Important Safety Guidelines for Owners
Follow these guidelines to maintain proper working condition of the
equipment:
Important: Do not modify the equipment or any of its parts, or
permanently remove any part from the equipment. Do not use
accessory attachments that are not recommended by Precor, as
such attachments might cause injuries.
• Qualified technicians must perform all regular maintenance.
• Check that all fasteners are securely tightened. Cables should be
secured at both end connections and properly threaded. Weight
stacks should be secure and functioning properly. Handle
attachments should be properly connected.
• Make sure that trainers, facility personnel, and maintenance
technicians understand how to use the equipment, know
important safety guidelines, and can recognize potential
problems such as a worn cable, loose hardware, or cracked
weld.
• Strength training requires a significant focus by the facility and its
staff to maintain the quality of the fitness environment. If possible,
the facility should provide direct supervision of the fitness
equipment at all times by people knowledgeable about the safe
operation of the equipment and trained to recognize potential
problems.
