CABLE GUARDS
Periodically check the alignment of the cable guards to
ensure that they are not dragging on the cable and
t
hat they are performing their intended function. If the
cable guards are not aligned correctly, loosen the bolts
s
lightly and adjust the cable guards as necessary.
SERVICING THE WEIGHT STACK
For required parts, see HOW TO CONTACT CUSTOMER CARE on the back cover of this manual.
1. Remove the access cover by pulling it free at the
bottom and then sliding it up until the two sets of
tabs release.
2. Loosen the top bolt or nuts on each guide rod.
Remove the bolts or nuts and let the guide rods
slide down to the floor.
3. To remove the top weight, first unbolt the pulley(s) to release the cable using a 5/16" hex
wrench and a 9/16" open-end wrench.
4. Slide the top weight off the top of the guide rods.
Note: Pull the guide rods toward the back of the
machine for increased clearance.
5
. Servicing the weight stack involves replacing the
three bushings in the top weight. First, use a
punch to drive the three existing bushings out of
the top weight.
6. To insert the new bushings, hold each bushing
square to the face of one of the holes in the top
weight, place a protective piece of wood on top
of the bushing, and lightly tap the bushing into
place. The bushings should be flush with the surface. Note: There are two sizes of bushings. The
slightly larger bushing is for the single hole in the
top weight; the smaller bushings are for the top
and bottom of the cylindrical standoff.
7. Clean and lubricate the guide rods by wiping
them using a soft cloth containing automotive
engine oil. Apply only a light coating over the
entire length.
8. Replace the top weight on the guide rods. Bolt
the pulley, cable, and cable guards back into
place.
9. Reattach the guide rods to the top of the frame.
10. Insert the weight pin into the top weight. Pull the
handle, lifting the top weight all of the way to the
top. Slowly return the handle to the resting position. If the top weight sticks, loosen one of the
guide rod bolts or nuts. Lift the top weight to the
top again. Retighten the guide rod bolt or nuts.
Check the full travel again and readjust the
guide rods if necessary.
11. While slowly pulling the handle, have someone
check the top weight pulley guard to ensure that
it is not dragging or rubbing on the cable.
12. Replace the access cover.

MAINTENANCE
For safe and trouble-free operation of your FreeMotion Fitness®strength equipment, it is important to perform
routine prev entative ma intenance on a regular basis. Make sure that all parts are properly tightened each time
the strength machine is used. Replace any worn parts immediately. The strength machine can be cleaned with a
damp cloth and a mild, non-abrasive detergent. Do not use solvents.
Note: Instruct all personnel to perform equipment inspection and maintenance requirements. Personnel must
record and report any accident. For any questions or concerns, see HOW TO CONTACT CUSTOMER CARE
on the back cover of this manual.
Use only original FreeMotion Fitness parts for repair or replacement to maintain your machine’s warranty.
FreeMotion Fitness recommends the following procedures:
SCHEDULED MAINTENANCE
DAILY
1. Upholstery—General cleaning:
• Wipe using a soft cloth dampened with a light
solution of household dish detergent and warm
water.
• If necessary, use a soft bristle brush with the
cleaning solution.
• Always remove the cleaning solution using a
cloth dampened with clean water. Rinse often.
2. Upholstery—Difficult stains:
• Spray the stain with a non-abrasive household
cleaner such as FORMULA 409®cleaner or a
similar product.
• Rub the area gently and let it sit for a few minutes.
• Rinse thoroughly using a clean, water-dampened cloth.
• Repeat if necessary using a soft bristle brush.
Optional method for difficult stains:
• Rub the area gently using a soft cloth dampened with rubbing alcohol.
• Rinse thoroughly using a water-dampened cloth
to remove alcohol residue.
CAUTION: When using any cleaning product, try
it first in an inconspicuous place to ensure there
is no damage to the material. Follow directions
and adhere to the safety precautions of the manu
facturer of each cleaning agent used. FreeMotion
Fitness and its vendors cannot be held liable for
damage or injuries resulting from the use or mis
-
use of cleaning products.
3. Towers and Frames:
• Wipe with a light solution of mild soap and warm
water. Rinse and dry thoroughly.
Important: Do not use abrasive cleaners,
because they may scratch the equipment. Strong
cleansers and abrasives will damage decals. Use
caution around decals. Do not use solvents such
as lacquer thinner, kerosene, gasoline, or similar
liquids.
4. Stainless Steel Covers:
• Wipe with a light solution of mild soap and warm
water. Rinse and dry thoroughly.
• If desired, or to remove corrosion, use available
commercial stainless steel polishing compounds. Follow manufacturers’ instructions.
5.
Handles:
• Check all handle straps for wear.
• Visually check each strap along the full length
for signs of wear such as cuts, tears, or nicks.
Replace the strap immediately if necessary.
• A “fuzz” will appear on straps over time and is
not a concern unless it appears to be worn
through strands of the weave.
6.
Straps with Rings:
•
If a ring is pulling through a strap or tearing
away at the edge of the strap, replace the strap
immediately
.
•
Check stitching points on straps for tears, worn
spots, or separation. Replace the strap if necessary.

