Equipment Maintenance — Cover Your
Assets!
Thursday, January 22, 2015 by Sandy Gardner
Not only does properly-functioning equipment keep your clients happy, but it also protects your
facility from liability! When’s the last time you gave your spring-loaded equipment a little TLC?
To ensure that your large equipment is performing optimally, here are routine checks you should
be doing regularly:
Daily
• Ensure carriage stoppers are fully inserted into the Reformer rails
• Clean Reformer rails with a soft, damp cloth
• Inspect retractable ropes to confirm that they are securely set in the rope retaining hooks and
self-locking cleats
Weekly
• Ensure that all nuts, bolts & screws are securely fastened
• Ensure the Reformer footbar and chrome adjuster bar are securely fastened
• Inspect all springs for wear and damage
Monthly
• Check spring bolts, spring balls and spring clips to ensure they’re securely fastened
