Where do you get a foam wand?

This is actually very poor advice.. the lubricant is supposed to be applied to the deck, not the belt. Once a year for a silicone based lubricant is harly enough. Even if it just sits there with little to no use, the lubricant will evaporate in about 2 months or less… lubricate the center 10” of the deck every 30-40 hours of use. Lubricate Sparingly. A 1 oz bottle should last you two years. second point you make has good intentions, but is also poor advice. Yes, You should clean under the belt and motor cover periodically. But you should not use a vacuum near the control board or electrical components. The carbon inside the motor will also destroy a vacuum cleaner. Best way to clean out under the motor cover is with compressed air. Be sure to wear a mask and safety glasses when doing so.

​@@champspec: What are you talking about? He literally says use the wand BETWEEN the deck and the belt. And carbon build-up is going to ruin your vacuum cleaner? GTFO 🤦

Except when their advice ends up destroying your investment... Ive tried to make my voice loud and clear on here, in hopes it will stop more people from ruining their treadmills. RJ could have a nice helpful video if he updated it with proper advice. Sooner or later the wrong person is going to wreck their treadmill and may, in fact, bring a case to his door.

I'm about to get a Treadmill and it arrives on 12/12. Please, what's wrong so I don't mess up mines?

@@champspec your voice is definitely not loud and clear. I could not even find another post by you in the comments section. Instead of spreading fear about this video, why don't you try explaining the right way to do it. This smells like an alternate youtube channel trying to corall traffic.

Ben Wall there should be a handful of comments that I left on this video explaining the proper procedure. Apparently Sole had taken the initiative to update their owners manual.... the amount of Lube to apply can vary slightly. Factors would he the brand and material of the belt, the size of the deck and belt, the climate and location of the treadmill, and obviously the amount of use the treadmill gets. From a general standpoint, i think about 1/4 of an ounce of silicone would be a good starting point if the unit has never been lubricated. Newer belts and decks have less wear, so they need less lube. One key point is that you are actually to be lubricating the Deck, not the belt. The belt will retain some of the lube, though. No way to avoid it. If you see the belt getting saturated with wet spots, you’re probably using too much lube or the belt is worn out. If its a brand new belt that this is happening on, you’ve probably got yourself more of an expensive clothes hanger than an exercise machine. Best of Luck!

@@champspec hey man. just read your comment. I was surprised that he used the whole bottle too. My instructions say "measure 18 inchs from the edge of the moter cover, reach under the belt approximately 4-6 inch for one edge. Squirt a line of lubricant about 1/8 inch wide and 15 inchs long in a "s" pattern perpendicular to the mother cover" - didn't plan on using a bottle. just a squirt. To clarify, the rest was ok? the way he loosened the belt and stuff? I need to lube it and nervous I am gonna misalign the belt and not be able to straighten it.

RJ The Bike Guy My noise is in the front. It’s really loud.

May I want to running macin belt

Where did you put the lube? Hopefully you found it.

Yep.

I hope you got a Sole! I've had mine 18 months and love it.

Aaron G Isn’t he doing that with the t-shirt?

@@AttilatheThrilla he cleaned only one half of the total lenghth of the belt.
