Make sure that all parts have been properly tightened. The use of the remaining parts will be explained in ADJUSTMENT, beginning on page 18 of this manual. Before using the training system, pull each cable a few times to be sure that the cables move smoothly over the pulleys. If one of the cables does not move smoothly, find and correct the problem.
ADJUSTMENT The instructions below describe how each part of the training system can be adjusted. Refer to the exercise guide accompanying this manual to see how the training system should be used for each exercise. IMPORTANT: When attaching the lat bar or nylon strap, make sure that the accessories are in the correct starting position for the exercise to be performed. If there is any slack in the cables or chain as an exercise is performed, the effectiveness of the exercise will be reduced.
WEIGHT RESISTANCE CHART This chart shows the approximate weight resistance at each exercise station. “Top” refers to the 6.5 lb. top weight. The other numbers refer to the 10 lb. weight plates. The butterfly arm resistance listed is the resistance for each butterfly arm.The actual resistance at each weight station may vary due to differences in individual weight plates, as well as friction between the cables, pulleys, and weight guides. WEIGHT PLATES High Pulley (lbs.) Arm Press (lbs.) Butterfly (lbs.
TROUBLE-SHOOTING AND MAINTENANCE Make sure all parts are properly tightened each time you use the training system. Replace any worn parts immediately. The training system can be cleaned using a damp cloth and mild non-abrasive detergent. Do not use solvents. TIGHTENING THE CABLES 23 Woven cable, the type of cable used on the training system, can stretch slightly when it is first used. If there is slack in the cables before resistance is felt, the cables should be tightened.
CABLE DIAGRAM The diagram below shows the proper routing of the Short Cable (23) and the Long Cable (69). Use the diagram to be sure that the cables and the cable traps have been assembled correctly. If the cables have not been correctly routed, the training system will not function properly and damage may occur. The cable traps should be positioned so that the cables will not come off the pulleys. Be sure that the cable traps do not touch or bind the cables.
