After several hours of tinkering and googling, this has been the *only* comprehensive and straightforward tutorial on this kind of maintenance I could find. The only thing it could have used was a tip on how to know whether you've added too little vs too much lubricant under the belt. Thanks very much!
Got a free treadmill on marketplace and the guy had the back roller completely loosened up on one side trying to “figure out the issue”. A little bit of lube on the tread and deck and opened up to check the drive belt and the motor was loose in the mount and the drive belt could twist almost 360. Thank you for a quick and to the point video that worked perfect!!!
Brother you probably saved my treadmill. Mine was slipping badly and I kept tightening the tread-belt bolts in the back. Saw your vid and although the drive-belt could turn about 90 deg it was off by a thread and not quite seating. I loosened it a bit to move the belt and then tightened it well per your specs and BINGO it no longer slips. Can't thank you enough. I probably would have blown something out with as tight as the back was. Great video!!!
You can see that the guy know his stuff! Thanks, shame i hadnt seen this video earlier. The treadmill repair guy i've called of course wont tell any of that because he earns repairing this stuff.Glad that you shared your knowledge of the topic.
Joe, I wanted to thank you for saving me from destroying another running belt. I put a new belt on and tightened it up, but it was still slipping. I adjusted the motor location and was able to stop the slipping. Thank you!
Yes. This. Thank you for breaking down legit troubleshooting. Just spent an hour trolling through videos and forums for this exact information. 🙌 Clear, concise, and genuinely helped
I maintain an industrial cutter, drill and printing presses but I've been too afraid to dig into my slipping treadmill until this morning. Thank you for the informative video (all of them). I'm going to fix my buddy up today!
I was reading the comments thinking I would be the only person this did not work for. I am so thankful for your help. It worked perfectly. I was thinking I was gonna have to dish out so much$$$. Thank you. AMAZING!!!
That’s so helpful and great simple explanation. Im giving away my moms old treadmill she hasn’t used in years and it had been working fine then when I fired it up to check it when giving it away the tread stopped when we stood on it..I lubed it and it got a lot better but still glitching and slowing. Thanks for the other suggestions. There is a senior in need of this tread mill and Im determined to fix it and get it to her.
I have had my E2500 for like 20 years. It has never been lubricated. I lubed it. It's smooth now. Still need to go under the hood. I had no idea how to tell if its over tight. Your the best. V
that is exactly the issue, I have noise when I run the treadmill (Superfit), that sounds like a wheel turning, louder when I walk on it. Occasionally it feels "bumpy". I've wondered if I over lubricated it, but I'm not certain that tightening the belt is the issue. Two people I know who talk of having done that said what ever the problem was, they made it worse adjusting the tension on the belt. I hoped to find some videos that demonstrated what noises mean, the belt looks straight, but becoming loud enough to be annoying and causing some concern of more damage happening, sounds like it is making noise at both rollers. I guess I have to make the space and get up the nerve to try to open the motor area... great video, thank you
Some things he didn't mention. I've been in the repair business for 17 years. 1/2 oz of lubricant every 2 - 3 months of use is a good amount. Over lubrication causes slipping. I've had customer's putting 1 oz or more on and it leaches into the top of the walking belt. It also squeezes out a mist into the motor cavity as it goes around the front roller. The air current from the motor fan will mist lube into your motor belt. At this point you will need to take motor belt out and soak the motor belt in dishwashing soap and water,dry and make sure both pulleys are cleaned of all lube. Paper towel with the dishwashing solution helps. If your walking belt absorbed too much lube you may have to replace it too as you may repeat your problem. Do not put lube on like motor oil. A thin glaze is good. One other thing to note is the motor belt wears out at some time and that causes slipping no matter how tight your motor belt is. The teeth on your pulleys are 60 degrees approximately so a lot of your power comes from the edges of the grooves. When the grooves wear wider or you can see the nylon cord in the bottom of the grooves or sections of the motor belt broken out its time for a new motor belt. One last thing. Lube is most important in the area you use, not so much the 2" outside edges where you could accumulate an excess over time.
What a fantastic video, thank you so much for producing it and sharing it with us! I’ll certainly be going to you all for parts and service in the future.
Nice, was oiling the treadbelt with the factory lubricant and already had the hood off to clean out the dust with an air can and vaccuum. Checked the belt since it's right there. I'd say it goes more than 45° but not near 90° should be good. Thanks for the info.
this video helps, and the previous one who said to tighten the belt helps too. it means there is a problem occurring from somewhere we just need to figure out what exactly it is ,before starting to fix it from every possible way.
Wow, huh. I am using a treadmill that had 0 maintenance done on it for years before I started using it. So I am trying to solve a creaking noise... I lubed the belt for the first time in its life... just cleaned out around the motor housing.. cat hair and belt shavings.. Thinking it is just an unevenly tightened running belt. 🤔 Going to check the drive belt now.. the treadmill does slip.. but the running belt seems plenty snug. Thx, this will make my gaming experience a little safer. 🤣
best video I've seen on this issue. Thank you. I was thinking it was my rollers, belt, treadbelt, or motor. working on a freemotion xtr or its clone the nordictrack c1500, nice to be able to properly diagnose the issue.
Glad we could help! If you ever need to speak with a technician about issues you're having, feel free to give our sister company, Fitness Graveyard, a call at 563-949-0799.
