This manual will provide you and your staff with valuable information
regarding the operation and maintenance of your Atlantis equipment so that
your members enjoy years of safe and exhilarating strength training pleasure.
USING THIS MANUAL
All Atlantis units can be identified by a code that features 1 or 2 letters, and 3
numbers. For example, the code P140 identifies the selectorized Seated Chest
Press. All weight stack units (selectorized units) and plate-loaded units feature
instructional placards that have their product codes printed on them as well.
All other units may be identified by the product code found in your catalog, by
the serial number (silver sticker near the bottom of the frame with 5 numbers)
or by describing the unit’s function and features to a representative.

ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS
9/16” (14 mm)
wrench or
crescent wrench
The tools listed above are required to install weight stacks, remove pads and disassemble any
Atlantis bolt combination. Bolts need to be removed with impact driver or ratchet fitted with 9/16”
(14 mm) socket and 9/16” (14 mm) wrench or crescent wrench. Be sure to re-install all bolts and
washer’s combinations in the same order they were removed. Atlantis strongly recommends at least
two people perform the following procedures for safety and comfort.
WARNING: Please note that shipping units (even over very short distances) can
loosen the tightest of bolts. It is therefore extremely important that all bolts be
carefully tightened before any equipment is used and on a regular basis thereafter.
The required tools for assembly are:

These units are typically shipped fully assembled and ready to use. In some instances, units will be
“compressed” to save space for shipping and are assembled with shortened beams. It is important to
note that although the shortened beams are discarded after shipping, the hardware (bolts) must be
reused. If a pad has been removed for installation purposes, be careful not to over tighten the T-nut
bolts when reinstalling the pad on the unit. In order to do so, tighten the bolts by hand before using a
ratchet or impact driver.
Weight stack units are typically shipped fully assembled apart from
their weight stacks which are packed in boxes. It is important to follow
the diagram labeled on each machine to make sure that the proper
plates are installed.
Please note that the following units do not feature the 5 lb (2.3 kg) add-
on weights described within the installation instructions:
• C113 Total Hip
• M118 Standing Calf
• M318 Incline Calf Raise
• NM205 Dynamic Functional Training System

1) First remove the top panel (A)
from the top of the machine.
Next, manually slide out the unit’s
protective shroud (B) from its tracks
on the sides of the frame and put it
aside.
2) Lower the add-on weights so that
they are resting on the top plate. This
will expose the two silver cylindrical
bolts and black plastic bracket (C)
holding the chromed guide rods (D)
in place. Loosen and remove both
cylindrical bolts and the black plastic
bracket.
On most stations, you will find special
“split” washers (also called lock
washers) and “flat” washers between
the cylindrical bolt and the bracket
that are very important. They keep the
bolts from vibrating loose over time.
Securely install the “flat” washer
under the plastic bracket (C) and the
“split” washer between the cylindrical
bolt and the “flat” washer. On other
stations, you will find regular nut and
bolt assemblies that do not require
these washers. Carefully let the guide
rods lean to whichever side of the unit
is easiest to work on. The rods will
lean about 60 degrees and sit safely
in place on an angle.

SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Your Atlantis equipment has been carefully designed to be used safely under normal operating
conditions. However, the practice of educating individuals who encounter your equipment and
properly inspecting and maintaining units on a regular basis (see (3) Preventive Maintenance in this
manual) will greatly enhance the safety level of your facility. Anyone who comes into contact with the
equipment must be familiar with its operation and the potential hazards associated with improper
use or maintenance.
Atlantis recommends that all equipment be secured to the floor, to a solid, level surface to
avoid tipping over or rocking. This must be performed by a licensed contractor.
2Safety instructions
• Read all warnings and obtain
instructions before using Atlantis
equipment. Use each unit for its
intended exercise(s) only. Do not
modify a unit in any way.
• Ensure that all users obtain a medical
exam and receive proper instructions
before using Atlantis equipment.
• Users and bystanders must keep all
body parts and clothing away from
moving parts during use.
• Follow the suggested inspection
schedule found in this manual. Do not
allow anyone to use a unit if it appears
to be damaged. Do not attempt to fix a
broken or jammed machine if you are
not qualified to do so.
• Use only the weight selector pin
provided by the manufacturer. Do not
improvise. If in doubt, consult an Atlantis
representative prior to any intervention.
• Do not use dumbbells, weight plates or
any other means to add resistance to
weight stack (selectorized) units.
• Do not exceed personal strength levels
or overload equipment.
• Keep children away from equipment and
supervise teenagers.
• Do not remove any labels from Atlantis
equipment. Replace damaged labels
immediately.

