Use
of
the
remaining
parts
will
be
explained
in
USING
THE
SYSTEM
300,
beginning
on
page
18
of
this
owner’s
manual.
Before
using
the
SYSTEM
300,
pull
the
end
of
each
cable
a
few
times
to
make
sure
that
the
cables
move
smoothly.
If
the
cables
bind,
correct
the
problem
before
using
the
SYSTEM
300.
See
the
CABLE
DIAGRAMS
on
pages
22
and
23
of
this
owner’s
manual
to
make
sure
that
the
cables
are
properly
routed.
IMPORTANT:
If
the
cables
have
been
incorrectly
routed,
they
will
be
damaged
when
heavy
weight
is
used.
17
USING
THE
SYSTEM
300
The
instructions
below
describe
how
each
part
of
the
SYSTEM
300
can
be
adjusted.
Refer
to
the
EXERCISE
GUIDE
accompanying
this
owner's
manual
for
exercise
guidelines,
and
to
see
how
the
SYSTEM
300
should
be
set
up
for
each
exercise.
IMPORTANT:
When
attaching
the
lat
bar
or
nylon
strap,
make
sure
that
the
attachments
are
in
the
cor¬
rect
starting
position
for
the
exercise
to
be
performed.
If
there
is
any
slack
in
the
cable
or
chain
as
an
exercise
is
performed,
the
effectiveness
of
the
exercise
will
be
reduced.
SELECTING
A
WEIGHT
SETTING
The
weight
stack
includes
twenty
10
pound
weights.
The
weight
setting
can
be
changed
by
inserting
the
Weight
Pin
(49)
under
the
desired
Weight
(46).
Make
sure
to
insert
the
Weight
Pin
until
the
bent
end
is
touching
the
Weights,
and
turn
the
bent
end
down¬
ward.
The
weight
setting
can
be
increased
from
10
pounds
to
200
pounds
in
increments
of
10
pounds.
Note:
Because
of
the
cables
and
pulleys,
the
actu¬
al
amount
of
resistance
at
each
exercise
station
may
vary
from
the
weight
setting.
See
the
WEIGHT
RESISTANCE
CHART
on
page
20
of
this
