Congratulations on the purchase of your new Batca LD-6. This gym will provide you with a lifetime of
enjoyment to meet your strength training needs. Batca Fitness Systems strives to build the best quality gyms
and to package these gyms in such a way to avoid any damage during shipping.
In order to get started with your assembly you should first familiarize yourself with this manual. It is
recommended that you read through each step thoroughly before you begin. Begin by opening your boxes and
separating all of your parts. Verify that all parts are accounted for and have no damage. When all parts are
accounted for, you may begin your assembly. Some items may have been pre-assembled for your convenience.
Please note that hardware quantities shown reflect total quantities for your gym and may not reflect actual
quantities in each bag. Assemble your gym on a solid level surface. This will ensure the best possible perfor-
mance, function, and safety for the gym and your workout.
Assemble your gym according to the step by step instructions found in this manual. Failure to do so
will void your warranty and may result in personal injury. After assembly, you should check each station to
ensure correct operation. If a problem arises, recheck your assembly with these instructions to verify cor-
rect assembly. If you are unable to correct a problem or have questions with your assembly please contact
your authorized Batca dealer.

 Position the cable guard tab on the
Pulley Cover so that the tab prevents
the cable from coming out of it’s track
on the 4 1/2” Pulley. An example of this
positioning can be seen in the figure
above. The cable guard tab should be
positioned so that it is in the middle of
the cable wrap on the 4 1/2” Pulley,
between points “A” and “B”. This will
allow better protection and prevent
the cable from rubbing the cable guard
tab.

Final Assembly and Troubleshooting
Top Plate
Weight Stack Decals:
IMPORTANT - Check These Components Before Using Gym:
 Each Cable with a threaded bolt on
either end must be threaded at least
1/2” into its attachment, whether it
be a Free Floater, Lockout Free
Floater, or the Top Plate of the
weight stack. Each must also be
secured with a 1/2” Jam Nut to
ensure a safe and proper connection.
 Record your serial number on the front of this manual
and keep for your records. The serial number can be
found on the side of the cage as seen in the figure to the
left.

Free Floater
 Position the cable guard tab on the
Pulley Cover so that the tab prevents
the cable from coming out of it’s track
on the 4 1/2” Pulley. An example of this
positioning can be seen in the figure to
the left. The cable guard tab should be
positioned so that it is in the middle of
the cable wrap on the 4 1/2” Pulley,
between points “A” and “B”. This will
allow better protection and prevent
the cable from rubbing the cable guard
tab.
Guide Rod
 Clean guide rods with a lint-free cloth and apply a thin layer of silicone lubricant (Part # BFH-
50262) to each guide rod. This will ensure a glass smooth performance from your weight stack.

www.batcafitness.com 19 LD-6 Owner’s Manual
 Adjust cables to proper tension from any of the locations shown below.
Note: All cables with threaded adjustable ends must have at least 1/2” of the threads
threaded in to its counterpart. It is very important that the 1/2” Jam Nut be wrench tight-
ened to the counterpart to ensure that the threaded adjustable end of the cable does not
back out of its counterpart.
 Note: If the top plate raises off of the second plate in the weight stack, then the cable ten-
sion is too tight. You will need to take some of the tension out to lower the Top plate flush
with the second plate.

engineered designs and excellent workmanship. In order to maintain this high level of quality the preventative
maintenance schedule below should be followed.
Clean upholstery, grips, and roller pads with mild soap and water generally after every use. The guide rods,
chrome slides and frame should be cleaned with a cotton cloth. Upon cleaning the guide rods, a thin layer of
Silicone or Teflon gel should be applied to each rod to ensure a glass smooth performance.
An overall inspection should be done before each workout. If the warning and safety decals are worn or have
been removed they should be replaced immediately. The cables and cable systems should be inspected for
signs of wear and proper tension. In order to check cables properly you should carefully run the cable
through your fingertips, checking for signs of wear, cracks, burs and thinning spots. Replace any part at
first signs of wear. Cables should be adjusted for proper tension. See assembly instructions for this detail.
All hardware, stops, and adjustments should be checked and tightened as required.
The guide rods on your machine should be cleaned and lubricated regularly. This will ensure a glass smooth
performance from your weight stack. A thin layer of either Silicone or Teflon gel should applied to each rod.
Each pillow block bearing and flange bearing has a grease fittings that must be lubricated regularly. Use
general purpose bearing grease and follow the schedule below.
Although cables should be inspected daily, it is important that ALL cables be replaced as directed in the
schedule below. Please note that at any first sign of wear the cable should be replaced immediately.
