ASSEMBLY
Make Things Easier for Yourself
Everything in this manual is designed to ensure
that the weight system can be assembled suc-
cessfully by anyone. Most people find that by
setting aside plenty of time, assembly will go
smoothly.
Before beginning assembly, carefully read the
following information and instructions:
• Assembly requires two people.
• Place all parts in a cleared area and remove the
packing materials. Do not dispose of the packing
materials until assembly is completed.
• Tighten all parts as you assemble them, unless
instructed to do otherwise.
• As you assemble the weight system, make sure
all parts are oriented as shown in the drawings.
An Allen wrench Wand the following tools (not
included) are required for assembly:
Two adjustable wrenches
One standard screwdriver
One Phillips screwdriver
Lubricant, three grease packs are included.
Assembly will be more convenient if you have a
socket set, a set of open-end or closed-end
wrenches, or a set of ratchet wrenches.
Before beginning assembly, make sure you
understand the information in the bOX
above. Important: Some of the parts
described in the assembly steps may be
pre-assembled,

that the lO-Pound Weight (14) marked "1 5" is
on top, and the 20-Pound Weight (13) marked
"15 100" is on the bottom.

ADJUSTMENTS
This section explains how to adjust the weight system. Refer to the accompanying exercise guide to see the cor-
rect form for each exercise.
Make sure that all parts are properly tightened each time the weight system is used. Replace any worn parts
immediately. The weight system can be cleaned with a damp cloth and a mild, non-abrasive detergent. Do not
use solvents.
CHANGING THE WEIGHT SETTING
To change the weight setting of the weight stack,
insert the Weight Pin (12) under the desired Weight
(13, 14). Make sure to insert the Weight Pin until the
bent end of the Weight Pin is touching the Weights,
and turn the bent end upward.
ADJUSTING THE ARMS
The Arms (19, 20) can be adjusted to any of eleven
positions for different exercises. To position an Arm,
first pull the Knob (32) out as far as it will go. Move
the Arm to the desired position, and then engage the
Knob into a hole in the Adjustment Bracket (23, 24).

TIGHTENING THE CABLE
Woven cable, the type of cable used on the weight
system, can stretch slightly when it is first used. If
there is slack in the Cable (33) when the arms are in
the straight up position before resistance is felt, the
Cable should be tightened. Note: There will be slack
in the Cable when the arms are in any other position.
Slack can be removed from the Cable (33) by moving
either or both of the indicated 4 1/2" Pulleys (34) in
the brackets on the Top Weight (15). First, loosen a
3/8" x 2 1/2" Bolt (77) and a 3/8" Nylon Locknut (63),
and move the Pulley down. Then, retighten the Bolt
and Nylon Locknut.
Note: If the Cable (33) tends to slip off the pulleys,
the Cable may have become twisted. Remove the
Cable and re-install it. If the Cable needs to be
replaced, see ORDERING REPLACEMENT PARTS
on the back cover of this manual.

CABLE DIAGRAM
The cable diagram shows the proper routing of the
Cable (33). Use the diagram to make sure that the
Cable and the cable traps have been assembled cor-
rectly. If the Cable has not been correctly routed, the
weight system will not function properly and damage
may occur. The numbers show the correct route for
the Cable. Make sure that the cable traps do not
touch or bind the Cable,
