Introducing SmartAdjust™ for Your Treadmill: iFIT’s New Personalized Workout Experience

Like your vehicle, kitchen appliances, and most everything else, maintenance is key to keeping them running smoothly and getting the most value out of them. Your NordicTrack treadmill is no different, requiring annual care to extend its lifespan, run safely, and enhance your workout experience. Outside of keeping your treadmill area tidy, one of the best things you can do for your machine is belt maintenance. Here’s how to keep your treadmill running smoothly and safely. Lubrication: Keep your treadmill running smoothly Making sure your treadmill’s belt is lubricated is surprisingly easy. The Treadmill Lubrication FAQ has all the answers you need, including how to check if it's time to lubricate the belt and the step-by-step process. Even if you don’t use your treadmill daily, annual lubrication is recommended. Look for signs of wear and tear Make it a point to check your treadmill’s belt monthly for signs of wear before they become bigger problems. Here's what to look for: Fraying edges: Any loose or frayed edges could indicate wear.Tearing: Check thoroughly for tears along the edges or across the belt surface.Seam separation: Inspect the seam joining the belt ends for signs of puckering or visual separation.Belt alignment: Ensure that the belt gap on both sides is even. Misalignment can cause damage and reduce performance.Motor hood inspection: Look under the motor hood for any black residue. This residue can occur when an improperly aligned belt rubs against the deck rail. If your belt shows signs of these issues, it might need replacement to maintain proper function and safety.
