Our Opinion
Greetings, fellow fitness enthusiasts! Today, we’re here to talk about a common issue that can arise with your beloved BowFlex® Max Trainer – a broken crank arm. But fear not, because we, the staff of the parent game, are here to provide you with all the support and guidance you need to get back to crushing those workouts in no time.
Now, replacing the crank arm on your Max Trainer may seem like a daunting task, but rest assured, it’s actually quite simple with the right guidance. And that’s where we come in. We’ve put together this handy guide to walk you through the process step by step so you can get back to sweating it out on your machine in no time.
First things first, you’ll want to make sure you have the necessary tools on hand before you get started. You’ll need a wrench, a socket set, and of course, your new crank arm. Once you’ve got everything you need, it’s time to get down to business.
Start by removing the plastic covers on either side of the crank arm to expose the bolt that holds it in place. Use your wrench to loosen and remove the bolt, then carefully slide the old crank arm off. Make sure to take note of how the old crank arm was positioned so you can properly install the new one in its place.
Next, slide the new crank arm into position and tighten the bolt to secure it in place. Give it a few test spins to make sure it’s rotating smoothly, and voila! You’ve successfully replaced the crank arm on your BowFlex® Max Trainer.
See, that wasn’t so bad, was it? With a little bit of know-how and some elbow grease, you can easily tackle this common issue and get back to enjoying your workouts on your trusty Max Trainer. And remember, if you ever find yourself in need of any additional support or guidance, the friendly staff at the parent game are always here to help. Happy sweating!
