Treadmill Owners-Question For You

Wife and I are getting a treadmill, never owned one before. It will be used seasonally (winter) and will be in a spare bedroom. My question is if there is anything special we need to do when not using it between winters? It's a fold up model and it probably will have a sheet or some type of covering to keep the dust off but didn't know if there is anything else we need to do.

    Unplug it. That's about all I do with mine.

    Cool. Just wanted to make sure since it will sit unused about 9 month each year.

    Make sure you oil the running board well before you get back on it. That's the only one I can think of.
