MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS
The VersaClimber consists of a mainframe that is
supported on a stable 3 point base. A sprocket is
attached to a hydraulic pump located at the top of
the mainframe. The top handle sliding bars and
bottom pedal sliding bars are connected with
chain. These bars travel up and down inside the
main frame on rollers and slide bearings.
Sprockets located between the pedal bars and
the handle bars are designed to synchronously
increase the length of arm motion over the height
of leg motion.
HAND GRIPS-The hand grips are a high quality
rubber grip. The handgrips are replaceable with
any good quality “flanged” grip from your local
bike shop or contact Heart Rate Inc. for spares.
FOOT PEDALS-The foot pedals are made of a
strong durable
PROGHG SODVWLF
. Every two
mon
ths, place a few drops of light oil on the shaft
at
both ends of the pedal. The foot pedal straps
are replaceable.
DISPLAY MODULE-The display module requires
no maintenance. If a malfunction occurs, see
trouble shooting on page 17 or contact the Heart
Rate Inc’s service department.
The module is secured to the machine with 4
screws and has easy to remove wire connectors.
Repairs to the module must be made at the
factory. If the unit is returned for repair include a
brief description of the problem. Package the
module carefully to avoid physical damage. The
machine can be used while the electronics are
off
the machine for repair.
THE HYDRAULIC SYSTEM
The hydraulic resistance consists of a heavy
duty reversible gear pump and a pressure flow
control valve connected between the input and
the output ports with high-pressure copper
tubing.
A clear oil fill
HG
reservoir is located on
top
of the pump to monitor oil level. Disregard
any
change in oil color. Hydraulic resistance
is
developed in a permanent
closed loop system
filled with oil that does not require changing.
When climbing, oil passes through the pressure
control valve. Closing the valve increases climb-
ing resistance and opening the valve decreases
climbing resistance.
If a large amount of slack (more than 1/2” travel)
develops when reversing the stepping motion,
this indicates a possible loss of oil from the
system.
Visually check the fittings and the shaft
seal for oil leaks. Tighten any leaking fitting
1/4 turn maximum.
Then fill the reservoir with oil
up to 1/2” from the top.
ROLLER, SLIDE BEARINGS
AND TRACK LUBRICATION
The roller and slide bearings are made from high
pressure Moly-Disulfide filled Nylon. This bearing
material is expected to be maintenance free for
years. The bearings and inner tracks of the
rectangular
tubing are lightly lubricated at the
factory. The wear life and smooth operation of the
machine can be assured by lubricating every six
months or sooner if required with
6XSHU
/XEH
Professional High Performance Spray Lu
bricant
with PTFE.
NOTE:
SLIDE BEARINGS AND TRACKS REQUIRE CLEANING
AND LUBRICATION WHEN THERE IS A NOTICEABLE
INCREASE IN THE RESISTANCE TO MOTION OR A
STICKY FEELING OF THE HANDGRIP AND FOOT
PEDAL MOTION. THIS INCREASE IN RESISTANCE IS
NOT CAUSED BY A LACK OF LUBRICATION. IT IS
CAUSED BY AN ACCUMULATION OF LINT AND
DUST IN THE LUBRICANT THAT IS DRYING OUT.
IT IS THIS HIGHLY VISCOUS DRIED OUT LUBRI-
CANT (TAR LIKE SUBSTANCE) THAT CAUSES THE
INCREASE IN RESISTANCE.
IT IS ONLY NECESSARY TO
CLEAN THE TAR LIKE SUBSTANCE
FROM THE POST TO
RESTORE THE MACHINE TO FACTORY SMOOTH
MOTION.
To clean, spray all internal accessible surfaces of
the rectangular tubing with odorless paint thinner.
With a rag, wipe the old oil, lint, dirt, etc. from all
internal surfaces. Move the bars up or down to
allow access to clean the foot pedal slots and
handgrip slots. Move the machine through ten full
cycles and clean again. When thoroughly clean,
VSUD\
a very thin coat of
6XSHU/XEHZLWK37)(
on all internal
surfaces of the rectangular tubing.
