How do you other owners apply the lubricant? The plastic edges cover the running surface so I can't lift it up to spray underneath.

I raise the treadmill into the storage position and spray from underneath. I pull down on the belt and give it a squirt from each side. Then I manually rotate the belt a few feet and repeat 3 or 4 times. Hopefully the lubricant is getting where it needs to be.

I used the Lube N-walk treadmill lubrication kit that you can buy on Amazon. Very satisfied with the results.

I try to follow the instruction on page 40 of the owners manual: " ... accomplished by folding the treadmill and applying the silcone to the back of the belt from each back corner. Spray he silicone down and across the belt from each corner. Rotate the belt 1/2 of the circumference and repeat from each corner." What I do is raise the running surface to the upright storage position, then on the underside VERY lightly pull the belt away from the panel so I can get the nozzle of the spray lubricant just inside and spray down and across. Hope that helps. It's a great machine.

l put Vasaline on cone end to make it slide on. easier to point where you twist it to lock in place. Regards, Don&#9786;.

I sealed mine with a spray sealer in advance. I think paint maybe your only solution

It is a little hard to close. It does get a bit easier with use. I haven't tried lubricating it, but maybe I will. It never was really an issue for me. One thin I noticed is that you have to make sure that you unlock the foot rest first. I sometimes forget to do that and that will keep it from closing.

I apologize for this late reply. I spay the area that I can reach ( my car, it is everywhere but bottom) - it seems to be good enough, to still work well. I have sprayed it on a car where it was hard to reach the top/bottom - but if you have the time you could spray, then move your car forward a couple of times.? Hope this is useful. I live in Minnesota and think it is a great product! :)

Be sure that the friction points aren't sticky. A little light oil at all friction points can help a lot. You might need to do this more often if the friction points get wet, accumulate debris or get dusty.

My husband says get a penetrating oil, WD40 is only a coating, he says a penetrating oil is used to loosen up frozen bolts. they sell it at home depot.He said that the lubricant the shop put on the multi -tool has probably dried up.He's a smart cookie, I'd take his advice :)

I have the same issue and don't think the plastic can be removed. I'd love to hear if someone has a suggestion for cleaning this area out as well.

Did you remove the plastic that covers the sticky area? I have a 4runner and not sure how alike dash is but i use 1 right now thats been on weeks. Also make sure area is clean of armorall or other detailing products.

Barbara, I usually don't answer a question with a question but this time I will start out with one. How many years do you think you will have the Montana? This Lubricant is that good and goes a long, long way. I wouldn't suggest spraying it on directly but onto a rag and wiping it on giving the slide rubber a thin coating. Hope this answers your question.

Spray the gun with oil, then wrap it in kitchen plastic wrap. I used to make holsters, and this works fine.

I have used wd40 ,and a liteweight machine oil and had no problems any lube is better then no lube have always applied wd40 to my guns to keep protected

I see the wd40 solution here and its really not that complicated, clean it with a soft cloth, wipe it out and use a tiny bit of Burt's Bees wax, or chap stick to lubricate it. Just lightly rub it onto the nylon bearings with your finger. Works better, its easier and non toxic. I did my red ball about a year ago although Ive wiped it out several times since I still haven't had to re lubricate it. Now I need to replace mine because the left click is not responding well.

Carefully use a product called; "Goo Gone" in a spray bottle. Spray it and let it soak up (on its side) for several minutes so you don't scratch it. It should slide right off!

The other answers just about cover it. Oil Dri is a great product. I have used oil dri for many years. I have three cars in a three car garage. Each car has one underneath and it works perfectly. I would not try it outside.

AFAIK there is no need for lubrication, none is supplied, none is available to purchase as an extra, and the instructions simply say wash under cold water, carefully use tissue etc to dry the excess, then let it air dry... hth

You are not doing anything wrong.....hhhmmmm. If this stuff is not working then I recommend you go and get these two items....carburetor cleaner OR WD-40. I had a few spots that were tough to get off on my car and the carburetor cleaner took it right now. Oh, and it won't damage any painted or plastic areas. If you don't feel comfortable with that try the WD-40. Let it set for a couple of minutes and then try to wipe off. I hope this helps!
