7Preventive Maintenance
About
Preventative maintenance is proven to extend the life of the equipment, improve the user
experience, and keep maintenance problems and service calls to a minimum.
Precor recommends owners implement a thorough maintenance program that incorporates
regular safety inspections by qualified maintenance technicians as outlined in this document.
This Guide provides information about items that need to be inspected and maintained on a
daily, weekly, and monthly basis.
During maintenance, place an “Out Of Service” sign on the bike.
IMPORTANT: It is the responsibility of the owner to maintain equipment in accord-
ance with the Precor recommended preventative maintenance schedule. Always pur-
chase replacement parts and hardware from Precor. If you use parts not approved by
Precor, you could void the Precor Limited Warranty. Use of parts not approved by Pre-
cor may cause injury.

Precor offers a subscription Preventative Maintenance Program, see Preventative Main-
tenance Program.
General Care
General cleaning and maintenance tasks that will help keep your bike in excellent operating
condition.
General Maintenance tasks
l After the first ten hours of use and every 100 hours of use thereafter, re-torque the ped-
als to 33 ft-lb (45 N•m)[[[Undefined variable SBK800SpinChrono.Spin-PedalTorque]]]
l Never use abrasive cleaning liquids or petroleum-based solvents on the bike. Use a soft
nylon scrub brush to clean grooves and textured surfaces on pedals.
l For commercial bikes:
o
Release all tension from the resistance knob after each use to allow for per-
spiration to evaporate. If bikes are used in a class setting, the instructor should dir-
ect class participants to release all tension from the resistance knob after each
use.
l For bikes used in a home setting:
o
Wipe down the bike after each use. Pay special attention to wipe under the res-
istance knob. When done, turn the resistance knob clockwise (+) to put tension
on the flywheel so that the pedals do not rotate freely.
