Before Assembly
Please take the time to read all assembly instructions
before attempting to assemble your Bowflex Xtreme®
2 SE home gym. Select where you are going to locate
your machine carefully. The best place for your
Bowflex Xtreme®2 SE home gym is on a hard, level
surface.
Select a workout area that provides a minimum
clearance behind the rod box of 0.5 ft (15 cm) and a
total width of 6.5 ft (2.0 m). Allow a minimum of 3.0 ft
(0.9 m) free space in front of the machine.
Every effort has been made to provide you with a clear
and accurate assembly manual. Should you find any
inconsistencies, have questions about your Bowflex
Xtreme®2 SE or have suggestions for improving our
manuals, please call 800-628-8458 for assistance.
Basic Assembly Principles
Here are a few basic tips that will make your assembly of
the Bowflex Xtreme® 2 SE home gym quick and easy. By
using these principles, you can simplify each process and
save yourself extra time and effort.
1. To make the assembly process go faster, gather the
pieces you need for each step and thoroughly read the
assembly instructions for that step prior to starting
assembly for the step.
2. When tightening a locknut on a bolt, use a combination
wrench to grip the locknut and ensure that it is
fastened securely.
3. When attaching two pieces, gently lift and look
through the bolt holes to help guide the bolt through
the holes.
4. As a general rule, and for all bolts and nuts on your
Bowflex Xtreme®2 SE home gym, turn bolts or nuts
toward the right (clockwise) to tighten and left
(counterclockwise) to loosen.
IMPORTANT: LEAVE ALL CABLES COILED AND WRAPPED UNTIL YOUR
BOWFLEX XTREME®2 SE HOME GYM IS FULLY ASSEMBLED.
