STEP 23:

• If upon completion of assembly, the HEAD PLATE (AF) does not sit on top of the first WEIGHT PLATE, push the
HEAD PLA TE (AF) down, insert the WEIGHT SELECT OR PIN and perform several repetitions at the press station.
This will relax the cable system and prevent the HEAD PLATE (AF) from lifting up. See FIGURE 23.

• If after completing previous step, the HEAD PLATE (AF) still does not sit on top of the first WEIGHT PLATE or if
there is excess slack in the cable system, adjust the threaded end of the LAT CABLE (AM) and ADJUSTABLE GLIDE
accordingly and retighten the jam nuts. See figure 23.

• For maximum performance, the HEAD PLA TE (AF) should just barely sit on the top WEIGHT PLA TE

• Attach the LAT BAR (AG) to the ball end of LA T CABLE (AM) using one SNAP LINK (22) as shown in FIGURE 23.

• Attach the ANKLE STRAP (AL) to the 12 LINK CHAIN (21) using one SNAP LINK (22) as shown in FIGURE 23
