3. Next insert the Short Adjusting Tubes into
the Low adjusting bracket as shown in
Figure 6.
4. Ensure that the Snap locks are fully
engaged and that the Locking Handles are
also Tightened on the Horizontal
Adjusting Tubes. (Fig. 6)
Note: Do not insert assembled Cantilever Upright Assemblies into uprights at this point in
the assembly process. Follow each assembly step in sequence.
JFK Upright Assembly (355-05) to Base Leg Assembly (355-01)
The following procedures will require at
least two (2) qualified persons. Children or

Note: To determine anchor locations, please refer to the section for the specific equipment
to be anchored, Anchors & hardware are supplied with the Base Assemblies.
Tools Required (customer supplied):
•Tape measure
•Anchor setting tool or punch with a
5
/
16
” diameter & 1.5” long end
•
5
/
8
” diameter carbide tipped concrete drill bit
•Hammer drill
•¾” or 19mm Socket, Extension and Ratchet
•Hammer
•Shop Vacuum for fine dust
•Safety glasses, to be worn during Drilling, Anchor
installation and setting!
Note: Never place a floor anchor into a seam/crack,
or an area within 9” from a seam/crack or
outside edge of the concrete floor
1. With the 5/8” carbide drill bit installed in the Hammer
drill, drill a hole into the concrete to 2 inches (+
1
/
8
”).
2. Use a shop vacuum or turkey baster to remove all dust and concrete chips out of the holes. Ensure
the hole depth is at least 2 inches (+1/8”).
3. Turn a hex head bolt 3 full turns into a floor anchor, and insert it into the drilled hole (FIG 1).
4. Use the hammer to tap the top of the bolt until the floor
anchor is flush with or just below the top of the concrete
(FIG 1).
5. Remove the hex head bolt, proceed to set the anchor and
lock it in place!
The step of locking or setting the anchors is critical;
ensure that it is done correctly (FIG 2)!
6. Using a punch or setting tool (customer supplied), set the
floor anchor by striking the plunger in the center of the
floor anchor. Strike the setting tool or punch with a
hammer repeatedly, to expand the anchor in the hole
(FIG 2).
When securing equipment to floor anchors using bolts, a torque value of 20 ft lbs is
recommended.

Base and Cable Tie Down Floor Anchor Installation
Note: 8 anchors in total for this assembly, drill & install anchors as described on page 7.
1. Mark out the location of the 4-Cable Tie-down anchors using the dimensions shown below (Fig. 10).
Use the Diagonal Measurement (11’ 7”) to ensure the 4 anchors are square to each other. Install the
Floor anchors, as explained on page 7 Installing Anchors. Then install Threaded Socket Adaptors.
2. Next Center the cantilever assembly within this anchor pattern. Use the holes in the base legs as
guides for drilling the 4 upright base anchors, as explained on page 7 Installing Anchors. Install the
Anchors and fasten the Bases Down. Replace plastic caps in the base leg holes after installation.
3. Attach the tie down cables using the quick links to the top of each Cantilever Upright & tighten
Quick links using 2 adjustable wrenches, then secure the other end to the turnbuckle hook and chain
to the Threaded Socket Adaptors (floor anchors) and. See Figure 11 below for connection points.
4. Once all 4 cables are connected properly, the cables can be tightened using the turnbuckles. Tighten
each Turnbuckle equally so that the uprights remain perpendicular to the floor. See next section for
complete instructions on rail and turnbuckle adjustments.
Ensure the floor Anchors are properly set or the safe use of the equipment may be compromised

Rail Height and Width Adjustments Instructions
1. To adjust the height or width of either the Low or High Rail, first loosen the turnbuckles.
Low or High Rail Height Adjustment
2. Choosing the desired Low or High Rail Adjusting Bracket, loosen the Locking handle on the long
adjusting Tube and while supporting the rail pull the Snap Lock and move the rails to the desired
location. Let the Snap Lock, snap into a hole on the adjusting tube and tighten the Locking Handle to
secure it in place. (Fig. 12)
Rail Width Adjustment
3. Only the Low Rail Adjusting Bracket can be adjusted to change the width between the Rails, loosen
the Locking handle on the Horizontal Adjusting Tube and while supporting the rail pull the Snap
Lock and move the rail to the desired location. Let the Snap Lock, snap into a hole on the adjusting
tube and tighten the Locking Handle to secure it in place. (Fig. 12)
4. Always retighten the 4 turnbuckles equally so that the apparatus uprights remain perpendicular to
the floor. Also check the alignment of the 2 uprights in comparison to each other.
Note: DO NOT tighten Turnbuckles to the point that the cables are taught or springy! This
WILL NOT make the bars work better! It will only add pressure to the connecting
points. If the cables are over-tightened, twisting of the Cantilever Uprights may occur
which will make height adjustment of rails more difficult and may result in permanent
damage to the Uprights
Ensure all Clamps, Snap Locks and Locking Handles
are fully engaged prior to using the Equipment, this
also applies to the Base Uprights Spin-Snap Locks.
Never add any padding or tape
to the bar surfaces.
