For optimal performance of the strength equipment and to reduce the chances of injury to users, you must perform preventive maintenance on a regular basis. Instruct all personnel to perform the procedures described in

his section. Personnel must also record and report any accident. To maintain the strength equipmentʼs warranty,

t use only FREEMOTION parts for repair or replacement. If there are any questions or concerns, see HOW TO CONTACT CUSTOMER CARE on the back cover of this manual.

DAILY MAINTENANCE

Upholstery and Frame—General Cleaning

1. Clean the strength equipment using a soft cloth dampened with a light solution of mild soap and warm water. If necessary, use a soft bristle brush with the cleaning solution.

2. Rinse the area thoroughly using a soft cloth dampened with clean water. Dry thoroughly.

Upholstery—Difficult Stains

1. Spray the stain with a non-abrasive household cleaner such as FORMULA 409 GREEN®, or a similar product. Rub the stained area gently and let the cleaning solution sit for a few minutes.

2. Rinse the area thoroughly using a soft cloth dampened with clean water. Dry thoroughly.

3. Repeat these steps if necessary using a soft bristle brush.

Optional Method for Difficult Stains

1. Rub the stained area gently using a soft cloth dampened with rubbing alcohol.

2. Rinse the area thoroughly using a soft cloth dampened with clean water. Dry thoroughly.

CAUTION: When using any cleaning product, try it first in an unnoticeable place to ensure that there is no damage to the material. Follow the directions and the safety precautions of the manufacturer of each cleaning product used. FreeMotion Fitness and its vendors cannot be held liable for damage or injuries resulting from the use or misuse of cleaning products. IMPOR- TANT: Do not use abrasive cleaners, which may scratch the strength equipment. Strong cleaners and abrasives will damage decals; use caution around decals. Do not use solvents such as lacquer thinner, kerosene, gasoline, or similar liquids.

WEEKLY MAINTENANCE

Hardware

Check all nuts and bolts and tighten them as required. IMPORTANT: All FREEMOTION cushions have dense plywood supports with tee-nuts that are used to bolt the cushions to the strength equipment. Because the tee-nuts are held by the plywood, they will not withstand the torque that standard nuts and bolts will. When tightening the bolts securing a cushion, turn them only until they are snug and the cushion does not move or feel loose. Overtightening may strip the tee-nuts from the plywood and make it impossible to remove the cushion in the future.

Cables

1. Check each cable for proper tension (see CABLE ADJUSTMENT on page 8).

2. Check the entire length of each cable by slowly performing one repetition on the strength equipment; inspect the cable that is exposed on the exterior of the strength equipment and the cable inside the tower. Run your fingers along the cable, paying close attention at the bends and attachment points. Watch for the following conditions, which may indicate a worn cable in need of replacement: A. a torn or split cable sheath that exposes the

cable B. a kinked or severely bent cable C. a curled or twisted sheath D. a stretched cable sheath, showing a thinning

cross-section

Page 8

able Traps

Check the cable traps to ensure that they are not rub-

ing against the cables and that they are holding the

b cables in the grooves of the pulleys. If a cable trap is not correctly aligned, loosen the bolt slightly, readjust the cable trap as necessary, and retighten the bolt.

f there is too much tension on the cables, the weight

I carriage will not rest on the next weight, and it may be

ifficult to insert the weight pin into the weights.

If there is not enough tension on the cables, the weight carriage will not be lifted immediately when the

epetition is begun. Ideally, the cables should not

r move more than 1/2 in. (1.3 cm) from the resting position before the weight carriage is lifted.

If there is too much tension or not enough tension on a cable, adjust the cable as described in the following steps.

WEIGHT GUIDE LUBRICATION

Clean and lubricate the full length of each weight guide by wiping it with a soft cloth containing a lightweight motor oil, 10W-40 or 10W-30 weight. Apply only a light coating over the entire length of the weight

guide. Do not use TEFLON

-based lubricants.

CABLE ADJUSTMENT

For the strength equipment to function correctly, the cables must be tensioned correctly. To check the tension of the cables, insert the weight pin into the weight carriage. Next, slowly raise and lower the weight carriage by performing one repetition. The weight carriage should come to rest just on top of the next weight when the repetition is completed.

1. Remove the access cover by pulling it free at the bottom and then sliding it upward until the two sets of tabs release.

2. Loosen the locknut attaching the pulley in the bracket on the weight carriage.

3. Move the pulley to the appropriate location in the bracket. If more slack is needed in the cable, move the pulley upward. If less slack is needed in the cable, move the pulley downward.

4. Make sure that the cable trap is properly oriented (see CABLE TRAPS at the left) and retighten the locknut attaching the pulley to the bracket.

5. Check the tension of the cables as described above. Readjust as necessary.

6. Slowly perform a repetition using a light load and have someone make sure that the cable is not derailed from a pulley or rubbing on a cable trap.

7. Replace the access cover.

ADDITIONAL ADJUSTMENTS

andle End Adjustment

Tools required: 1/8" hex key, cable cutters, torque wrench, utility knife

4. Cut off one inch of the cable end using cable cutters. Note: Using any other tool may flatten or

isrupt the end strands so that it may be diffi-

d cult to reinsert the cable into the hole of the cable lock.

Note: Make this adjustment only if the pulley in the

weight carriage has been fully adjusted to the bottom of the slot in the bracket and the cable requires more tension.

Note: This adjustment is only for increasing the cable tension, because it requires shortening the cable. Only one end of the cable should be shortened.

1. Create slack in the cable by removing the weight pin and pulling the handle out six to eight inches.

Insert the weight pin into the third weight plate and the tube on the bottom of the weight carriage.

2. Push the black rubber cable stop off the aluminum cable lock and slide the cable stop upward a few inches.

5. Cut off one inch of the black cable sheath from the end of the cable.

6. Reinsert the cable and the sheath into the cable lock so that all of the bare cable is in the hole.

7. Retighten the four set screws into the threaded holes. Tighten the set screws equally until they contact the cable. Then, tighten each screw alternately 1/4 turn, until all are set to 85 inch/pounds (9.6 Newton-meters).

8. Slide the rubber cable stop over the cable lock, remove the weight pin, and lower the handle.

9. Check for proper tension on the cable as described in CABLE ADJUSTMENT, on page 8.

ADJUSTMENT KNOB

If an adjustment knob sticks, it will need to be relubricated. Disassemble the knob and apply a light coating of lithium grease. Reassemble the knob as shown in the diagram.
