⊗
To secure the weights, insert the dowel pins straight into the borings. Otherwise,
the dowel pins might tilt during motion.
⊗
Do not put your hands between the snap-on weights. Otherwise, there is a risk
of injury
⊗
Do not let the weights impact on the weight bundle during and after exercise.
Always make sure that the weights fall smoothly on the bundle.

Additional weight
Equipment with MED labeling provides two additional weights (2.5 kg). The can be added
incrementally as needed. Turn the labeled handle above the weight stack clockwise, until
position „1“ (additional weight of 2,5 kg) or position „2“ (additional weight of 5 kg) is
shown. In position „0“ the additional weights are not activated.

Eccentric function
When designing strength training machines, strength curves are often made use of. The
aim of considering strength curves is to ensure the correct and targetted adjustment of
the resistance for the respective abilities of the muscle to be trained. This means
concretely that training stimuli can be used optimally by almost all parts of a muscle.
The technological aid for this purpose is the eccentric technique. The eccentric is
connected with the rotation axis of the exercise machine via which the load of the
training weight is transferred to the lever arm (moment arm) that is moved by the
trainee. The set weight is transferred to the outer border of the eccentric disc via a flat
belt.
