IMPORTANT PRECAUTIONS WARNING: To reduce the risk of serious injury, read the following important precautions before using the resistance system. 1. Read all instructions in this manual before using the resistance system. Use the resistance system only as described in this manual. on the high cables only while sitting on the bench, with the seat in one of the three positions closest to the upright base, or while standing on the base plate. 2.
BEFORE YOU BEGIN Thank you for selecting the innovative WEIDER® PLATINUM XP600 resistance system. The resistance system offers a selection of stations designed to develop every major muscle group of the body. Whether your goal is to tone your body, build dramatic muscle size and strength, or improve your cardiovascular system, the resistance system will help you to achieve the specific results you want.
ASSEMBLY • Tighten all parts as you assemble them, unless instructed to do otherwise. Make Things Easier for Yourself This manual is designed to ensure that the resistance system can be assembled successfully by most people. However, it is important to realize that the versatile resistance system has many parts and that the assembly process will take time. Most people find that by setting aside plenty of time, assembly will go smoothly.
2. Attach the Upright (3) to the Base (1) with two 3/8” x 2 3/4” Carriage Bolts (88), two 3/8” x 3” Bolts (87), and four 3/8” Nylon Locknuts (73) as shown.

IF THE CONNECTOR IS NOT INSERTED PROPERLY, THE CONSOLE MAY BE DAMAGED WHEN THE POWER IS TURNED ON.
6. Grease a 3/8” x 4” Bolt (86) using the included grease pack. Attach the Bench Rail (23) to the Upright (3) with the Bolt and a 3/8” Nylon Jamnut (92). Make sure the Bolt is inserted through the indicated hole in the Bench Rail. Do not overtighten the Jamnut; the Bench Rail must be able to pivot easily. 6 3 26 73 Tighten the Storage Knob (26) into the Upright (3) and the Bench Rail (23). Hole 86 23 Grease 7. Grease a 3/8” x 2 3/4” Bolt (93).
9. Attach the Lat Tower (5) to the Upright (3) with four 3/8” x 1” Screws (100) and four 3/8” Lock Washers (74). 9 Plug the Upper Wire Harness (13) into the Console (53). Push all of the excess wire into the Upright (3). Make sure the wire does not get pinched. Attach the Console to the Upright with two #8 x 1/2” Screws (82). 5 74 100 82 13 100 53 3 82 10. Attach two Eyebolts (51) to the Lat Tower Crossbar (49) with two 5/16” Washers (76) and two 5/16” Nylon Locknuts (107).
12. Pull the upper cable (B), which is attached inside of the Mech Assembly (6), up between the Upright (3) and the Pulley Plate (18). 12 B 54 Attach another Large Pulley (17) between the Upright (3) and Pulley Plate (18) with an M12 x 62mm Button Bolt (80) and an M12 Nylon Locknut (72). Make sure that the upper cable (B) is between the two Pulleys. 85 72 80 17 18 Hold the 1 1/2” Spacer (54) inside of the loop of the upper cable (B), and between the Upright (3) and the Pulley Plate (18).
16. Hold a Large Pulley (17) inside of the upper cable (B). Attach the Pulley to a Pulley Bracket (10) with an M12 x 58mm Button Bolt (81) and an M12 Nylon Locknut (72). Make sure that the cable is routed as shown in the CABLE DIAGRAM on page 18. 16 10 72 B Screw two 3/8” x 1 1/2” Tension Screws (106) into the two Pulley Brackets (10) a couple of turns. Make sure the hexagonal holes in the Screws are on the outside of the Brackets. Tighten the two Screws an equal number of turns. 106 81 17 17 17.
20. Attach a 3 1/2” Pulley (89) inside of the hole in the Front Leg (31) with a 3/8” x 3 1/2” Bolt (90), two 1” Spacers (35), two 3/8” SAE Washers (75), and a 3/8” Nylon Jamnut (92). Make sure the Pulley is above the Leg Lever Cable (62). 20 90 75 35 23 Slide the two free ends of the Leg Lever Cable (62) onto the hook welded to the bottom of the Bench Rail (23). 62 89 75 31 35 92 21. Slide two Foam Pads (28) onto the tube on the Front Leg (31).
UPPER CABLE ADJUSTMENT After completing the assembly of the resistance system, the tension on the upper cable (B) will need to be adjusted. Also, the upper cable can stretch slightly when it is first used. When this occurs, the upper cable tension will need to be readjusted. Follow the steps below to adjust the upper cable tension. 1. Connect the two Tension Gauges (109, 110) using the magnet. 1 109 Magnet 110 2. Plug in the resistance system as described in PLUGGING IN THE RESISTANCE SYSTEM on page 17.
ADJUSTMENTS This section explains how to adjust the resistance system. See the EXERCISE GUIDELINES on page 20 for important information about how to get the most benefit from your exercise program. Also, see the accompanying exercise guide to see the correct form for each exercise. Make sure all parts are properly tightened each time the resistance system is used. Replace worn parts immediately. The resistance system can be cleaned with a damp cloth and a mild, non-abrasive detergent. Do not use solvents.
ATTACHING THE ACCESSORIES To attach a Short Handle (67) to a high pulley, first attach the high pulley to the resistance system (see ATTACHING THE HIGH PULLEYS on page 15). Then, attach the Short Handle to the Short Cable (60) with a Cable Clip (64). 60 The Long Handles (not shown) and the Ankle Strap (not shown) can be attached to the long cable (not shown) with Cable Clips (64).
ADJUSTING THE BACKREST Rod The Backrest (40) can be used in a level position or one of three inclined positions. To use the Backrest in a level position, secure the Seat Carriage (48) to the adjustment hole in the Bench Rail (23) next to the Front Leg (31) (see ADJUSTING THE SEAT on page 15). 41 3 36 Slot 48 To use the Backrest (40) in an inclined position, secure the Seat Carriage (48) to one of the other three adjustment holes in the Bench Rail (23). Rest the Backrest against the Upright (3).
CABLE DIAGRAM The cable diagram shows the proper routing of the upper cable (B). Use the diagram to make sure that the cable has been assembled correctly. If the cable has not been correctly routed, the resistance system will not function properly and damage may occur. The numbers show the correct route for the cable. Make sure that the ends of the cable do not wrap around each other between positions 1 and 2, and 6 and 7.
TROUBLESHOOTING CLEANING THE BAR GUIDES Over time, dust may build up on the Bar Guides (55), causing a squeaking noise as the resistance system is used. If this occurs, wipe off the Bar Guides with a damp cloth and a mild, non-abrasive detergent. Do not use solvents. 55 ADJUSTING THE RESISTANCE When the resistance setting changes, the motor will be heard. To prevent damage to the motor, do not pull any of the cables while the resistance setting is changing.
EXERCISE GUIDELINES THE FOUR BASIC TYPES OF WORKOUTS PERSONALIZING YOUR EXERCISE PROGRAM 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.
slowly as you stretch and do not bounce. Ease into each stretch gradually and go only as far as you can without strain. Stretching at the end of each workout is an effective way to increase flexibility. 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.