Got my new Horizon 7.0 a couple weeks ago. I tried using those bottles of silicone with the long tubes to lubricate the belt but I just didn't trust that that method was doing a good job. Man, that belt was tight right from the factory. Couldn't get my hand under the belt. Ran the treadmill for a couple weeks and have finally taken the covers off so I can do the job properly. I loosened the rear bolts and lost track of the number of turns. So, I loosened them fully. Finally got my hand under to spread some silicone lube. It just didn't feel like all the lubing I had done before was even there and I had used a lot. So I spread it around real well and then used a sponge on a stick tool full of lube to spread it around evenly. Moved the belt halfway around and spread some more. I even turned the sponge upside down and ran it on the underside of the belt. It was nice this way because I could make sure that the belt was exactly in the center. Now, I've got to tighten up the belt. Since the belt seemed too tight from the factory, I think I'll tighten the bolts only about 5 turns and try out the belt. Even at this point there isn't a lot of underhang on the bottom of the belt. From there, I'll go slowly until there are no slips or sticking.
Glad I found your video. I’m going to check the drive belt. But, I’ve lubricated my treadmill and cleaned it regularly but for some reason it gets out of alignment. I can adjust the belt to where it’s centered but once I step on to it it begins to drift to one side or another. Also depending on the speed, I can think it’s adjusted correctly but once I get up to running speed the belt will begin to rub the motor casing. Any ideas what I’m doing wrong?
This is super helpful. Showing me directionals of the 2 adjustments, as well as the lubrication importance helps. The amount of lubricant that came with my treadmill wasn't even enough to lubricate it once. I ordered some more
You are incorrect on the lubricant. The lube that came with your treadmill is more than enough to lube your treadmill more than a couple times. If you take advise from other videos on youtube, using FAR more lube than you need to, you will destroy your treadmill.
It was my drive belt! Thank you so much your expertise. I’m so glad I watched your video BEFORE I started messing with the running belt! I just wish you had explained further as to how to do that. Also how do you know how much lube is needed?
Great job on the video. I lubricated my belt as per the instructions on the treadmill lube box. Then I taken off the motor cover and vacuumed all the dust and stuff out. With the cover off I used the tread mill and it was still slipping. While I held the handles I pushed down on the belt while I was walking on it. I found the running belt would slip on the roller and the drive belt was good. I never have adjusted the tension on the running belt, but it looks good. I can only get my hand half way under the belt. I may give it a little time for the lube to soak into the belt and if it still slips maybe try another tube of lubricate?
I am loosing mind! We were given a nice proform treadmill and my husband had to disassemble it to move down stairs. NOW...we can't get the dang drive belt back on. Drive belts are from the devil and I need to know if there is a special tool that will stretch that sucker back on?
I have a 2450 nordedtrack treadmill, That has a 15° incline. I would like to take the cover off the motor area, so I can vacuum and check the belt tension. But I can't figure out how to get the cover off. I do not want to break the plastic. Can you help me please? Thanks
Good evening I have benefited greatly from your channel I bought a new belt and it fits very well. - The sound of the machine has improved The machine is not heating up - And we finished touching the electrode in the handle *I have two questions 1- After I installed the belt, I began to hear a sound as if it was the sound of wood. This is if I was running in front near the machine, but if I went back away from the machine, I did not hear the sound, and I made sure that the wood screws were tightened. Where does this sound come from? 2- My device is the F85, and I walk on it for a full hour between walking and running. Some of them told me that this burns the machine because the device cannot bear it, so what is correct?
Thank you so much. I learned a lot. Just a question: How to know if v-belt is over tight? mine is really tight and I don't know if I need to loose it a little bit.
Fanfreakingtastic! I've watched about 4 lube vids. All just a few minutes and all good. This vid added another element and also a quick catch. I'm helping a friend with her treadmill as its years old and (forever un-maintenanced and way past the warranty). Its her one exercise obsession that she uses everyday. She did not want to pay for out-of-warranty maintenance/repair cost, so she contacted me. Now that I know, I will pop the motor cover and inspect, determine and maintenance, or suggest her next step. You da man! (Can't believe how you just cut that well maintained runner. But hey, you know- I don't. I ain't gettin it twisted, ok? :-) 😁
I have brand new walking pad, but it's slipping/stopping on low pace. I lubricated it, but i'm not sure is it too tight the belt. What can i do? How tight the belt must be ? Do i have to be able to put my arm under the belt?
Thank you for taking the time to produce your excellent videos on maintaining a treadmill. I need your assistance. I have a Sole F80 and while I’m running (7MPH) or walking (4MPH) every now and then the treadmill will stop then speed up rapidly (Fast) and it will give me an Error Code 5 message on the screen. I’ve been thrown off the treadmill twice and I’m lucky it hasn’t caused me a serious injury. Do you have any idea what could be causing this happen? Thank you.
What’s the oil that you should use for the belt base the wood and should you lubricate anything else on the machine, including the motor area or the wheels that make the machine go higher and lower
This is a great video! I just bought a new treadmill but when the incline level is 10% or higher the belt keeps moving and accelerating like if my weight is too much. I tried lubricating the belt since the instruction manual said to do it before first use and I tried tightening or loosening at the rear to see if that would help but nothing. This would even happen if the treadmill is turned off. It would very easily move while me just putting a very little pressure while stepping on it.
WAG: One of the two belts are slipping. Motor drive belt inside means some handyman skills - if you check it you also could vacuum up any dust inside...

