MAINTENANCE AND TROUBLESHOOTING
For optimal performance of the strength equipment and to reduce the chances of injury to users, you must per-
form preventive maintenance on a regular basis. Instruct all personnel to perform the procedures described in
this section. Personnel must also record and report any accident. To maintain the strength equipment’s warranty,
use only FREEMOTION parts for repair or replacement. If there are any questions or concerns, see HOW TO
CONTACT CUSTOMER CARE on the back cover of this manual.
Daily Maintenance
General Cleaning
Clean the strength equipment using a soft cloth damp-
ened with mild soap and warm water. If necessary, use
a soft bristle brush with the cleaning solution.
Then, rinse the strength equipment using a soft cloth
dampened with clean water, and thoroughly dry it.
Difficult Stains
Spray the stain with a non-abrasive household cleaner
such as FORMULA 409
®
cleaner, SIMPLE GREEN
®
, or
a similar product. Rub the stained area gently, and then
let the cleaning solution sit for a few minutes.
Then, rinse the strength equipment using a soft cloth
dampened with clean water, and thoroughly dry it.
If necessary, repeat these steps using a soft bristle
brush.
Optional Method for Difficult Stains
Rub the stained area gently using a soft cloth damp-
ened with rubbing alcohol.
Then, rinse the strength equipment using a soft cloth
dampened with clean water, and thoroughly dry it.
CAUTION:
Follow the directions and the safety pre-
cautions of the manufacturer of each cleaning product
used. FreeMotion Fitness and its vendors cannot be
held liable for injuries or damage resulting from the use
or misuse of cleaning products.
IMPORTANT:
When
using any cleaning product, try it first in an unnotice-
able place to ensure that there is no damage to the
material. Do not use abrasive cleaners; strong clean-
ers; or solvents such as lacquer thinner, kerosene,
gasoline, or similar liquids. Such substances may
scratch the strength equipment, damage plastic parts
and decals, or cause other damage.
WEEKLY MAINTENANCE
Hardware
Check all nuts, bolts, and screws, and tighten them if
necessary.
IMPORTANT:
All cushions have dense ply-
wood supports with tee-nuts that are used to attach the
cushions to the strength equipment. Because the tee-
nuts are held by the plywood, they will not withstand
the torque that standard nuts will. When tightening the
bolts or screws securing a cushion, turn them only until
they are snug and the cushion does not move or feel
loose. Overtightening may strip the tee-nuts from the
plywood and make it impossible to remove the cushion
in the future.
MONTHLY MAINTENANCE
Grips
Check the grips and replace them if needed.
