CHAPTER 1: Important Safety Instructions

1.4 ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS

For your safety and Ascent performance, the ground on this circuit must be
non-looped. Please refer to NEC article 210-21 and 210-23. Your elliptical is
provided with a power cord with a plug listed below and requires the listed
outlet. Any alterations of this power cord could void all warranties of this
product. Multiple Ascent trainers can be powered on one

dedicated circuit. (3

units per 15 Amp and 4 units per 20 Amp dedicated circuit.)

1.5 DEDICATED CIRCUIT/ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENT INFO

All Matrix Ascent Trainer units require the use of a 15 amp or 20 amp
“dedicated circuit,” with a non-looped (isolated) neutral/ground, for the
power requirement. Quite simply this means that each outlet you plug
Ascent Trainers into should not have anything else running on that same
circuit besides other Ascent or Incline trainers (up to 3 per 15 amp circuit
and 4 per 20 amp circuit). The easiest way to verify this is to locate the
main circuit breaker box, and turn off the breaker(s) one at a time. Once a
breaker has been turned off, the only thing that should not have power to
it are the Ascent/Incline trainers in question. No lamps, vending machines,
fans, sound systems, or any other item should lose power when you perform
this test.

Non-looped (isolated) neutral/grounding means that each circuit must have
an individual neutral/ground connection coming from it, and terminating at
an approved earth ground. You

cannot “jumper” a single neutral/ground from

one circuit to the next.

In addition to the dedicated circuit requirement, the proper gauge wire
must be used from the circuit breaker box, to each outlet that will have the
maximum number of units running off of it. If the distance from the circuit
breaker box, to each outlet, is 100 ft or less, then 12 gauge wire may be
used. For any distance greater than 100 ft from the circuit breaker box to the
outlet, 10 gauge wire must be used.

2.1 RECOMMENDED CLEANING TIPS

Preventative maintenance and daily cleaning will prolong the life and look of your
MATRIX Ascent Trainer.

Please read and follow these tips.

• Position the equipment away from direct sunlight. The intense UV light can
cause discoloration on plastics.

• Locate your equipment in an area with cool temperatures and low humidity.

• Clean with a soft 100% cotton cloth.

• Clean with soap and water or other non-ammonia based all purpose cleaners.

• Wipe foot pads, handles, heart rate grips, and handlebars clean after each use.

• Do not pour liquids directly onto your equipment. This can cause damage to the
equipment and in some cases electrocution.

• Check pedal motion and stability.

• Adjust leveling feet when equipment wobbles or rocks.

• Maintain a clean area around equipment, free from dust and dirt.

2.2 CHECK FOR DAMAGED PARTS

DO NOT use any equipment that is damaged or has worn or broken parts. Use

only replacement parts supplied by Matrix Fitness Systems.

MAINTAIN LABELS AND NAMEPLATES. Do not remove labels for any reason.
They contain important information. If unreadable or missing, contact Matrix
Fitness Systems for a replacement. 1-866-693-4863, www.matrixfitness.com

MAINTAIN ALL EQUIPMENT Preventative maintenance is the key to smooth
operating equipment. Equipment needs to be inspected at regular intervals.
Defective components must be replaced immediately. Improperly working
equipment must be kept out of use until it is repaired. Ensure that any person(s)
making adjustments or performing maintenance or repair of any kind is qualified
to do so. Matrix Fitness Systems will provide service and maintenance training at
our corporate facility upon request or in the field
if proper arrangements are made.

2.3 CARE AND MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS

In order to maximize life span, and minimize down time, all MATRIX equipment
requires regular cleaning, and maintenance items performed on a scheduled basis.
This section contains detailed instructions on how to perform these items, the
frequency of which they should be done, and a check list to sign off each time
service is completed for a specific machine. Some basic tools and supplies will be
necessary to perform these tasks which include (but may not be limited to):

Metric Allen wrenches
#2 Phillips head screwdriver
Adjustable wrench
Torque wrench (capability to read foot lbs, and inch lbs)
Lint free cleaning cloths
Teflon based spray lubricant
Mild, water soluble, detergent – such as “Simple Green”, or other Matrix approved
product
Teflon based spray lubricant such as “Super Lube”, or other Matrix approved
product
Vacuum cleaner w/extendable hose and crevasse tool attachment

Please find the worksheet sample for our equipment provided in this manual
and make copies as needed, keeping them up to date as the required service/
maintenance items are performed. It is critical that you also log the accumulated
(total) amount of miles or running hours on the equipment each time service or
maintenance is performed.

You may periodically see addendums to this document, as the Matrix Technical
Support Team identifies items that require specific attention, the latest version will
always be available on the Matrix website, matrixfitness.com

DAILY MAINTENANCE ITEMS

1) Clean entire machine use water and mild detergent such as “Simple Green”,
or other Matrix approved solution (cleaning agents should be alcohol and
ammonia free).

QUARTERLY MAINTENANCE ITEMS

1) Check all connecting joint areas for tightness of bolt assemblies.

2) Ensure that there is little, or no free play at all joint assemblies once bolts
have been tightened. Installation of washer kits may be required if free play
does not come out from tightening bolts.

3) Remove plastic covers, and lubricate ball joint where the Link Arm and
Handlebar join together. A grease gun, with a needle fitting adapter is
required for this (Matrix recommends using Superlube brand grease with
PTFE {Teflon} additive).

4) Remove plastic covers, and lubricate Acme screw on left and right incline
motors (Matrix recommends using Superlube brand grease with PTFE {Teflon}
additive). See section 9.11 for incline motor access instructions.
