Fitness Edge Exercise Equipment here with a simple, yet often overlooked maintenance tip to help maintain and extend the life of your current or future treadmill! It is very easy for dust and debris to build up under the motor cover of your treadmill...The simple task of cleaning this area out every month or two can really help extend the life of your machine! Dust and dirt build up can cause unnecessary wear and tear on important internal parts like the motor or lower board. The excessive amount of dust can lead to overheating and can choke off the airflow that is necessary for a healthy treadmill to run smoothly. 


Check out the before and after! 


The difference may look subtle...but a good cleaning like this can make a huge difference in the long run! Use a shop vac or hand vacuum to get the job done.


So make sure you're vacuuming under the motor cover, keeping your treadmill in a dry environment, and making sure sweat and dirt/dust is wiped down on the exterior of your unit!


That way you can help your treadmill have a long and productive life...just like the treadmill is helping you to have!
