Clean and Lubricate Cable Rod Ends
Inspect the exposed areas of the guide rods for cleanliness. Using a
dry cloth, wipe any buildup of dirt of grease from the rods. Check
cable rod ends to ensure the shoulder bolt is secure. If cable rod ends
are noisy, you can lubricate them with a silicone spray lubricant, such
as Super Lube
®
. Spray the lubricant onto the joint where the spherical
portion is enclosed in the outer housing (refer to Figure 7). Wipe off
any excess lubricant with a cloth.

Important:
Do not use petroleum-based lubricants such as WD-40
®
,
Vaseline
®
, or motor oil.
Clean and Lubricate Guide Rods
Inspect the exposed areas of the guide rods for cleanliness. Using a
dry cloth, wipe any buildup of dirt or grease from the rods.
Lubricate the exposed areas of the guide rods by applying a light coat
of a silicone spray lubricant. Spray the silicone lubricant on a cloth and
then wipe the guide rods with the cloth.
Be careful with any lubricant
spray; it can stain carpet and clothing.
CAUTION: Do not attempt to lubricate the guide rods when the
equipment is in use. Attempting to lubricate between the weight
plates without completely disassembling the stack will result in
serious injury.
Important:
Do not use petroleum-based lubricants or motor oil.
These lubricants tend to cause a rapid buildup of dirt and hair on the
weight plates, which can cause the plates to stick together.
Note:
The CW802 Smith Machine has counter-balance guide rods
behind the maintenance shields, which should be cleaned and
lubricated weekly.
