.
Bolt grade markings are used to categorize bolts according to the bolt material, manufacturing process, and mechanical properties.The grade of the bolt is stamped on the head of the bolt.
US SAE bolts: The bolt grade markings are determined by the number of the lines stamped on the head of the bolt. The number of lines is always two less than the grade of the bolt. Count the lines, add two, and you can determine the grade of the bolt.
Metric bolts: On metric bolts, the bolt grade is identified by a bolt grade number stamped on the head of the bolt.
|
|
CAUTION: Always replace bolts with the same grade bolt. If you don’t know the grade of the replacement bolt – DO NOT USE THE BOLT. |
Bolt Grade Markings Chart
Example bolt grades used on Precor equipment (may not represent all bolt grades). Always match the replacement bolt grade marking to the removed bott grade marking.
Parts
|
IMPORTANT: Always purchase OEM 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 Precor may cause injury. |

Lubricants
Only use products from the following list of approved lubricants:
| Lubricant | Description |
|---|---|
| Grease |
Use only NLGI class 2 PTFE synthetic grade grease. Use of unapproved lubricants may void the product warranty. Recommended brands (or equivalent): • Mobil 1® synthetic grease • Super Lube® with Teflon |
|
CAUTION: Do not use petroleum based lubricants on mechanical components such as the lift, as this may result in degradation of nylon gearing mechanisms. Use only synthetic lubricants such as "Super Lube with Teflon" or "Mobile One Synthetic" grease (RED). |
Only use the following approved cleaning products to safely clean and prevent damage to the machine surfaces.
Approved Cleaning Products:
- General Equipment Surfaces:
- 1 part mild soap to 30 parts water (recommend Simple Green® cleaner or equivalent).
- Athletic equipment cleaner, 9x7 pre-saturated wipes (ATHLETIX PRODUCTS).
- Enivir O Safe oxygen enhanced cleaner or Enviro Safe glass and multitask cleaner concentrate.
- Consoles and PVSPersonal Viewing System display.: a diluted solution of one part 91% Isopropyl alcohol to one part water.
Cleaning Procedure
- Wipe down equipment using a soft lint-free cloth using only the recommended cleaning solution. Always spray cleaning solution directly onto the cleaning cloth and not directly onto the equipment surface to avoid equipment damage due to excessive moisture.
|
|
CAUTION: Do not use acidic cleaners and do not spray directly onto the equipment surfaces. |
- Rinse surfaces using a clean lint-free cloth dampened with water only.
- Then completely dry with another clean lint-free cloth.
Power Requirements
The EFX is a self-powered unit that does not require external power to operate. Pedaling will turn an internal generator which generates the power required to supply the internal electronics, lift motor, P10/P30 consoles, and battery charging functions.
Cable TV "CATV" RF input signal power requirements
For touchscreen (P62, P80, and P82) consoles or PVS displays, there is a minimum RF input power requirement to properly supply CATVCable Television (aka Community Access Television) is a system of transmitting television programming to consumers via radio frequency (RF) signals transmitted through coaxial cables signal to the consoles.
- Analog video power: +5 dB1) DB or DBR: treadmill dynmaic break resistor 2) Decibel (dB): In electronic systems, the decibel (dB) is a logarithmic unit of measurement used to express the system power gain (+dB) or loss (-dB) in decibels (dB). dB (power) = 10Log Pout/Pin) or, in terms of voltage, dB (power) = 20Log (Vout/Vin). to +10 dB RF power with a +40 dB minimum channel to noise ratio (at each console).
- Digital RF power: -5 dB to 0 dB (at each console).
For MYE displays.
- Analog video power (at each display): - 30 dB to +20 dB RF power with a (+40 dB C/Ncarrier-to-noise ratio: The ratio of power in an RF carrier to the noise power in the channel. CNR is defined as the ratio of the received modulated carrier signal power C to the received noise power N after the receiver filters: in terms of power: CNR = C/N, in terms of decibles CNR(dB) = 10Log(C/N) = C(dBm) – N(dBm). (Channel to Noise ratio).
- Digital RF power (at each display): -5 dB to 0 dB.
Using an RF wall outlet
If a wall RF outlet is used to power several consoles in series for a row of equipment there is a minimum RF power requirement at the outlet of +35 dB at +40 dB minimum channel to noise ratio for analog video and a +25 dB for Digital video. RF signal strength of +35 dB can power 17 to 19 consoles in a single row when properly tapped out.
Ethernet (LAN) input signal requirements
Precor recommends a dedicated CAT6 Ethernet feed to each equipment location.
Communication Requirements:
- 512Kb/s up
- 5-10Mb/s down
- Switch Ports: 80, 123, 443
Touchscreen (P62, P80, and P82) console Preva PBSPreva Business Suite communication protocol
The touchscreen consoles use a security token for communication to the Precor servers. The security token is a hash string that is sent with every API call from the FE’s to the Amazon Cloud. The security token originates after the equipment is registered at the location. The console issues a ‘Call’ which returns the registration token and the fitness equipment URL. Every event after that uses the URL and the token to validate/authenticate communication with the Amazon servers and Preva Business Suite (PBS).
All communication with Precor servers is currently done via outgoing (originating from the console) HTTPS sessions. The console utilizes NTPNetwork Time Protocol (NTP) is a networking protocol for clock synchronization between computer systems over packet-switched, variable-latency data networks. to set its clock and for synchronization. At no time is Precor connecting to the customers facility network to "push" any data. The console initiates all data requests.
