Matrix T1x Care And Maintenance Instructions page 8

1) Clean the entire machine using water and mild detergent such as "Simple Green", or other Matrix
approved solutions (cleaning agents should be alcohol and ammonia free). For weight stack shields use
glass cleaner such as "Windex".
1) Visibly inspect the belt and cable assemblies for signs of wear – tearing, frayed edges, cracked or
missing jacketing. Immediately replace any belt or cable with any apparent damage to it. Any
belt replacement must be done using the torque specifications below.
For belting with the "fold over" type clamp (Figure 23), use this specification:
The bolts (with blue Loc-tite – this is important as it acts as a lubricant and is
related to the torque spec) should be tightened to 40 inch pounds using a torque
wrench. The bolts should be tightened in a uniform pattern.
For belting with the "barrel" type clamp (Figure 24), use this specification:
The bolts (with blue Loc-tite – this is important as it acts as a lubricant and is
related to the torque spec) should be tightened to 25 foot pounds using a torque
wrench. The bolts should be tightened in a uniform pattern.

1) Clean and lubricate the weight stack guide rods. Use a Teflon based spray lube such as "Super Lube
Multi-Purpose", or any other Matrix approved lubricant.
2) Check any adjustable seat/pad mechanism for proper locking pin operation, and lubricate the sliding
mechanism.
1) Check the hardware to insure that all accessible fastener items are secured snuggly on the equipment.
