How frequently should I lubricate my NordicTrack treadmill?

For optimal performance and longevity of a NordicTrack treadmill, it is essential to regularly lubricate the walking belt. The manufacturer recommends lubricating the treadmill every three months, or after every 40 hours of use, whichever comes first. However, if the treadmill is used very frequently or is subjected to high-intensity workouts, checking the lubrication monthly is advisable. Always use the specific type of lubricant recommended by NordicTrack; using an improper substance can damage the belt and void the warranty. Before applying new lubricant, it's also crucial to clean any excess dust or debris from the belt and deck area to ensure smooth operation and prevent any abrasive damage to the running surface.
