dumbbell.handle.does.not.fully.insert.into.
base.when.no.plates.are.selected.(handle.
has.no.plates.attached)..
1... make.certain.that.both.adjustment.knobs.are.set.directly.to.the.num-
ber.5.
dumbbell.handle.does.not.fully.insert.into.base.
when. plates. are. selected. (handle. has. plates.
attached)..
1.. check.to.see.if.you.have.selected.different.weights.on.each.side.of.the.
dumbbell.(for.example.one.adjustment.knob.is.set.to.2.and.the.other.is.
set.to.3)..if.this.is.the.case,.you.must.replace.the.dumbbell.in.the.base.
with.the.same.orientation.in.which.was.withdrawn..this.is.to.allow.
the.plates.to.settle.back.into.the.correct.and.vacant.openings.in.the.
base.
2... verify. that. the. plates. not. selected. (those. plates. remaining. in. the.
dumbbell.base).are.in.their.correct.spots.and.have.not.been.moved.to.
a.different.support.slot..this.may.be.blocking.the.dumbbell.from.fitting.
back.into.the.base.
adjustment.knob.will.not.turn.while.handle.
is.in.base.
1.. check.to.assure.that.the.dumbbell.handle.is.fully.depressed.into.the.
dumbbell.base..if.not.fully.depressed,.the.locking.mechanism.will.not.
be.released.and.may.be.keeping.the.adjustment.knobs.from.rotating.
2.. check.to.see.if.any.weight.plates.have.been.put.into.the.base.assem-
bly.backwards.with.the.“locking.tab”.facing.the.grip.of.the.dumbbell.
handle..all.weight.plates.must.have.the.selection.tongue.facing.away.
from.the.grip.of.the.dumbbell.handle.
3.. check. to. see. if. there. is. any. dirt,. debris. or. other. obstruction. in. the.
dumbbell.base..you.may.need.to.remove.the.weight.plates.from.the.
base.to.accomplish.this.check..remember.to.put.each.weight.plate.
back.in.its.appropriate.location.with.the.selection.tongue.facing.away.
from.the.dumbbell.grip.
..plates.are.not.secured.to.the.handle.and.drop.out.
1.. confirm.that.all.of.the.weight.plates.have.the.“locking.tab”.facing.
away.from.the.dumbbell.grip.(see.figure.b,.page.5)..if.one.or.more.
of. the. weights. are. inserted. backwards. with. “locking. tab”. facing.
inward.toward.grip,.the.handle.can.get.blocked,.and.the.plates.may.
wedge.into.the.handle.
2.. verify. that. the. plates. not. selected. (those. plates. remaining. in. the.
dumbbell.base).are.in.their.correct.spots.and.have.not.been.moved.
to.a.different.support.slot..this.may.be.blocking.the.dumbbell.from.
fitting.back.into.the.base.
