STEP 5 (See Diagram 5 & Cable Loop Diagram)

A.) Attach one end of the 119” Butterfly Cable (#41) to the hook on the Right Butterfly (#11).
B.) Draw the Cable to the right open bracket on the back of Upper Vertical Frame (#15).

Floating Pulley Bracket (#14). Install a Pulley. Let the Bracket hanging for now.

E.) Pull the Cable around the Pulley then upward to the left open bracket on the back of Upper

Vertical Frame. Install a Pulley.

F.) Draw the Cable to the Left Butterfly (#10). Attach the end to the hook on the Left Butterfly.

15

STEP 6 (See Diagram 6 & Cable Loop Diagram)
A.) Attach the 130” Lower Cable (#39) to the opening on the bottom of the Leg

Developer (#7).

B.) Attach a Pulley (#49) to the opening. Secure it with one M10 x 2 ½” Allen Bolt (#77),

two Pulley Bushings (#33), and one M10 Aircraft Nut (#90).

C.) Draw the Cable underneath the Pulley through the opening on the Lower Vertical

Frame (#4) to the open bracket on the back.

D.) Attach a Pulley to the open bracket. Secure it with one M10 x 1 ¾” Allen Bolt (#75),

two Ø ¾” Washers (#86), and one M10 Aircraft Nut (#90).

E.) Pull the Cable upward to the Crossed Double Floating Pulley Bracket (#14)

previously installed in Step-5. Install another Pulley.

F.) Draw the Cable over the Pulley then downward to the open bracket on the Main Base

Frame. Install a Pulley.

G.) Pull the Cable around the Pulley then upward to the Double Floating Pulley Brackets

(#43) previously installed in Step-4. Install a Pulley.

H.) Draw the Cable around the Pulley then pull downward to the triangle bracket on the

back of the Lower Vertical Frame (#4). Secure the Cable to the bracket with one M10
x 1” Allen Bolt (#81), two Ø ¾” Washers (#86), and one M10 Aircraft Nut (#90).

I.) Adjust the tension of the Cable by adjusting the Pulley position on the Double

Floating Pulley Bracket (#43). If the cables are too loose, move up the Pulley. If the
cables are too tight, move down the Pulley.

J.) For best performance of the machine, adjust the Cables so the Selector Stem (Top

Plate) on the weight stack is ¼” above the first plate. While pinning the weight stack,
push down on the Selector Stem to close up the gap then pin the plates. This will
remove the slag in the cable system so the range of motion is smooth and tight.

K.) Connect the Shiver Bar (#24) to a Long Chain (#63) with a C-clip (#70). Connect the

Long Chain to the Lower Cable with another C-clip.
