I dont know if this is what your talking about, but with mine, I was told to spray lubricant under the belt, just by lifting the edge slightly. I was told to use a silicone lubricant rather than an oil which is bad for the rubber in the belt.

Be careful with silicone, tis mad slippy stuff. You dont want to break your neck on the floor from overspray or anything.
