Inspect:
Overall Machine:
We highly recommend that you visually inspect the machine daily.
Springs:
Even with extensive pre-testing and rigorous quality inspections, the possibility of spring failure exists. In addition,
severe nicks or abrasions may develop as a result of misuse and could lead to premature spring breakage. Not replacing springs
in a timely manner could also lead to failure. While breakage or deformation of a spring and the resulting potential for injury is
a remote possibility, a daily inspection is critical. If, at any time, a gap between coils of a spring becomes evident, that spring
needs to be replaced immediately.
The springs are zinc plated to prevent rust or corrosion from perspiration, condensation and/or humidity. Minor variations in the
brightness of the finish are the result of different plating batches and do not affect the performance of the springs.
Tracking System:
The shielded bearings in the Carriage Wheels are permanently lubricated and require no further service. You
should inspect the Axles every two months. Remove any debris that might be entwined between the Wheels and Carriage Frame
and tighten the Axles if any Wheel “play” is evident.
Hardware:
All hardware should be checked every 2 months to make sure that every nut, bolt and fastener is secure.
