The Matrix Aura Series is a comprehensive line of multi-station strength training equipment designed for commercial environments, such as fitness facilities. This series includes various models like the G3-MS20, G3-MS24, G3-MS40, G3-MS50, G3-MS51, G3-MS52, G3-MS53, and G3-MS80, offering a range of configurations from single adjustable pulleys to 8-stack multi-stations. The equipment is built to provide a stable and effective workout experience, adhering to industry standards for stability and safety.
The primary function of the Matrix Aura Series is to facilitate strength training exercises for various muscle groups. Each model is designed to target specific movements or offer a versatile range of exercises. For instance, the G3-MS24 is an Adjustable Pulley system, allowing for a wide array of exercises that can target muscles like triceps and biceps through different cable movements. The G3-MS51 is a Lat Pulldown station, specifically designed for exercises that work the latissimus dorsi muscles, while the G3-MS52 is a Triceps Pressdown unit, focusing on triceps development. The G3-MS53 is a Low Row station, ideal for back and bicep exercises.
The multi-stack configurations, such as the G3-MS40 (4-stack), G3-MS50 (5-stack), and G3-MS80 (8-stack), integrate multiple individual stations into a single footprint. This design allows several users to exercise simultaneously, maximizing space efficiency in a fitness facility. These multi-stations typically combine elements like lat pulldowns, triceps pressdowns, low rows, and adjustable pulleys, offering a full-body workout potential within one unit. The adjustable cable crossover (G3-MS20) further enhances versatility, enabling users to perform a broad spectrum of functional and isolation exercises.
The equipment utilizes weight stacks for resistance, which are easily adjustable via a selector pin. This allows users to quickly change the resistance level to suit their strength and exercise requirements. The pulley systems are designed for smooth operation, ensuring a consistent and effective resistance throughout the range of motion.
Proper usage of the Matrix Aura Series equipment is crucial for safety and effectiveness. Users are instructed not to exceed the weight limits of the device. When applicable, safety stops should be set to an appropriate height, and all adjustment mechanisms, such as seat pads, leg pads, foot pads, and range of motion limiters, must be fully engaged to prevent unintentional movement and injury. This ensures that the equipment is correctly configured for the individual user's body and exercise.
Before beginning an exercise, users should sit on the bench (if applicable) and get into the appropriate position. Exercises should be performed using a weight that can be safely lifted and controlled, and movements should be executed in a controlled manner. After completing an exercise, the weight should be returned to its fully-supported start position.
The equipment is intended for supervised areas, with access and control regulated by the owner, who should consider the user's reliability, age, and experience. It is designed for indoor use only and is classified as a Class S product, suitable for commercial fitness environments.
Regular maintenance is essential to ensure the smooth operation, longevity, and safety of the Matrix Aura Series equipment. A maintenance checklist outlines daily, monthly, and bi-annual tasks.
Daily maintenance includes cleaning upholstery and grips with a mild soap and water or a non-ammonia based cleaner. Cables should also be inspected daily for cracks or frays and replaced immediately if found. If excessive slack is present, cables should be tightened without lifting the head plate.
Monthly maintenance tasks involve cleaning and lubricating the guide rods. Guide rods should be lubricated with a Teflon-based lubricant, applied with a cotton cloth, and then moved up and down the rods. Additionally, hardware and the overall frame should be inspected monthly.
Bi-annual maintenance is recommended for a more thorough inspection of the machine. Labels and nameplates should be maintained and replaced if unreadable or missing, as they contain important safety information. Any damaged or worn parts must be replaced with genuine replacement parts supplied by a local Matrix dealer.
Preventative maintenance is emphasized as key to smooth operation and minimizing liability. Equipment should be inspected at regular intervals. It is also specified that any person performing adjustments, maintenance, or repairs must be qualified to do so, with Matrix dealers offering service and maintenance training.
The equipment is designed to be installed on a stable and level surface. Manufacturer recommendations include securing all stationary Matrix strength equipment to the floor to stabilize it and prevent rocking or tipping over, a task that should be performed by a licensed contractor. Sliding equipment across the floor is discouraged due to the risk of tipping. All anchor points must be able to withstand 750 lbs. (3.3 kN) pull-out force.
For multi-stack configurations, a warning indicates that these are not stand-alone units and must be connected to other units in a Matrix-approved configuration for added stability. A minimum clearance width of 0.6 meters (24 inches) is required for access and passage around the equipment, with 0.91 meters (36 inches) being the ADA recommended clearance width for individuals in wheelchairs.
