Cybex recommends that all training equipment be used in a supervised area. It is recommended that the
equipment be located in an access controlled area. Control is the responsibility of the owner. The extent of
control is at the discretion of the owner.
It is the responsibility of the purchaser/user of Cybex products to read and understand the owner’s manual, and
warning labels; as well as instruct all individuals, whether end users or supervising personnel, on proper usage
of the equipment.
Proper Usage:
Use machine only as described in the manual. Failing to follow proper instructions may result in injury.
Do Not Lean Against or Pull On the framework, weight stack, or any component, whether machine is at rest or
in use. Inappropriate or improper use may result in injury to users or third parties (bystanders).
Do not use machine if it is not located on a solid level surface or is improperly installed.
Provide an adequate safety perimeter between the machine, walls and other equipment to ensure that the facility
has the proper clearance for usage and training.
Securing Equipment:
The machine has holes in the feet, which allow for ease in anchoring to the floor. Cybex strongly recommends
that, to eliminate rocking, tipping or falling over due to incorrect usage and misuse, equipment be secured to a
solid, level surface.
1. The solid, level surface should not deviate more than 1/8” over a 10’ distance or as defined and required by
local building and architectural codes.
2. Anchoring of equipment must be completed by a qualified licensed contractor.
3. Anchoring holes are provided on the feet of the frame. All anchoring locations must be used when anchoring
the equipment to the floor.
4. Due to the wide variation of flooring on which machines may be anchored or installed, verify anchoring
method and anchoring fasteners with a qualified and licensed contractor.
5. A minimum pull out force of 220 lbs/100 kgs is required for each anchor position.
6. Do not use machine until it is properly anchored.
