Question: Have a Proform 520X treadmill - walking belt jerks while walking and running?


Question Description:
It was given to me a few months ago asn has had this problem since we got it. When you walk or run on it, the walking belt jerks occasionally. What could this be? It doesn't do it when no one is on it, and speed doesn't seem to matter. I really need to get this repaired as I can't afford a new one and really can't afford a gym membership right now. My neighborhood also isn't the best for walking at the times I have available for exercise. I have walked on it a few times like it is, but it hurt my knees and I am afraid I will end up falling on it or something if I don't get it fixed. Does anyone know what it could be and about how much the repair might be?

Answer#1: A gym membership would probably be cheaper. Repairs are really costly. Check to see what the manufacturer warranty is with proform or the company you got it from. If it's covered, get it fixed. I work at Sears repair and we do Proforms, but I dont know if thats your cheapest option. Usually I see Proforms with a 90 day full warranty. Good luck.
