Important safety guidelines for owners
Follow these guidelines to maintain proper working condition of the equipment:
CAUTION: Do not modify the equipment or any of its parts, or permanently
remove any part from the equipment. Do not use accessory attachments that
are not recommended by Precor, as such attachments might cause injuries.
Regular maintenance must be performed by qualified technicians.
l
Ensure trainers, facility personnel, and maintenance technicians understand how to use the
l
equipment, know important safety guidelines, and can recognize potential problems such as a
cracked weld.
Strength training requires significant focus by the facility and its staff to maintain the quality of
l
the fitness environment. If possible, the facility should provide direct supervision of the fitness
equipment at all times by people knowledgeable about the safe operation of the equipment
and trained to recognize potential problems.
If any facility personnel witness unsafe use of the equipment, staff should address the user
l
directly, demonstrate the proper technique, and review with the users the Important Safety
Information for Users. Precor recommends posting a copy of the Important Safety Information
for Users near the equipment in a prominent location.
Make sure the equipment is stable and placed on a solid surface.
l
This equipment is designed for a variety of exercises and has cable lengths that may exceed
l
the minimum dimensions of this equipment. Provide sufficient space for use, access, and
passage around the equipment.
Check the equipment thoroughly based on the recommended inspection schedules outlined in
l
this manual, including daily, weekly, monthly and annual checks. Place an "out-of-order" sign
on the equipment during maintenance of the equipment or the surrounding area.
Users should never be allowed to operate the equipment until it has been inspected and
l
works properly. If a piece of equipment needs service, keep it out of use until it is repaired.
Make sure all staff know not to allow anyone to use the equipment until it is working properly.
l
When working with the weight stacks, do not attempt to free any jammed assemblies alone as
l
this may cause injury. With the help of another person, carefully return the weight stack to the
proper position with the top plate resting on the first weight.
Do not allow the equipment to be used if the top plate or weight stack is pinned in a raised
l
position. With the help of another person, carefully return the equipment to the proper
position with the top plate resting on the first weight. Inspect the cable to make sure that it is
seated in all of the pulleys.
Do not place the equipment outdoors or on wet surfaces.
