aintenance Information
1. Lubrication of all moving parts is essential to the
longevity and optimal performance of your Smith-
Half Cage Series. Initial lubrication of some parts of
your gym has been done at the factory, but the Linear
Shafts must be lubricated at the time of assembly. We
recommend a light layer of tefl on grease.
Note
: Do not use oil based lubricants as they will attract
dust, dirt and grime, and will eventually gum up and
erode bushings and sealed bearings.
2. Periodically check all moving parts for signs of wear or
damage. If there is a problem or replacement part is
necessary, STOP USING THE EQUIPMENT and im-
mediately contact your local Tuff Stuff retailer or call our
Customer Service Department. Replace parts using
only genuine Tuff Stuff parts.
3. The unit should be wipe down with a damp cloth and
dried on a daily basis. The powder coat fi nish should
be polished with a good car wax on a weekly basis.
The chrome-plated surfaces should be polished with a
commercial grade or automotive type chrome polish on
a weekly basis.
Maintenance
4. Linear bearing systems are precision, high loa
components that require regular maintenance. Th
Linear Shafts must be wipe down weekly and lubricate
with a light layer of tefl on grease. Lack of care an
maintenance will result in corrosion of the Linear Shaft
causing the bearings to clogged and jammed.
5. When checking the bolts and nuts, be sure they are a
fully fastened. If there is a bolt or nut that continuousl
loosens obtain a replacement through your local Tu
Stuff retailer or call our Customer Service Department
