side and to the front or back are made as if you were standing on
a level surface and facing the Adjustable Hip Extension.
Basic Assembly Principals
Here are few basic assembly tips that can make assembly of your
Nautilus®Commercial Free Weights Adjustable Hip Extension
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 Adjustable Hip Extension , 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 Adjustable Hip Extension 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 Adjustable Hip
Extension .
Positioning Your Nautilus® Commercial Free Weights
Adjustable Hip Extension
Take great care when moving your Commercial Free Weights
Adjustable Hip Extension into place prior to assembly.
The Adjustable Hip Extension 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.
