The weight bench is designed to be used with your own dumbbell set for a variety of exercises. In addition, the
weight bench can be used with the optional NordicTrack¨GRT270 (see page 4) to let you develop every major
muscle group of the body. The instructions below show how the backrest and the seat can be adjusted and how
the curl pad is used.
Make sure to inspect and tighten all parts each time you use the weight bench. Replace any worn parts immedi-
ately. The bench can be cleaned with a damp cloth and a mild, non-abrasive detergent. Do not use solvents.
Adjusting the Weight Bench
ADJUSTING THE BACKREST
To raise the Backrest (9), grip the end of the Backrest
with one hand and pull it upward. The Backrest
Adjustment Frame (19) will automatically lock into one of
the tabs on the bracket on the Bench Frame (3).
To lower the Backrest (9), grip the end of the Backrest
with one hand and pull it upwards slightly. Grip the handle
(not shown) on the right side of the Backrest Adjustment
Frame (19) with your other hand and pull the Backrest
Adjustment Frame free of the tabs on the bracket on the
Bench Frame (3). Lower the Backrest to the desired posi-
tion and lock the Backrest Adjustment Frame into the

ADJUSTING THE SEAT
To raise the Seat (8), lift the narrow end of the Seat until
the appropriate tab on the Seat Adjustment Bracket (22)
engages the welded pin (not shown) on the right side of
the Bench Frame (3).
To lower the Seat (8), use the handle on the Seat

Adjustment Bracket from the pin. Lower the Seat to the
desired position and engage the appropriate tab on the
Seat Adjustment Bracket on the pin.
USING THE CURL PAD
Sit on the weight bench and rest the upper part of one
arm on the Curl Pad (7) as shown. Hold a dumbbell (not
included) with an underhand grip and extend your arm.
Slowly curl the dumbbell toward your chest and then
return to the starting position. This exercise develops the
biceps and brachioradial muscles. Repeat as many times
as desired.
Next, repeat the exercise with your other arm.
