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. 11. The crossbar on the top frame is not designed to be used for pull-up exercises. Do not hang on the crossbar. 2.
BEFORE YOU BEGIN Thank you for selecting the innovative WEIDER® PLATINUM 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. Insert the connector of the Upper Wire Harness (71) into the socket of the Lower Wire Harness (143). The connector should slide easily into the socket and snap into place. If the connector does not slide easily and snap into place, turn it over and then insert it. 2 6 12 85 Make sure that the connector and wires appear as shown in the inset drawing. IF THE CONNECTOR IS NOT INSERTED PROPERLY, THE CONSOLE MAY BE DAMAGED WHEN THE POWER IS TURNED ON.

8. Attach a Large Pulley (14) and the Pulley Plate (68) to the Upright (2) with an M12 x 62mm Button Bolt (81) and an M12 Nylon Locknut (13). Do not tighten the Locknut yet. 8 68 13 14 2 81 9. Pull the Upper Cable (121), which is attached inside of the Mech Frame (not shown), up between the Upright (2) and the Pulley Plate (68). 9 Attach another Large Pulley (14) to the Upright (2) and the Pulley Plate (68) with an M12 x 62mm Button Bolt (81) and an M12 Nylon Locknut (13).
11. Insert the Resistance Bar (9) between the Crossbar Guides (15), and center it on the Crossbar Block (not shown). 11 15 70 Press a Pulley Bracket (10) onto the Resistance Bar (9). Screw a 3/8” x 38mm Tension Screw (117) into the Pulley Bracket a couple of turns. Make sure the hexagonal hole in the Screw is on the outside of the Bracket.
15. Slide a Pad Tube (50) into the Leg Lever (56).

UPPER CABLE ADJUSTMENT After completing the assembly of the resistance system, the tension on the Upper Cable (121) 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 (118, 119) together using the magnet. 1 118 Magnet 119 2.
ADJUSTMENTS This section explains how to adjust the resistance system. See the EXERCISE GUIDELINES on page 21 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 the Lat Bar (82) to the high pulleys, first attach the high pulley to the resistance system (see ATTACHING THE HIGH PULLEYS on page 13). Then, attach the Lat Bar to a High Cable (101) with a Cable Clip (94). Attach the Lat Bar to the other High Cable in the same manner. 101 94 101 The Handles (not shown) and the Ankle Strap (not shown) can be attached to the High Cables (101) or the lower cable (not shown) with Cable Clips (94).
ADJUSTING THE SQUAT ARM 27 To adjust the Squat Arm (20), remove the Squat Knob (27) from Squat Carriage (19). Move the Arm to the low or high position, and reengage the Knob into the Squat Carriage. 19 20 ATTACHING THE SQUAT STATION To use the squat station, first remove the backrest (see ADJUSTING THE BACKREST below). Next, adjust the squat arm to the high position (see ADJUSTING THE SQUAT ARM above). Then, insert a Squat Pin (66) into the correct hole in the Upright (2).
ADJUSTING THE SEAT 45 The Seat (45) can be secured at various positions on the Rail (4). To move the Seat, pull the Seat Knob (48) out as far as it will go and slide the Seat to the desired position. Engage the Seat Knob into an adjustment hole in the Rail. 35 4 To perform row exercises, the hip strap must be attached to the mech cable (see ATTACHING THE ACCESSORIES on page 14), and the Seat Carriage (44) must be able to roll along the Rail (4).
CONSOLE OPERATION FEATURES OF THE CONSOLE Console PLUGGING IN THE RESISTANCE SYSTEM Plug the indicated end of the Transformer (72) into the Back Mech Cover (8). Plug the other end of the Transformer into a 8 120-volt outlet. All 72 indicators and displays on the console will flash once; the console will then be ready for use. The motor may be heard while the resistance system calibrates itself. Important: Always plug in the transformer when using the resistance system. MANUAL OPERATION 1.
Note: The resistance system uses progressive resistance. As the resistance bar begins to bend, the amount of resistance will increase gradually. As the bar bends further, the resistance will increase rapidly, up to 340 pounds. 3. Row for five minutes to warm up. When a program is selected, the words CARDIO ROW will appear in the main display. To warm up, perform the cardio row exercise while the main display counts down from 5 minutes. 3.
CABLE DIAGRAM The cable diagram shows the proper routing of the Upper Cable (121). 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 5 and 6.
TROUBLESHOOTING CLEANING THE BAR GUIDES Over time, dust may build up on the Crossbar Guides (15), causing a squeaking noise as the resistance system is used. If this occurs, wipe off the Crossbar Guides with a damp cloth and a mild, non-abrasive detergent. Do not use solvents. 15 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.
