Q:
What kind of routine maintenance is required?
A:
We use sealed bearings throughout our Elliptical Trainers so
lubrication is not needed. The most important maintenance step is to
simply wipe your perspiration off the Elliptical Trainer after each use.
Q:
Will the magnets wear out over time?
A:
No, we use permanent magnets that will retain their braking force
indefinitely in this application. One of the big advantages of a
magnetic brake is its long life since there is no physical contact between
the flywheel and the magnet surface.
Q:
How long will the drive belt last?
A:
The computer modeling we had done indicated virtually thousands of
maintenance-free hours. Belts are now used in far more demanding
applications such as motorcycle drives.
