IMPORTANT PRECAUTIONS
WARNING:
To reduce the risk of serious injury, read all important precautions and
instructions in this manual and all warnings on the weight system before using the weight system.
ICON assumes no responsibility for personal injury or property damage sustained by or through the
use of this product.
1. It is the responsibility of the owner to ensure
that all users of the weight system are
adequately informed of all precautions.
2. Before beginning any exercise program,
consult your physician. This is especially
important for persons over age 35 or per-
sons with pre-existing health problems.
3. The weight system is not intended for use by
persons with reduced physical, sensory, or
mental capabilities or lack of experience and
knowledge, unless they are given supervi-
sion or instruction about use of the weight
system by someone responsible for their
safety.
4. Use the weight system only as described in
this manual.
5. The weight system is intended for home use
only. Do not use the weight system in a com-
mercial, rental, or institutional setting.
6. Keep the weight system indoors, away from
moisture and dust. Do not put the weight
system in a garage or covered patio, or near
water.
7. Use the weight system only on a level sur-
face. Cover the floor beneath the weight
system to protect the floor.
8. Inspect and properly tighten all parts each
time the weight system is used. Replace any
worn parts immediately.
9. Keep children under age 13 and pets away
from the weight system at all times.
10. The weight system should not be used
by persons weighing more than 300
lbs. (136 kg).
11. Wear appropriate exercise clothes while
exercising; do not wear loose clothes that
could become caught on the weight system.
Always wear athletic shoes for foot protec-
tion while exercising.
12. Keep hands and feet away from moving parts.
13. Always secure the weight stack with the
lock pin and lock after exercising to pre-
vent unauthorized use of the weight system
(see LOCKING THE WEIGHT STACK on
page 21).
14. Make sure that the cables remain on the pul-
leys at all times. If the cables bind while you
are exercising, stop immediately and make
sure that the cables are on the pulleys.
15. Always stand on the foot plate while perform-
ing an exercise that could cause the weight
system to tip.
16. Never release the arms, leg lever, lat bar, or
handle strap while weights are raised; the
weights will fall with great force.
17. Always disconnect the lat bar from the
weight system before performing an exercise
that does not require the lat bar.
18. Over exercising may result in serious injury
or death. If you feel faint, if you become short
of breath, or if you experience pain while
exercising, stop immediately and cool down.
