General Safety and Maintenance Manual: Weekly Inspection
18
Inspect Cable Handle Attachments
Check the cable-to-handle attachment area very closely. Refer to
Figure 8. Look for frayed cable ends, broken thimbles, bent cables,
worn spring clips, worn handles, and any other unusual wear.

Also, check the spring clip gate and make sure it closes properly and
engages securely. Refer to Figure 9. Check the spring clip, links, and
cable to ensure integrity; replace any spring clip link that does not
function properly or shows wear.

Inspect Pulleys
Precor uses precision ball bearing idler pulleys to smoothly guide
the cable.
Inspect each pulley for damage, including hairline cracks, chips, or
missing sections. Worn surfaces in the pulleys can cause severe
damage to the cables and must be replaced at the first sign of wear or
damage.
Be certain that the wheels turn freely as the equipment is used.
Inspect each pulley for excessive side-to-side play, which indicates
worn bearings or loose mounting bolts. If excessive play is discovered,
remove the pulley to inspect the bearings, and replace the entire
pulley if necessary.
Inspect Weight Stack and Selector Pin
Weight stacks are made of precision machine plates that are
designed as a single mechanism to stack precisely. Use only Precor-
supplied add-on weights and weight selector pins.
On a weekly basis, inspect weight stacks and selector pins. Wipe
each plate with a damp cloth as needed. Inspect all plates for sharp
burs or damage. Wipe dirt and dust off the guide rods.
Make sure the equipment uses only the original Precor selector pin. In
addition, make sure the selector pin can be fully inserted and retained
in each weight plate.
Check these
areas closely.
