Shroud Plate

Step 32: Remove the bolts that connect the top of the Guide Rods to the Main Upright.

NOTE: Before beginning Step 33: If optional 200 lb. heavy weight stack is being assembled, eliminate the
weight stack risers. (This space will be taken up by 5 extra weight plates.)

Step 33: Slide Weight Stack Risers down the Guide Rods and onto the Shroud Plate. Next slide

the Rubber Donuts down the Guide Rods until sitting on Weight Stack Risers. Next slide each

plate down the Guide Rods until all 15 Weight Plates are resting on the Rubber Donuts.
Be sure that all weight plates are facing forward. (Front of plates is signified by recessed area for
weight stack numbers). Next slide Top Weight/Selector Stem down guide rods and onto weight
stack. Finally connect top cable to top weight by threading cable bolt into it.

IMPORTANT!! Cable bolt must be fully threaded into Selector Stem with Jam Nut
tightened securely before using. Failure to do so may cause the cable to come loose from
the weights and cause injury.

Install Fabric Shroud

Top Shroud Plate

Shroud Plate Adjustment Bolts

Bottom Shroud
Plate

Step 36: To install Fabric Shroud, start at the front of the top shroud plate and wrap the edge
of the fabric shroud around the shroud plate. Pull tight as you wrap and make sure that

the velcro rim on the fabric shroud seals firmly to the velcro rim on the Shroud Plate.
Next, Do the same for the bottom of the fabric shroud around the bottom shroud plate.

Be sure to pull tight as fabric shroud is wrapped.
If ripples appear on the fabric shroud, undo the top of the shroud and re-wrap, pulling

up as the shroud is wrapped. This should give a nice smooth consistency to the shroud.

(If necessary, shroud can be tightened by adjusting the Shroud Plate Adjustment Bolts.)

Cable Bolt Jam Nut

Selector Stem

Step 40: Verify that Cable Bolt is threaded at least ½” into Selector Stem. Wrench
tighten Jam Nut.

NOTE: At this point it is necessary to seat the cables. Start by verifying that cables are

centered in the grooves of all pulleys. Next, select a weight you can
comfortably handle on the bench press. Perform a seated bench press and hold
the first repetition at arms length. Now, lightly bounce the weight up and down
for about 5 seconds. This will seat the cables into the pulleys and prepare the
gym for Step 41.

Step 41: Eliminate cable slack by adjusting Press Arm Stop counter clockwise. Wrench
Tighten Jam Nut.

Training Tips

CONSULT A PHYSICIAN BEFORE STARTING ANY EXERCISE PROGRAM

1. Always warm up before you start weight training. This helps get
your muscles warm and prevents injury. You can warm up with light
cardio or by doing a light set of each exercise before going to heavier
weights.

2. Control the weight. Always work with a weight that you can handle
through a full range of motion. Slow and steady movements are
recommended.

3. Breathe. Don’t hold your breath during your set. Holding your
breath builds internal pressure which increases your change for broken
blood vessels, as well as a hernia.

4. Sit up straight. Pay attention to your posture and keep everything
straight. Engage your abs in every movement to keep balanced and
protect your spine.

GENERAL MAINTENANCE INFORMATION

Warning: DO NOT place styrofoam or printed materials on the
orthopedic seat pads. Over time, these may stick to the pads and
mar the surface.

Do not leave items sitting on the orthopedic seat pads, these pads
have a special density that takes shape to objects and small objects
will leave imprints in the surface that may take time to come out.

• Periodically inspect the cables for splitting, cracking or fraying. Also,
watch for bulging or flat areas in the cable.

• Immediately replace cables at the first signs of damage or wear. Never
use equipment with damaged or worn cables.

• Cables naturally stretch over time, so check cable slack periodically and
adjust cable tension as needed.

• Regularly inspect product for loose hardware.

• Do not use or store equipment outdoors.

• Inspect snap links, swivels, handles and weight stack pin for wear or
damage. If wear or damage exists, replace immediately.

• Locate and familiarize yourself with all warning decals on the home gym.

• Replace damaged or worn upholstery immediately.

• Periodically wipe down guide rods with a dry cloth and re-apply a thin coat
of a teflon-based lubricant.
