able Traps

Check the cable traps to ensure that they are not rub-

ing against the cables and that they are holding the

cables in the grooves of the pulleys. If a cable trap is

not correctly aligned, loosen the bolt slightly, readjust

the cable trap as necessary, and retighten the bolt.

WEIGHT GUIDE LUBRICATION

Clean and lubricate the full length of each weight

guide by wiping it with a soft cloth containing a light-

weight motor oil, 10W-40 or 10W-30 weight. Apply

only a light coating over the entire length of the weight

guide. Do not use TEFLON

-based lubricants.

CABLE ADJUSTMENT

For the strength equipment to function correctly, the

cables must be tensioned correctly. To check the ten-

sion of the cables, insert the weight pin into the weight

carriage. Next, slowly raise and lower the weight car-

riage by performing one repetition. The weight

carriage should come to rest just on top of the next

weight when the repetition is completed.

f there is too much tension on the cables, the weight

carriage will not rest on the next weight, and it may be

ifficult to insert the weight pin into the weights.

If there is not enough tension on the cables, the

weight carriage will not be lifted immediately when the

epetition is begun. Ideally, the cables should not

move more than 1/2 in. (1.3 cm) from the resting posi-

tion before the weight carriage is lifted.

If there is too much tension or not enough tension on

a cable, adjust the cable as described in the following

steps.

Weight Carriage Pulley Adjustment

Tools required: 5/16" hex key, 9/16" open-end wrench

1. Remove the access cover by pulling it free at the

bottom and then sliding it upward until the two sets

of tabs release.

2. Loosen the locknut attaching the pulley in the

bracket on the weight carriage.

3. Move the pulley to the appropriate location in the

bracket. If more slack is needed in the cable,

move the pulley upward. If less slack is needed in

the cable, move the pulley downward.

4. Make sure that the cable trap is properly oriented

(see CABLE TRAPS at the left) and retighten the

locknut attaching the pulley to the bracket.

5. Check the tension of the cables as described

above. Readjust as necessary.

6. Slowly perform a repetition using a light load and

have someone make sure that the cable is not

derailed from a pulley or rubbing on a cable trap.

7. Replace the access cover.
