(1.9”).
12e. Do not exceed the maximum weight capacity of the machine. Maximum plate size is
45 lbs. (25 kg.).
13. On Selectorized and Cable equipped machines:
13a. Do not allow users to perform any exercise by holding the end of the cable and/or the
cable end fitting. Use only appropriate handles or attachments properly connected to
the cable end.
13b. Do not high-pin or double-pin the weight stack. Do not allow the machine to be used if
the top plate or weight stack is pinned in a raised position. Use an assistant and
carefully return the machine to the proper position with the cap plate resting on the top
weight. Inspect the entire length of the cable to ensure that it is properly seated in all

RECAUTIONS
1. Read this Installation Manual entirely before assembling this equipment.
2. Verify that there is adequate space surrounding this piece of equipment for safe access and
operation. Installation must meet ADA requirements for accessibility.
3. Install this piece of equipment on a solid level surface that does not deviate more then 1/8”
over a 10’ distance (or as defined and required by local building and architectural codes.
4. Paramount strongly recommends that all equipment be anchored to the floor to prevent
movement and increase stability.
• Due to the wide variation of flooring on which the unit can be installed, contact a
qualified contractor to determine an appropriate fastening system for your floor.
• Use 3/8” diameter hardware (10 mm) to anchor the machine. Anchors should have a
minimum pull out force of 220 lbs (110 kgs) for each position.
• When attaching the machine to the floor, if there is a gap between the machine foot
and the floor, do not use the anchor to remove the gap as this can cause the
machine frame to deform. Instead, place a shim between the bottom of the foot and
the floor, then tighten the anchor.
• Anchoring holes are provided on the feet of the frame. All anchoring locations must
be used when anchoring the equipment to the floor.
5. DO NOT install any fitness equipment near a pool, hot tub or other damp locations. Corrosion
caused by installation in these locations can lead to premature failure of components.
6. Be sure all hardware is tight before using this machine.
