When the tower begins to pull away from the upper rails, grasp the upper rail
where indicated on the inside of the rail just above the hinge (indicated on
both sides) and continue to unfold the rails and lower them to the floor. As the
rails straighten, guide the glideboard rollers into the groove of the upper rail if
needed.
Caution! As the rails get close to the floor, the rails feel heavier. To avoid
pinching the rollers in the hinges, do not drop the rails.

FOLDING FOOT HOLDER INSTALLATION
Your Total Gym GTST M arrives with the folding foot holder, which needs to be installed.
Remove the folding foot holder from the box and install it on the upper rails.
Place the rails at or above level
10 so you have room to install
the folding foot holder from
underneath the rails. Aim one
pin into the hole of a rail while
holding the folding foot holder
upper bar even with the middle of
the rails.
Continue to hold the folding foot
holder upper bar even with the
middle of the rails. Pull the pin on
the other side. Align and insert it
into the hole in the opposite rail,
and release the pin. Ensure both
pins are fully engaged in the rails.
Folding Foot Holder Use Position: Pull
up on the upper bar to engage the folding
foot holder for use. Depress the lever where
indicated to fold down when not in use.
TELESCOPING SQUAT STAND ASSEMBLY
There are two attachments that make up the telescoping squat stand assembly—the
folding platform attachment and the squat stand attachment.
FOLDING PLATFORM ATTACHMENT
Stand at the base of the rails facing the
tower. Hold the folding platform with a hand
on each post. Partially angle the posts
toward the glideboard. Align the upper fixed
pin on the left with the top hole on the lower
rail. Allow the lower pull-pin to press against
the plate on the left side of the rail as you
guide the upper fixed pin into the hole.
When the fixed pin is inserted into the hole
gently move the folding platform to the
right. Then lower the right side of the folding
platform down to align the right pull-pin into
the plate on the right lower rail as shown
below. You may need to pull the right pull-pin.
