Maintenance
It is important to perform the minor maintenance tasks
described in this section. Failure to maintain the EFX as
described here could void the Precor Limited Warranty.
To reduce the risk of electrical shock,
always unplug the unit from its power
source before cleaning it or
performing any maintenance tasks.
Inspection
Inspect the EFX before use.
Look and listen for slipping belts, loose fasteners, unusual
noises, worn or frayed power cords, and any other
indications that the equipment may be in need of service. If
you notice any of these, obtain service.
Important:
If you determine that the EFX needs service,
make sure that the EFX cannot be used inadvertently. Turn
the unit Off, insert the locking pin and then unplug the
power cord from its power source. Make sure other users
know that the EFX needs service.
To order parts or to contact a Precor authorized service
provider in your area, refer to
Obtaining Service
.
Cleaning the Equipment
Most of the working mechanisms are protected inside the
covers. However, for efficient operation, the EFX relies on
low friction. To keep the friction low, the unit’s rollers, ramp,
foot pedals, handlebars, and covers must be as clean as
possible.
Precor recommends the EFX be cleaned before and after
each workout. Use mild soap and water; dampen a soft cloth
and wipe all exposed surfaces. This helps remove any dust
or dirt.
CAUTION: Do not use any acidic cleaners. Doing so will
weaken the paint or powder coatings and void the Precor
Limited Warranty. Never pour water or spray liquids on any
part of the EFX. Allow the EFX to dry completely before
using.
Frequently vacuum the floor around the unit to prevent the
accumulation of dust and dirt, which can affect the smooth
operation of the unit. Use a soft nylon scrub brush to clean
the foot pedals.
