Make Assembly Easier for Yourself!
Everything in this manual is designed to
ensure that the home gym can be assembled
successfully by anyone. Before beginning
assembly, make sure to read the informa-
tion on this page; this brief introduction
will save you much more time than it takes
to read it!
Assembly Requires Two Persons
For your convenience and safety, assemble the
home gym with the help of another person.
Make sure you have the following tools:
• Two (2) adjustable wrenches
• One (1) standard screwdriver
• One (1) phillips screwdriver
• One (1) rubber mallet
• You will also need grease or petroleum jelly, a
small amount of soapy water, and clear tape or
masking tape.
Note: 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.
Set Aside Enough Time
Due to the many features of the home gym, the
assembly process will require about six hours. By
setting aside plenty of time and by deciding to
make the task enjoyable, assembly will go smoothly.
You may want to assemble the home gym over a
couple of evenings.
Select a Location for the Home Gym
Because of its weight and size, the home gym
should be assembled in the location where it will be
used. Make sure that there is enough room to walk
around the home gym as you assemble it.
How to Unpack the Box
To make assembly as easy as possible, we have
divided the assembly process into four stages. The
parts needed for each stage are found in individual
bags. Important: Wait until you begin each stage
to open the part bag for that stage. Place all
parts of the home gym in a cleared area and
remove the packing materials. Do not dispose of
the packing materials until assembly is completed.
How to Identify Parts
To help you identify the small parts used in assembly,
we have included a PART IDENTIFICATION CHART
in the center of this manual. Place the chart on the
floor and use it to easily identify parts during each
assembly step. Note: Some small parts may have
been pre-attached. If a part is not in the part bag,
check to see if it has been pre-attached,
How to Orient Parts
As you assemble the home gym, make sure that all
parts are oriented exactly as shown in the drawings.
Tightening Parts
Tighten all parts as you assemble them, unless
instructed to do otherwise.
Questions?
If you have questions after reading the assembly
instructions, please call our Customer Service
Department toll-free at 1-888-825-2588, Monday
through Friday, 6 a.m. until 6 p.m. Mountain Time.
