52. Make sure that all parts are properly tightened. The use of all remaining parts will be explained in
USING THE LIFESTYLER SYSTEM 40, beginning on page 19 of this owner's manual.
WARNING: For your safety and benefit, attach all decals before using the cross training sys-
tem,
Before using the cross training system, make sure that both of the cables are properly routed. Pull
the ends of both cables a few times to make sure that the cables move smoothly over the pulleys.
Move the butterfly arms and the leg press plate a few times. If either of the cables does not move
smoothly, locate and correct the problem before using the cross training system. IMPORTANT: If
the cables are not properly routed, they may be permanently damaged when used with
heavy weights.

USING THE LIFESTYLER SYSTEM 40
The instructions below describe how each part of the cross training system can be adjusted. See the
EXERCISE GUIDE accompanying this owner's manual to see how the cross training system should be
set up for each individual exercise.
CHANGING THE WEIGHT SE'n'ING
The weight setting of the cross training system
can be changed from a minimum of 10 pounds to
a maximum of 100 pounds, in increments of 10
pounds. To select a weight setting, insert the
6" "L" Pin (96) under a Weight (79) and through
the Weight Selector (82). Turn the end of the Pin
downward.
Note: Due to the design of the cables and pul-
leys, the amount of weight will be DOUBLED
when the arms are used in the press arm
mode, and TRIPLED when the leg press plate
is used.
CHANGING THE STEPPING RESISTANCE
To vary the intensity of your workouts, the resis-
tance of the stepper pedals can be changed. To
change the resistance, lift the Pedals (63, 64) off
the brackets at the lower ends of the Resistance
Cylinders (60). Move the brackets to different
slots under the Pedals. Make sure that the brack-
ets are in the same slots under both Pedals. The
farther the Resistance Cylinders are from the
Rear Upright (74), the greater the resistance will
be.
ADJUSTING THE LEG PRESS PLATE
The Leg Press Plate (70) can be adjusted to any
of four positions. To change the position, first
remove the 7" "L" Pin (40). Move the Leg Press
Plate forward or backward and insert the "L" Pin
through the Leg Press Plate and the Leg Press
Frame (72).
For certain exercises, the Leg Press Plate (70)
should be removed from the Leg Press Frame
(72).

USINGTHEARMSINTHEBUTrERFLYMODE
To use the Arms (51) in the butterfly mode, the
Arm Support (85) must be locked in a stationary
position. To lock the Arm Support, insert a 4 1/2"
"L" Pin (43) down through the center of the Arm
Support and the bracket on the Front Upright (76).
Set the other 4 1/2" "L" Pin (43) aside.
USING THE ARMS IN THE PRESS MODE
To use the Arms (51) in the press mode, the
Arms must be locked in a stationary position.
Insert the two 4 1/2" "L" Pins (43) down through
the Arm Support and the Arms. IMPORTANT:
Always lock the arms in the stationary posi-
tion with the 4 112" "L" Pins except when per-
forming the butterfly or re-verse butterfly exer-
cise.
ATTACHING THE LAT BAR OR NYLON STRAP
TO THE H!GH C.A.BLE
The Lat Bar (87) can be attached to the high
cable with a Cable Clip (89). For some exercises,
the Chain (88) must be attached between the Lat
Bar and the high cable with two Cable Clips. The
distance between the Lat Bar and the high cable
can be adjusted by attaching the Cable Clips
closer together o_rfarther apart along the Chain.
The Nylon Strap (90) can be attached to the high
cable in the same manner.
ATTACHING THE LAT BAR OR NYLON STRAP
TO THE LOW CABLE
The Lat Bar (87-) can be attached to the low cable
with a Cable Clip (89). For some exercises, the
Chain (88) must be attached between the Lat Bar
and the low cable with two Cable Clips.-The dis-
tance between the Lat Bar and the low cable can
be adjusted by attaching the Cable Ciips closer
together or farther apart along the Chain.
