PREVENTATIVE MAINTENANCE

Preventative maintenance is crucial to maintaining the function and safety of this equipment. Your facility must establish written guidelines for preventative maintenance and keep written or online records of the maintenance performed on these products. As a minimum, the items presented in the Safety Instructions section of this document and the items that follow here, should be included in your maintenance program.

IMPORTANT! Always purchase replacement parts from TRUE. Many parts are tested and manufactured specifically for TRUE equipment. Use of unapproved parts may cause serious injury and/or void the limited warranty.

DAILY INSPECTION AND MAINTENANCE

The following items are critical to the safety of users and maintenance staff as well as ensuring the optimum performance of the machines. These inspections should be performed each day before the equipment is subject to use. TRUE is not responsible for performing or scheduling regular maintenance or inspections.

WEEKLY INSPECTION AND MAINTENANCE

The following items are critical to the safety of users and maintenance staff as well as ensuring the optimum performance of the machines. These inspections should be performed each week. TRUE is not responsible for performing or scheduling regular maintenance or inspections.

OTHER SCHEDULED PREVENTATIVE MAINTENANCE

TRUE recommends that scheduled maintenance be performed by a qualified service technician. Please contact your dealer or visit www.truefitness.com to contact a local TRUE authorized service technician.

CLEANING THE EQUIPMENT

Daily Cleaning

Wipe all machines with a water dampened cloth and dry completely. This includes painted parts, chrome plated parts (except guide rods), plastic parts, and upholstered pads. It is important not to leave parts damp. This will increase the potential for corrosion to occur.

CAUTION: Certain anti-bacterial cleaners and other harsh cleaning agents can induce corrosion on the machine components. These solutions can also dry out and cause cracking and splitting on the upholstery.

Heavy Duty Cleaning

CAUTION: Do not use any acidic cleaners. Doing so will weaken the paint or powder coatings and may void the TRUE Warranty. Never pour or spray liquids on any part of the equipment. Allow the equipment to dry completely before using.

CAUTION: If you determine that the equipment needs service, make sure that the equipment cannot be used inadvertently and ensure other users know that the machine needs service.
