superior products are released from our factories. Please take the time to carefully read through this manual thoroughly. Instructions 

contained in this document are not intended to cover all details or variations possible with Body-Solid equipment, or to cover every 

contingency that may be met in conjunction with installation, operation, maintenance or troubleshooting of the equipment. Even

Required Tools

The basic tools that you must obtain before assembling

the 

GAB100

 include but are not limited to:

Metric Allen Key Set

Metric Wrench Set

Adjustable Wrench

Installation Requirements

Follow these installation requirements when assembling

the 

GAB100

:

Set up the 

GAB100

 on a solid, flat surface. A smooth, flat

surface under the machine helps keep it level. A

level machine has fewer malfunctions.

Provide ample space around the machine. Open

space around the machine allows for easier access.

Insert all bolts in the same direction. For aesthetic

purposes, insert all bolts in the same direction unless

specified (in text or illustrations) to do otherwise.

Leave room for adjustments. Tighten fasteners such as

bolts, nuts, and screws so the unit is stable, but leave

room for adjustments. Do not fully tighten fasteners

until instructed in the assembly steps to do so.

Fill out and mail the warranty card

.

Assembly Tips

Read all “Notes” on each page before beginning each 

step.

While you may be able to assemble the 

GAB100

 using 

the illustrations only, important safety notes and other 

tips are included in the text.

Some pieces may have extra holes that you will not use. 

Use only those holes indicated in the instructions and 

illustrations.

NOTE:

  With so many assembled parts, proper

 

alignment and adjustment is critical. While

 

tightening the nuts and bolts, be sure to leave

 

room for adjustments.

NOTE:

  The bottles that are marked “Poison” is your

 

touch up paint. Keep away from children.

CAUTION: 

Obtain assistance! If you feel like you can’t
