SETTING UP THE STRENGTH MACHINE
Stand on the deck with your back against the back-
rest. Lift the shoulder pads and squeeze the release
handle to disengage the pop pin (not shown) from the
adjustment bracket. Lower the shoulder pads to the
lowest position to which you want them to go.
This
position should be one that will allow the squat
exercise to be performed, but not allow the user to
become pinned under the shoulder pads if a repe-
tition cannot be completed.
Release the release
handle and engage the pop pin into the adjustment
bracket.
When finished with the exercise, squeeze the release
handle and raise the should pads. Release the
release handle and engage the pop pin into the
adjustment bracket.

WARNING:
Do not lower the
backrest to a position that causes the lower
back to move away from the backrest.
IMPORTANT:
The user’s feet
should be close enough to the lower edge of the
deck that the lower back does not move away from
the backrest as the backrest is lowered. Shorter
users should stand closer to the lower edge of the
deck than taller users. Improper positioning of the
feet will cause discomfort in the lower back.
