- Hey guys, this is the follow-up video to my Superfit Treadmill 3 months. Since then I have gotten a lot of questions such as my treadmill does not power on, I cover that, how to clean and replace parts. How to clean and replace the motor. What does it look like inside? How to clean the back tray and more. My channel is all about helping you do stuff and things. These are answers to some of the questions that you asked before
Your videos are SO HELPFUL thank you so much for making them!
Thank-you for watching. If they help please like and subscribe. You have no idea how I love to hear comments like this. My channel does not make any money at least not yet. My paycheck is to know that my doing stuff and things has helped someone with their issues. You made my day.
UPDATE: This solution is for the issue of the conveyor belt being stuck with code error E05. The treadmill turns on, the fuze is good, the motor is trying to go but the belt is not moving and producing a burning smell.
In my case, the issue was the motor out of alignment and it could not spin the little side belt that’s connected to the main conveyor belt. When you take the top cover off, you can see if the motor is aligned parallel to the nearby components. If not, there are 2 bolts behind and under the motor that you can adjust it with and release any tension. Just make sure the bolts are tight again once you align the motor.
My treadmill started spinning again once I aligned the motor. It did sound different than before though, perhaps some damage was already done when it got stuck, but so far the treadmill been running without any other issues. Good luck.

Best video for this treadmill I’ve seen! Unfortunately seeing some issues with mine after about a year. Motor sounds like it’s clicking and vibrating a bit when under use. I don’t hear it when I move the belt by hand. Walking belt it lubricated. Tightening motor belt helps but the problem persists. Replacement motors aren’t in stock but even if they were it feels weird to replace the motor after just a year.
I agree, it should last more than a year. How long are your sessions? I would do a really good cleaning. Parts for this are not easy to find. I do have other videos that tackle some of the issues ruclips.net/p/PLDolPKHkpPfFPRon7Ot4n8NUbB8YdGrjY Maybie tweaking the settings on the belt and motor may help. Let me kinow if there is anything else that I can help you with.
@@Rudyworld what kind of cleaning? I tried loosening the walking belt until it slips then just going slightly tighter. I tried different motor belt tightnesses but couldn't find one that reduced the noise/vibration. I took apart the motor and cleaned it, but didn't see anything visibly off, the bearings seemed totally smooth for example. I was out of my element so I just bought a whole new one 🤷. My original one was $500 (COVID pricing) but the new one is $200 so at least it wasn't crazy expensive. I'll take better care of this one and hopefully it lasts at least a couple years. The more roboust treadmills are over $1k so I'm OK with replacing the cheap ones every few years if necessary.
@@joejoeejoeee Some lubrication and cleaning and oiling the front roller. I have lots of videos if you need anything specific let me know. I mean I bought this and it has served me well. I keep it in front of the TV so I get some miles in. Unlike a gym membership, you have a physical item. It has held up pretty well.
@@Rudyworld how do you oil the front roller?
My treadmill has been fine. Today I attempted to walk and when I turned it on I get a flashing code of EO1, have been trying to figure out what it is , any idea? thanks
@Rudolf Horak thank you for such great videos. Do you know what kind of fuse that is and where to purchase it? thanks in advance
the fuse is 20mm 15A 250V, plenty on ebay
It depends on what fuse is out. There is the blue fuse that I show and it looks like there is also a round fuse near the power switch. If you pull the fuse out it should list the value of it.
Are you addressing the blue one near the black capacitor with the orange sticker or the round one near the power switch?

Video coming soon on that topic stay tuned
I have a knocking sound coming from the front of the treadmill. But it's still working well-just a noisy knocking. Any ideas what it could be caused by? I can send you a short video if it helps to diagnose. Thanks!
Does it make that sound with the front cover off? Always only make adjustments that you are comfortable doing safely. It could be the black wheel there hitting something. If the belt had issues it would be more of a rubbing sound.
I wish u had a video to show how u unscrew all the 7 ones for the motor.
yes, I can't see what he is doing... one youtube with a superfit, the guy just lifts the motor cover off, on my machine, that part is separate piece but it does not lift off. everything I have tried so far, adjust belt tension, adjust motor and pulley, does not stop the squealing noise and some adjustments, made operation worse. Adjusting the pulley tension slightly did not stop but reduced the slipping but, it made more motor noise so I reduced the adjustment. NO way to talk to superfit, will not be my choice for a replacement and a pity, it was a nice small size...
The button on/off switch on ours is not working properly. It doesn’t click into the on position. Any tips on how I can fix this?
