ADJUSTMENTS This section explains how to adjust the weight system. See the EXERCISE GUIDELINES on page 21 for important information about how to get the most benefit from your exercise program. Also, refer to the accompanying exercise guide to see the correct form for each exercise. Make sure all parts are properly tightened each time the weight system is used. Replace any worn parts immediately. The weight system can be cleaned with a damp cloth and a mild, non-abrasive detergent. Do not use solvents.

WEIGHT RESISTANCE CHART The chart below shows the approximate weight resistance at each exercise station. “Top” refers to the 6 lb. top weight. The other numbers refer to the 12.5 lb. weight plates. Weight resistance shown for the butterfly arm station is for each arm. Note: The actual resistance at each station may vary due to differences in individual weight plates as well as friction between the cables, pulleys, and weight guides. HIGH PULLEY (lbs.) BUTTERFLY ARM (lbs.) PRESS ARM (lbs.
CABLE DIAGRAMS The cable diagrams below show the proper routing of the Low Cable (53), the Arm Cable (54), and the High Cable (55). Use the diagrams to make sure that the cables, cable traps, and finger guards have been assembled correctly. If the cables have not been correctly routed, the weight system will not function properly and damage may occur. The numbers show the correct route for each cable. Make sure that the cable traps do not touch or bind the cables. 4 High Cable (55) Length: 114 in.
MAINTENANCE Make sure all parts are properly tightened each time the weight system is used. Replace any worn parts immediately. The weight system can be cleaned with a damp cloth and a mild, non-abrasive detergent. Do not use solvents. TIGHTENING THE CABLES Woven cable, the type of cable used on the weight 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.
EXERCISE GUIDELINES THE FOUR BASIC TYPES OF WORKOUTS Muscle Building To increase the size and strength of your muscles, push them close to their maximum capacity. Your muscles will continually adapt and grow as you progressively increase the intensity of your exercise. You can adjust the intensity level of an individual exercise in two ways: • by changing the amount of resistance used • by changing the number of repetitions or sets performed.
Rest for a short period of time after each set. The ideal resting periods are: • Rest for three minutes after each set for a muscle building workout. • Rest for one minute after each set for a toning workout. • Rest for 30 seconds after each set for a weight loss workout. Plan to spend the first couple of weeks familiarizing yourself with the equipment and learning the proper form for each exercise. slowly as you stretch and do not bounce.
