Care and Cleaning
It is not recommended that you oil or grease the chains on Jacobs Ladder 2. Greasing the
chains can prevent the machine from running smoothly.
The Jacobs Ladder 2 machine and rungs can be cleaned using any mild household cleaner
that you use on other cardio machines.
Never put polish or wax on the rungs. This will cause the rungs to become slippery and
unsafe.
Never put polish or wax on the black plastic runners at either end of the rungs. This will
prevent the machine from running smoothly.
IMPORTANT: The black plastic strips located underneath the plastic side rails must be kept
clean. Do not get any grease, oil, polish, etc.. on the black plastic strips.
Wipe down the display board with a damp cloth
Do not use cleaning sprays, large amounts of soap or water, abrasive or sharp objects on the
display board.
Please refer to the Preventative Maintenance Section.
