# The words the floor uses. A short list, so a fault, a job and a part are not the same sentence. Brands have their own pages, because a part is ordered for a model. ## The register ### Asset The machine, the bar, or the rig you keep a file for. Faults, jobs and parts hang off the asset. A new corner is not a new asset. ### Brand The manufacturer named on the frame. It is recorded so a part can be matched to that maker’s model. The logo alone is not a part number. See the brand list. ### Model The line and the version: Integrity, IC7, RowErg, not only the brand. Two treadmills from one brand often do not share a belt. The model comes from the plate, not from the aisle. ### Serial number The maker’s identity for this frame. If the plate is gone, say so and use your own code. Do not invent a serial. Warranty and parts both ask for the real one. ### Work order The job: what was done, which part, how long, and whether it is finished. It is not the same object as the fault report. ### Issue The problem as reported. A member can open it from the machine. It becomes a work order only when someone takes the job. ## The machine ### Selectorized A strength machine with a weight stack and a pin. The pin, the guide rods and the cable are the usual parts. If the pin will not pass through the plate, the machine is out of service. ### Plate-loaded A strength machine you load with plates. There is no stack pin. Bushings, pivots and pads are the wear. The brand still matters, because the movement is not universal. ### Console The screen and the board that drives it. Photograph the error before a reset. A dead console takes the machine out only when resistance or the stop depends on it. ### Emergency stop The control that kills motion. If it is blocked, missing, or clicks without stopping the belt, the machine is out of service. A tether clip is part of the same check on treadmills that have one. ### Rig The upright structure for functional training. One file for the rig. J-cups, pins, bands and straps are parts on that file. A layout left by the last class is not the default. ### Barbell A bar with sleeves. In daily use it is an asset: spin, bend, knurl. ‘The Eleiko’ is not a file if you own six bars. ### Indoor bike A studio or gym bike. The parts are pedals, the drive belt or chain, the saddle post and the console. Not a running belt. ## Parts ### OEM part A part from the original manufacturer, or made to their number. Record the number you fitted. An equivalent part is allowed if you write that it was not the original. ### Wear item A part you expect to replace: belts, cables, bushings, pads, chains, pedals. It still gets a line on the job. ‘Consumable’ is not an excuse for an empty history. ### Lead time How long the part takes to arrive. It belongs on the job when you order, so the machine’s status is honest while you wait. ### Warranty The dates and the papers on the asset. A claim needs the serial and what was done. Fitting your own part can end the cover. Say so before the shroud comes off. ### Running belt The belt on a treadmill. Length and width come from the old belt or the manual for that model. It is not the drive belt of an exercise bike. ### Deck The board under a treadmill belt. A new belt on a worn deck returns as the same fault. Write whether the deck was dressed, flipped, or replaced. ### Cable The steel line on a strength machine or functional trainer. Note which run you replaced. A fray at the handle is not proof the whole cable is new. ### Guide rod The rod the weight stack travels on. Dry, damaged, or replaced are different notes. A stack that sticks under load is a safety fault. ### Bushing The wear piece in a pivot. Play in a joint that should be tight is a bushing or a bearing until you look. Write which pivot. ### Upholstery Pads and covers. A tear can wait if it is only ugly. A sharp edge or a user who slides off cannot. Photograph the pad so the right bench is recovered. ## The floor ### Out of service Members may not use it. The sign on the frame and the status in the register use the same words. Waiting on a part does not clear the status. ### QR page The public page on the machine. It shows the name and the status, and takes a report. It does not show cost, staff names, or which part you are waiting on. ### Downtime Time the machine was not available to members during opening hours. Labour after close is not downtime. The start and the end are written on the job. ### Lifecycle Purchase, warranty, the repairs, and the day you retire or replace the machine. The next machine points at the old file. The old file is not deleted. --- Source: https://gymmaintain.com/glossary Language: en
