6. Maintenance

Regular maintenance ensures the longevity and safe operation of your JELENS JP01 Pilates Reformer.

• Cleaning: Wipe down the frame, carriage, and upholstery with a damp cloth after each use. Use mild soap and water for deeper cleaning, avoiding harsh chemicals. The cushion and backrest are made of breathable leather for easy cleaning.
• Inspection: Periodically check all bolts, nuts, and moving parts for tightness. Ensure springs and ropes are free from fraying or damage.

• Storage: When not in use, the reformer can be folded and stored to save space. The folded size is approximately 48.4'' x 21.3'' x 9.5''.
