the drive belt. It may be loose or broken. If the belt is loose, then to tighten the drive belt, start by removing the front cover. loosen the bolts around the motor then tighten the drive belt by tightening the motor adjuster bolt. Once the drive belt is tight, tighten the motor back down.
