Annual Maintenance; Shroud Removal - Precor Vitality Series Maintenance Manual

Annual maintenance

Perform the following tasks annually to maintain the equipment and keep it operating smoothly.
Weight Stack Annual Maintenance
Once a year, Precor recommends disassembling the weight stack to clean and inspect it thoroughly.
Carefully remove the cable and guide rods from the weight stack. Completely disassemble the
l
weight stack in a well-ventilated area, away from the exercise floor.
Inspect weight plates and clean them thoroughly. Cracked or broken plates should be replaced
l
immediately (refer to Obtaining Service to purchase replacements). Clean each plate
individually and inspect guide bushings.
Inspect the bushings of the top weight plate and each individual weight plate, and replace a
l
plate if it is excessively worn or broken.
Clean the selector stem and inspect it for wear and damage.
l
Reassemble the weight stack.
l
Wipe down the weight stack enclosures (shrouds) with a damp cloth as needed. Inspect all
l
fasteners to make sure the shroud is securely mounted.
Important: Precor recommends that you replace worn and damaged cables during routine
maintenance. It is recommended that all cables be replaced annually.

Shroud removal

The Vitality™ Series Selectorized Line includes a shroud that must be removed to perform the
maintenance described in this manual.
Important: Do not remove the shroud while the equipment is in use.
Use the following instructions to remove the shroud:
1. Remove the four M6 x 16 mm pan-head Philips screws that secure the top cap to the weight
tower frame. Set the screws aside.
2. Lift the outside shroud straight up until its tabs are clear of the shroud clips mounted on the
weight tower uprights, then remove the outside shroud.
3. Repeat the previous step to remove the inside shroud. Perform the necessary maintenance.
When finished, replace the shroud.
4. Align the tabs on both sides of the inside shroud with the slots on the shroud clips (Figure 9).
5. Press the edges of the shroud in, then down, to secure the shroud.
6. Repeat the previous two steps to mount the outside shroud on the unit.
Important: Just inside the lip of the top cap are ribs that align the top cap with the outside and
inside shrouds. In the following step, make sure that the top edges of the two shroud panels fit
between these ribs and the lip of the top cap.
7. Slide the top cap over the top edges of the two shrouds, making sure that the top edges of the
shrouds align correctly with the top cap.
8. Secure the top cap to the weight tower frame using the hardware removed earlier and tighten
screws.
