Would be interested to hear from those who used 100% silicon oil on an ICON branded treadmill and if they have any longterm problems.

Belt was still dragging on treadmill. Did not help. According to information the belt supplied was to not need lubrication during it life span..

I use only the Icon brand belt lubricant as it is the same as what they use at the factory before shipping. If I'm not mistaken, the company advises against the use of silicon oil. I have no problem using the Icon brand belt lubricant.

There isn't anything special about this. It is a spray bottle of lubricant and a application sponge that is basically a foam sponge around a piece of plastic shaped like a long ruler. As long as you can slip the applicator under the belt to apply the lubricant it will work. Whether or not it will improve the performance of your treadmill is another question.

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 had to treat mine on a weekly basis for the first couple of months, make sure you are doing both sides and the edges. I also use the Emmet's Elixir-expensive but worth it. Now I oil the board about once a month, if that, and it has stayed very smooth. I did find that putting the oil on then placing plastic wrap on top of the board overnight or while I was away for the day seemed to make the board take the oil better. Just wipe off the excess and you're back in business. I love this board and wish I had bought one a long time ago!

I have their ProForm brand treadmill which is oil-based lubricant. Purchase it back in 2009 in England

All I can tell you is that this is the specific lubricant specified for my Horizon treadmill. I can't imagine Horizon recommending a lubricant that would damage their treadmill. My package is exactly as pictured above and it works as it should for my treadmill. tip: to see exactly how to apply, look up lubricating instructions for your treadmill on Youtube. It's an excellent how-to source.

I looked up the vitalizer compared to the ib3 chi Energizer and it makes similar claims but doesn't promote the fish movement. There were also warnings not to buy imitation products. My healthcare professional SPECIFICALLY recommended the Original ib3 Chi Energizer which I think is the bomb. Good luck!

There are silicone products made for lubing treadmills. I use one about every month. Because it's hard to get far under the belt with a spray, I got an applicator which fits between the belt and the board. Spray also wastes a lot.

I owned this treadmill for a period of time and had it plugged into a dedicated 15A outlet.....never had a problem with it.

This is silicone and it also worked on my older treadmill. I bought new treadmill thought old was done for but silicone worked

The lubricant I receive with the treadmill was gease in a small plastic tube. I used the treadmill for about 18 months before it indicated that I should lubricate the deck. Once I used the lubricant Sole provided, I followed the instruction manual and reordered the lubricant from Lube-N-Walk. I expected a lubricant similar to the one that came with the machine but received a small bottle of liquid (maybe an oil) that I was to use every month. I did not like the comments I read regarding the Lube-N-Walk product and decided to look elsewhere for a grease-like lubricant. I have not used the Lube-N-Walk liquid. I do not want to use a lubricant monthly when I did not have to initially. The lubricant I receive with the treadmill was gease in a small plastic tube.

I had the same issue. I put a couple of drops of silicone oil on the wheel as they suggested and this is working so far.

A. Hoffman - will you please explain your claim of the Omegawise Krill oil being a terrible product which should be avoided at all costs. It seems a bit trite to make such a strong statement with no explanation.

I do not recommend this poor quality product. I ordered pink and received box marked white treadmill so did not open. After waiting for pink to be shipped the pin would not fit so I could not use it. It also had oil on treadmill and seemed to have been a used one. After waiting more time for new pin to be shipped I opened the white box to try that pin and it fit. But with all the trouble I just kept the used one but it is not a very good treadmill. The company was not interested in my complaint or at least they did not respond to it other than saying they would forward to manager. Flimsy loud and lubricant shows thru the pink Don't buy it.

I have not had any problems and have been using for years. Spray it on and leave for about 15 min, followed by clean water spray to rinse. I have used on aluminum and have not seen any adverse affects. If I remember correctly, Oil Eater is bio-degradable.

Christopher, I would liken this treadmill at just slightly less than the ones I used to use at the County Recreation Center. I am 5'9 and 200 and have been using this thing to walk 4 miles per day at 15 minute miles five days a week. I keep the belt lubricated with silicone like the manual says and have had zero problems with it. Everything works today the same as it has for the past two years. This has been a quality piece of equipment that is built very well. I can't see that you would have a problem with it at all. Hope this answers your question. Please feel free to contact me if you have anymore.

I have thrown away this treadmill. It generated a loud noise after less than one year usage. The company refused to fix my problem. Sorry that I am of no help here.