WEEKLY
1. Hardware:
• Check all nuts and bolts. Tighten them as
required.
2. Cables:
• Check all cables for proper tension.
• Check the entire length of each cable by pulling
each handle individually to its fully extended
position and inspecting the cable that is
exposed on the exterior of the machine, as well
as the cable inside of the tower.
• Run your fingers along each cable, paying close
attention to the bends and attachment points.
• Watch for the following conditions that may indicate a worn cable in need of replacement (see
the drawings below):
A.Torn or split cable sheath that exposes the
cable
B. Kinked or severely bent cable
C.Curled or twisted sheath
D.Stretched cable sheath, showing a thinning
cross-section
MONTHLY OR AS REQUIRED
1. Grips:
• Check all grips and replace them as needed.
2. Weight stack guide rods:
• Clean and lubricate the full length by wiping
using a soft cloth containing automotive engine
oil. Only a light coating over the entire length is
needed.
CUSHION ATTACHMENT
Important: All FreeMotion Fitness®cushions are fabri-
c
ated using dense plywood with tee-nuts installed for
bolting to the machine framework. Because these teenuts are held by the plywood, they will not withstand
the torque that standard nuts and bolts will. Therefore,
w
hen tightening the cushion bolts, turn them only until
they are snug and the cushion does not move or feel
loose. Overtightening may strip the tee-nuts from the
plywood and make it impossible to remove the cushion
in the future.
CABLE TENSION CHECK
1. Insert the weight pin into the top weight plate.
2.
Slowly raise and lower the top weight by normal
machine use. The top weight should come to rest
just on top of the second weight when the handle
is returned to the resting position.
• If there is too much tension on the cable, the top
weight will not rest on the second weight, and it
may be difficult to insert the weight pin into the
weight plates.
• If there is not enough tension on the cable, the
top weight will not be lifted immediately when
one of the handles is pulled. Ideally, the handle/cable should not move more than 1.3 cm
(1/2 in.) from the resting position before the top
weight begins to be lifted.
3. If there is too much or not enough tension on the
cable, adjust the cable as described in CABLE
ADJUSTMENTS, on page 9.

CAUTION: After making any cable adjustment, pull the
handle using a light load and have someone make
sure that the cable is not derailed from a pulley or rubbing on a guard (see CABLE GUARDS on page 10).
INITIAL ADJUSTMENT
Top Weight Pulley Adjustment—All machines.
Tools required: 9/16" open or box-end wrench, 5/16"
Allen wrench
Note: This is the primary adjustment for all
machines. If this adjustment does not remove the
excess slack, refer to ADDITIONAL ADJUSTMENTS, at the right.
1. Remove the access cover by pulling it free at the
bottom and then sliding it up until the two sets of
tabs release.
2. Using a 5/16" Allen wrench and a 9/16" open or
box-end wrench, loosen the nut holding the pulley
in the bracket on the top weight.
3. T
o increase the tension, slide the pulley down in
the slot. To decrease the tension, slide the pulley
up.
4.
T
ighten the nut and check the tension as
described in CABLE TENSION CHECK, on page
8. If necessary, readjust the pulley.
5.
Replace the access cover
.
ADDITIONAL ADJUSTMENTS
Handle End Adjustment—All machines with a
strap and handle
Tools required: 1/8" Allen wrench, cable cutters, utility knife, torque wrench
Note: Make this adjustment only if the pulley in the
top weight has been fully adjusted to the bottom of
the slot and the cable requires more tension.
Note: This adjustment is only for increasing the
cable tension because it requires shortening the
cable. Only one end of the cable should be shortened.
1. Create slack in the cable by removing the weight
pin and pulling the handle out 15–20 cm (6–8 in.).
Insert the weight pin into the third weight plate
and the tube on the bottom of the top weight.
2. Push the black rubber cover off the aluminum
coupler and slide the cover up the cable to contact the pulley in the swivel arm.
3. Loosen the four oval-point, 1/4-20-unc set screws
in the coupler and pull the cable free.
4. Cut off 2.5 cm (1 in.) of the cable end using cable
cutters.
Note: Using any other tool may flatten
or disrupt the end strands so that it may be
difficult to reinsert the cable into the hole of
the coupler.
5. Cut off 2.5 cm (1 in.) of the black cable sheath
from the end of the cable.
6. Reinsert the cable and the sheath into the coupler
so that all of the bare cable is in the hole.
7. Retighten the four set screws into the threaded
holes. Tighten the set screws equally until they
contact the cable. Then, tighten each screw alternately 1/4 turn, until all are set to 85 inch-pounds
(9.6 Newton-meters).
8. Slide the rubber cover over the coupler, remove
the weight pin, and lower the handle.
9.
Check for proper tension on the cable as described
in
CABLE
TENSION CHECK
, on page 8.
