ART IDENTIFICATION CHART

in the center of this manual. Place the chart on the floor and use it to easily identify parts during each assembly step. Note: Some small parts may have

been pre-attached. If a part is not in the parts bag, check to see if it has been pre-attached.

How to Orient Parts

Questions?

If you have questions after reading the assembly instructions, please call our Customer Service Department at 1-800-999-3756.

Assembly Requires Two Persons

For your convenience and safety, assemble the weight system with the help of another person.

Set Aside Enough Time

Due to the many features of the weight system, the assembly process will require several hours. By setting aside plenty of time and by deciding to make the task enjoyable, assembly will go smoothly. You may want to assemble the weight system over a couple of evenings.

Select a Location for the Weight System

Because of its weight and size, the weight system should be assembled in the location where it will be used. Make sure that there is enough room to walk around the weight system as you assemble it.

How to Unpack the Box

To make assembly as easy as possible, we have divided the assembly process into four stages. The parts needed for each stage are found in individual bags. Important: Wait until you begin each stage to open the parts bag for that stage. Place all parts of the weight system in a cleared area and remove the packing materials. Do not dispose of the packing materials until assembly is completed.

Make Assembly Easier for Yourself

ning assembly, make sure to read the information on this page. This brief introduction will save you much more time than it takes to read it.
