PREVENTIVE MAINTENANCE

MAINTENANCE SCHEDULE

Star Trac strongly recommends performing regular preventive maintenance on your INSTINCT ADJUSTABLE BENCHES. Without regularly scheduled maintenance, normal wear and tear may cause cumulative effects, such as misalignment or prema- ture wear, resulting in downtime. For this reason, we highly recommend following the maintenance schedules. Additionally, unusu- al symptoms, such as excessive noise during use, stiffness or free play in moving parts, etc., should be investigated and necessary corrective actions (adjustment or parts replacement) should be performed. If any components are found to be worn or damaged, the unit should be removed from service until repairs can be made. Only components supplied or approved by Star Trac shall be used to maintain and/or repair the unit.

DAILY MAINTENANCE

■Wipe down and inspect the framework and other structural components (see FRAMEWORK MAINTENANCE on page 15 for requirements). Check all attaching hardware for security. Tighten as needed.
