OWNER’S GUIDE | CONNECTING PULLEYS TO TOWER CROSSPINS IN CENTER CHANNEL OWNER’S GUIDE | CHANGING THE ADJUSTABLE GLIDEBOARD / GLIDEBOARD: WHEEL REMOVAL AND ASSEMBLY
CONNECTING PULLEYS
RAIL INCLINE
The crosspins in the center channel of the tower are for the Leg Pulley System accessory
and for connecting the center pulley to accomplish dead weight pulls. Connecting the
center pulley here will double the resistance compared to when the center pulley is
connected to the glideboard.
Note: Only connect the center pulley to tower crosspins at the same level or below the
arm pulleys.
If you connect the center pulley to the center channel at a level beneath the rails, use
caution to prevent cables from rubbing against the rails. To help prevent cables rubbing
against rails, move the pulleys to the inside high position on the LAT bars.
Connecting Pulleys to Tower Crosspins in Center Channel
If the cable length is too long for you to achieve full range of motion for your exercise, you
can connect the center pulley to a lower crosspin further down the tower.
WARNING:
Never connect the center pulley above the arm pulleys on the
Total Gym GTS
®
or Total Gym Sport

as the force may cause the
rails to be pulled up out of engagement from the tower.

The adjustable glideboard is designed to remain parallel to the ground when the rails are
at an incline. This helps to facilitate proper alignment of the spine in rotational exercises
among other things.
1. To raise the glideboard, lift the end near the rail base until it engages at the
desired angle.
2. To lower the glideboard, slightly lift the end near the rail base then press UP
or rotate either of the side handles. Continue to press or rotate the handles as you
lower the glideboard to the desired angle.

When Lowering
Changing the Adjustable Glideboard
1. Fold the Total Gym
®
and stand it up vertically.
2. Remove the squat stand.
3. Carefully lift the glideboard completely off the lower rails. Note: The glideboard
may be too heavy to remove and install with one person. If necessary, get help.
4. Lay it upside down on a clean flat surface.
5. To remove the wheels: Use two 13 mm socket or combination wrenches to hold
the bolt from the outside of the axle while turning the nut with the other wrench on
the other end.
6. Tighten snugly, just enough so that the wheel can only roll but not slide
lengthwise on the axle. Do not over tighten.
7. When finished cleaning, inspecting or servicing, position the glideboard above
the lower rails so the wheels slide down the inside of the rail.
8. Carefully lower the glideboard down the rails until it stops at the rail base.
9. Ensure the top wheels are aligned and ready to unfold the rails.
Caution! Hold the lift handles against the glideboard on the adjustable glideboard so it
will not open during this procedure.
