Lubricating the Guide Rods
Two small packets of lubricant are shipped with the FTS Glide. To lubricate the
guide rods, apply lubricant to a clean cloth and spread evenly on each guide
rod. Use one tube of lubricant per guide rod.
CAUTION: The lubricant can stain clothes. Wear proper attire when
lubricating the guide rods.

Bolting the FTS Glide to the Floor
As floor materials vary, it is important that you consult a qualified building
contractor to advise you on proper bolting.
Precor highly recommends that the FTS Glide be bolted down at each floor
anchoring point with a structural joint that has a pull out strength of at least
600 pounds of force (2,669 Newtons). Bolting is made possible by removing
the rubber cap near the weight stacks on the base frame, exposing the 12 mm
holes to accommodate the bolts.

Important:
Standards occasionally change or are updated. Precor recommends that
you keep apprised of your local industry standards. Precor shall not be held liable for
failure to properly bolt the FTS Glide to the floor.
Attaching Localized Labels (Optional)
The FTS Glide ships with English language warning labels attached to the
equipment. Localized language labels are also included with the equipment.
To replace the English labels with a specific language for your users, remove
the new label from your hardware kit, remove the adhesive back and place it
over the English label.
