Vitality Series Selectorized Line Owner's Manual: Important Safety Guidelines for Owners 1
Follow these guidelines to maintain proper working condition of the
equipment:
Important: Do not modify the equipment or any of its parts, or permanently remove
any part from the equipment. Do not use accessory attachments that are not
recommended by Precor, as such attachments might cause injuries.
Qualified technicians must perform all regular maintenance.
Check that all fasteners are securely tightened. Cables should be secured
at both end connections and properly threaded. Weight stacks should be
secure and functioning properly. Handle attachments should be properly
connected.
Make sure that trainers, facility personnel, and maintenance technicians
understand how to use the equipment, know important safety guidelines,
and can recognize potential problems such as a worn cable, loose
hardware, or cracked weld.
Strength training requires a significant focus by the facility and its staff to
maintain the quality of the fitness environment. If possible, the facility
should provide direct supervision of the fitness equipment at all times by
people knowledgeable about the safe operation of the equipment and
trained to recognize potential problems.
If any staff member witnesses unsafe use of the equipment, he or she
should address the user directly, demonstrate the proper technique, and
review the Important Safety Information for Users. Precor recommends posting
a copy of the Important Safety Information for Users near the equipment in a
prominent location.
Make sure the equipment is stable and placed on a solid surface. The
equipment is designed to be freestanding; however, it can be bolted to the
floor for extra stability. Precor highly recommends that the equipment be
bolted to the floor to reduce the risk of toppling the equipment due to
improper use. Since floor construction varies, please consult a professional
building engineer for proper fastening.
Locate the equipment at least 40 inches (1 meter) away from walls or
furniture on either side of the equipment, and 40 inches (1 meter) away
from objects behind the equipment. For Functional Training equipment,
make sure that the operating space is large enough to allow the cables to
be fully extended in all possible directions.
Check the equipment thoroughly based on the recommended inspection
schedules outlined in this manual, including daily, weekly, monthly and
annual checks. Ensure all bolt connections are tight and that the threaded
cables are properly and tightly secured at both ends.
Place an “out-of-order” sign on the equipment during maintenance of the
equipment or the surrounding area. Users should never be allowed to
operate the equipment until it has been inspected and works properly. If a
piece of equipment needs service, keep it out of use until it is repaired.
When working with the weight stacks, do not attempt to free any jammed
assemblies without assistance as this may cause injury. With the help of
another person, carefully return the weight stack to the proper position
with the top plate resting on the first weight.
Do not allow the equipment to be used if the top plate or weight stack is
pinned in a raised position. With the help of another person, carefully
return the equipment to the proper position with the top plate resting on
the first weight. Inspect the cable to make sure that it is seated in all of the
pulleys.
Do not place the equipment outdoors or on wet surfaces.
