Remove the M10 x 53mm Button Bolt (147) and the
M10 Locknut (79) attaching the lower 90mm Pulley
(58), the Small Cable Trap (63), and the Half Guards
(40) to the Pulley Plates (74). Reattach the Pulley,
Small Cable Trap, and Half Guards to the next higher
set of holes in the Pulley Plates with the Button Bolt
and Locknuts. Repeat until the cables are tight.
To loosen the cables, move the 90mm Pulley (58) to a
lower hole in the Pulley Plates (74).
Remove the M10 x 53mm Button Bolt (147) and the
M10 Locknut (79) attaching the 90mm Pulley (58), the
Small Cable Trap (63), and two Half Guards (40) to a
U-bracket (47). Reattach the Pulley, Small Cable Trap,
and Half Guards to the higher set of holes in the U-
bracket with the Bolt and Locknut.
Tighten the M6 Locknut (80) and the M6 Washer (86)
onto the Low Cable (72) two complete turns.
Additional slack can be removed from the cables by
tightening a cable into the M6 Locknut (80) inside of a
Clip (53). To do this, pull the Cable Stop (52) back
and use a pair of pliers or a screwdriver to tighten the
Locknut. Then, replace the Cable Stop.
TIGHTENING THE CABLES
Woven cable, the type of cable used on the weight bench, can stretch slightly when it is first used. If there is
slack in the cables before resistance is felt, the cables should be tightened. Make sure that the cables are not
too tight, or the weight carriage will be lifted. Slack can be removed in the following ways.

Cable
Do not overtighten the cables. If a cable tends to slip off the pulleys often, the cable may have become
twisted. Remove the cable and re-install it.
If a cable needs to be replaced, see ORDERING REPLACEMENT
PARTS on the back cover of this manual.
Make sure all parts are properly tightened each time the weight bench is used. Replace any worn parts immediate-
ly. The weight bench can be cleaned with a damp cloth and mild, non-abrasive detergent;
do not use solvents.