That is very serious. The switch will need to be replaced. If you are comfortable in doing it safely you can contact the manufacturer or research the exact switch that needs to be replaced.
Hey! So I’ve taken a look at two of your videos. Wish I watched them before I messed with the darn thing lol. So My belt is slipping. I’ve lubed it. But the issue I’m running into is I tightened the two bolts at the front of the treadmill. At the motor. I didn’t pay attention, I just cranked them all the way to the right. How do I fix this lol? Thanks!!
As long as you didn't damage the big belt, try to return them where they were. I am not sure what bolts you tightened. The belt should be tight so it does not slip but not too tight where it snaps. Inside is also another belt that connects the motor to the axel that has the big belt you are standing on. If you can tell me more as to which bolts you tightened then maybe I can help further.
@@Rudyworld hey! Thanks for getting back to me! So I didn’t tighten the back two at all(the ones on the back left and the back right). At the front of the treadmill there’s two bolts under the display. The instructions said it was for the belt tightness and the motor leveling?The instructions are in broken English so it wasn’t very helpful. If you’re facing the two bolts I’ve tightened. The one on right(closest to the edge of the treadmill) gets really tight/ hard to turn(this one was said to be used to tighten the belt. The other feels loose (instructions said it was for the motor level?). The treadmill skips when you step on it. Since then I’ve adjusted the back two bolts. The instructions say to adjust them inwards to change the belt one way, and outwards to change it another. It seems like the belt is straight. But it’s skipping. Very weird. Thank you for any help if this cleared it up more!
i don't know what's wrong with the little remote that powers it up. Battery replaced but still doesn't connect to the treadmill and allow for speed change. It won't go at all right now.
Check to see if the battery is new. try moving the remove around the front of the unit. One of the design faults that I don't like is that you have to have that remote to work. It could have gotten damaged since you said it will turn it off and on.
I walk on mine about 3 hours a day and it smells like it's burning. We lubricated and it was good for a day and smelled again today.
Looks like your comment reposted. Thanks for watching.
hi, I have a question, I have exactly the same treadmill which I bought about one year ago. recently, it start having problem. When I step on the treadmill, the bely stop moving. It feels like the motor is not strong enough to keep moving. i am only 110 lb so I will think the problem is the treadmill :). what should I do? I tried to tighten the belt but no luck. Thanks.
I would try to lubricate it like I show in my videos. Has it ever been lubricated? If you need help, let me know.
Question! If the belt is misaligning on the front end and not the back end, would that be the same process as adjusting it in the back?
Yes, because a part of the alignment is to loosen the belt. When you do, you can adjust it by moving the front part of the belt, the part by the front roller to center it. After that, is the harder part, to make sure that you tighten the back screws evenly. This is then tested by running the belt at low speeds to make sure it stays in the center. I always make time for this since this can take some time. But, can be done:)
Hi! I got this treadmill from Amazon brand new a week ago. I’ve only used it 5 times, each time for 30 minutes, and on the last day I used it the treadmill started to display an error 01. I gave it a day and it is still showing this message. Do you have any advice on how I can fix this? Thank you!
Have you performed the lubrication since you have purchased it? It points to the speed sensor and recommends lubricating.
Hi! I'm running into this same issue and was wondering if you were ever able to fix it?
I was not sadly. I did all the maintenance right and lubricated it. I ended up returning it.
Hello I just got mine and it worked for 5 mins and it just stopped working. Its turning on but no display on the screen, no sound as well.
check the plugs make sure you didn't trip the breaker in your house. It could also be the fuse that I talke about in my video.
I have the same treadmill and am having an issue with a high pitch squealing sound when walking on it. Any pressure causes it but it's fine when it's on with nothing on it. I've lubricated, adjusted the belt. Everything. Any ideas?
Where is the sound coming from? Is it the upper left corner?
Yes its coming from there for me
Mine too . Did you ever fix it?
Hello, I have a question. Can you tell me the part number of the component that is located between the winding and the large capacitor? It has 8 pins and is black. Thank you very much for your video.
Can you freeze and zoom on to the part number? I also have a few maintenance videos that show that area. Usually if it blows it should blow the fuse.
Hi! I bought this about a month ago and started smelling a burning. Would this be due to lack of lubrication and maybe a too tight belt?
It could be just breaking it in. When I opened mine up there was some dust on and near the motor. I get that smell when I run it for more than an hour. When I do my usual 30 minutes no smell.
Mine started doing this too. I do all the steps to align but the belt keeps drifting. When I tighten it so it doesn’t slip, the motor stops working. Any other tips?
