STRENGTH EQUIPMENT
TOOLS NEEDED
• 8 mm Allen socket and ratcheting wrench
• 8 mm Allen T-handle wrench
Matrix equipment requires the following PTFE-based, non-aerosol lubricants:
• Super Lube with PTFE pump spray and grease ( order here)
• Tri-Flow with PTFE pump spray and grease (order here)
Note: PTFE is Polytetrafluoroethylene (Teflon)
LUBRICATING EQUIPMENT
1. For Ultra use the 6 mm Allen socket to remove the top cover. Once the bolts are removed, take care when
lifting the cover as there will be a rep counter wire that needs to be disconnected. If there is a monitor
attached to the cover, the monitor wires must be disconnected.
For Versa use the 6 mm Allen socket, remove the top cover. Once the bolts are removed, take care when
lifting the cover as there will be a rep counter wire that needs to be disconnected.
For Aura go to step 3.
2. Once the top cover is removed, remove the front weight stack shrouds.
3. With a clean rag, wipe the guide rods and the top of the weight stack so they are free from dirt and dust.
4. Spray a dierent rag with the required lubricant and wipe up and down the guide rod gently.
5. Holding the lubricant bottle 1"–2" from the top weight plate bushings, spray a small amount of lubricant
between the bushing and the guide rod. Allow the lubricant to run down the guide rod inside the
weight stack.
6. Do a few reps with light weight. Listen for noise and feel for friction. Repeat step 4 or 5 as necessary.
7. Wipe any overspray o the top weight plate.
8. Reinstall shrouds and top cover. Remember to plug in the necessary wires.
