SoloStrength Ultimate Series Instruction Manual
3
Thank you for purchasing the SoloStrength Lifestyle Package. Whether you intend to use our adaptable tness
support system for personal use, or for the training and rehabilitation of others, we encourage you to read
the complete Owner’s Manual and Instruction Guide before getting started. We also suggest that you register
online, at www.SoloStrength.com,to stay up-to-date on all activities, accessories and promotions for your
SoloStrength System. Finally, please review our limited liability statement (found at the end of this document,
in our instruction guide, and on our website), which states that SoloStrength is not responsible for any injury
or damage resulting from misuse.
This system is everything you need to maintain your own balanced workout program. Regardless of age,
gender or tness level, you can target key muscle groups in both your upper and lower body. Whether your
goal is weight loss, body sculpting, healthy living or increased energy, SoloStrength can help you succeed.
Strength training not only tones and conditions the muscles you use every day to stand, walk, lift and turn, it
can actually transform your body composition. By decreasing the proportion of body fat and increasing the
proportion of lean muscle, strength training can turn up your metabolic thermostat, allowing you to burn more
calories all the time, even at rest.
Read through the Owner’s Manual carefully.
It is the authoritative source for information about your SoloStrength System. To start developing a full body
conditioning program that works for you, please see the instruction guide and online video tutorials.
SoloStrength is not intended for use by children under 12 years old, and all minors should be supervised by
an adult while using the system to ensure proper use and safety.
To ensure that it is safe for you to exercise on your Solostrength (or any other equipment), we recommend
that you consult a doctor. While the SoloStrength SpeedFit and Lifestyle Package provides a comprehensive
guide for safe movements, you may also benet from consulting a personal trainer or physiotherapist about
customized programs. For other inquiries on how to get the most out of your SoloStrength, please email our
professional trainers or visit our website.
Your SoloStrength Package includes instructional video access online which will be provided by email. If
codes.

Please read through instructions before beginning, and ensure all parts are laid out. If you discover any de-
for assistance.
During assembly, you may require use of a small amount of lubrication (some provided or common multi-use
silicone base spray such as wd-40) to t snug metal pieces together and inside the main slider channel.
A durable coated surface on all metal parts has been used to protect the look and function of your system.
Avoid scratching surface and contact with sharp or foreign metal objects.
Do not allow more than one person to hang on the support bar at one time. Do not bounce or stand on the bar.
Only apply weight to the bar when it is level and the handles are locked on each side. Handles are not locked
until the security rings (or grooves) are fully exposed on the bar.
There is ample room in the slider and slider channel to allow for some freedom and ease of movement while
adjusting the bar height. Do not force the bar to slide if stuck or lodged, gently attempt to level the bar out of
the jam and continue.
While adjusting the bar height, ensure that the locking pins are pulled completely back to keep the pins from
knocking on the inside of the slider channel and damaging the nish on your system.
SoloStrength is intended for indoor use, or covered outdoors. It is recommended to keep your system out of
direct sunlight for extended periods, high humidity or wet environments. If set outdoors, we recommend a
covered roof or gazebo of your deck or outdoor living area. UV damage or discoloring of certain components
may occur if directly exposed to the sun.
To limit resistance on the sliding mechanisms, we recommend applying a small amount of silicone based
lubrication inside the channels to keep the adjustments smooth and quiet. The lubrication is included in
the package. Common sprays such as WD40 are okay. Please note maintenance notes in this manual.
We recommend keeping the bar set to highest level to avoid accidents when not in use.
Safety Instructions and Lables
1.
BEFORE PLACING WEIGHT ON THE HORIZONTAL SUPPORT BAR, ENSURE THAT THE BAR IS SET
LEVEL, AND THE OVAL SPRING HOLES ARE SHOWING BY THE ORANGE PULL FLANGES, INDICATING
THAT THE PINS ARE LOCKED INTO THE SUPPORT HOLES. (Continued on the next page)

DO NOT SWING YOUR BODY ON SOLOSTRENGTH SYSTEMS.
AT NO TIME IS IT SAFE TO USE SOLOSTRENGTH AS A SWING BAR, IT IS MEANT AS SUPPORT FOR
FULL OR PARTIAL BODYWEIGHT TO EXECUTE ONLY THE SUGGESTED ACTIVITIES IN THE SPEEDFIT
PROGRAM GUIDE THAT COMES WITH THIS PACKAGE. ALL OTHER ACTIVITIES ARE DONE SO AT THE
USERS OWN RISK AND ARE NOT RECOMMENDED.
CRUSH HAZARD, KEEP HANDS CLEAR OF SLIDERS DURING USE AND FRAME WHILE FOLDING FOR
STORAGE OR TRANSPORT.
KEEP HAIR, FINGERS, LOOSE CLOTHING, PETS AND CHILDREN AWAY FROM MOVING PARTS TO AVOID
SERIOUS INJURY. ALSO BE SURE TO HAVE ALL PINS LOCKED IN PLACE BEFORE GETTING ON YOUR
SOLOSTRENGTH SYSTEM.
KEEP THE INSIDE RAILS FREE OF DUST AND DEBRIS. THERE MAY BE A NEED FROM TIME TO TIME
TO CLEAN THE INSIDE OF RAILS AND SLIDER GUIDE AND REAPPLY A SMALL AMOUNT OF GREASE TO
ENSURE SMOOTH SLIDING AND THIS SHOULD BE PART OF A REGULAR MAINTENANCE PROGRAM.
DUE TO THE INTENSITY OF ENGAGING IN FULL BODY EXERCISE AND RESISTANCE ACTIVITY, IT
IS RECOMMENDED TO START MUCH LIGHTER AND EASIER THAN YOU THINK YOU CAN HANDLE
COMFORTABLY AT FIRST, AS SOME MUSCLE TIGHTENING AND POSSIBLY SORENESS MAY RESULT
FROM RUSHING AND PUSHING YOURSELF TOO QUICKLY, PARTICULARLY DURING THE FIRST FEW
WEEKS OF USE.
Always use SoloStrength in the tone and manner in which it is instructed in the program guide. Because of
the versatility and many possibilities that an adjustable support bar oers, the owners/users must accept all
responsibilities for injury which may result from misuse.
Do not swing yourself or anyone else on your support bar or frame. Tipping hazard exists with misuse.
Before beginning this or any exercise program, consult a physician or health professional, who can assist
you in planning a program appropriate for your age and physical condition. This is especially important if you
are over age 35 or have pre-existing health problems.
Do not overexert yourself. Stop exercising immediately and consult your doctor if you experience pain or
tightness in your chest, irregular heartbeat, shortness of breath, or if you feel faint, nauseous, or dizzy.
This product is designed for home and commercial use, built to exceed commercial grade quality and
durability standards. While the support bar is tested to over 1000 lbs static weight, maximum single person
weight capacity for exercise movements is suggested at 300 Lbs. Use only as instructed.
Inspect your system before each use to ensure proper operation. Do not use this equipment unless all
moving parts are working properly. See details on inspection, maintenance and storage.
Ensure there is no debris under the frame or support feet of your SoloStrength System. If debris is under
foot pads (doorway and wall mount), or support feet (freestanding), damage to hard oor may result.
Use only the accessory items recommended by the manufacturer.
