HOW TO USE THE TRAINING SYSTEM 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 set up for each exercise. IMPORTANT: When attaching the lat bar, ab strap, or nylon strap, make sure that the attachments are in the correct starting position for the exercise to be performed.
ATTACHING THE AB STRAP TO THE AB PULLEY STATION Attach the Ab Strap (81) to the Ab Cable (47) at the ab pulley station with a Cable Clip (69). 47 69 81 ADJUSTING THE BACKREST 2 To adjust a Backrest (12), loosen the Adjustment Knob (5) on the Press Upright (2) or the Butterfly Upright (not shown) by turning it counterclockwise and pulling it out as far as possible. Slide the Backrest forward or backward to the desired position, and snap the Adjustment Knob into a hole in the Backrest Frame (not shown).
WEIGHT RESISTANCE CHART This chart shows the approximate weight resistance at each weight station. “Top” refers to the 10 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. Note: 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.
TROUBLE-SHOOTING AND MAINTENANCE Inspect and tighten all parts 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 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 DIAGRAMS The cable diagrams on this page and the next page show the proper routing of the Leg Press Cable (75), the Ab Cable (47), the Butterfly Cable (73), and the Weight Cable (72). Use the diagrams to be sure that the Cables have been assembled correctly. The starting and ending points of each Cable have been labeled. The numbers show the proper route for each Cable. IMPORTANT: If the Cables have not been correctly routed, the training system will not function properly and damage may occur.
