MAINTENANCE AND CARE
Your PowerTower
TM
will offer you or your
rehabilitation or wellness facility and your
clientele years of easy operation if you follow
these simple tips for maintenance and care.
With periodic cleaning, moving parts and
rolling surfaces will maintain their smooth
function.
Use chrome or car polish on all chrome parts
to keep your PowerTower looking its best and
to prevent dust build-up. Clean rail surfaces
on a regular basis with a non oil-based
window cleaner.
CAUTION: DO NOT use any lubricants or
silicone based products on the rails or rollers.
This will cause the rollers to slide rather than
roll, and will damage the rollers.
You may use lubricant on the bearings, folding
hinges and chains when needed. When
lubricating these parts, remove any residue
of lubricant from the cables, rails or roller
surfaces.
Clean the Glideboard (G) material with a
non oil-based window cleaner. DO NOT use
Armor All
®
or like substances. These will
make the glideboard slippery. Wipe down
your PowerTower with a clean cloth.
Check and/or tighten the shoulder bolts in
the rails weekly
.
Periodically check the following parts for signs
of fraying, cracking or wear:
Power Cord (S) • Handles (U) • Dynamic Arm
Pulley System (D) Cables and Nylon Coating •
Pulleys • Rollers • Glideboard (G) • Folding
Platform (I) • Telescoping Squat Stand (H)
Frame • Tower (A) • Tower Base (P) • Up/Down
Switch (ZZ) • Foam Rubber Parts
Replace all parts that show signs of wear.

RESISTANCE CHART
HOW TO READ THE RESISTANCE CHART
FOR POWER TOWER
TM
(SEE NEXT PAGE TO VIEW CHART)
PowerTower uses a variable angle incline plane
to create exercise resistance by modifying the
user’s body weight—a steeper angle generates
more resistance. The Resistance Chart for
PowerTower is calculated to indicate the
resistance load at each level relative to a
percentage of body weight. Down the left side
of the chart, note the PowerTower levels 1-11.
Each level’s degree of slope is noted. Across
the top, the numbers represent body weight in
ten-pound increments. Below each weight
reference in pounds are two corresponding
columns. Each left column represents a
percentage of body weight. Each right column
shows the actual amount of load in pounds. An
additional Resistance Chart has also been
supplied with weight references in kilograms.
PowerTower can be adjusted between marked
levels.
NOTE: Chart is accurate within a 4%
margin of error.
Example in lbs: a 150 lb person using level 5
would be lifting 45 pounds or 30% of total body
weight. When figuring exercises that incorporate
the bilateral pulley cables, use 50% of the
charted numbers.
Example in kg: a 70 kg person using level 5
would be lifting 21 kilograms or 30% of total
body weight. When figuring exercises that
incorporate both Dynamic Arm Pulley System
(D) cables, use 50% of the charted numbers.
