MAINTENANCE
It is important for safe and trouble-free operation of your FREEMOTION EPIC strength equipment to perform
routine preventive maintenance on a regular basis. Instruct all personnel to perform equipment inspection and
maintenance requirements. Personnel must record and report any accident. To maintain the strength benchʼs
warranty, use only FREEMOTION EPIC parts for repair or replacement. For any questions or concerns, see
HOW TO CONTACT CUSTOMER CARE on the back cover of this manual.
