TEP 22:
• Make adjustments to the cables’ tension at the locations shown in Figure 22.
• Adjust the Turnbuckle on each GUARD CABLE (65) to change the tension of the GUIDE CABLES
(65).
• If by the time the Gym is assembled, the HEAD PLATE (23) does not sit on top of the first
WEIGHT PLATE (21), push the HEAD PLATE (23) down, insert the WEIGHT STACK PIN (27)
and perform several repetitions. This will relax the cable system and prevent the HEAD PLATE
(23) from lifting up.
• If after completing the previous step, the HEAD PLATE (23) still does not sit on top of the first
WEIGHT PLATE (21) or if there is excess slack in the cable system, adjust the threaded ends of
the Cables attached to the PULLEY BRACKETS (42) accordingly and retighten the jam nuts.
• For maximum performance, the HEAD PLATE (23) should just barely sit on the Weight Plate (21).
• After making adjustments, make sure all jam nuts are securely tightened.
