What should I do before assembling my FT-1?

Read the entire manual carefully before starting assembly. Use the parts list to verify that everything is included. If any parts are missing, contact your retailer or Inspire Fitness support. 

What tools are necessary for assembly?

You’ll need basic tools like adjustable wrenches and Allen (hex) wrenches. Refer to the “Tools Required” section for specifics.

How long does assembly take, and do I need help?

Assembly typically takes 2–3 hours. Because of the weight and complexity, it's strongly recommended to have at least two people—yourself and a helper. 

Can I perform repairs myself?

No. To maintain warranty coverage, only authorized Inspire retailers or technicians should perform service. Using non-Inspire parts or unauthorized service can void your warranty. 

What safety precautions should I follow?

• Keep children and pets away from the machine.

• Only one person should use the machine at a time.

• Stop immediately and consult a physician if you feel dizzy, nauseous, or experience chest pain.

• Always use the machine on a flat, level surface—indoor use only.

• Wear proper exercise clothing and footwear.

• Stretch properly before use.

• Do not use the machine if it is malfunctioning. 

How do I maintain the machine over time?

Refer to the manual’s maintenance section for a recommended schedule and general upkeep tips to ensure longevity and smooth operation. 

What kind of warranty does the FT-1 include?

The FT‑1 comes with a limited lifetime warranty on its frame and parts—meaning it's built to last and supported long-term. 

How much space does the FT-1 require?

The compact design makes it corner-friendly, with a footprint of approximately 54" wide × 46" deep. It includes strong weight stacks (165 lb per tower) and many accessories.
