ASSEMBLY

Make Things Easier for Yourself

ighten all parts as you assemble them, unless

• T
instructed to do otherwise.

Everything in this manual is designed to ensure
that the weight bench can be assembled suc­cessfully by almost anyone. However, the weight
bench has many parts and the assembly
process will take time. By setting aside plenty of
time, assembly will go smoothly.

To hire an authorized service technician to
assemble the weight bench, call toll-free
1-800-445-2480.

Before beginning assembly, carefully read the
following information and instructions:

Because of its weight and size, the weight bench

•

should be assembled in the location where it will
be used. Make sure that there is enough clear­ance to walk around the weight bench as you
assemble it.

• Place all parts in a cleared area and remove the
packing materials. Do not dispose of the packing
materials until assembly is completed.

• As you assemble the weight bench, make sure all
parts are oriented as shown in the drawings.

• Assembly requires two persons.

• For help identifying small parts, use the PART
IDENTIFICATION CHART.

In addition to the included grease, assembly
requires the following tools (not included):

• Two adjustable wrenches

• One rubber mallet

• One standard screwdriver

• One Phillips screwdriver

• Clear tape or masking tape

Assembly may be more convenient if you have a
socket set, a set of open-end or closed-end
wrenches, or a set of ratchet wrenches.

1.

Before beginning assembly, make sure that
you have read and understand the informa­tion in the box above. Refer to the PART
IDENTIFICATION CHART for help identifying
small parts.

Attach the two Stabilizer Plates (7) to the
Stabilizer (1) with four M4 x 15mm Self-tapping
Screws (23).

Insert two M8 x 70mm Carriage Bolts (16) up
through the Stabilizer (1). It may be helpful to

place a piece of tape over the Bolts to hold
them in place.
