MAINTENANCE
All Response Fitness products are manufacturer by Diamondback Fitness and as such are engineered for years of near-silent operation. Let noise be your first indication that a repair or adjustment is required. Please, discontinue use immediately and contact an Authorized Service Technician or Diamondback Fitness Dealer if an unusual noise, scraping, knocking, grinding or vibration is detected. Often, a minor issue will become a major repair if ignored and use is continued.
Store the unit in a cool and dry environment.
Prior to each workout, confirm that all adjustment knobs are tightened, seat pins are engaged, and handlebars remain fixed. Inspect the pedals and cranks by pressing down firmly upon both at the same time, followed by pulling up. If any play is
detected, discontinue use immediately and seek help.
NOTE: As part of the Response Er6c normal installation and set-up process, all cranks must be tightened after 8 to 10 hours of use to ensure the parts are properly seated onto the axle. This important task is part of the initial break-in service as non-tightened cranks will become loose, ultimately requiring replacement. Damage of this type is only caused by under-tightened cranks and is not covered under the Warranty Policy. Tools have been provided for this service.
Your Response Er6c is manufactured of the most durable materials available. The plastics are made of strong and chemical- resistant ABS. The frame is produced of high-tensile steel and protected with an industrial-grade, powder-coating paint for the highest grade of corrosion resistance. The seats are covered with sealed polyester. However, it is important to note that perspiration can be extremely corrosive if allowed to accumulate on the machine. After training, always wipe down your unit with a mild soap solution followed by a thorough drying with a clean towel. Locating a small spray bottle and towel near the unit will
help ensure that your Response Er6c looks new for many years.
NOTE: Perspiration is very corrosive and if allowed to remain on the machine, will cause discoloration, fading, rust and odors. Unfortunately, these conditions are not covered under the Warranty Policy.
