Care and Maintenance
Daily Cleaning
After exercising, we recommend that you gently wipe the equipment to prevent rust and
maintain the appearance.
Never spray cleaner directly on the frame. Please spray it on a cloth instead and use it to
gently clean the equipment. A simple mixture of soap and water will do. Make sure not to
use abrasive or oily cleaning products as this will peel paint from the frame.
Weekly Maintenance
For weekly maintenance, we recommend that you carry out a general check of the equip-
ment, focusing on the performance of the equipment. You may need an experienced rider to
help out in this. You need to pay attention to the looseness and excessive vibration of the
equipment.
The bottom bracket assembly will loosen over time and needs to be tightened. The pedal
and crank arm also need to be tightened regularly.
Monthly Maintenance
For monthly maintenance, we recommend that you carry out a comprehensive inspection of
the overall frame and main assembly components of the equipment.
The main thing that will require your attention are the brake pads, which will require lubrica-
tion when the resistance starts skipping or if there is a grinding noise coming from this area
of the equipment.
When you experience either of those, just dot a small amount of lubricant along the flywheel
(where the brake pads will make contact) and rotate the flywheel slowly, with light resistance
on. This will allow the brake pads to absorb the oil properly for a smoother ride.
If your equipment only needs a little lubrication, you can use an oiled cloth and rub this on
the area of the flywheel that makes contact with the brake pads.
Other moving components, such as the resistance bar, seat and handlebar posts, will
require occasional cleaning and lubrication as well.
