Basic Assembly Principles
Here are a few basic tips that will make your assembly of the
Bowflex® SelectTech® 3.1 Bench quick and easy. By using these
principles, you can simplify each process and save yourself extra
time and effort.
1. To make the assembly process go faster, gather the pieces
you need for each step and thoroughly read the assembly
instructions for that step prior to starting assembly for the
step.
2. When tightening a locknut on a bolt, use a combination
