This section explains how to adjust the weight system. See the EXERCISE GUIDELINES on page 18 for impor-
tant 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.
M
ake sure all parts are properly tightened each time the weight system is used. Replace any worn parts immediate-
ly. The weight system can be cleaned with a damp cloth and a mild, non-abrasive detergent. Do not use solvents.
ATTACHING THE ACCESSORIES TO A PULLEY
STATION
Attach the Lat Bar (42) to the High Cable (45) with a
Cable Clip (52). For some exercises, the Chain (not
shown) should be attached between the Lat Bar and
the High Cable with two Cable Clips. Adjust the
length of the Chain between the Lat Bar and the
High Cable so that the Lat Bar is in the correct
starting position for the exercise to be performed.
The Handle (not shown) can be attached in the same
manner. The accessories can be attached to the Low
Cable (not shown) in the same manner.

CHANGING THE WEIGHT SETTING
To change the weight setting of the weight stack,
insert the Weight Pin (13) under the desired Weight
(7). Make sure to insert the Weight Pin until the bent
end of the Weight Pin is touching the Weights, and
turn the bent end downward. The weight setting of the
weight stack can be changed from 6 pounds to 118.5
pounds, in increments of 12.5 pounds.
Note: Due to
the cables and pulleys, the actual amount of
resistance at each exercise station may vary from
the weight setting. Use the WEIGHT RESISTANCE
CHART on page 16 to find the actual amount of
resistance at each weight station.
