General Safety and Maintenance Manual: Before You Begin 5
Before You Begin
To ensure safe equipment operation, Precor recommends
implementing a thorough maintenance program that incorporates
regular safety inspections by qualified maintenance technicians as
outlined in this manual.
This manual explains how to maintain the Precor Icarian line of
commercial strength equipment. It provides information about items
that need to be inspected and maintained on a daily, weekly, monthly,
and annual basis. You should perform those tasks that are appropriate
for the equipment you are maintaining, and skip those tasks that do
not apply. To help you, a checklist is located at the back of this manual
that you can follow during your maintenance checks to ensure that
nothing appropriate is missed and that your inspection process is
documented.
This manual covers the general maintenance procedures that you can
do in the club. However, if the equipment requires service beyond the
maintenance procedures covered in this manual, refer to Obtaining
Service.
Important: Always purchase replacement parts and hardware from
Precor. These parts are tested and manufactured specifically for the
Precor Icarian line of commercial strength equipment. If you use parts
not approved by the manufacturer, you could void the Precor Limited
Warranty, and may cause injury to users.
Precor recommends that maintenance technicians thoroughly read
and understand the safety guidelines and maintenance procedures
covered in this manual.
Note: If the equipment requires assembly, a separate assembly guide
will accompany it and will provide instructions. For information on how
to use a piece of equipment, refer to the user instruction placard found
on the equipment.
