instruction). Always maintain good form and control during
test. If you feel pain or are unable to maintain good form, stop

16. Use only Keiser accessories with your Functional Trainer to help
avoid the risk of injury and/or property damage.

19.
Do not pull Cable beyond maximum Cable length:

this may cause muscle strain. Always return the Cable to the

Keiser-certified technician should be consulted.
