2. GENERAL SPECIFICATIONS
1. Frame Construction
• Frame is constructed of mechanical quality steel purchased in mill run quantities
• Frame is primarily 4” x 2” (10 cm x 5 cm) and 3” x 2” (8 cm x 5 cm) rectangular-shaped
tubing with 11 gauge wall thickness.
• Frames are mostly fully welded and constructed in two, but not mores than 3 pieces to
facilitate movement through smaller doorways and difficult installations
2. Frame Finish
• Prior to applying finish, each part is chemically washed to prepare surface for maximum
adhesion.
• The frames are coated with an electrostatic epoxy powder coat finish applied in a powder
form and then baked at 400° F (204° C.)
• To prevent frame and surface corrosion, wax equipment annually and keep away from salt,
chlorine and all other harmful chemicals.
3. Weight Selection
• Weights are selected by using a 7/16” selector pin, which completely penetrates the weight
plate and is held in place during use by a magnetic ring to keep the pin from disengaging
during use.
• The selector pin is connected to the top weight to eliminate loss or substitution of
substandard pins.
4. Incremental Weight System
• Incremental weight system allows the resistance to be increased in 5 pound increments and
are contained on the guide rods to eliminate removal.
• When in use, the increment weights retain the balance of the stack resulting in a smoother
action of the weight stack as compared to systems which load the increment on the side or
back of the actual stack.
5. Weight Plates
• Machined from solid, 1” thick steel. Finish is wrinkle gray powder coat. Thickness of plate is
held to precise tolerances by machining the entire upper and lower surfaces resulting in a
better pin fit to the stem.
6. Weight Plate Bushings
• Each plate (not just the top weight) will contain low friction bushings, which surround the
guide rods to minimize friction and noise
7. Top Weight Bushings
• The top weight runs on bushings which are mounted in the plate with rubber gromments to
compensate for minor misalignment and insure optimal performance.
• The bushings are self-lubricating in order that the guide rods will not require lubrication.

catching a person’s finger or clothes.
16. Cams
• All cams are individually designed for each unit to match the appropriate muscle strength
capability curve.
17. Counter Balanced Input Arms
• Input arms on equipment are counter balanced where appropriate to eliminate the weight of
the assembly from the weight selected by the user.
18. Pivot Bearings
• Bearings are sealed with a basic radial load rating of over 2,000 pounds (909 kg.)
• Bearings are mounted within ductile cast iron, precision-machined housings for optimal
alignment, resulting in smooth and friction free movement.
19. Rollers
• Internal seat carriage adjustment rollers are made of molded polymer mounted on machined
steel axles for smooth, durable operation.

machines. The foam is injection molded directly to the multi-ply wood support board with
integral 10mm T-nuts.
24. Hand Grips
• Handgrips are an extruded 60-durometer-thermorubber compound that is non-absorbing,
wear and tear resistant and exhibits good dry and wet frictional characteristics.
• The grips are retained with aluminum collars.
25. Seat Adjustments
• Numeric seat and pad adjustments (where appropriate) correctly align body to machine for
proper posture, muscle isolation and body stabilization.
• Seats move on rollers to eliminate any sliding frictions and improve ease of use on seat
adjustment mechanism.
• Seats adjust in ½” increments.
26. Foot Platforms
• Foot platforms are Linex™ covered ensuring slip resistance and long lasting protection
against wear
27. Instructional Placard
• Visual placards provide step by step instructions as well as pictures to illustrate proper use

3. Exercise Section LIFE FITNESS PRO 2 SERIES OWNERS MANUAL
PRO 2 CHEST PRESS (PSCP)
Muscles Exercised – Pectoralis Major, Anterior Deltoid and Triceps
Setup
Adjust the seat height so handles are aligned with mid-chest. Using the start
adjuster knob located on the right side of the pressing arm, adjust to the desired
range of motion. Check the weight stack to ensure appropriate resistance. Grip
the handles and position elbows slightly below shoulders. Body is positioned
with chest-up, shoulders and head back against back pad.
Performing the Exercise
With a controlled motion, extend the handles out till arms are fully extended.
Return the handles to the start position, without letting the resistance rest on the
stack. Repeat the motion, while maintaining proper body positioning.
TIP: While performing the exercise, think about drawing the elbows toward each
other as opposed to pressing on the exercise arm. This will increase the mental
concentration on the Pectoralis Major.

3. Exercise Section LIFE FITNESS PRO 2 SERIES OWNERS MANUAL
PRO 2 SHOULDER PRESS (PSSP)
Muscles Exercised – Deltoids and Triceps
Setup
Adjust the seat height so handles are aligned with or above shoulder height.
Check the weight stack to ensure appropriate resistance. Grip either set of
handles. Body is positioned with chest-up, shoulders and head back against
back pad.
NOTE: The neutral handles are ideal for persons with limited shoulder flexibility
or orthopedic limitations.
Performing the Exercise
With a controlled motion, extend the handles up till arms are fully extended.
Return the handles to the start position, without letting the resistance rest on
the stack. Repeat the motion, while maintaining proper body positioning.
TIP: Focus on extending your elbows as opposed to pressing the arm up, as
this increases the mental concentration on the Deltoid muscles.

3. Exercise Section LIFE FITNESS PRO 2 SERIES OWNERS MANUAL
PRO 2 LAT PULLDOWN (PSPD)
Muscles Exercised – Latissimus Dorsi and Biceps
Setup:
Sit and adjust the thigh pads to secure the legs in position. Check the weight stack
to ensure appropriate resistance. Stand and grip bar in desired position, then pull
down and sit with thighs under pads. Body is positioned leaning back slightly from
the hips with chest-up.
TIP: Attempt to stabilize the body without the use of the thigh pads until necessary.
TIP: The ideal grip position on the bar positions the hands as far out as possible,
but still allows the elbows to contact the sides of the body in the down position
during the exercise. This ensures a full range of motion.
Performing the Exercise:
With a controlled motion, draw down the bar in front of the chest till it nearly makes
contact with the chest, then extend the handles out till arms are fully extended.
Return the handles to the start position and repeat the motion, while maintaining
proper body positioning.
TIP: While performing the exercise think about lifting the chest to the bar as
opposed to pulling the bar down. This will re-enforce the correct exercise position
and increases the mental concentration on the Latissimus Dorsi.
