WHAT KIND OF ROUTINE MAINTENANCE IS REQUIRED?

We  use  sealed  bearings  throughout  our  ellipticals  so  lubrication  is  not  needed.  The  most  important 

maintenance step is to simply wipe your perspiration off the trainer after each use.

HOW DO I CLEAN MY ELLIPTICAL?

Clean with soap and water cleaners only. Never use solvents on plastic parts.

Cleanliness of your elliptical and its operating environment will keep maintenance problems and 

service calls to a minimum. For this reason, Fitness Gear recommends that the following preventive 

maintenance schedule be followed.

AFTER EACH USE (DAILY)

Turn off the elliptical by unplugging the power cord from the wall outlet

• Wipe down the elliptical with a damp cloth. Never use solvents, as they can cause damage to the 

elliptical.

• Inspect the power cord. If the power cord is damaged, contact Fitness Gear.

• Make sure the power cord is not underneath the elliptical or in any other area where it can become 

pinched or cut.

To remove power from the elliptical, the power cord must be disconnected from 

the wall outlet.

WEEKLY

Clean underneath the elliptical, following these steps:

• Turn off the elliptical

• Move the elliptical to a remote location.

• Wipe or vacuum any dust particles or other objects that may have accumulated underneath the         

elliptical.

• Return the elliptical to its previous position.

EVERY MONTH

• Inspect all assembly bolts and pedals on the machine for proper tightness.

• Clean any debris off of the pedal arm wheels and guide rails.
