This is normal, since the rollers need to conform to the monorail. You’ll need to do about 25 - 100
repetitions on your Vasa Trainer before the rollers wear and conform to the monorail and roll smoothly.
As the rollers wear, they’ll leave some residue on the monorail which needs to be wiped off regularly
with a ScotchBrite pad, or a non-abrasive or cloth rag. Any dust or residue accumulation on the
monorail will inhibit optimal functioning of the rollers. See maintenance section of this manual for
instructions on how to clean your monorail.
