Recommended Maintenance Schedule
Daily
- Wipe monorail with a cloth after use.
Every 50 hours of use (weekly for institutional users)
- Clean and lubricate the chain with the oil provided (or 20w Motor Oil or 20W 3-in-1 oil).
- Check the socket screws used to install the front leg and framelock for tightness. Also check that each toe piece nut and bolt is tight.
- Check battery power on monitor.
Every 250 hours of use (monthly for institutional users)
- Inspect chain for stiff links. If thorough lubrication does not help the chain should be replaced.
- Inspect chain-handle connection for wear. If the hole has become elongated, or the U-bolt is worn halfway through, the entire connection should be replaced.
- Tighten the shockcord if the handle does not return all the way to the fan enclosure.
- Loosen or tighten the nuts on the Performance Monitor arm joints as necessary.
- Check for dust inside the flywheel with a torch. Vacuum if needed.
Approximately every 800 hours of use
- Replace the batteries in the Performance Monitor (PM2, PM2+, PM3, PM4, PM5). The PM2 and PM2+ use 2 x AA, the PM3 2 x D, the PM4 uses either the rechargable battery pack supplied or you can replace that with 2 x D batteries and the PM5 uses 2 x D cell batteries.
NOTE - The monitor is a sealed unit, do not take it apart. Any attempt to disassemble it will void your warranty. Contact Indoor Sport Services if you experience any problems with this part.
