Plain-English summary
Octane Fitness is recalling about 570 XT-One elliptical cross trainers due to a fall hazard. The recall involves model number XT5700, where the model name "XTOne" is printed on the incline support column. The machines measure 33 inches by 99 inches and feature steel tubing with plastic shrouds. They were sold in various shades of gray, green, and orange, equipped with either a 10-inch glass capacitive touch screen or a large LED display with integrated capacitive buttons.
The hazard exists because the incline lead screw can shear off, causing the foot pedals to drop unexpectedly. This mechanical failure creates a risk of the user falling. The company has received seven reports of the foot pedal dropping unexpectedly, including one report of a scrape to the knee or leg area.
These cross trainers were sold nationwide from August 2015 through November 2017 for between about $8,000 and $10,500. They were distributed through specialty fitness stores, distributors, and direct sales to commercial clubs and gyms. The machines were manufactured in Taiwan. Gym and fitness center operators should immediately stop using these recalled cross trainers and contact Octane Fitness LLC for repair instructions. The firm is contacting all known purchasers directly. Consumers can also contact Octane Fitness toll-free at 888-975-1376 from 7:30 a.m. to 6 p.m. CT, email [email protected], or visit www.octanefitness.com and click on Safety Notices for more information.
