LAYOUT AND SPACING -MACHINE DIMENSIONS &WEIGHTS

7
It is recommended to leave a space of 24 inches (61 cm.) around the machine at its
maximum exercise dimensions. The spacing may be less if the machine is positioned next to
a wall, or upright-to-upright with another machine so as to prevent a user from passing
through thearea. If the spacing is to be less thanthe recommended 24 inches (61 cm.), then
it should be less than 12 inches (31 cm.) so as to prevent users from passing through the
area.
DO NOT install any fitness equipment near a pool, hot tub or other damp locations. Corrosion
caused by installation in these locations can lead to premature failure of components.

8. If you DID NOT order the Adder Weight Option, proceed to Step #10.
9. INSTALLATION OF THE OPTIONAL ADDER WEIGHT SYSTEM:
•Slidetheadder weight onto the guide rods as shown in the “OPTIONAL ADDER
WEIGHT” diagram on the previous page. Make sure that the long end of the bushing
faces down and that the pull pin faces the user. Insert the cable through the hole in
the adder weight.
• Assemble the adder weight bracket and guide rod bracket as shown.
10. Tilt the guide rods back to vertical and re-attach the guide rod bracket to the upright.
IF
IFIF
IF the optional adderweight wasinstalled, secure it in place on theadder weight bracket.
Make sure that the pull pin on the adder weight lines up with and freely passes through
the retaining hole in the adder weight bracket. You may need to reposition the adder
weight bracket slightly to ensure this.
11. Check the cable to ensure that it is
tracking in all of the pulleys and that the
cap plate/selector bar is sitting flush on the
top weight. Before re-attaching the cable to
the cap plate/selector bar assembly, insert
the selector pin lanyard ring between the
cable bolt head and the cable nut as shown.
12. Re-attach thecable tothe cap
plate/selector bar and adjust the cable
tension so that the cap/plate barely lifts off
of the first weight plate. Cycle the machine
with a light weight to ensure that the
movement is smooth. Verify that the
selector pin can be inserted into the bottom
weight of the weight stack. If the selector
pin does not insert freely, loosen the cable
tension slightly.
13. Be sure that the dimension from under the
bolt head to the bottom of the cable nut
DOES NOT exceed 1-3/8” (35 MM.) as
shown. With the cable tension properly
adjusted, tighten the cable nut.

Locate the weight stack labels packed with your machine order. For your reference, a list of
weight stack labels and their corresponding part numbers is shown below:
* Kilogram (KG.) labels are available upon request.
Note that the 130 lb. and 190 lb. weight stacks (which have 12 weight plates each) use
the same labels as the 170 lb. and 250 lb. weight stacks (which have 16 weight plates
each). When installing labels on the 130 lb. and 190 lb. weight stacks, discard the last 4
numbers from the label.
To install the weight stack labels:
1. Verifythat the correctweight stack is
properly installed on the machine.
2. With a clean, dry cloth, wipe the front
surface of the weights with rubbing
alcohol and allow the weights to dry
completely. Make sure that there is no
lint on the surface.
3. Removethe backing fromthe label.
Align the top edge of the label with the
top edge of the weights and the side
of the label with the outside edge of
the selector pin holes.
4. Verifythatthelabelstrip is straight and
remove the liner. As the liner comes
off the label, press and rub each label
into place.
5. IMPORTANT!
IMPORTANT!IMPORTANT!
IMPORTANT! DO NOT attempt to“test”
the integrity of the labels after they
have been installed. The adhesive on
the labels requires 72 hours to cure.

Paramount recommends that the cable ends be inspected daily
and that the area that passes over the pulleys be inspected weekly.
Remove the view port plugs and inspect the cable while someone
cycles the machine. Replace the cable at thefirst sign of wearor on
an annual basis. Refer to the General Maintenance Manual.
Shownto the right is the routing for the cable through the upright. If
a machine must be disassembled, disconnect the cable at the
machine side, leaving the section of cable that is routed through
the upright, intact.
Remove the view port plugs to assist in routing the cable as well as
verifying that the cable is in the pulley groove. After installation,
make sure that the machine functions smoothly and that all
pulleys rotate.

The XL-300 Leg Press is provided with an adjustable roller feature that ensures smooth
operation. This adjustment is preset at the factory. However, if you need to disassemble the
machine and remove the seat assembly, the rollers must be re-adjusted.
Tools Required:
(2) - 5/16” allen wrenches
1-1/4” wrench (or large adjustable crescent wrench)
The adjustment is made using the roller clearance adjusters which are located on both the
left andright sidesof the trolley. To make the adjustment, start by loosening the button head
cap screws in the center of the adjusters. Then use a wrench to rotate the adjuster so that
there is only a small gap of about 1/32” (1 mm) between one of the rollers and the rail.
Look down the length of the rail from the rear of the machine at the position of the upper
and lower rollers relative to the rail. Adjust both the left and right roller. Once the correct
position is set, hold the wrench in place and use the allen wrenches to tighten the button
head screws.
