IMPORTANT PRECAUTIONS
1. Before beginning any exercise program,
consult your physician. This is especially
important for persons over the age of 35 or
persons with pre-existing health problems.
2. It is the responsibility of the owner to ensure
that all users of the weight system are ade-
quately informed of all precautions.
3. Your weight system is intended for home
use only. Do not use your weight system in a
commercial, rental, or institutional setting.
4. Use your weight system only on a level sur-
face. Cover the floor beneath the weight sys-
tem to protect the floor.
5. Inspect and properly tighten all parts regu-
larly. Replace any worn parts immediately.
6. Keep children under age 12 and pets away
from your weight system at all times.
7. Your weight system should not be used by
persons weighing more than 300 lbs.
(136 kg).
8. Wear appropriate exercise clothes when
exercising; do not wear loose clothes that
could become caught on your weight sys-
tem. Always wear athletic shoes for foot pro-
tection.
9. Keep hands and feet away from moving
parts.
10. Always secure the weight stack with the lock
pin and lock after exercising to prevent
unauthorized use of the weight system (see
OCKING THE WEIGHT STACK on page 20).
11. Make sure that the cables remain on the pul-
leys at all times. If the cables bind as you
are exercising, stop immediately and make
sure that the cables are on the pulleys.
12. Always stand on the foot plate when per-
forming an exercise that could cause the
weight system to tip.
13. Never release the arms, leg lever, lat bar, or
handle strap while weights are raised. The
weights will fall with great force.
14. Always disconnect the lat bar from the
weight system when performing an exercise
that does not use the lat bar.
15. If you feel pain or dizziness while exercising,
stop immediately and begin cooling down.
16. Use your weight system only as described in
this manual.

instructions in this manual and all warnings on your weight system before using your weight sys-
tem. ICON assumes no responsibility for personal injury or property damage sustained by or

ASSEMB Y
The Four Stages of the Assembly Process
Frame Assembly—You will begin by assembling
the base and the uprights that form the skeleton of
the weight system.
Arm Assembly—During this stage you will
assemble the arms and the leg lever.
Cable Assembly—During this stage you will
attach the cables and pulleys that connect the
arms to the weights.
Seat Assembly—During the final stage you will
assemble the seat and the backrest.
Before beginning assembly, carefully read the
following information and instructions:
• Assembly requires two persons.
• Because of its weight and size, the weight sys-
tem should be assembled in the location where it
will be used. Make sure that there is enough
clearance to walk around the weight system as
you assemble it.
• To make assembly as easy as possible, we have
divided the assembly process into four stages.
The parts needed for each stage are found in
individual hardware kits.
• Place all parts in a cleared area and remove the
packing materials. Do not dispose of the packing
materials until assembly is completed.
• For help identifying small parts, use the PART
IDE TIFICATIO CHART on page 5.
• As you assemble the weight system, make sure
all parts are oriented as shown in the drawings.
• Tighten all parts as you assemble them, unless
instructed to do otherwise.
• Assembly requires the included hex key and the
following tools (not included):
Two adjustable wrenches
One rubber mallet
One standard screwdriver
One Phillips screwdriver
Assembly will be more convenient if you have a
socket set, a set of open-end or closed-end
wrenches, or a set of ratchet wrenches.
Make Assembly Easier
Everything in this manual is designed to ensure
that the weight system can be assembled suc-
cessfully by almost anyone. By setting aside
plenty of time, assembly will go smoothly.
