Chain Problems

 

Symptom

The chain is skipping or running roughly.
 

Resolution 1

If caused by stiff links in the chain you should clean and lubricate the chain.

See: ChainLubrication

If the chain continues to skip, the machine should not be rowed and you should contact Concept2 immediately.


Resolution 2

If caused by a worn out sprocket, you should replace the sprocket.

See:  Sprocket Replacement (Model D and E Indoor Rowers)

See: Sprocket Replacement (Model C Indoor Rower)
 




 

Note: When replacing a chain or a sprocket, Concept2 highly recommends replacing both the chain and the sprocket at the same time due to how these parts wear together over time.
