How to Troubleshoot a C2270

The C2270 is one of NordicTrack's popular treadmills and features a console to select and monitor your workout, a pulse sensor to check your heart rate, a fan and a book holder. If something goes wrong with the treadmill, you don't want to miss out on your next workout, waiting for someone to come and fix the problem so consider working out the solution yourself.

      Place the treadmill on a level surface, and leave two feet of space on each side of the unit and eight feet behind it when in use. Leaving space around the treadmill will help it work properly.

      Tighten all screws and bolts along both sides of the walking platform, where the handrail connects to the walking platform and where the handrail is attached to the console. Use a Phillips screw driver and an Allen wrench to do this.

      Adjust the walking belt by turning the rear roller bolts counterclockwise with an Allen wrench. The bolts are located at the rear of the walking platform, where it curves down to the floor. Make sure that the belt is not over-tightened and can be lifted 3 to 4 inches off of the platform.
