Maintenance Information
1) Lubrication of all moving parts is essential to the longevit
and optimal performance of your Muscle IV Home Gym.
Initial lubrication of some parts of your gym have been done
at the factory, but the weight stack guide rods must be
lubricated at the time of assembly. We recommend a clear
aerosol, silicone or Teflon spray.
Note: Do not use oil based lubricants as they will attract
dust,dirt, and grime and will eventually gum up and erode
bushings and sealed bearings.
2) All pulleys and bushings should be checked regularly for
signs of wear.
3) Check and adjust tension on cables periodically as it will
maintain proper anatomical function.
4) Periodically check all moving parts, upholstery and grips
for wear. If replacement is necessary, please contact your
local Tuff Stuff retailer or call our Customer Service
Department.
5) As needed, upholstery may be cleaned with a mild
solution of soap and water. Regular use of a vinyl treatment
will add to the life and appearance of your upholstery.
6) All chrome plated surfaces should be cleaned regularly to
prolong the life and luster of the finish. Wipe machine down
with a damp cloth and dry thoroughly each day. At least
once a week your chrome equipment should be polished
with a commercial grade or automotive type chrome polish.
Tool Requirements
1) Two 3/4” Open-end wrenches
2) Two 9/16” Open-end wrenches
3) One rubber mallet
4) Needle nose pliers
5) One can Silicone Spray/ Teflon Spray Lubricant
6) Snap ring pliers
7) Hex Key 3/16” (Supplied)
