1. Read all instructions in this manual and all
warnings on the resistance system before
using the resistance system. Use the resist-
ance system only as described in this manual.
2. It is the responsibility of the owner to ensure
that all users of the resistance system are
adequately informed of all precautions.
3. The resistance system is intended for home
use only. Do not use the resistance system in
any commercial, rental, or institutional setting.
4. Keep the resistance system indoors, away
from moisture and dust. Place the resistance
system on a level surface, with a mat
beneath it to protect the floor or carpet. Make
sure that there is enough clearance around
the resistance system to mount, dismount,
and use the resistance system.
5. Inspect and properly tighten all parts regular-
ly. Replace any worn parts immediately.
6. Keep children under 12 and pets away from
the resistance system at all times.
7. Keep hands and feet away from moving
parts.

tion while exercising.
9. The resistance system is designed to sup-
port a maximum user weight of 300 pounds.
10. Make sure that the cables remain on the pul-
leys at all times. If the cables bind as you are
exercising, stop immediately and make sure
that the cables are on the pulleys. Replace all
cables at least every two years.

used with the included resistance, and the
resistance included with a PROFORM
RECOIL Max Pack. Do not use the resistance
system with dumbbells or any other type of

resistance bars must rest under the two “U”-
channels. Add and remove resistance bars
from the “U”-channels one resistance bar at
atime.
13. Keep clear of the area around the “U”-chan-
nels while the resistance system is in use.
Do not add or remove resistance bars from
the “U”-channels while the end of the long
cable is pulled out.
14. Pull on the cables only while sitting on the
bench or standing on the base plate.
15. If you feel pain or dizziness at any time while
exercising, stop immediately and begin cool-
ing down.
