PROBLEM: The arm cord assembly makes a chattering or screeching sound or the resistance knob
loosens.
SOLUTION: a. Check the order of the parts in the pulley assembly, and confirm that all parts are present. The
parts from the pulley to the resistance knob should be as follows: M10 washer, thrust washer,
M10 washer, and spring.
b. Roughen the surface of the resistance pad with 100-grit sandpaper. Oil the leather resistance
pad with one or two drops of light household oil. Spread the oil over the resistance pad.
c. Oil the M10 washers and the thrust washer if needed.
PROBLEM: The flywheel and/or the resistance strap offers no resistance.
SOLUTION: a. Check the routing of the resistance strap.

SOLUTION: a. Wipe off any excess oil.
b. Clean the bottoms of the skis with a dry cloth and a small amount of mineral spirits or paint
thinner.
c. Make sure that the flywheel is tight. Remove the “U” bolt cover from the flywheel (see step 8 on
