TROUBLESHOOTING
MAINTENANCE
The equipment requires very little maintenance. However; it is recommended to check all screws, bolts and nuts regularly.
After exercising, clean the equipment with a soft absorbent cloth. Do not use solvents. Sweat may cause corrosion: we
recommend that the unit is wiped clean with an absorbent cloth after each workout. A damp cloth with a mild detergent may also
be used on a weekly basis.
Never remove the equipment’s protective covers.
Inspect and tighten all parts on the equipment regularly. Replace any worn parts immediately and /or keep the equipment out of
use until repaired.
If the equipment is not used for an extended period of time, the drive belt may become temporarily distorted. This can lead to
sensation of slightly uneven pedaling. However, after a few workouts the effect will disappear as the belt returns to its original
form.
