Thank you for this video. I recently lubed up my f63 treadmill, following the instructions in the manual, but it still didn't run right. I followed your instructions, and the treadmill now runs OK. What I didn't know is you had to loosen the belt. If you don't, you can't lift the belt enough to apply the lube. But what really helped was my treadmill didn't lock in the upright position. And, I am including this for anybody else with the same problem. The little catch in the bottom rail didn't pop out through the hole and hold the deck in an upright and locked position. I didn't realize you also had to lube the bottom rail. I did that, and worked the deck up and down to spread out the lube. The little catch still didn't pop out, so I touched the catch, ever so slightly, with a flat head screwdriver to loosen it up. It popped out right away, so now I can fold my treadmill again. I think the key is to keep the bottom rail lubed, as a preventive measure. Thanks again, for a clear and easy to understand video.

According to the owner's manual all you have to do is lift up a little bit on each side with the belt still fully tensioned and put a 15-in s-shaped pattern about 4 to 6 in on each side and then walk on it for 5 minutes. They do not suggest loosening the belt in the manual

Thank you for your clear explanation. I have a SOLE F80 - but the principle is the same. After greasing the treadmill, it works much quieter. I ran mine 95 minutes before lubrication. Several comments. 1. Follow the instructions in your treadmill instruction manual to reset the timer for lubrication. It is a very fiddly procedure but it works with patience. This timer number is the one that you see when you start up your treadmill. 2. There are two screws at the end of the treadmill. The one with the Philips screw is for removing the cover. I had to remove the cover in order for the Allen wrench to fit, as the Allen screw was partially covered by the cover. The one that uses the Allen wrench is for loosening the treadmill belt. This is the one you need in order to loosen the belt. 3. I held up the treadmill belt part (the part that goes up and down) while unscrewing and screwing in the Allen wrench bolt. I found that this made it easier to see what I was doing. 4.. The video suggested lubricating the two parts under the belt first. These two parts are used to raise and lower the treadmill. Great idea to lubricate this first. 5. All in all, a great video. Good luck with your running. Enjoy!!! 6. BTW, it took me 1.5 hours to lubricate the treadmill belt. This is my first time to do this procedure.

Hambo04 .... hey! Sorry for the delayed reply. I apply the lube on the “deck” because I find it easier to smear the lube in a more uniform and even.

You don't need to lube the lift on the back of the treadmill. It's not recommended by Sole. You also don't use a whole tube or smear it with your hand. It doesn't hurt anything but walking on the treadmill for 5 minutes after distributes the lube.

The lube sold by Sole is in a tube and thicker where every other treadmill lube is a thin liquid silicone in a bottle. I wonder why that is? It seems like the viscosity in the tube would be too thick to be absorbed into the belt's cotton lining.