PREVENTIVE MAINTENANCE
AND INSPECTION
Every step in the design and production phase of manufacturing is taken to ensure that your Atlantis
equipment will operate safely and efficiently under normal conditions and in commercial settings
for prolonged periods of time. However, as with any machinery with moving parts, your equipment is
subject to wear and must be maintained and inspected on a regular basis. Failure to do so will cause
unnecessary damage or premature wear on a unit’s components, and in turn pose serious safety
hazards to users.
Every weight stack and linear bearing needs to be treated specifically by following the
recommendations provided in this manual. If in doubt, consult an Atlantis representative prior to any
intervention.
Atlantis will not be held responsible for any personal injury or damages resulting from improper
maintenance, misuse or negligence.
3Preventive maintenance and inspection
• Clean upholstery with any upholstery safe sanitizing spray using a
soft damp cloth (clean, sweat-free upholstery lasts up to 40% longer).
For especially persistent stains, apply rubbing alcohol liberally with a
soft cloth and wipe dry with another cloth after rinsing area with clean
water.
• Recommended upholstery cleaning products:
Primary: Formula 409 All-Purpose Cleaner
Secondary:
— Lysol Clean and Fresh Multi-Surface Cleaner (Reckitt Benckiser)
— Lestoil Heavy Duty Cleaner (Clorox)
— Mr. Clean / Flash Clean and Shine (Procter and Gamble)
— Eco Touch All Purpose Premium Care
Maintenance and inspection schedule: Daily maintenance
Do not use abrasive powder, steel wool, or industrial strength
or solvent cleaners. The use of upholstery “conditioners” or
“protectants” is not recommended and should be avoided on
all vinyl coated fabrics. Also note that repeated use of any
disinfectants and cleaning agents will degrade coated fabrics
upholstery to some extent. For high traffic/wear applications that
require repeated cleaning and disinfecting, it is recommended to
use coated fabric products with PreFixx®Protective Finish.

• Carefully inspect pull pins, snap locks, weight stack
selector pins and all pivoting connecting parts. Replace
at first sign of wear.
• Inspect cables thoroughly over their entire length and
at each insertion point and replace immediately if
damaged. When changing a cable, note the replacement
date for your records (see (4) Replacing Parts section in
this manual).
• Inspect cables thoroughly over their entire length and
at each insertion point and replace immediately if
damaged. When changing a cable, note the replacement
date for your records (see (4) Replacing Parts section in
this manual).
• Inspect belts thoroughly over their entire length
and at each insertion point. If a belt shows signs of
delaminating, cracking or wear that has reduced its
original width or thickness, it should be replaced
immediately. All insertion point hardware should also be
carefully inspected for signs of wear. When changing a
belt, note the replacement date for your records (see (4)
Replacing Parts section in this manual).

• Clean weight stack guide rods with dry towel and lubricate
with TFL- 50 wet lube. Do not use silicone or any other
type of lubricant. Wipe guide rods clean and apply
lubricant from the top down, allowing slight excess to
run down guide rods and into the weight stack. If using
a spray can or bottle, be sure to shield the rest of the
unit from over spray as product can stain. Occasionally,
have an assistant lift the weight stack at different weight
values (exercise extreme caution when performing this
maneuver), and apply lubricant to the portions of the
guide rods that are usually hidden by the weight stack if
they seem dry. Weight stack guide rods should be clean
and have a light layer of lubricant on them for optimal
performance. Failing to wipe guide rods clean first will
lead to unwanted resistance and premature wear on
bushings.
• Clean linear bearing guide rods on Smith machines (E155)
with a dry towel and lubricate with multipurpose grease.
Do not use silicone or any other type of lubricant. Atlantis
recommends the spray can format of Super Lube®, an
excellent multipurpose Teflon-based lubricant.
• Lightly grease stainless steel seat shafts and backrests,
accessory bars, and pivoting handles with multipurpose
grease or Super Lube®. Never lubricate the piston shaft of
a hydraulic or gas spring shock.
• Inspect all labels. Replace any damaged or missing labels.
• Tighten all nuts and bolts.

