MAINTENANCE
For safe and trouble-free operation of your EPIC STRENGTH strength equipment, it is important to perform
preventive maintenance on a regular basis. Make sure that all parts are properly tightened each time the strength
machine is used. Replace any worn parts immediately. The strength machine can be cleaned with a cloth damp-
ened with water and a mild, non-abrasive soap. Do not use solvents.
Note:
Instruct all personnel to perform equipment inspection and maintenance requirements. Personnel must
record and report any accident. For any questions or concerns, see HOW TO CONTACT CUSTOMER CARE
on the back cover of this manual.
Use only original EPIC STRENGTH parts for repair or replacement to maintain your machine’s warranty.

each handle individually to its fully extended
position and inspecting the cable that is
exposed on the exterior of the machine, as well
as the cable inside of the cut stack tower.
• Run your fingers along the cable, paying close
attention at the bends and attachment points.
• Watch for the following conditions, which may
indicate a worn cable in need of replacement:
