CABLE DIAGRAMS
The cable diagrams below show the proper routing of the Bench Cable (58), the Low Cable (59), the Carriage
Cable (60), and the High Cable (61). Use the diagram to make sure that the cables and the cable traps have
been assembled correctly. If the cables have not been correctly routed, the weight bench will not function prop-
erly and damage may occur. The numbers show the correct route for each cable. Make sure t at t e cable
traps do not touc or bind t e cables.

This section explains how to adjust the weight bench. The first time you perform an exercise that uses the safety
spotter, adjust the bench to the position that is best for you. Note the position of the weight rest and safety spot-
ter on the B NCH ADJUSTM NT CHART, on page 20 of this manual. When preparing to perform the exercise
again, refer back to the chart for a quick reference to your personal settings.
See the X RCIS GUID LIN S on page 21 for important information about how to get the most benefit from
your exercise program. Also, refer to the accompanying exercise guide to see the correct form for each exercise.
Make sure all parts are properly tightened each time you use the weight bench. Replace any worn parts immediate-
ly. The weight bench can be cleaned with a damp cloth and a mild, non-abrasive detergent. Do not use solvents.

ADJUSTING THE BACKREST
The Backrest (38) can be used in a decline position,
a level position, or any of five incline positions. To
adjust the Backrest, turn the Knob (30) counterclock-
wise until loose. Pull the Knob out as far as it will go
and slide the Sliding Seat Frame (15) to the desired
position. ngage the Knob into an adjustment hole in
the Bench Frame (14). Turn the Knob clockwise until
tight.

ADJUSTING THE WEIGHT RESTS AND SAFETY
SPOTTER
Before performing an exercise that uses a barbell,
adjust the Weight Rests (11, 12) and Safety Spotter
(25) to the height that is best suited for that exercise.
The Weight Rests should be at a comfortable height
for lifting and replacing the barbell. Moving the Safety
Spotter (10) will change the distance that the barbell
can move. First, attach the barbell to the high cable
(see ATTACHING A BARB LL TO TH CABL S, on
page 18). Then, set the Safety Spotter to the position
that will stop the barbell at the lowest point that you
want it to go during the exercise.
To adjust a Weight Rest (11, 12) turn the Knob (30)
counterclockwise until loose. Pull the Knob out as far
as it will go and move the Weight Rest to the desired
height. ngage the Knob into an adjustment hole in
the Upright (1, 2) and turn it clockwise until tight.
The Safety Spotter (10) can be adjusted in the same
manner.

t at t e Low Cable (59) goes t roug t e Back
Leg. Next, attach the Bench Cable (58) to the Low
Cable with a Cable Clip (28).
When the bench is not attached to the rack, use the
Cable Clip (28) to attach the Bench Cable (58) to the
bracket on the Back Leg (39).

ATTACHING THE ACCESSORIES TO THE CABLES
To use the Row Bar (38), attach it to the High Cable
(61) or Low Cable (not shown) with a Cable Clip (28).
The other accessories (not shown) can be attached
to the cables in the same manner.
Note: T e accessories can be stored on t e back
of t e Rig t and Left Frames (5, 6 [not s own])
wit Cable Clips (28).
USING THE POWER ASSIST LEGS
If you are unable to complete the repetition after per-
forming a bench exercise, the Power Assist Legs (20,
21) can be used to help lift the barbell back to the
Weight Rests (not shown).
To use the Power Assist Legs (20, 21), attach the
bench to the rack and a barbell to the high cable (see
ATTACHING TH B NCH TO TH RACK and
ATTACHING A BARB LL TO TH CABL S on page
18). Press down on the Power Assist Legs with your
feet while lifting the barbell to the Weight Rests (not
shown).

TIGHTENING THE CABLES
Woven cable, the type of cable used on the weight
bench, can stretch slightly after it is first used. If there
is slack in the cables, tighten them as described below.
See drawing A. Tighten the M6 Locknut (80) onto the
Low Cable (59) a couple of turns.
See drawing A. Remove the M10 x 45mm Bolt (76)
and the M10 Nylon Locknut (not shown) attaching the
4 1/2” Pulley (35) and Cable Trap (55) to the “U”-
Bracket (33). Use the Bolt and Nylon Locknut to reat-
tach the Pulley and Cable Trap to the lower set of
holes in the “U”-Bracket.
See drawing B. Remove the M10 x 45mm Bolt (76)
and the M10 Nylon Locknut (77) attaching the lower
4 1/2” Pulley (35) and Cable Trap (55) to the Pulley
Plates (31). Use the Bolt and Nylon Locknut to reattach
the Pulley and Cable Trap to the next set of holes in
the Pulley Plates. Repeat until the cables are tight.

BENCH ADJUSTMENT CHART
The chart below contains a list of exercises that require the use of the safety spotter. When preparing the weight
bench for one of these exercises, follow the steps listed below. For information about each of these steps, refer
to the ADJUSTM NTS section of this manual. Make sure t e benc cable is attac ed to t e low cable w en
