Treadmill glitching !
Trish 19/01/2026 - 10:05 AM
Not sure what category to put this in other than "handyman services", however, I went to lube thr running belt under my treadmill (as it hasn't been used in about 4 months), so when I went to re-tighten it , then try it, it stalls after walking for less than 15 seconds or so. I'm not sure if I'm over-tightening it or it's too loose or what not? Also, the incline is not working. What could possibly have gone wrong? Ive been trying to re-align it/centering the running belt as well as adjusting the tension, by both loosening and tightening alternatively, yet it still has the same problem. Can Anyone shed light on this?
