Maintenance

Regular maintenance ensures the longevity and safe operation of your GORILLA SPORTS Multifunction Weight Bench.

• Upholstery Inspection: Inspect the padded seat and backrest for any signs of wear, tears, or damage. Damaged upholstery should be repaired or replaced to prevent further deterioration and maintain hygiene.
