1.2. USEFUL ADVICE
Technogym advises you to program your technical assistance task in the following way:
•Make a careful assessment of the impressions given by the Customer regarding the equipment's operating
faults and formulate some appropriate questions to clarifythe symptoms relating to the defect.
•Be clear in your diagnosis of the reasons for the fault. You can pick up the basic theoretical
information from this manual, but this needs to be bolstered by your own personal experience
and by taking part in the training courses organised periodically by Technogym.
•Plan the repair work in a rational manner so as to avoid wasting any time, e.g. collecting spare
parts, preparing tools and equipment etc.

•Gain access to the part that needs to be repaired and limit yourself to the essential operations.
On this point, it will be extremely helpful if you consult the dismantling sequences shown in this
manual.