• Check cables for correct tension on crossovers, adjustable pulleys and functional training
systems (NM200/NM205). If the cable is loose, use the cable adjustment screw attached to the
housing of the pulley assembly (see figures below). The cable will tighten as the screw goes down.
• Clean frames and inside of weight stack shrouds with a solution of Simple Green®All-Purpose
Cleaner (an environmentally-friendly, non-toxic, and biodegradable cleaner). Dirt and dust are
your machine’s worst enemy! Keeping units clean is an important part of their performance and
durability.

REPLACING PARTS
Cables come in two different sizes: 1/8” (3 mm) and 3/16” (4.8 mm). The 1/8” (3 mm) cable is more
flexible and is used for units with a total weight stack of up to 200 lb (91 kg). The 3/16” (4.8 mm)
cable is less malleable and recommended for units with a weight stack over 200 lb (91 kg).
If unsure of the cable size to use, please contact a customer service representative.
NOTE: The A201 and A301 are the only machines that use a Kevlar belt instead of a cable.

REPLACING PARTS
4Pull Pins Pads
If the spring inside the pull pin mechanism
is not working properly or other parts are
missing, the entire pin needs to be changed.
It is important to note that the thread size of
the pull-pin’s insert changed sometime in
early 2004. As a result, replacement pull-pins
are shipped with two thread-sized nuts to
accommodate all equipment models. Once
the correct size has been identified, it is
extremely important that the pull pin head
(red) be glued using a thread locker (LOCTITE
Red Threadlocker).
Please contact our service department with
the following information relating to the
unit such as model number, serial number,
pictures and location of pad(s) on the unit so
that we may be able to assist you.
NOTE: Atlantis will evaluate if the foam
is still in good condition, and thus only the
upholstery needs to be changed.
If you need to replace a part that has not been listed in this manual, contact the service department
with the product code and serial number with a description of the part you need. You may be
required to provide additional information in order to help establish exactly which version of a part is
required such as pictures of the unit and of the part(s) in question.

TROUBLE SHOOTING
The hydraulic cylinders used to adjust seats on many of our selectorized units are tested for 3 50,000
cycles and are extremely durable. Their resistance level is pre-set at the factory and cannot be
adjusted in the field. The seat adjustment may respond slowly during the initial use. See
(3) Preventive Maintenance in this manual for lubrication instructions regarding the stainless steel
seat shafts (NOT the cylinder shaft). If poor performance persists over a prolonged period, inspect
the shock for signs of leakage and contact a customer service representative.
5Hydraulic seat adjustment
Gas spring shock (various applications)
Gas spring shocks are used on pre-stretch pedals and in various other applications (either hidden or
exposed) to assist users when adjusting heavy parts.
If the pre-stretch pedal does not return to starting position automatically, the shock has lost its
resistance. If faced with this situation, begin by lubricating the shaft (and NOT the shock). If the
shock is leaking or does not retract automatically, it may need to be replaced. Communicate the
unit’s model number and serial number as well as the exact position of the shock in question to your
customer service representative. Gas spring shocks are sensitive to the position in which they are
installed. A replacement shock must be re-installed exactly as the original shock was installed (not
upside down), or the new shock will quickly dry out and fail.
Light friction on new units is normal. However, it is important to keep units well lubricated during
the first month of operation for optimal performance and to decrease friction caused by new
components.
Inspect all pivoting connecting parts and replace them immediately if worn.
