M

AINTENANCE

CAUTION: DO NOT use lacquer thinner, acetone, or other solvents to clean powder-coated finishes on the framework

or other structural components. Solvents will dull the finish, and contain components that may remove the epoxy-

based powder from the frame.

Framework and other structural components should be wiped down on a daily basis using a moistened with water. This will

increase the longevity of protective powder-coat finishes. The framework should be inspected while cleaning for evidence of fatigue

cracks, scratches or chips in the finish, loose hardware, and other areas that may require attention.

Apply easy-application car wax to all powder-coated surfaces quarterly. Regular waxing will aid in preventing premature rusting

due to corrosives found in perspiration, and will allow loose particles to be removed more easily when performing the daily wipe-

down.

Procedures to repair scratches and chips depend on the severity of the damage:

■Surface scratches can generally be repaired by polishing with an automotive rubbing compound.

■Deep scratches and chips must be repaired by filling the damaged area using a “touch-up” bottle of color-matched paint

(available through the STAR TRAC Parts Department). Fill the damaged area sparingly, using two or more coats. Allow

the area to dry thoroughly between coats. Once the touch-up is complete, it can be left “as is”, or it can be blended and color-

sanded to the surrounding surface.

NOTE: The process of blending and sanding repaired areas to the surrounding surface is difficult. It should be attempted ONLY

by persons knowledgeable in this area.

The weight stack shrouds are made of PETG (glycol-modified polyethylene terephthalate). Proper cleaning is necessary to pre-

serve the appearance of the shrouds. The following cleaners are compatible with PETG: Original Dawn®, Freon® T.F., Palmolive

Liquid®, Top Job® and Windex® with Ammonia D.

CAUTION: Use ONLY recommended cleaning agents and procedures when cleaning the weight stack shrouds:

■DO NOT use abrasive or highly alkaline cleaners to clean the shrouds.

■DO NOT use scrape the shrouds with squeegees, razor blades or other sharp instruments. DO NOT scrub or use

brushes on the shrouds.

■DO NOT use Benzene, gasoline, acetone or tetrachloride to clean the shrouds.

■DO NOT clean the shrouds in hot sun or at elevated temperatures.

Wash the shrouds using a clean sponge or soft cloth, and a solution of mild soap or detergent and lukewarm water. Rinse well with

clean water, and dry thoroughly with a chamois or moist cellulose sponge to prevent water spots.

Remove stubborn accumulations (paint, grease, scuff marks) before drying by rubbing lightly with Isopropyl alcohol. Remove

labels, placards or other adhesive residue using kerosene. If solvent does not penetrate the adhesive, heat the area using a hand-

held blow dryer to soften the adhesive and aid in removal.

Clean all areas treated with solvent using a clean sponge or soft cloth, and a solution of mild soap or detergent and lukewarm

water. Rinse thoroughly with clean water.

PHOLSTERY

AINTENANCE

CAUTION: DO NOT use cleaners such as Lysol®, Armor All®, Windex®, or other abrasive detergents to clean uphol-

stered surfaces. These products will remove moisture from the Naugahyde® upholstery, resulting in premature

cracking.

Upholstered cushions should be cleaned on a daily basis to prevent damaged due to corrosives found in perspiration.

Wipe the top and sides of upholstered cushions using a cloth moistened with a solution of one part lanolin hand cleaner to nine

parts water. After cleaning, wipe down using a dry towel to remove any residue.

labels for any reason; they contain important informa-

tion. If illegible or missing, contact the STAR TRAC

Parts Department for replacement.

16. SECURING EQUIPMENT: The INSTINCT

ADJUSTABLE BENCHES MUST be secured to the

floor to stabilize and eliminate rocking or tipping over.

This must be performed by a licensed contractor. DO

NOT use the UNIT if it is not set up and located on a

solid level surface.

17. Make sure that each machine is set up and operated on a

solid level surface. DO NOT install equipment on an

uneven surface.

18. MAINTAIN ALL EQUIPMENT: Preventative mainte-

nance is the key to ensuring smooth and reliable opera-

tion of the INSTINCT ADJUSTABLE BENCHES,as

well as keeping your liability to a minimum. Inspect the

unit prior to use. Give particular attention to the areas

most susceptible to wear. DO NOT use if the unit is dam-

aged or inoperable.

19. Ensure that adjustment, maintenance and/or repair of

the INSTINCT ADJUSTABLE BENCHES is per-

formed by qualified personnel ONLY. Immediately

replace worn or damaged components. If unable to imme-

diately replace worn or damaged components then

remove the INSTINCT ADJUSTABLE BENCHES

from service until repairs are made.

20. Keep a repair log of all maintenance activities.

21. Routinely inspect all accessory clips that join attach-

ments to weight belts or cables, and replace at the first

sign of wear.

22 Use only weight selector pins supplied by STAR TRAC

on weight stacks. Substitutes are forbidden.

23. Cables and belts pose an extreme liability if used when

frayed. Always replace any cable or belt at first sign of

wear (consult STAR TRAC Product Support if uncertain).

24. Fully insert the weight selector pin when selecting the

desired weight. Partially inserted pins can cause weights

to fall unexpectedly. NEVER remove the weight selector

pin if any weights are suspended. NEVER attempt to

release jammed weights or parts.

25. DO NOT use Lat Pulldown Bars on Multi-jungle

Crossover cable systems or any other pulley systems.

These bars are designed for lat pulldown machines

ONLY. If improperly used, the Lat Bar could fall unex-

pectedly, striking the user when weight selector pin is

removed.

26. Lat Pulldown Machines pose a danger if used with worn

or damaged cables and connecting links. The user can be

struck in the head if the cable or related parts break dur-

ing use.

27. When adjusting any seat, knee hold down pad, range of

motion limiter, foothold pad or any other type of adjuster,

make certain that the adjusting pin is fully engaged in

the retainer hole to avoid injury.

NOTE: It is the sole responsibility of the user/owner or facility

operator to ensure that regular maintenance is performed.

MAINTENANCE SCHEDULE

Star Trac strongly recommends performing regular preventive maintenance on your INSTINCT ADJUSTABLE BENCHES.

Without regularly scheduled maintenance, normal wear and tear may cause cumulative effects, such as misalignment or prema-

ture wear, resulting in downtime. For this reason, we highly recommend following the maintenance schedules. Additionally, unusu-

al symptoms, such as excessive noise during use, stiffness or free play in moving parts, etc., should be investigated and necessary

corrective actions (adjustment or parts replacement) should be performed. If any components are found to be worn or damaged,

the unit should be removed from service until repairs can be made. Only components supplied or approved by Star Trac shall be

used to maintain and/or repair the unit.
