Strength Cable and Belt Guide 
 
 
     
Keeping strength cables and belts tensioned properly is not part of the product warranty and 
should be maintained by the facility. This document will walk you through how to properly 
tension Matrix strength cables and belts and, also show you examples of damaged cables.  
Cables can stretch over their life and should be checked WEEKLY for proper tension and 
inspected for damage. Without proper tension, users will lose some range of motion and excess 
wear to the cables can occur.
