Installation Requirements

Follow these installation requirements when assembling the PowerLIFT Gym:

Fill out and mail warranty card.

Provide ample space around the machine. Open space around the machine allows for easier access.

Insert all bolts in the same direction. For aesthetic purposes, insert all bolts in the same direction unless specified (in text or illustrations) to do otherwise.

Leave room for adjustments. Tighten fasteners such as bolts, nuts, and screws so the unit is stable, but leave room for adjustments. Do not fully tighten fasteners until instructed in the assembly steps to do so.

CAUTION: Obtain assistance! Do not attempt to assemble the PowerLIFT Gym by yourself. Review the Installation Requirements before proceeding with the following steps.

The PowerLIFT Gym mainframe unit comes in four boxes. Be careful to assemble components in the sequence presented in this guide.

NOTE: With so many assembled parts, proper alignment and adjustment is critical. While tightening the nuts and bolts, be sure to leave room for adjustments.

Professional installers are highly recommended!

However, if you acquire the appropriate tools, obtain assistance, and follow the assembly steps sequentially, the process will take time, but is fairly easy.

IMPORTANT!

Before you begin you should fold-out pages 61, 62 and 63.

This is a quick reference guide that shows all hardware parts (in actual size) along with the corresponding key numbers on the assembly instructions.

Assembly Tips

Read all “Notes” on each page before beginning each step.

While you may be able to assemble the PowerLIFT Gym using the illustrations only, important safety notes and other tips are included in the text.

Some pieces may have extra holes that you will not use. Use onlythose holes indicated in the instructions and illustrations.

NOTE: To find out the length of a particular bolt, measure its shank (the long, narrow part beneath the head). Refer to the following diagram:

Do not fully tighten bolts until instructed to do so.

Note: After assembly, you should check all functions to ensure correct operation. If you experience problems, first recheck the assembly instructions to locate any possible errors made during assembly. If you are unable to correct the problem, call the dealer from whom you purchased the machine or call 1-800-556-3113 for the dealer nearest you.
