solution of mild soap and warm water.
•If necessary, use a soft bristle brush with the
cleaning solution.
•Rinse thoroughly using a soft cloth dampened
with clean water. Dry thoroughly.
2. Upholstery—Difficult stains:
•Spray the stain with a non-abrasive household
cleaner such as FORMULA 409®cleaner,
SIMPLE GREEN®,or a similar product.
•Rub the area gently and let it sit for a few min-
utes.
•Rinse thoroughly using a soft cloth dampened
with clean water.Dry thoroughly.
•Repeat if necessary using a soft bristle brush.
Optional method for difficult stains:

ened with rubbing alcohol.
•Rinse thoroughly using a soft cloth dampened

CAUTION: When using any cleaning product, try
it first in an inconspicuous place to ensure that
there is no damage to the material. Follow the
directions and adhere to the safety precautions of
the manufacturer of each cleaning product used.
FreeMotion Fitness and its vendors cannot be
held liable for damage or injuries resulting from
the use or misuse of cleaning products.
3. Frames:
•Wipe using a soft cloth dampened with a light
solution of mild soap and warm water. Rinse
thoroughly using a soft cloth dampened with
clean water. Dry thoroughly.
Important: Do not use abrasive cleaners
because they may scratch the equipment. Strong
cleaners and abrasives will damage decals. Use
caution around decals. Do not use solvents such
as lacquer thinner, kerosene, gasoline, or similar
liquids.
WEEKLY
1. Hardware:
•Check all nuts and bolts. Tighten them as
required. Important: All FREEMOTION EPIC
cushions are fabricated using dense plywood
with tee-nuts installed for bolting to the machine
framework. Because these tee-nuts are held by
the plywood, they will not withstand the torque
that standard nuts and bolts will. Therefore,
when tightening the cushion bolts, turn them
only until they are snug and the cushion does
not move or feel loose. Overtightening may strip
the tee-nuts from the plywood and make it
impossible to remove the cushion in the future.
2. Grips:
•Check and replace as needed.
3. Wheels:
•Wheels should roll easily.Tighten or replace as
needed.
