How do I properly lubricate a NordicTrack elliptical machine?

To properly lubricate a NordicTrack elliptical machine, one must first consult the user manual for any model-specific instructions. Typically, one should turn off and unplug the machine to ensure safety before lubricating. Identify the pivot points where parts of the elliptical move relative to each other. Using a high-quality silicone-based lubricant (as recommended by most elliptical manufacturers), apply a small amount directly to the moving parts, such as the rollers, hinges, and connections. Be sure to wipe away any excess lubricant to avoid attracting dust and debris. After applying lubricant, plug the machine back in and move the pedals around to distribute the lubricant evenly. Regular maintenance includes checking for squeaks or stiffness in movement, which can indicate when additional lubrication may be needed.
