or she can determine the exercise program that is

appropriate for your particular age and condition.

or shortness of breath while exercising, stop the

instructions contained in the owner’s manual  is essential

while exercising.

in an elevated position. Do not use the machine if it is
found in this position. Call your  repair facility or consult
your assembly guides if this occurs.

• Inspect all cables, belts or chains and their connections

prior to every exercising. Do not use the machine if any
component is found worn or damaged.

• Never use dumbbells or any other means to incrementally

increase the machine’s weight resistance, other than those
means provided by Nautilus.

• Never allow children on the machine. Teenagers should

always have parental supervision in the use of this
machine .

• Never move or adjust the bench while sitting or lying on

the bench. Never stand on the bench.

• Before exercising, make sure the spring lock seat pin is

securely fastened and the bench is firmly in place.

• Inspect your machine before each workout. Periodically

check all fasteners to make sure none have loosened with
use. Tighten if necessary.

• Never attempt to exercise with more resistance than you

are physically able to handle.