Bought a second hand reebok treadmill a week ago, £250, I kept sticking and slipping. Tightening the motor belt has stopped it, thanks man!🙌
Bravo Joe, straight to the point info. As a maintenance technician myself, I really appreciate a nicely done video. 👍👍
Followed your advice and successfully got my treadmill up and running..thankyou very much😊
After ruining a (rather old) belt, I'm glad I saw this. It will save me from doing the same to the new belt!
Most comprehensive yet compact guide to how you can look after your treadmill thanks 🙏🏼

I really don’t like to put comments but I had to put one This video really answer all my questions that I had about my treadmill
Thank you!!! I had it completely cranked. You saved me a future headache
Fantastic video. Thanks. The only thing missing was how to actually adjust the running motor if the belt was too loose
Treadmill heroes in name and reality it should be treadmill legends!.
Thankyou from Perth Western Australia
Thanks for the video! Mine was the drive belt, not the rollers, just as you suggested 👍🏼
Glad it helped!
i guess mine is drive bell， so even i am not step in, but just turn on , I can hear noise in the front of tread. I will try to open
Very precise and clear explanation of how everything works. Good job 👍
Great info to know as I just bought a treadmill and Im going to get at it.Thankyou for this awesome video,very thorough as well.Cheers!

Awesome vid and helped me figure out my drive belt on the motor was slipping.
That was a really good explanation on what to do.... Just purchased a used treadmill and want to be sure it's up to specs....thanx :)

@@rizuwan1244 without being there it's possible the motor belt needs replacing. Check the grooves to see if they are worn out
Hi, am wondering if graphite, would perhaps, be a better lube ...??
Fantastic explanation! Thank you.
Wow yeah totally guilty of over tightening - oops. What a clear explanation of everything thank you!
Best vid I've seen on this issue. Fast and straight to the point. Thanks.
Nice information, just bought my first running belt and figured I'd do some reading before putting it to use.
Thanks for the explanation, particularly on the motor/drive belt assembly. Great video!

Nicely explained. Much appreciated.
Great info and explanations. Thanks
My pleasure!
Good evening
I have benefited greatly from your channel
I bought a new belt and it fits very well.
- The sound of the machine has improved
The machine is not heating up
- And we finished touching the electrode in the handle
*I have two questions
1- After I installed the belt, I began to hear a sound as if it was the sound of wood. This is if I was running in front near the machine, but if I went back away from the machine, I did not hear the sound, and I made sure that the wood screws were tightened. Where does this sound come from?
2- My device is the F85, and I walk on it for a full hour between walking and running.
Some of them told me that this burns the machine because the device cannot bear it, so what is correct?
Thanks!!
Very much appreciated! Great tutorial!
Excellent video, thx so much for the detailed instruction!
You are the best. The explanation was so clear and I feel like so much less of an idiot trying to fix this thing haha thanks a bunch
Thank you!! Positive Vibes are always appreciated
excellent advise
Lots of helpful advice Thank You so much 😁

Now that I know, I will pop the motor cover and inspect, determine and maintenance, or suggest her next step. You da man!

I tried lubricating the belt since the instruction manual said to do it before first use and I tried tightening or loosening at the rear to see if that would help but nothing. This would even happen if the treadmill is turned off. It would very easily move while me just putting a very little pressure while stepping on it.
WAG: One of the two belts are slipping. Motor drive belt inside means some handyman skills - if you check it you also could vacuum up any dust inside...
