NOTE: During assembly, it is recommended
to ensure that all bolts are in place and
partially threaded before completely
tightening any one bolt. During assembly
steps 1 thru 5, do not completely tighten
any bolts until completion of Step 5.
• Lay the main floor support (AC1) on the
ground, pulley brackets facing up. Place
the end opposite of the pulley brackets
against the side of the left floor support
(AC5). Align the main floor support holes
with the 3rd and 4th holes from the end of
the left floor support. Secure using two
bolts (M10x70), four flat washers
(10.2x22x2), and two nylon nuts (M10).
• Stand the weight stack tower (AB1)
upright and place the previously
assembled floor supports (AC1 & AC5) up
against holes in the tower. Slide three bolts
(M10x70) with three flat washers
(10.2x22x2) through the holes, securing
the bolts with three more flat washers and
three nylon nuts (M10).

• Loosely secure top and bottom shield
brackets to weight stack tower using eight
bolts (M5x10), eight lock washers
(5.1x9.3x1.3), and eight flat washers
(5.3x10x1) provided. Repeat for all side
brackets.
• Place two rubber weight plate bumpers
over the holes in the lower cross tube of
the weight stack tower. With the horizontal
holes of the guide rods at the top, place
them over and through the rubber weight
plate bumpers into the weight stack tower.
Let the guide rods tilt outward from the
tower. Slide each of the 15 weight plates
over both of the guide rods on top of one
another. Place the header weight plate
over both guide rods on top of other
weight plates.
• Make sure rubber guide rod sleeves are
in place in top holes of the weight stack
tower. Lift the guide rods into top of weight
stack tower until holes in the guide rod are
lined up with the horizontal holes on the
top of the weight stack tower. Insert a bolt
(M8x62) with a flat washer (8.4x15.5x1.6)
through each guide rod and fasten with
another flat washer and nylon nut (M8).

• Set the swing arm support (AC4)
against the remaining holes in the side of
the main floor support (AC1) and secure
using two bolts (M10x70), four flat washers
(10.2x22x2) and two nylon nuts (M10).

(10.2x22x2), and two nylon nuts (M10)
to secure the swing arm support side of the
bracket. Use two bolts (M10x140), four
flat washers and two nylon nuts, respectively,
to secure weight stack tower side.

• Slide the bracket of the arm pad support
(AC2) over the left floor support (AC5),
aligning the holes in both pieces. Make
sure the pad plate is facing forward of the
machine. See diagram for clarification.
Secure using two bolts (M10x75), four flat
washers (10.2x22x2), and two nylon nuts
(M10).
• Place the connecting brace (AG2)
between the arm pad support (AC2) and
swing arm support (AC4), aligning holes
on both sides. On the arm pad support
side, use two bolts (M10x70), four flat
washers (10.2x22x2), and two nylon nuts
(M10) to secure. On the swing arm support
side, use two bolts (M10x120), four more
flat washers, and two more nylon nuts.
• Take the main seat support (AC3) and
place over the remaining holes in the left
floor support (AC5). Connect using four
bolts (M10x75), eight flat washers

• Attach the weight stack tower bracket
(Z35) to the weight stack tower using two
bolts (M10x65), four flat washers
(10.2x22x2), and two nylon nuts (M10).
• To attach the swing arm (AF3) and range
of motion plate (AF1), slide the 297mm axle
through hole in bracket on swing arm
support (AC4). Slide on a flat washer
(20.5x26.5x4), swing arm, wavy washer
(20.7x29.1x0.3), and range of motion
plate, in that order. The axle should then go
through the weight stack tower bracket and
be secured with a bushing, flat washer
(13x26x2.5), lock washer (12.2x21.5x3),
and bolt (M12x25). Make sure the flats on
the axle match up with those on the brackets.
• Slide the workout handle (AE1) onto the
shaft of the swing arm (AF3) and secure
using a large flat washer (12.5x38x3), a
flat washer (13x26x2.5), a lock washer
(12.2x21.5x3), and a bolt (M12x25).
Lifting the handle slightly will reveal an opening
in the shaft that a bolt (M8x20) can be
threaded into to prevent the workout handle
from flopping around dangerously. Attach
the counterweight to the swing arm using
two bolts (M10x25) and two flat washers
(10.2x22x2). Tighten all hardware. Make
sure the swing arm axle is level after
hardware is tightened.

down and around pulley C. Now guide
the cable around pulleys D (loosen pulley
D and make sure cable is routed between
the post and the pulley) and E and through
pulleys F and G. Attach loop end into the
range of motion plate (AF1) by sliding a
shoulder bolt (M8x12) through the bracket
and loop. Secure with a nut(M8).

• Attach the seat post (AT1) to the seat
bracket by sliding four bolts (M10x45)
and four flat washers (10.2x22x2)
through the bracket. Fasten four more flat
washers (10.2x22x2) and four nylon nuts
(M10) on the bottom.
• Take the seat post assembly (AT1) and
attach the seat bottom using four bolts
(M10x50) and four flat washers
(10.2x22x2). Attach seat back to the sup-
port using two bolts (M10x25).

RESISTANCE TRAINING BENEFITS AND TIPS
Always consult a physician before starting an exercise program.
To be successful in your exercise program, it is important to develop an understanding of the basic principles of
resistance training. Now that you have assembled your VISION FITNESS gym, it is only natural that you want to
get started immediately. First, determine a few realistic, short term goals and expectations for yourself. Choose an
appropriate exercise routine that best suits your individual needs. Any of the 3 programs, explained in the Training
Programs section below, is a great starting point.
Warm up properly before engaging in resistance training. Stretching, yoga, jogging, calisthenics, or other cardiovascular
exercise can help prepare your body for the heavier workload of lifting weights.
Learn how to perform the exercise correctly before using heavy weight. Correct form is important to avoid injury
and ensure that you work the proper muscle groups.
Know your limitations. If you are new to resistance training or are starting back, after an extended layoff, start slowly
and build foundational strength over a longer period of time.
Pay attention to your breathing. As a general rule of thumb: inhale on the non-exertion part of the movement and
exhale during the exertion portion. Never hold your breath.
Keep in mind how important the recovery phase is in achieving your goals. The general rule is to allow a minimum
of 48-72 hours before training the same muscle/s. If you still experience soreness after this period of time has
elapsed, take a few additional days until the soreness has subsided.
Use this manual to guide you through the basic exercises you can perform on your VISION FITNESS gym. To achieve
maximum results and avoid possible injury, consult a fitness professional to formulate a complete exercise program.
