To use the Barbell (18) or the Weight Carriage (7),
slide the desired amount of weight (not included) onto
the Barbell Adapters (22) or the Weight Carriage
Tubes (8). Secure the weights with the Weight Clips
(27).

Do not place more
than 310 lbs. (140 kg) on the Barbell (18), or
150 lbs. (68 kg) on the Weight Carriage (7).
Always place the same amount of weight on
each side of the Barbell or the Weight
Carriage. Always secure weights with the
Weight Clips (27).

Make sure that all parts are properly tightened each time the weight bench is used. Replace any worn parts
immediately. The weight bench can be cleaned with a damp cloth and a mild, non-abrasive detergent;
do not
use solvents to clean the weight bench
.
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. First, add weights to the weight car-
riage (
see ADDING WEIGHTS TO THE BARBELL OR THE WEIGHT CARRIAGE above)
.
Remove the M10 Nylon Locknut (65) and the M10 x
43mm Bolt (69) from the Cable Trap (55) and the
Small Pulley (33) near the lower end of the two Pulley
Plates (56). Reattach the Small Pulley and the Cable
Trap to the hole closer to the center of the Pulley
Plates.
Make sure that the Cable Trap is in the
proper position and that the Low Cable (52) and
the Small Pulley move smoothly.
If necessary, adjust the position of the Small Pulley
(33) near the upper end of the Pulley Plates (56) in
the same way.
Do not overtighten the cables. If a cable tends to slip off the pulleys often, it 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.
