Please check the apparatus before first use and after each of the first few uses to check all the fittings are
securely fastened. Thereafter, it is important to follow a regular maintenance schedule by someone
familiar with the equipment and record your maintenance checks. Equally inspection should be made
immediately if any part appears not be operating correctly or something appears to be loose. Below
follows a basic maintenance guide though our detailed maintenance guide and a sample maintenance
log can be downloaded from
guides/
• Springs - Inspect for signs of wear, look for deformation, kinks, gaps and corrosion. Springs showing
signs of damage must not be used and must be replaced immediately. Springs must be replaced
every 2 years or after 3,000 hours, whichever is first, or immediately if showing signs of fatigue or
deformation
• Foot Bar - check all allen bolts securing the padded bar to the aluminium arms and to the steel
engagement bar and through the frame are tight
• Runners - ensure the runners are regularly cleaned and kept free from dirt as this is the main cause for
a noisy reformer. If excess dirt is spotted on the runners then the wheels may also need cleaning. We
recommend cleaning the runners with a window cleaner such as windowlene.
• Ropes and Handles - check ropes for signs of wear, fraying or nicks and replace if damaged. Check
stitching on handles is intact and handles are not overly worn.
• PVC Upholstery - always ensure belts, jewellery and shoes are removed when working on the
equipment as buckles, rings, watches and bangles can all end up damaging the upholstery. For
cleaning upholstery we recommend cleaning with Gym Wipes from www.vital-clean.de, which are
available worldwide. For further information on cleaning recommendations see the link above.
• Wheels - Remove the carriage and check for smooth rotation, if the wheels are not turning smoothly or
are scarred or damaged this will impede smooth and quiet running of the equipment and the wheels
need to be replaced.
• Shoulder Rests - check the pads are securely bolted on to the metal frame - if loose retighten.
• Spring hooks - hand check that all eye hooks will not move. If loose remove, apply loctite and
retighten. Check that the spring retention bungee is correctly attached.
• Nuts & Allen Bolts - check all nuts and bolts are tight, including those on the Silent rope pulley wheels
and those securing the head rest.
2. Troubleshooting Smooth Running of your A8-Pro Reformer
If you reformer is not running smoothly and quietly please follow these step in order to get it back up and
running smoothly:
A. Check the reformer is level using a spirit level
B. Check the runners and wheels are clean and free from dirt and grit
C. Check the side wheels are correctly adjusted
D. Check the wheels and bearings are not damaged. If damaged replace.
3. Removing the Carriage For Maintenance
From time to time you may need to remove the carriage either to deep clean the wheels & runners or to
change the springs or wheels. Removing the carriage is easily done and no tools are required. To do this
follow these steps
a) Remove shoulder rests, unlocking them first if they were locked
b) Remove the T bar that holds the ropes & place on the floor
c) Fold down the rope risers and rotate the pulleys so they are flat and pointing towards the runner
d) Remove the two carriage stoppers at the open end of the runner - these can be unscrewed by hand
e) Now gently slide the carriage out
Remember when putting the carriage back in to be careful not to damage the wheels when inserting
them in to the runner - this job is best done by two people.
