6. Troubleshooting

If you encounter any issues with your Niceday Hydraulic Rowing Machine, please refer to the following common solutions:

• No Resistance / Inconsistent Resistance: Ensure the resistance knob is properly engaged and adjusted. If the issue persists, check for any obstructions around the hydraulic cylinder.
• Squeaking Noises: Check all connection points for tightness. A slight application of silicone-based lubricant to moving parts (excluding the hydraulic cylinder) may resolve minor squeaks.
• Digital Monitor Not Displaying: Check the battery. Replace if necessary. Ensure the sensor cable is securely connected.
• Machine Feels Unstable: Verify that the machine is on a flat surface and all stabilizer feet are making firm contact with the floor. Tighten any loose frame bolts.
