Step 1: Turn off the treadmill, but don’t forget to unplug it from the wall, as well. You don’t want the machine to have any access to electricity.

Where to put lubricant on a treadmill deck?

Squirt out about a half ounce on each side of the deck. Look at the wear marks from your shoes on the walking belt, you want to apply this lube on the deck, under those wear marks. No matter which type of lubricant your machine requires, do NOT allow any lube to land on any exposed surfaces, especially one you may walk on.

Can a treadmill belt be used without lubricant?

Absolutely not. Belt and deck surfaces are engineered to work with the specific lubricants mentioned above, nothing else. Using an unapproved lubricant can deteriorate the two surfaces resulting in what we have taken to calling, “cotton candy belt.”

How often should I oil my treadmill belt?

A treadmill belt can crack and become brittle if it is not oiled, and we recommend oiling it every 150 miles. If you are not using your treadmill for extended periods of time, then every 3-6 months is also a good practice.
