ASSEMBLY

Make Things Easier for Yourself

Everything in this manual is designed to ensure
that the exercise rack can be assembled suc­cessfully by anyone. However, it is important to
realize that the versatile exercise rack has many
parts and that the assembly process will take
time. Most people find that by setting aside plen­ty of time, assembly will go smoothly.

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

Assembly requires two people.

•

• Place all parts in a cleared area and remove the

packing materials. Do not dispose of the packing
materials until assembly is completed.

• Tighten all parts as you assemble them, unless
instructed to do otherwise.

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

• For help identifying small parts, use the PART
IDENTIFICA

The included Allen wrenches and the following
tools (not included) are required for assembly:

• Two adjustable wrenches

• One rubber mallet

• One standard screwdriver

• One Phillips screwdriver

• Lubricant, such as grease or petroleum jelly,
and soapy water.

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