The belt on my Nordic Track C2255 treadmill started bogging down the other day while I was running on it. I took the cover off of the motor area and can see that the drive belt is frayed. There was black "shavings" from it all over the floor. I have ordered a new drive belt, but I need instructions on how to replace it. I have searched YouTube, but none of them are Nordic Track treadmills. Can anyone advise?
The black shavings are normal on a treadmill. It may be that you need to tighten the walking belt. Try tightening the two bolts on the rear of the machine that hold the rear roller in place. You need to tighten each of them the exact same amount or you'll throw off the alignment. Tighten them three turns of the wrist and see if that helps. If not, try three more turns. If still nothing then replace the drive belt. That can be a real undertaking and you might want to consider contacting a professional.

Hi again, OK thanks, The belt slides on a track and can get debris or other things that stick and is probably causing the squealing. There are belt cleaners and dressings and lubricants but the best place and the best product for your treadmill can be found at this site:
www.TreadmillDoctor.com They offer many bits of advice and how to on many different kinds of treadmills and can tell you how to clean and apply their product. Good Luck to you, this should Fixya!
SOURCE: my nordic track treadmill won't decline
My wife had the same problem with her treadmill. I turned the beast on it's side, and unscrewed the plastic casing that houses the motor, computer, and all the electronics to the treadmill. I unplugged the incline/decline motor. Then on the bottom of the treadmill the long threaded rod that causes the incline needed to be moved. So I unbolted it from the catch, and manually screwed the rod back in with a wrench. Now the treadmill works fantastically, of course the incline/decline mechanism has been disabled, but I would rather have a treadmill with the incline disabled than have one always on 100% incline. Hope you found this helpful :)

Unplug the unit remove the motor shroud inspect the drive belt if the rubber feel slick then my recommendation is to replace the drive belt. Adjusting the drive belt may take care of the problem if you do not need to adjust it too tight. If you choose to do the adjusting and feel you have adjusted the running belt thinking it would resolve the slipping, then back the tension down until it the running belt is slipping then adjust until the slippage is resolved.

I can't help with the manual. But, if you reach under the area where the readout is, push up on the cord or any of the opening underneath the display will pop out. You should be able to find the battery compartment. The unit uses 2 AA batteries. If you find a manual, let me know.
Thanks.
