10. Removing the Carriage For Maintenance
From time to time you may need to remove the carriage either to deep clean the wheels & runners or to
change the springs or wheels. Removing the carriage is easily done and no tools are required. To do this
follow these steps
a) Remove shoulder rests, unlocking them first if they were locked
b) Remove the T bar that holds the ropes
c) Fold down the rope risers and rotate the pulleys so they are flat and pointing towards the runner
d) Remove the two carriage stoppers at the open end of the runner - these can be unscrewed by hand
e) Now gently slide the carriage out
Remember when putting the carriage back in to be careful not to damage the wheels when inserting
them in to the runner - this job ius best done by two people.
8) Use equipment only for recognised Pilates repertoire.
9) Stop exercising if you experience chest pain, feel faint, have difficulty breathing or experience
musculoskeletal discomfort.
10) Keep clothing, body and hair free from all moving parts.
11) Do not use if the equipment appears worn, broken or damaged. Do not attempt to repair equipment yourself.
Ensure equipment that is out of service cannot be used.
12) Do not allow children to use or be around equipment without adult supervision.
13) Do not exceed the maximum user weight for the equipment of 150kg
