Good gym equipment can last over a decade — but only if maintained properly. Many gym owners in Kenya lose money because they neglect routine maintenance. Here’s how to keep your machines in top condition.
1. Daily Cleaning
Wipe down equipment after every use with a mild disinfectant. Sweat corrodes metal and affects sensors.
2. Weekly Inspection
Check moving parts like pulleys, cables, and belts. Tighten loose bolts and lubricate joints to prevent friction damage.
3. Monthly Service
Clean out dust from motorized machines (treadmills, bikes) and test emergency stop features.
4. Electrical Safety
Ensure machines are plugged into surge protectors to prevent power damage, especially in areas with unstable electricity.
5. Professional Servicing