@@chelseacmarshall the bolts need to be loosened and turned evenly. If it is drifting left then turn the right side if it is drifting right do left. It takes time. I usually prop it up and test stop readjust test again. The drifting g is caused by uneven sides.
how do u make sure ur belt is tight? After relubricating my treadmill I put on the screws but the belt isn’t moving at all
like, it turns on and everything and the thing that holds the belt is spinning but the belt itself is not moving :(
Here is a better video about how to tighten the belt. You have to tighten the screws to tighten the belt. They also have to be eaven. If the belt goes to one side they are not allgned. This takes some time and patience. Let me know if I can help further ruclips.net/video/DcjZGXPMq4c/видео.html
The fan on the motor of my treadmill makes a loud noise, how do I stop this?
I am not sure what you mean by fan. There is a fan type wheel on the motor. I recommend lubrication and cleaning. How long have you had the treadmill? How long has it been making that noise?
I got an Eo2 message. I think the motor is dead. Which is a bit of a shame. It made two soft popping sounds & then. Nothing other than an E02 message.No smoke.
Thanks for watching, I am so sorry to hear that. With the treadmill unplugged and if you feel comfortable to do so, check the fuse. It is supposed to blow before the motor. I can't recall the rating but it is a fuse similar to a car fuse. In the 4:51 minute market in the video , you can see the blue fuse located next to the capacitor with the orange sticker. That black piece does hold a charge but the blue fuse next to it should come out. if the wire inside appears to be broken, then that is the fix. you may also want to see what caused the issue, if it was pushing the motor too hard, was the machine lubricated. If that is not it, it could be the motor like you said. I would contact the manufacturer for service and or replacement parts. I hope that helps. If you have more questions I will be happy to try to answer them.
I tried turning on the treadmill and it just shows “E07”. Do you know how to fix this? Please help me
You probably already figured it out but just in case, the safety lock needs to be engaged.
I get asked this one a lot. 07 means the red safety square is not installed. This device needs to be installed even if the treadmill is ran with the bar in the down position. The concept is for you to have the cord strapped to you..if you fall you will pull it our from under the bar and it will stop. Let me know if that helps.
Sadly mine got delivered and never turned on, the power switch toggle was wiggly sadly
You said, the switch wiggles? This looks like it could have been damaged in shipping. I would contact Amazon or whoever you bought it for. The issue definitely can be fixed but, it depends on what solution is proposed by the person who sold it to you. Good luck, keep me posted and let me know if I can help.
What if the display turns on and remote works but when you push the button it doesn't do anything ?
I would check the battery on the remote.
I applied Lubricant on the treadmill as directed now I get an E05 notice..
There are a couple of things this could be. The easiest is. Did you check the position of the magnet on the breakaway kit? The red safety clip? If it is not installed it will display that. Second is the breaker..shown in my videos and if that is the case the belt may be too tight.
I have error code E05 and I don’t know what to do please help
Is there any obstruction under the treadmill that would prevent it from turning? This could be even thick carpet.
How loud is it running. That is what 99% people want to know.
I compared several models before I chose this one. Some were downright frightening and in some scenarios, I was like hell no. The best answer that I can give you is that you can hear me talk on my adjustments videos while it is running and I don't have to yell. I also enjoy watching tv while I walk on mine. I can have those at a normal volume and still hear it fine
I walk on mine about 3 hours a day and it smells like it's burning. We lubricated and it was good for a day and smelled again today.
I had the same issue, I am doing a through cleaning on mine right now. It could be the small belt but, at this point I am not sure. As far as time spent on it, I did speak to the manufacturer and they said 30 minutes to an hour. Congrats for hitting it that hard and really working out but, I am not sure if this type of treadmill can stand up to that.

Like I said in the previous comment, first wow on your effort for a better you! That is awesome. Do you run or walk? I am investigating that burning smell, I did a super cleaning around the motor and the dust, I could not find any cause of the smell. It could be the motor may not be up to that much of a workout. The company did say 30 minutes to an hour.
@@Rudyworld I walk about 2mph because I'm working at the same time. They have never responded.
@@Huxtonsgigi I have the same issue. Mine now smells at roughly the 30 minute mark, after heavy use. I've lubed it as well. The smell is coming from the front, the motor. I think that frankly this wasn't really built to last, as it were. If I find a fix, besides buying a better model from a better company, I'll let you know. These underdesk treadmills are must haves.
Mine stared to smell today. Now it will turn on but not run
That is the problem I had with mine. Wondering if there’s a video on how to check the motor belt and adjust if needed?
