ASSEMBLY
Make Things Easier for Yourself
Everything in this manual is designed to ensure
that the weight rack can be assembled successfully by anyone. However, it is important to realize that the versatile weight rack has many parts
and that the assembly process will take time.
Most people find that by setting aside plenty of
time, assembly will go smoothly.
Before beginning assembly, carefully read the
following information and instructions:
Assembly requires two people.
•
• Place all parts in a cleared area and remove the
packing materials. Do not dispose of the packing
materials until assembly is completed.
• Tighten all parts as you assemble them, unless
instructed to do otherwise.
• As you assemble the weight rack, make sure all
parts are oriented as shown in the drawings.
• For help identifying small parts, use the PART
IDENTIFICATION CHART.
The following tools (not included) are required
for assembly:
• Two adjustable wrenches
• One rubber mallet
• One standard screwdriver
• One Phillips screwdriver
• Lubricant, such as grease or petroleum jelly,
and soapy water.
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.

TROUBLESHOOTING AND MAINTENANCE
Make sure all parts are properly tightened each time the weight rack is used. Replace any worn parts immediately.
The weight rack can be cleaned using a damp cloth and mild non-abrasive detergent. Do not use solvents.
TIGHTENING THE CABLES
Woven cable, the type of cable used on the weight rack, can stretch slightly when it is first used. If there is slack
in the cables before resistance is felt, the cables should be tightened. Make sure that the cables are not too
tight, or the weight carriage will be lifted. Slack can be removed in the following ways.
See drawing A. Remove the M10 x 54mm Button Bolt
(73) and the M10 Nylon Locknut (62) attaching the
lower 3 1/2” Pulley (45) and the Short Cable Trap (47)
to the Pulley Plates (20). Use the Bolt and Locknut to
reattach the Pulley and Cable Trap to the next set of
holes closer to the center of the Pulley Plates. Repeat
until the cables are tight.
See drawing B. Remove the M10 x 54mm Button Bolt
(73) and the M10 Nylon Locknut (62) attaching the
3 1/2” Pulley (45) and the Cable Trap (47) to a “U”bracket (19). Use the Bolt and Locknut to reattach the
Pulley and Cable Trap to the other set of holes in the
“U”-bracket.
See drawing B. Tighten the M6 Nylon Locknut (63)
onto the Carriage Cable (56) or the Base Cable (57) a
couple of turns.

See drawing C. Additional slack can be removed
from the cables by tightening a cable into the M6
Nylon Locknut (63) inside a Clip (42). To do this, pull
the Clip Cover (43) back and use a pair of pliers or
screwdriver to tighten the Locknut. Replace the
Cover.
Note: If a cable tends to slip off the pulleys often, the cable may have become twisted. Remove the cable
and re-install it.
If the cables need to be replaced, see ORDERING REPLACEMENT
Replace all cables at least every two years.

EXERCISE GUIDELINES
THE FOUR BASIC TYPES OF WORKOUTS
MUSCLE BUILDING
To increase the size and strength of your muscles,
push them close to their maximum capacity. Your muscles will continually adapt and grow as you progressively increase the intensity of your exercise. You can
adjust the intensity level of an individual exercise in
two ways:
• by changing the amount of resistance used
• by changing the number of repetitions or sets per-
formed. (A “repetition” is one complete cycle of an
exercise, such as one sit-up. A “set” is a series of
repetitions.)
The proper amount of resistance for each exercise
depends upon the individual user. You must gauge
your limits and select the amount of resistance that is
right for you. Begin with 3 sets of 8 repetitions for each
exercise you perform. Rest for 3 minutes after each
set. When you can complete 3 sets of 12 repetitions
without difficulty, increase the amount of resistance.
TONING
You can tone your muscles by pushing them to a moderate percentage of their capacity. Select a moderate
amount of resistance and increase the number of repetitions in each set. Complete as many sets of 15 to
20 repetitions as possible without discomfort. Rest for
1 minute after each set. Work your muscles by completing more sets rather than by using high amounts of
resistance.
WEIGHT LOSS
To lose weight, use a low amount of resistance and
increase the number of repetitions in each set.
Exercise for 20 to 30 minutes, resting for a maximum
of 30 seconds between sets.
CROSS TRAINING
Cross training is an ef
well-balanced fitness program.
anced program is:
• Plan strength training workouts on Monday,
ednesday
W
Plan 20 to 30 minutes of aerobic exercise, such as
•
running on a treadmill or riding on an elliptical or
exercise bike, on
Rest from both strength training and aerobic exercise
•
for at least one full day each week to give your body
time to regenerate.
The combination of strength training and aerobic exer
cise will reshape and strengthen your body, plus develop your heart and lungs.

PERSONALIZING YOUR EXERCISE PROGRAM
Determining the exact length of time for each workout,
as well as the number of repetitions or sets completed,
is an individual matter. It is important to avoid overdoing it during the first few months of your exercise program. You should progress at your own pace and be
sensitive to your body’s signals. If you experience pain
or dizziness at any time while exercising, stop immediately and begin cooling down. Find out what is wrong
before continuing. Remember that adequate rest and a
proper diet are important factors in any exercise program.
WARMING UP
Begin each workout with 5 to 10 minutes of stretching
and light exercise to warm up. Warming up prepares
your body for more strenuous exercise by increasing
circulation, raising your body temperature and delivering more oxygen to your muscles.
WORKING OUT
Each workout should include 6 to 10 different exercises. Select exercises for every major muscle group,
emphasizing areas that you want to develop most. To
give balance and variety to your workouts, vary the
exercises from session to session.
Schedule your workouts for the time of day when your
energy level is the highest. Each workout should be
followed by at least one day of rest. Once you find the
schedule that is right for you, stick with it.
EXERCISE FORM
Maintaining proper form is an essential part of an
fective exercise program.

workout.
Plan to spend the first couple of weeks familiarizing
yourself with the equipment and learning the proper
form for each exercise.
COOLING DOWN
End each workout with 5 to 10 minutes of stretching.
Include stretches for both your arms and legs. Move
slowly as you stretch and do not bounce. Ease into
each stretch gradually and go only as far as you can
without strain. Stretching at the end of each workout
is an effective way to increase flexibility.
STAYING MOTIVATED
For motivation, keep a record of each workout. The
chart on pages 26 and 27 of this manual can be photocopied and used to schedule and record your workouts. List the date, the exercises performed, the resistance used, and the numbers of sets and repetitions
completed. Record your weight and key body measurements at the end of every month. Remember, the
key to achieving the greatest results is to make exercise a regular and enjoyable part of your everyday life.
