ensure safe, efficient long term operation.
However, it must be realized that safe use of this equip-
ment requires that owners carefully read and follow the
Powerline Equipment use recommendations, warnings,
and maintenance guidelines in this Owners Manual.
Routine inspection and maintenance is of critical impor-
tance to ensure the maximum safety and performance
of the PGM200X. Powerline Equipment uses the highest
quality materials available, but wear is inevitable. There-
fore, you must carefully inspect your equipment as outlined
in the Maintenance Schedule on the next page.
Be advised that dangerous conditions can arise even
during a warranty period. A warranty does not negate the
owner’s responsibility to thoroughly, carefully and daily
inspect the machine.
Including maintaining the equipment the owner’s responsi-
bility is also to:
l
Be sure to always provide adequate
supervision to all end-users.
l
Be sure to instruct all end-users of
proper usage.
l
Be sure all supervisors and personal
trainers who instruct end-users on
equipment are properly trained and
know the function and importance of
every adjustment and setting.
Also, be sure these trainers provide
proper instruction to end-users on the
fundamentals of strength training.
CABLES:

While the machine is not in use. Carefully run
your fingers along the cable to feel for
