After several hours of tinkering and googling, this has been the only comprehensive and straightforward tutorial on this kind of maintenance I could find. The only thing it could have used was a tip on how to know whether you've added too little vs too much lubricant under the belt. Thanks very much!

This is the most informative treadmill belt adjustment video I have found. Thank you so much.

Got a free treadmill on marketplace and the guy had the back roller completely loosened up on one side trying to “figure out the issue”. A little bit of lube on the tread and deck and opened up to check the drive belt and the motor was loose in the mount and the drive belt could twist almost 360. Thank you for a quick and to the point video that worked perfect!!!

I was reading the comments thinking I would be the only person this did not work for. I am so thankful for your help. It worked perfectly. I was thinking I was gonna have to dish out so much$$$. Thank you. AMAZING!!!

Bought a second hand reebok treadmill a week ago, £250, I kept sticking and slipping. Tightening the motor belt has stopped it, thanks man!🙌

Joe, I wanted to thank you for saving me from destroying another running belt. I put a new belt on and tightened it up, but it was still slipping. I adjusted the motor location and was able to stop the slipping. Thank you!

Followed your advice and successfully got my treadmill up and running..thankyou very much😊

Most comprehensive yet compact guide to how you can look after your treadmill thanks 🙏🏼

After ruining a (rather old) belt, I'm glad I saw this. It will save me from doing the same to the new belt!

Brother you probably saved my treadmill. Mine was slipping badly and I kept tightening the tread-belt bolts in the back. Saw your vid and although the drive-belt could turn about 90 deg it was off by a thread and not quite seating. I loosened it a bit to move the belt and then tightened it well per your specs and BINGO it no longer slips. Can't thank you enough. I probably would have blown something out with as tight as the back was. Great video!!!

I maintain an industrial cutter, drill and printing presses but I've been too afraid to dig into my slipping treadmill until this morning. Thank you for the informative video (all of them). I'm going to fix my buddy up today!

That’s so helpful and great simple explanation. Im giving away my moms old treadmill she hasn’t used in years and it had been working fine then when I fired it up to check it when giving it away the tread stopped when we stood on it..I lubed it and it got a lot better but still glitching and slowing. Thanks for the other suggestions. There is a senior in need of this tread mill and Im determined to fix it and get it to her.

Bravo Joe, straight to the point info. As a maintenance technician myself, I really appreciate a nicely done video. 👍👍

My treadmill came out of the box tight as a fiddlestring. Backed it off three turns and it works fine.
-
Wow yeah totally guilty of over tightening - oops. What a clear explanation of everything thank you!

A better preventive maintenance video can’t exist. Very informative!
