FRAME ASSEMBLY
Before beginning assembly, carefully read the
following information and instructions:
•Assembly requires two people.
•Place all parts in a cleared area and remove the
packing materials. Do not dispose of the packing
materials until assembly is completed.
•Tighten all parts as you assemble them, unless
instructed to do otherwise.
•As you assemble the weight system, make sure
all parts are oriented as shown in the drawings.
• For help identifying small parts, use the PART
IDENTIFICATION C ART in the centre of this
manual.
The following tools (not included) are required
for assembly:
• two adjustable spanners
• one rubber mallet
• one standard screwdriver
• one Phillips screwdriver
• lubricant, such as grease or petroleum jelly,
and soapy water.
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 Things Easier for Yourself
Everything in this manual is designed to ensure
that the weight system can be assembled suc-
cessfully by anyone. However, it is important to
realise that the versatile weight system has
many parts and that the assembly process will
take time. Most people find that by setting aside
plenty of time, assembly will go smoothly.

ADDING WEIG TS TO T E WEIG T CARRIAGE
To add resistance to your workout, slide an equal
amount of weight (not included) onto each side of the
weight tube on the Weight Carriage (19). Make sure
that the weights are pushed against the stops. Secure
the weights with two Spring Clips (61). Note: Due to
the cables and pulleys, the actual amount of
resistance at each exercise station may vary from
the amount of weight used. Use the WEIG T
RESISTANCE C ART on page 17 to find the actu-
al amount of resistance at each weight station.
ATTAC ING T E LAT BAR OR NYLON STRAP TO
A PULLEY STATION
Attach the at Bar (54) to the ong Cable (58) with a
Cable Clip (53). For some exercises, the Chain (52)
should be attached between the at Bar and the ong
Cable with two Cable Clips. Adjust the length of the
Chain between the Lat Bar and the Long Cable so
the Lat Bar is in the correct starting position for
the exercise to be performed.
The Nylon Strap (not shown) can be attached in the
same manner.
The accessories can be attached to the Short Cable
(not shown) in the same manner.
WARNING: Do not place more
than 57 kg (125 lbs.) on the weight carriage.
Always secure weights on the Weight
Carriage (19) with two Spring Clips (61).

WEIG T RESISTANCE C ART
This chart shows the approximate weight resistance at each weight station. The column labelled “WEIGHT”
refers to the amount of weight, in pounds, placed on the weight carriage. The weight resistance shown for the
butterfly arm station is for each butterfly arm. Note: The actual resistance at each station may vary due to
friction between the cables, pulleys, and weight carriage.
Note: 1 lb. = .454 kg

TROUBLES OOTING AND MAINTENANCE
Make sure all parts are properly tightened each time you use the weight system. Replace any worn parts immedi-
ately. The weight system can be cleaned using a damp cloth and mild non-abrasive detergent. Do not use solvents.
TIG TENING T E CABLES
Woven cable, the type of cable used on the weight system, can stretch slightly when it is first used. If there is
slack in the cables before resistance is felt, the cables should be tightened.
Slack can be removed from the Short Cable (23) by
tightening the M8 Nylon ocknut (3) at the end of the
Cable.
Additional slack can be removed by moving the
90mm Pulley (15) to the other hole in the ong “U”-
Bracket (57). Remove the M10 Nylon ocknut (21)
and the M10 x 50mm Bolt (12) from the Pulley
Covers (73), the Pulley, and the “U”-Bracket. Re-
attach the Pulley and the Pulley Covers to the other
hole in the “U”-Bracket with the Bolt and Nylon
ocknut. Make sure that the Cable and Pulley
move smoothly.
Note: If a cable tends to slip off the pulleys, the
cable may have become twisted. Remove the
cable and re-install it. If a cable needs to be
replaced, see ORDERING REPLACEMENT PARTS
on the back cover of this manual.

CABLE DIAGRAM
The cable diagram below shows the proper routing of the Short Cable (23) and the ong Cable (58). Use the
diagram to make sure that the two cables and the cable traps have been assembled correctly. If the cables have
not been correctly routed, the weight system will not function properly and damage may occur. The numbers
show the correct route for each cable. The starting and ending points of each cable are labelled. The small
drawings show the correct position of each cable trap. Make sure that the cable traps do not touch or bind
the cables.
