I am hoping that other Sole treadmill users might be able to help me.
My Sole F 80 treadmill has been performing inconsistently in recent weeks. During the first 30 minutes of use it will occasionally slow and stop. If I push against the track with my feet to keep it going it will slowly recover and go back to speed. After about 30 minutes it seems to run fine, with no further interruptions.
When it first started I had a technician check the machine out and he could find nothing wrong with it. I siliconed the deck and it seemed to be ok for a while.
This does not happen when my wife uses the machine. She is a bit smaller (130ish) than me - 155lbs. If I turn the machine on and let it run, it will go on without stopping.
If I jack up the incline it also seems to run fine.
My sense is that there must be some kind of sensor that is reacting to the pounding of my running.
Does anyone have any thoughts?
