General Safety and Maintenance Manual: Monthly Inspection 24
Inspect All Fasteners
Precor products are assembled with Grade 5 fasteners or better. With
normal use, these fasteners can loosen. Inspect all nuts, bolts, hex key
bolts, screws, and other fasteners to ensure they are tight and
installed correctly.
Be sure to check fasteners at bolted joints to ensure connection is
secure. If the fastener is loose, but in good condition, retighten it. If
you are concerned about the integrity of the fastener, remove it, clean
the threads, and inspect it for any damage such as cracks, bad
threads, corrosion, or rust. Reinstall the fastener if it appears to be in
good condition. Otherwise, remove the equipment from service until a
new fastener can be installed properly. You can order new fasteners
from Customer Support. Refer to Obtaining Service.
