MAINTAIN ALL EQUIPMENT Preventative maintenance is the key 
to smooth operating equipment. Equipment needs to be inspected 
at regular intervals. Defective components must be replaced 
immediately. Improperly working equipment must be kept out of use 
until it is repaired. Ensure that any person(s) making adjustments 
or performing maintenance or repair of any kind is qualified to do 
so. Matrix Fitness Systems will provide service and maintenance 
training at our corporate facility upon request or in the field if proper 
arrangements are made.
