IMPORTANT NOTICES
Read all warning labels, the instruction placard and this manual before
attempting to use this machine. Always consult your physician and an
exercise professional before beginning any exercise program/regimen.
Before any test or use check for proper assembly of the machine including
(but not limited to): bolts and other hardware fastened properly, cables in
pulley grooves and routed correctly. For safety use only the top weight for
the first machine movement.
Maintain your machine in good working order by following the maintenance
schedule provided on the equipment.
It is strongly recommended that a qualified dealer assemble this
Multi-Hip machine.
Should there be any question during assembly contact your authorized Inflight
Fitness dealer or call direct to 714 821 4177.
Before beginning assembly read this instruction manual thoroughly. Unpack and
verify all parts and hardware quantities against the parts and hardware lists.
Follow the assembly steps in sequence. Failure to follow the order of assembly
will result in disassembly later and possible damage to the machine components.
The 3/8” nuts provided with this machine are “centerlocking”. They provide a
more secure assembly than nylon locking nuts. Please note they do require
more force to tighten than nylon locking nuts.

buttonhead bolts, 4 – 3/8” flat washers, and 2 – 3/8’ nuts.
NOTE: The Height Adjust Arm should pivot parallel to the front of the Side
Supports. There should only be light pressure between the Nylon Guide and
the Chrome Selector Plate. If necessary, redo Step E with a washer between
the Chrome Selector Plate and the threaded posts of the R/H Side Support.
H. Slide the shaft of the Exercise Arm through the bushings of the Cam and the
Pulley Arm. Assemble to the Height Adjust Arm at the center bronze bushing.
Make sure the pieces are assembled per the drawing view and secure using
a split shaft collar and 1 – ¼” x ¾” screw.
I. Attach the large diameter end of the Gas Spring to the Height Adjust Arm
using a 3/8” x 1 ¼” bolt, 2 – 3/8” washers, and 1 - nut.
NOTE: The end of the Gas Spring must be allowed to pivot so do not over
tighten the bolt and nut.
J. Attach the small diameter rod end of the Gas Spring to the threaded post on
the L/H Side Support using 1 – 3/8” x 1 ½” bolt, 1 – 3/8” flat washer, and 1 –
3/8” nut. The nut is used as a jam nut against the threaded post to hold the

WEIGHT STACK, CABLE AND PULLEY INSTALLATION
K. Insert Guide Rods into the base of the Loop Upright. Allow Guide Rods to
lean back away from the machine. Place one weight stack cushion on each
Guide Rod and slide down to the base. Apply lubricant to the Guide Rods
from the weight stack cushions to the tops of the Guide Rods.
Making sure that the recess for the weight labels is facing towards the
machine and that the three pads are facing down slide onto the Guide Rods:
15 – 10lb. Weights. Place the Top Weight and Cable on the Guide Rods with
the drilled hole facing the machine and slide down to the stack.
Before proceeding with the cable installation slide the loop of the weight pin
lanyard over the end of the MHP Cable down to the top weight. Bolt the first
10lb. weight to the selector stem using 1 - 3/8” x 5 ¾” bolt and 1 – 3/8” nut.
L. Install Guide Rod Bracket onto top of guide rods. Place the MHP Cable over
one 4 ½” pulley and slide up between the plates of the Loop Upright at the
slot. Stand the weight stack assembly upright and bolt the Guide Rod Bracket,
Pulley and Loop Upright together using 1 – 3/8” x 2 ¼” bolt, 1 Cam Washer, 2
– 3/8” flat washers, and 1 – 3/8” nut. Do not tighten at this time.
M. Place a pulley under the cable and insert between the plates of the Loop
Upright. Fasten using 1 – 3/8” x 1 ¾” bolt, 2 – 3/8” flat washers, and 1 – 3/8”
nut.
N. Route the cable down to the base of the Loop Upright. Install a pulley over
the cable and attach between the two plates using 1 – 3/8” x 2” bolt, 2 – 3/8”
flat washers, and 1 – 3/8” nut.
O. Route the cable below a pulley and place into the Pulley Bracket welded to
the Base Frame. Attach using 1 – 3/8” x 2” bolt, 2 – 3/8” flat washers, and 1 –
3/8” nut.
P. Continue the cable up to the pulley plate on the Height Adjust Arm. Route the
cable over two pulleys and attach the two pulleys to the plate using 2 - 1 ¾”
bolts and 2 – 3/8” washers. Be sure that the cable is routed within the cable
retainer posts
Q. Attach a pulley to the Pulley Arm using 1 – 3/8’ x 2 ¼” bolt, 2 – 3/9” washers,
and 1 – 3/8” nut. Route the cable below this pulley and hook the ball end of
the cable into the retainer welded to the Cam..

EXERCISE ARM
R. Attach the Roller Assembly to the Exercise Arm using 1 - 3/8” x 3/4” bolt and
1 - 3/8” washer.
CABLE ADJUSTMENT
Note: Before proceeding make sure that all the bolts are tight except for the bolt
installed at Step L. at the Cam washer.
S. Once the Multi-Hip is completely assembled, loosen the bolt that attaches the
pulley and Guide Rod Bracket to the Loop Upright (installed at Step L.).
Raise or lower the bolt and pulley to remove slack from the cables. Cable
slack may also be added or removed by adjusting the threaded stop on the
Pulley Arm. Make sure that the Weight Pin still engages all weight plates with
the Selector Stem. Once the cable tension is correct, rotate the Cam Washer
so it rests against the triangle support and re-tighten bolt.
CAM SHROUD
T. Attach the Cam Shroud to the Height Adjust Arm using 2 – 3 ½” bolts, 4 –
3/8” flat washers, 2 – 3/8” nuts.
PLACARDS AND LABELS
U. Position the Height Adjust Arm parallel to the floor. Remove the backing from
the foam tape on the Instruction Placard. Align the Instruction Placard to the
Cam Shroud and attach.
V. Attach Weight Labels in recess provided on front of Weight Plates. All the
recesses should be aligned and to the right as you face the weight stack.
SHROUD HOLES AND SHROUD OPTION
W. If no Optional Shroud Kit was purchased install plastic caps in all 12 shroud
holes. If installing Shrouds, fasten to Loop Upright using 6 – 3/8 x 2 ½” bolts,
12 – 3/8” flat washers and 6 – 3/8” nuts (hardware found in Shroud box).
