Today we're going to the underbelly of the beast! The systems that keep the handle and the return of the handle functioning. Reasons you might need to service this area: you may find that you have broken links in your chain, frozen links, or if the handle isn't returning "crisply" and/or if there isn't tension in the system.
Concept2 parts are cheap and the machines are built to industrial strength. So seriously, don't neglect them!
Start by lifting up on the latch and splitting the machine in two parts. Then stand the machine upright and pull out the plastic sheet, give it a wipe down if it's dirty, which will then expose the chain and bungee system.
If your chain is having an issue, you're going to need to flip the machine over and get in there with some tools, with Concept2 will walk you through. They'll give you a maintenance guide that will show you everything.
If your issues is the handle not retracting, there's an easy solution: and it starts with the bungee. If you get under there and you can see the elastic on the bungee, it needs to be replaced. If your problem is the handle not returning as it should be, get into the bungee attachments. They attach in two places - the left and the right. On the left it's a hook that faces away, on the right it's a hook that faces towards. If you need more tension, loosen the hook and feed the slack through. Creating a higher tension point on the bungee so it has a greater return tension. Make sure you equally tension both sides.
To put it back together, put the plastic sheet back in and put the pieces back together. Easy as pie!
