Safety Guidelines And Practices

Cybex recommends that all fi tness equipment be used in a supervised area. It is recommended that the equipment 
be located in an access controlled area. Control is the responsibility of the owner. The extent of control is at the 
discretion of the owner. 

It is the responsibility of the purchaser/user of Cybex products to read and understand the owner’s manual, and 
warning labels; as well as instruct all individuals, whether end users or supervising personnel, on proper usage of the 
equipment.

PROPER USAGE:

Use machine only as described in the manual. Failing to follow proper instructions may result in injury. 

Do Not Lean Against or Pull

 On the framework, weight stack, or any component, whether machine is at rest or in 

use. Inappropriate or improper use may result in injury to users or third parties (bystanders).

Do not use machine if it is not located on a solid level surface or is improperly installed. 

Provide an adequate safety perimeter between the machine, walls and other equipment to ensure that the facility has 
the proper clearance for usage and training. 

SECURING EQUIPMENT: 

The machine has holes in the feet, which allow for ease in anchoring to the fl oor.  Cybex strongly recommends that, 
to eliminate rocking, tipping or falling over due to incorrect usage and misuse, equipment be secured to a solid, level 
surface.

1.

 The solid, level surface should not deviate more than 1/8” over a 10’ distance or as defi ned and required by local   

    building and architectural codes.

2.

  Anchoring of equipment must be completed by a qualifi ed licensed contractor.
