Make sure that 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 to clean the weight system.
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. To tighten the cables, first insert the
weight pin into the middle of the weight stack. Slack can be removed from these cables several ways:
Remove the M10 Locknut (70) and the M10 x 40mm
Bolt (71) from the Small Pulley (40) near the lower
end of the Pulley Plate (41). Reattach the Small
Pulley and the Cable Trap to the hole closer to the
center of the Pulley Plate. Make sure that the Low
Cable (74) and the Small Pulley move smoothly.
If necessary, adjust the position of the Small Pulley
(40) near the upper end of the Pulley Plate (41) in the
same way.

Do not overtighten the cables. If the cables are overtightened, the top weight will be lifted off the weight
stack. If a cable tends to slip off the pulleys often, it may have become twisted. Remove the cable and
reinstall it. If the cables need to be replaced, see ORDERING REPLACEMENT PARTS on the back cover of
this manual.
