The EFX will continue to run smoothly and efficiently as long as you maintain it.
You are responsible for typical maintenance tasks such as, cleaning the unit to keep
it free from dust and dirt accumulation. If you fail to maintain the EFX as described
below, it could affect or void the Precor limited warranty.
CLEANING THE EQUIPMENT
DANGER — TO REDUCE THE RISK OF ELECTRICAL SHOCK, ALWAYS UNPLUG THE UNIT FROM
ITS
POWER SOURCE BEFORE CLEANING OR PERFORMING ANY MAINTENANCE TASKS.
Most of the working mechanisms are protected inside the casing. However, for
efficient operation, the EFX relies on low friction. To keep the friction low, the
EFX rollers, rails, and internal mechanisms must be as clean as possible.
Everyday use a soft cloth, dampened (not dripping wet) in a solution of mild
soap and water, to clean all exposed surfaces on the EFX. To clean the ramp
and roller wheels, position one foot pedal at the top of the ramp (the other will
automatically be positioned at the bottom). Clean the exposed ramp and roller
wheel surfaces. Switch the foot pedal position to finish cleaning the ramp. Gen-
tly, lift the roller wheel and rotate it while you wipe it. This helps removes any
dust or dirt which might affect the smooth operation of the unit.
CAUTION: Never pour water or spray liquids on the display console or the
EFX. Allow the EFX to dry completely before using.
Periodically, clean the groves on the foot pedals using a soft nylon scrub brush.
Vacuum the floor underneath the unit every week to prevent the accumulation
of dust and dirt.
The Precor Heart Rate equipment requires little maintenance beyond keeping it
dust free. Dampen a sponge or soft cloth in mild soap and water to wipe the
touch-sensitive elements on the handrail or to clean the POLAR
®
chest strap.
Dry the surface thoroughly with a clean towel.
STORING THE POLAR
®
CHEST STRAP
Store the chest strap transmitter in a place where dust and dirt cannot accumu-
late on it such as, a closet or drawer. Be sure to keep the chest strap protected
from extremes in temperature. Do not store it in an area that may be exposed to
temperatures below 32 degrees Fahrenheit.
SERVICING THE EFX
Do not attempt to service the EFX yourself except for the maintenance tasks
described in this manual. The unit does not contain any user-serviceable parts
that require lubrication. For information about product operation or service, call
888-665-4404.
LONG TERM STORAGE
When the EFX is not in use for any length of time, turn it OFF. Ensure that the
power cord is unplugged from the wall outlet and is positioned so that it will not
become damaged or interfere with other equipment or people.
