Maintenance

• Cleaning: Wipe down the bench with a damp cloth after each use to remove sweat and dirt. Use a mild soap solution for deeper cleaning if necessary, then wipe dry. Avoid abrasive cleaners.
• Inspection: Periodically inspect all nuts, bolts, and moving parts for tightness and wear. Tighten any loose fasteners. Check upholstery for tears or excessive wear.
• Lubrication: Moving parts and adjustment pins may benefit from light lubrication with a silicone-based spray if they become stiff. Do not over-lubricate.
