MAINTENANCE / START
GETTING STARTED
As a facility offering the use of a ELEVATE Core ADJ to customers, or as a personal user
of the product, you – the owner of the product – assumes the responsibility to become
familiar with the guidelines relative to safe use of the product and to convey these
guidelines to all users. Read all safety, warnings and usage instructions before using the
ELEVATE Core ADJ. Care and maintenance for this product are included to promote safe,
enjoyable and prolonged use of this equipment.
When using your ELEVATE Core ADJ, wear athletic shoes and comfortable lightweight
clothing. Before you begin, check to ensure that all parts are in place and working
properly. Remember to control the glideboard at all times, particularly when getting on or
off your ELEVATE Core ADJ.
WARNING
Always control the glideboard while using your Total Gym
ELEVATE Core ADJ. ELEVATE Core ADJ is rated
at a maximum user weight capacity of 400 lbs [181 kg].
MAINTENANCE & CARE
Your Total Gym ELEVATE Core ADJ will
offer you or your facility and your clientele
years of easy operation if you follow these
simple tips for maintenance and care.
With periodic cleaning, moving parts and
rolling surfaces will maintain their smooth
function. The ELEVATE Core ADJ is not
safe to use if it is not maintained regularly
as follows. Clean rail surfaces on a regular
basis with a noncorrosive cleaner like
soap and water or waterless cleaner or
just wipe clean with a dry towel. Some
black powder residue is normal on the
inside of the rails. All other parts can be
cleaned the same way or antibacterial
wipes may be used. If your ELEVATE Core
ADJ is damaged, please discontinue use
until defective components are repaired.
Please pay special attention to the
following wear items: rollers, cables and
handle grips.
CAUTION! DO NOT USE ANY LUBRICANTS
OR SILICONE-BASED PRODUCTS on the
rails or wheels. This will cause the wheels
to slide rather than roll and will damage
the wheels. You can clean the glideboard
material with a non oil-based window
cleaner. DO NOT USE ARMOR ALL® OR
LIKE SUBSTANCES. These will make
the glideboard slippery. Wipe down your
ELEVATE Core ADJ with a clean cloth.
MAINTENANCE SCHEDULE
