Equipment Maintenance

WARNING: Routine inspection and maintenance is of critical importance to ensure maximum safety and performance. We use the highest quality materials available, but wear is inevitable. Be advised that dangerous conditions can arise even during a warranty period. A warranty does not negate the owner’s responsibility to thoroughly, carefully and daily inspect the machine. Consult your physician before starting your exercise program. For your own safety, do not begin any exercise program without proper instruction.

1. Check Rope
   While the machine is not in use carefully inspect the rope for damage and tears.
   Carefully inspect connection of rope ends and make sure that stitching (threads) are not torn or damaged. Do not use equipment until damaged rope has been replaced.

2. Upholstery
   Wipe down after every workout.
   Periodically take the time to use a mild soap or mild vinyl upholstery cleaner. Avoid using any abrasive cleaner not intended for use on vinyl.
   Keep sharp or pointed objects out of your pockets and clear of all upholstery.

3. Nuts/Bolts/Fasteners
   Periodically inspect all nuts and bolts. Tighten if needed. If bolts seem to loosen periodically, use Loctite 242 for a long-term cure.
   Go through a re-tightening sequence periodically to ensure that all hardware is properly tensioned.

4. Adjustments / Locking Pins / Tightening Knobs
   Check all pieces for signs of visible wear or damage.
   Check springs in Snap Links and Pop Pins for proper tension and alignment.
   If the spring sticks or has lost its rigidity, replace it immediately.

5. Anti-Skid Surfaces
   Replace if they appear worn or become slippery.

6. Lubrication
   Periodic lubrication of seat slides and bearings is required. Use WD-40 or engine oil with cloth to wipe all slide and bearing surfaces.

7. Warning Instruction Labels
   Inspect and familiarize yourself with all safety warnings and other user information on decals. Replace decals if damaged, illegible, or removed.
