Before beginning assembly, carefully read the
following information and instructions:
•
Assembly requires two people.
•
Place all parts in a cleared area and remove the
packing materials. Do not dispose of the packing
materials until assembly is completed.
•
Tighten all parts as you assemble them, unless
instructed to do otherwise.
•
As you assemble the weight rack, make sure all
parts are oriented as shown in the drawings.
•
For help identifying small parts, use the PART
IDENTIFICATION CHART on page 5.
The following tools (not included) are required
for assembly:
• Two adjustable wrenches
• One rubber mallet
• One standard screwdriver
• One Phillips screwdriver
• Lubricant, such as grease or petroleum jelly,
and soapy water.
Assembly will be more convenient if you have a
socket set, a set of open-end or closed-end
wrenches, or a set of ratchet wrenches.

ize that the versatile weight rack has many parts
and that the assembly process will take time.
Most people find that by setting aside plenty of
time, assembly will go smoothly.
