Every three months, lubricate the upper and
lower sprockets and upper and lower chain.
Use light grease.
With the aid of a flashlight and a 4 inch oil
spout can, place a few drops of oil between
the bottom sprocket hub and its mounting
bracket. Wipe off excess oil from the
sprocket and both chains. Lubricant may be
purchased directly from VersaClimber’s
Service Department by calling 1-800-237-
2271 x226
OTHER MAINTENANCE
CLEANLINESS -- It is recommended that the
VersaClimber be placed on approximately a
five foot square rubber or plastic mat
because users are going to perspire profusely.
To prevent corrosion, it is recommended that
the machine mainframe and base plate be
wiped clean with soap and water at a "good
housekeeping frequency" to remove salts
and other body residues. Wipe machine
down no less than once a week. It is further
recommended that the machine be cleaned
and waxed once a month with any good
quality car wax.
HANDGRIPS -- The handgrips are a high
quality 1 1/4” diameter rubber bicycle grip.
When handle grips wear out replace them
with any good quality "flanged" grip from
your local bike shop or contact HRI for
spares.
FOOT PEDALS -- The foot pedals are made
of a strong durable extruded aluminum.
Every two months place a few drops of light
oil between the pedal and pedal shaft at both
ends of the foot pedal.
If a malfunction occurs, refer to trouble
shooting guide or contact the Heart Rate Inc.
Service Department for further instructions.
To remove the electronic control unit from a
single machine installation unit, simply
remove the four mounting screws on the
sides of the plastic console.
Then unplug the wires to the digital encoder
and from the power supply. Replacement is
the reverse of this procedure. If the unit is to
be shipped, package it carefully to avoid
physical damage.
The machine can be used while the
electronics are either turned off or out for
repair if the bare wire ends are insulated with
electrical tape.
