sand the repair can be attempted. This process is a difficult one and should be practiced by
someone knowledgeable in this field.
Upholstery Maintenance
Due to corrosive agents in perspiration, upholstery should be cleaned daily with a 10% diluted
consistency of lanolin hand cleaner in warm water. Do not use products such as Lysol®, Armor
Alll®, Windex® or other abrasive detergents as they will dry out and eventually cause Naugahyde®
to prematurely crack. When cleaning upholstery, wipe down top and sides with solution and follow
up with a dry towel to remove residue(s).
The rope should be cleaned daily with a solution of 70%-90% rubbing alcohol. No oils or soap
should ever be used to clean the rope.
6. MAINTENANCE PROCEDURES
Cleaning
Proper cleaning will help ensure the life of your product. The following parts should be cleaned
daily:
• Upholstery; using a solution of mild soap and water.
• Rope; using rubbing alcohol on a cloth wipe down the rope to remove hand oil
and grease.
Daily Part Inspection
Inspect the following parts daily for wear or damage:
• Hardware; inspect for looseness. Tighten as required using the proper tools.
• Frames; inspect for wear or damage.
• Rope; inspect for any snags, tears or fraying.
Routine Inspection and Maintenance
The following maintenance should be performed approximately once a week:
• Visually inspect all hardware for loosening, tampering or wear.
• Check jam nut on weight stack for tightness.
Once a month open the system covers and inspect:
• All gears and sprockets to make sure they have no play on the axis. For this,
check each connecting screw or set screw with the proper Allen wrench or
screwdriver. If a screw or set screw is found loose remove one at a time, add
LocTite to the treads and tighten back in place.
• The position of the flat rubber belt on the large gear. The entire belt width
should rest on the surface of the gear. If the belt is off on one side, loosen the
2 set screws for the gear and reposition so the belt is fully on the gear. This
condition might have caused excessive wear on the belt. Visually inspect the
belt and replace if worn.
• The rubber surface on the rope gripping pulley. The rubber surface should be
cleaned with rubbing alcohol.
• Spinning lead weights to ensure that they are tightly locked in place.
