Great advice! I just purchased the Horizon T303 and love it. I bought it to replace a Nordic Track T series that I used for almost 10 years and put 5,000 miles on. I would suggest to anyone that regardless of the treadmill they purchase that they go ahead and buy a mat to put it on. Over time, things happen with the treadmill sitting in one place and it could scratch, discolor, or damage the floor if a mat is not used. A huge mat specifically for treadmills is around $40 and worth the investment. My old Nordic Track actually leaked grease and it was difficult to clean up. This happened due to old age and use. Also, if you perspire a lot, be sure to wipe your treadmill dry after each work out. Sweat will corrode any and all metal parts (the frame) if left for any duration. If you use some kind of wet cleaner to get rid of germs after your workout, also be sure to wipe the frame clean or else it will eventually begin to rust. I learned all of this the hard way!

Thank for for creating this video. I've been asking my boyfriend for months to oil the treadmill and I'm still waiting. So I've decided to do it myself and found your video. Ive bought the oil, tool and follow along. It was so easy to do with your instructions. Thank you. You made my day.

Hi there, do you know how to save user preset workout on this model ? Many thanks.

I have the same treadmill, I hear a low ticking/ thuttering noise near the motor rpm disk and it increases with the speed. Any ideas?

I also noticed my motor belt not running belt is not aligned with each end of the posts that make it spin. Did you notice anything when u opened ur motor up ?

what about alignment? mine needs to move right not sure which bolt to turn

How do you get the lube reset button to shut off on this model?? I lubed it up last week and it's still on??

mine is rocking on one side how can i fix it so it fits flat on the floor?

How often do I lube it? And when I tighten the belt down I make it as tight as I can

How do you kno how tight to put it after you lube it?

Thanks

I have the exact same model. Mines stopped working a few days after I put lubricant on the belt. The screen won’t come on.

I have had my horizon treadmill for 2 months and the belt all the sudden isn’t moving. I don’t think I even hear the motor. Any ideas?

Great videos! Have you updated your firmware yet? I’m having some issues with that.

Hi, how is the treadmill holding up in 2024?

I just bought the same one(or similar? 7.0at) and totally messed up while lubing it- forgot how many turns I did & adjusting it made it worse..now the belts way into the right side 😭😭

Thanks for this. Quick question, do you have to lube it when your first get it? The manual doesn’t mention it but just wondering.

I just got one of these models. I lubricated the belt to the best of my ability and tried to center it. The belt makes a swishing/shhh/woosh sound when you walk on it but is quiet with no weight on it ?? Any thoughts or recommendations?? Or is it normal ?? Sometimes treadmills at the gym make it but I haven’t used my horizon yet.

Hi, just a question about your floor. Is this plank or laminate? We have a Horizon treadmill but it's on carpet in our bonus room. We want to get new flooring but I was worried about the type. Have you had any issues with the floor while running on your treadmill? Thanks.

Does it happen only when walking on it? My 3 day old 7.0AT does have kind of a rattling noise only on walking at any speed or even moving side to side on step saddle when it’s running. No noise at all running it - speeding up and down or inclining and declining when it’s running. No noise on bouncing up and down when machine is switched off.

I have a problem when doing 8:10 like when i put it in and try to turn it the T shape handle is stuck and cant move clockwise or counter clockwise any suggestions?

If it does not, you may just need to tweak the belt a little and adjust it until the noise goes away.

Why so noisy heavy metal. Gosh.

I would spread the word about the Horizon parent company. They have horrible customer service. Apparently they laid off a bunch of people during quarantine. They do not return phone calls. This company is the worst. Please stay away.
