Exercising on an electric treadmill is undoubtedly fun, but more importantly, it is a great way to stay in shape, especially during the winter months when the weather is not conducive to outdoor activity.
Why is maintenance important?
If you have decided to buy a treadmill for home use, you should know that regular cleaning and lubrication of the treadmill will prevent breakdowns, prolong its life and increase the comfort and safety of your workout. Therefore, it is important to regularly check the condition of your treadmill and perform maintenance. Ignoring this need can lead to unpleasant consequences such as belt friction, motor overload and slowdown, which can negatively affect the quality of your workout. You don't want your exercise equipment to be broken, do you? So use a silicone oil for treadmill maintenance and you'll be able to enjoy safe and trouble-free treadmill operation.
Which product should I choose?
The most popular maintenance product recommended by experts is a silicone-based oil. Prounol Treadmill Silicone Oil is made from 100% silicone and meets the requirements of all major treadmill manufacturers. It stays on the surface longer than other types of lubricants. It does not leave a sticky residue on the equipment and is safe to use on rubber surfaces. Treadmill Oil also leaves no unpleasant odours or stains on the surface when applied and wiped off. It is completely safe for skin contact.
How do you maintain your treadmill correctly?
Have you bought treadmill oil but don't know what to do next? Rest assured, maintaining an electric treadmill really isn't difficult! First, unplug the treadmill. Apply the lubricant under the belt on both sides of the treadmill. A pipette will help you to measure out the optimum amount of oil. Apply 5-10 ml and spread under the belt in a wave shape, then connect the treadmill and walk around the treadmill for about 3 minutes to distribute the oil thoroughly. This should be repeated after every 30-60 hours of treadmill use.
