• NEVER use the machine with the weight stack pinned in an elevated position.

• NEVER use dumbbells or other means to incrementally increase the weight resistance. Only use the means provided directly from the manufacturer.

• When adjusting any mechanism (stop position, seat position, pad location, etc.), make certain it is fully engaged prior to use to prevent unintended motion.

• Adjustable stops, where provided, must be used at all times.

• If the equipment is NOT secured to the floor, NEVER allow resistance straps, ropes or other means to be attached, as this may result in serious injury. NEVER use this equipment for support during stretching.

Follow these requirements for proper installation:

1. STABLE AND LEVEL SURFACE: The MATRIX AURA G3-MS24FS must be installed on a stable base and properly leveled.

2. SECURING THE EQUIPMENT: The manufacturer REQUIRES that this stationary equipment be secured to the floor to stabilize it and eliminate rocking or tipping over. This must be performed by a licensed contractor. All anchor points must be able to withstand 750 lbs. (3.3 kN) pull-out force.

3. HANDLING: Under no circumstances should you slide equipment across the floor due to the risk of tipping. Use proper materials handling techniques and equipment recommended by OSHA.

The equipment should be assembled by a trained assembly team or be pre-assembled prior to delivery.

Ensure a minimum clearance width of 0.6 meters (24″) for access to and passage around MATRIX strength equipment. Please note, 0.91 meters (36″) is the ADA recommended clearance width for individuals in wheelchairs.

1. Do not exceed the weight limits of the exercise device.

2. If applicable, set safety stops to the appropriate height.

3. If applicable, adjust seat pads, leg pads, foot pads, range of motion adjustment, or any other type of adjustment mechanisms to a comfortable start position. Make certain that the adjusting mechanism is fully engaged to prevent unintentional movement and to avoid injury.

4. Sit on the bench (if applicable) and get into the appropriate position for exercise.

5. Exercise using no more weight than you can safely lift and control.

6. In a controlled manner, perform the exercise.

7. Return the weight to its fully-supported start position.

Preventative maintenance is key to smooth operating equipment and keeping liability to a minimum. Equipment needs to be inspected at regular intervals.

1. DO NOT use any equipment that is damaged and or has worn or broken parts. Use only replacement parts supplied by your country’s local MATRIX dealer.

2. MAINTAIN LABELS AND NAMEPLATES: Do not remove labels for any reason. They contain important information. If unreadable or missing, contact your MATRIX dealer for a replacement.

3. MAINTAIN ALL EQUIPMENT: Preventative maintenance is key to smooth operating equipment as well as keeping your liability to a minimum. Equipment needs to be inspected at regular intervals.

4. Ensure that any person(s) making adjustments or performing maintenance or repair of any kind is qualified to do so.

Notes:

¹ Upholstery & Grips should be cleaned with a mild soap and water or a non-ammonia based cleaner.
