Treadmill is not just an equipment for home gym but a very useful recovery machine. More and more people buy one at home. A good quality treadmill is not cheap. So how to maintain a treadmill becomes very important. In this article, we will talk about this topic from below points.
1. Clean the body of treadmill and the dust under it regularly. We suggest that you had better use cotton soft cloth to wipe lightly. Do not use acid cleaner.
2. Check whether there are any foreign objects between running belt and running board such as chewing gum, little creatures etc. Once you find any foreign objects, clear immediately. We suggest that you had better place a professional exercise mat under your treadmill. On one hand, it will cancel the noise during running and protect your flooring. On the other hand, it will prevent dust and foreign object from entering motor box or between running belt and running board.
3. Regularly check the tightness of the running belt and whether there is any deviation.
4. Regularly check the emergency braking function of the treadmill to ensure it is safe and effective.
5. Periodically, apply silicone oil between the running belt and the running board; make sure the running belt runs smoothly.
To correctly use and regularly maintain a treadmill will prolong the life of your machine.
