Congratulations on the purchase of your new Batca S-10. 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 perform-
ance, 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 correct assembly. If you are unable to correct a problem or have questions
with your assembly please contact your authorized Batca dealer.

Final Assembly and Troubleshooting
• Wrench Tighten the two set
screws on all Pillow Block Bearings
with an Allen Wrench.
Pillow Block Bearing
BFH-50172
Free Floater Top Plate
200lb Stack (Standard) 175lb Stack (Optional)
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..
Pulley Cover
BFM-50345
• 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 right. 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.

www.batcafitness.com 17 S-10 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 tightened to the counterpart to en-
sure 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 tension is too tight. You will
need to take some of the tension out to lower the Top plate flush with the second plate.

Batca Fitness Systems 18 S-10 Owner's Manual
Batca Fitness Systems strives to give you the very best in quality, performance and safety through carefully 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.
