Startrac Elliptical Edge Preventive Maintenance

Nov 13, 2022

The Preventive Maintenance schedule for the Elliptical Edge is listed below. It lists the time interval when each procedure should be performed, and provides the general steps necessary to perform the task. In some cases, the list will refer to detailed maintenance procedures provided in the Elliptical Edge service manual.

Daily · Clean dust and dirt from the unit using a soft, clean cloth dampened with a non-abrasive liquid cleaner (Fantastic, 409, Simple Green etc). Give particular attention to the display panel, handrails and heart rate grips (if used).

Weekly · Clean dust, dirt, oils and other contaminants from inside the skate rails (shuttle tracks), and on the shuttle rollers, using a soft clean cloth. Never use a wire brush or any abrasive material to clean the skate rails or shuttle rollers.

IMPORTANT: Regular cleaning of the skate rails and shuttle rollers is CRITICAL to proper operation of the unit. Accumulations of dust and dirt on the skate rails or shuttle rollers can result in rough operation and excessive wear on the skate rails and shuttle rollers.

Vacuum the floor under and around the unit.

Monthly · Check the display panel and handrails to ensure they are securely attached to the unit. Retighten the screws as needed. ·

Check each shuttle for excessive side-play. Realign the shuttles as needed (See Shuttle Alignment in the EE Service Manual). ·

Check each stride belt for proper tension. Adjust the stride belt tension as needed (See Adjusting Stride Belt Tension in the EE Service Manual).
