BEFORE YOU ASSEMBLE
Note: Throughout this manual, all references to the left or right
side and to the front or back are made as if you were standing on
a level surface and facing the 0-90 Adjustable Utility Bench.
Basic Assembly Principals
Here are few basic assembly tips that can make assembly of your
Nautilus®Commercial Free Weights 0-90 Adjustable Utility Bench
quick and easy.
1. You can make the assembly process go faster by gathering the
pieces you need for each step prior to starting the step.
2. As a general rule, and for all fasteners on your Nautilus®
Commercial Free Weights 0-90 Adjustable Utility Bench ,
turning toward the right will tighten, turning towards the left will
loosen. An easy way to remember this is by remembering the
expression, “Lefty loosey, righty tighty.”
3. Not all of the tools needed to assemble your Nautilus®
Commercial Free Weights 0-90 Adjustable Utility Bench are
provided. Refer to the Tool List. You may find the use of a utility
knife or scissors beneficial during the unpacking and assembly
process.
4. It is recommended that you use two people to assemble your
Nautilus® Commercial Free Weights 0-90 Adjustable Utility
Bench .
Positioning Your Nautilus® Commercial Free Weights 0-90
Adjustable Utility Bench.
Take great care when moving your Commercial Free Weights 0-
90 Adjustable Utility Bench into place prior to assembly.
The 0-90 Adjustable Utility Bench is heavy and requires two
people to safely move from one location to another. To move,
use only the handle to roll the unit. Never pick up the unit by any
moving parts.
