Welcome to 1st World Problems'r' Us
More treadmill problems, or the same one but finally had the spoons to faff with getting the belt lined up.
So belt scrapping noise is not because of belt problems (lubricated it previously) but because of whatever's wrong inside the motor end (inside the plastic cover at the front) as that is where it is coming from.
Could just be an unfortunate snag of a cable or just it's so shit it's breaking down from the start 🤷.
It's not my weight as it's rated for a lot (I mean a lot) heavier than me, yet it only seems to scrape when I'm using it.I think eBay's return window is closed so am stuck with it till it snaps or breaks down, whichever happens first.
Until then, even with my headphones on & video or music audio is playing that ssssssuuuu... Silence... ssssussssuuusssssuuuuu... , sound is going to pull me right out of my zone, assuming I ever enter it in the first place 😒.
It's really off putting, as I know I need more exercise but going outside isn't always that easy for me, that's why I got a treadmill in the £100 - £200 bracket, so I could just get on & enjoy exercise & make it enjoyable with a show episode, a walking video or eventually a movie.Right, unless there's an easy fix I don't know about for this problem, I shall use treadmill time to work on going insane 🤪 as that might as well happen.
Right, where's my brunch at?
