IMPORTANT PRECAUTIONS

WARNING: To reduce the risk of serious injury, read the following important precautions before using the weight bench.

1.Read all instructions in this manual before using the weight bench. Use the weight bench only as described in this manual.

2.It is the responsibility of the owner to ensure that all users of the weight bench are adequately informed of all precautions.

3.The weight bench is intended for home use only. Do not use the weight bench in any commercial, rental, or institutional setting.

4.Use the weight bench only on a level surface. Cover the floor beneath the weight bench to protect the floor.

5.Keep children under 12 and pets away from the weight bench at all times.

6.Make sure all parts are properly tightened each time you use the weight bench. Replace any worn parts immediately.

7.Keep hands and feet away from moving parts.

8.Always exercise with a partner. When you are performing bench press exercises, your partner should stand behind you to catch the barbell if you cannot complete a repetition.

9.Always wear athletic shoes for foot protection while exercising.

10.The weight bench is designed to support a maximum user weight of 300 pounds, and a maximum total weight of 610 pounds. Do not use more than 310 pounds of weight, including a barbell and weights, while sitting on the bench. Do not place more than 310 pounds on the weight rests. Do not place more than 150 pounds on the leg lever or weight carriage. Note: The weight bench does not include a barbell or weights.

11.Always keep an equal amount of weight on both ends of your barbell when you are using it. When adding or removing weights, always keep some weight on both ends of the barbell to prevent the barbell from tipping.

12.Always set both weight rests at the same height. Make sure that the adjustment knobs are inserted completely and tightened into the uprights before beginning any exercise.

13.To reduce the risk of the weight rack tipping, place 60 pounds on the storage tube on the rack stabilizer before using the high pulley station or weight rests.

14.If you feel pain or dizziness at any time while exercising, stop immediately and begin cooling down.

WARNING: Before beginning this or any exercise program, consult your physician. This is especially important for persons over the age of 35 or persons with pre-existing health problems. Read all instructions before using. ICON assumes no responsibility for personal injury or property damage sustained by or through the use of this product.

ASSEMBLY

Make Things Easier for Yourself

This manual is designed to ensure that the weight bench can be assembled successfully by anyone. 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.

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

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

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

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

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.

Attach the Stabilizer (2) to the Bench Frame (1) with two M10 x 58mm Carriage Bolts (32) and two M10 Nylon Locknuts (11). Do not tighten the
