My treadmill belt slips to the side (either left or right depending) and I keep tightening it and centering.. how do I know if it’s too tight?

    if you can lift the side of the belt 3-4 inches, it’s not too tight.

    I would try lubricating and cleaning the belt too, it will prevent it from heating up and expanding. I’m not there so I can’t inspect it, but sometimes you need a new walking belt.

    If you want to know more send me a message with the make and model of your machine and we’ll talk.
