ponents and do not wear loose or dangling clothing while exercising. Keep headset
cords close to the body and away from moving components.

MAINTENANCE
1. Frames: Wipe all machines down with a damp cloth and dry completely each day.
This includes painted, chrome parts and upholstered pads.
2. Painted/chrome parts: Use Simple Green or similar cleaner for light dirt and grime.
Use TurtleWax®Polishing Compound or a good car polish to remove heavier dirt and
grease as well as for polishing. DO NOT use solvents, lacquer thinner, acetone or finger
nail polish remover. For scuffs and marks that are not removed by the above methods
use a soft scrub cleanser.
3. Exercise instruction labels: Clean with soap and water as needed.
4. Linear bearing shafts: Wipe down linear rails using a light application of Mag-
nalube®lubricant or a similar teflon grease on a weekly basis to remove dust, hair, and
dirt.
5. Bronze bushings: Check monthly for signs of wear and replace as needed. Lubri-
cate monthly with Tri-FlowTM.
We recommend that you purchase the Paramount Performance Kit (P/N KIT-01) to main-
tain your Paramount products. This will insure that the proper maintenance materials
required will be used. Please refer to the General Maintenance Manual (p/n AM-GMM)
