To reduce the risk of serious injury, read all important precautions and
instructions in this manual and all warnings on your weight bench before
using your weight bench. Ritfit assumes no responsibility for personal injury
or property damage sustained by or through the use of this product.
1. It is the responsibility of the owner to
ensure that all users of the weight bench
are ade-quately informed of all precautions.
2. Before beginning any exercise program,
consult your physician. This is especially
important for persons over age 35 or
persons with pre-existing health problems.
3. The weight bench is not intended for use by
persons with reduced physical, sensory, or
mental capabilities or lack of experience
and knowledge, unless they are given
supervision or instruction about use of the
weight bench by someone responsible for
their safety.
4. Use the weight bench only as described in
this manual.
5. The weight bench is intended for home use
only. Do not use the weight bench in any
commercial, rental, or institutional setting.
6. Keep the weight bench indoors, away from
moisture and dust. Do not put the weight
bench in a garage or covered patio, or near
water.
7. Place the weight bench on a level surface,
with enough clearance around the weight
bench to mount, dismount, and use the
weight bench. To protect the floor or carpet
from damage, place a mat under the weight
bench.
8. Inspect and properly tighten all parts each
time the weight bench is used. Replace any
worn parts immediately.
9. Keep children under age 13 and pets away
from the weight bench at all times.
10. Keep hands and feet away from moving
parts.
11. Always wear athletic shoes for foot protec-
tion while using the weight bench.
12. Always place the same amount of weight
on both ends of your barbell. While adding
or removing weights, always keep some
weight on both ends of your barbell to
prevent the barbell from tipping. Always
secure weights with your spring collars.
13. Before you use the weight rests, make sure
that the weight rests are properly attached
to the uprights. In addition, make sure that
the spotters are properly attached to the
uprights.
14. Always make sure that the locking pin is
fully inserted into the seat frame and into
the pivot bracket before you use the weight
bench.
15. Always exercise with a partner. Your partner
should be ready to catch your barbell if you
cannot complete a repetition.
16. Over exercising may result in serious injury
or death. If you feel faint, if you become
short of breath, or if you experience pain
while exercising, stop immediately and cool
down.
