Preparations
CAUTION: To set up this unit, you will need
assistance. Do not attempt assembly by yourself.
You must review and follow the instructions in this
guide. If you do not assemble and use the S3.23
according to the following guidelines, you could void
the Precor Limited Warranty.
Required Tools
Tools that you need to obtain before assembling the
unit include:
❏ Standard set of hex keys
❏ Two ⁹⁄₁₆-inch wrenches
❏ One ¹⁄₂-inch wrench
❏ Wire tie cutter (cuts plastic tie wraps)
❏ Step stool
Note: Use box-end, open-end or standard crescent
wrenches.
Installation Requirements
Follow these installation requirements when
assembling the unit:
• Fill out and mail the warranty registration card.
• Set up the S3.23 on a solid, flat surface.
A smooth, flat surface under the unit helps keep
it level.
• Provide ample space around the machine.
Open space around the machine allows for easier
access.
• Insert all fasteners in the same direction. For
aesthetic purposes, insert all the fasteners in the
same direction unless specified (in text or
illustrations) to do otherwise.
• Leave room for adjustments. Tighten fasteners
(such as screws, nuts, and bolts), so the unit is
stable, but leaves room for adjustments. Do not
fully tighten fasteners until instructed (in the steps)
to do so.
Assembly Tips
• A black 6-inch scale with white numbers is
provided at the bottom of every assembly
instruction page. Use this scale to identify the
correct fastener size. The head of a fastener is not
used in measuring the length.
To find out the length of a particular fastener,
measure its shank (the long, narrow part beneath
the head). Refer to the following diagram:
• Silver fasteners are used within the silver painted
areas. Black fasteners are used when assembling
the gray painted surfaces.
• Some pieces have extra holes that you will not use.
Use only those holes indicated in the instructions
and illustrations.
• Read all caution notes on each page before
completing that step.
• While you may be able to assemble the S3.23 by
reading the illustrations only, refer to the text for
important safety cautions and notes.
