Frequently Asked Questions

While some minor issues may be fixed by referring to your owner's manual or troubleshooting tips, more complex issues, such as pulley problems or damaged cables, should be handled by a professional technician.
If you're unable to resolve the issue, it’s best to call local repair service for expert assistance.
First, check that all cables are securely fitted into the pulleys and that there’s no excessive slack. Lubricate the stack guide rods with a manufacturer-recommended spray or silicone gel lubricant.
If the cables are damaged, such as cracked or broken, they should be replaced.
If the issue persists, a technician should inspect the machine to ensure proper functioning.
Local service providers can often provide same-day and next-day service. Check with your local repair service to schedule quick repairs.
