6. Maintenance and Care

Regular maintenance ensures the longevity and optimal performance of your ZIPRO Lite treadmill.

6.1. Cleaning

• Always unplug the treadmill before cleaning.
• Wipe down the display and exterior surfaces with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or solvents.
• Periodically vacuum under the treadmill to prevent dust and debris buildup.

6.2. Belt Lubrication

The running belt requires periodic lubrication to reduce friction and extend its lifespan. The frequency depends on usage:

• Light use (less than 3 hours/week): Every 5-6 months
• Moderate use (3-5 hours/week): Every 3-4 months
• Heavy use (more than 5 hours/week): Every 1-2 months

To lubricate:

1. Unplug the treadmill.
2. Carefully lift one side of the running belt.
3. Apply a small amount of silicone lubricant (provided or recommended by ZIPRO) in a Z-pattern directly onto the center of the deck under the belt.
4. Repeat on the other side.
5. Plug in the treadmill and run it at a low speed (e.g., 1 km/h) for 5 minutes to distribute the lubricant evenly.
