1. If the cable needs to be shortened 2 cm (3/4 in.)
or more, first follow the instructions in step 1 on
page 10. Then, go to step 2 below.
2. See the drawing in step 2 on page 10. Loosen
the locknut and move the pulley to the bottom of
the slot.
3. Lift the coupler cover off the top weight coupler.
Loosen but do not remove the two set screws
from each side of the weight coupler.
4. Pull the cable from the top weight coupler.
Determine the amount the cable needs to be
shortened and cut that much off the end of the
cable.
The cable must be long enough to be
held by the set screws without lifting the top
weight off the third weight.
5. Cut the cable to the desired length and strip
2 1/2 cm (1 in.) of the vinyl sheeting from the cut
end of the cable.
6. Insert the cable into the top weight coupler until
all four set screws can be tightened against the
cable. Tighten each set screw alternately until all
four set screws have been tightened to 17
Newton-meters (150 inch/pounds).
7. Lower the coupler cover over the top weight
coupler.
