Frequently Asked Questions

Are these maintenance guides really free?
Yes. All 27 guides are free to read online or download as a PDF — no email signup or purchase required. We publish them because most repair calls we get are for problems that routine maintenance would have prevented.
Can I do this maintenance myself, or do I need a technician?
Most of what's in these guides is safe for an equipment owner to do — cleaning, lubrication, basic hardware checks, and visual inspection. Each guide is written to flag the clear point where DIY maintenance ends and a technician should take over, such as electrical work, belt/deck replacement, or anything involving the motor or control board.
Will following these guides void my equipment's warranty?
Routine care like cleaning, lubrication, and hardware tightening generally does not affect a manufacturer's warranty. Opening electronic components, attempting motor or control board repairs, or using non-approved parts can void a warranty — those are exactly the points where our guides tell you to call a technician instead.
What if my equipment problem isn't covered in a guide?
These guides cover routine maintenance and the most common issues we see in the field, not every possible failure. If your equipment is doing something a guide doesn't address, or a guide tells you to call, we service all major residential, commercial, and biomedical fitness equipment brands across Tampa Bay.
