On most treadmills there are two screws/bolts at the bottom end of the platform, one on each side. Should be able to adjust the tension of the belt with these screws. Tightening the screws evenly should pull the drum back, tightening the belt.

Mine had a couple of allen wrench screws that could be adjusted for tracking and tension. Good luck
