ProsourceFit Puzzle Exercise Mat Instruction Manual

Introduction

The ProsourceFit Puzzle Exercise Mat is designed to provide a durable, comfortable, and protective surface for various activities, including home workouts, exercise equipment placement, and children's play areas. Made from high-density EVA foam, these interlocking tiles offer excellent support, absorb impact and noise, and are water-resistant for easy maintenance. This manual provides detailed instructions for the proper setup, usage, and care of your exercise mat to ensure optimal performance and longevity.

Setup

The ProsourceFit Puzzle Exercise Mat features an easy-to-assemble interlocking design, allowing for quick setup and customization to fit your space.

Assembly Instructions:

1. Unpack Components: Carefully remove all foam tiles and end borders from the packaging. Each package contains 6 tiles and 12 end borders for a finished look.
2. Prepare Surface: Ensure the floor where the mat will be placed is clean and dry.
3. Interlock Tiles: Begin by connecting the interlocking edges of the foam tiles. Align the puzzle pieces and gently press them together until they fit snugly.
4. Add End Borders: Once the main mat area is assembled, attach the straight end borders to create a smooth, polished edge around the perimeter. These borders snap into place just like the tiles.
5. Customize (Optional): The tiles can be easily cut with a utility knife to fit irregular shapes or around obstacles like support poles, as needed.

Maintenance

Proper care and maintenance will extend the life of your ProsourceFit Puzzle Exercise Mat.

Cleaning Instructions:

• Regular Cleaning: For routine cleaning, simply vacuum or sweep the mat to remove dust and debris.
• Spot Cleaning: For spills or tougher stains, apply a combination of warm water and mild dish soap with a soft cloth or towel. Gently rub the affected area to clean.
• Drying: Allow the mat to air dry completely after cleaning. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners, as these can damage the foam material.
• Moisture Barrier: The water-resistant design prevents moisture from soaking through to your floor, making cleanup easy.

Troubleshooting

Here are solutions to common issues you might encounter with your ProsourceFit Puzzle Exercise Mat.

Common Issues & Solutions:

• Tiles Separating: Ensure all interlocking edges are fully engaged. If tiles frequently separate, check if the underlying surface is uneven. Re-adjusting the layout or placing the mat on a flatter surface may help.
• Initial Odor (Off-gassing): New foam products may have a slight odor upon unpacking. This is normal and will dissipate over time. To accelerate the process, unroll the mats and air them out in a well-ventilated area for 24-48 hours before full installation.
• Slipping on Hard Floors: While the mats have a non-skid texture, extreme conditions or very smooth underlying surfaces might cause slight movement. Ensure the mats are laid flat and consider placing them against a wall or heavy equipment to minimize shifting.
• Minor Indentations: Heavy or sharp objects left on the mat for extended periods may cause temporary indentations. These typically recover over time. For permanent equipment, rotate the mats periodically or use additional protective pads under heavy points.
