1. Weight Stack Guide Rods:
• Clean and lubricate the full length by wiping
using a soft cloth containing a lightweight
motor oil, 10W-40 or 10W-30 weight. Apply only
a light coating over the entire length.
Note: Do
not use TEFLON
®
or silicone-based lubri-
cants.
CABLE TENSION CHECK
1. Insert the weight pin into the top weight plate.
2. Slowly raise and lower the top weight by normal
machine use. The top weight should come to
rest just on top of the third weight when the
press frame is returned to the resting position.
• If there is too much tension on the cable, the
top weight will not rest on the second weight,
and it may be difficult to insert the weight pin
into the weight plates.
• If there is not enough tension on the cable, the
top weight will not be lifted immediately when
the press frame is pushed. Ideally, the cable
should not move more than 1 1/2 cm (1/2 in.)
from the resting position before the top weight
begins to be lifted.
3. If there is too much or not enough tension on the
cable, adjust the cable as described in CABLE
ADJUSTMENTS.
