CAUTION!
Before beginning any exercise program, consult your
physician or health care professional. Only he or she can
determine the exercise program that is appropriate for
your particular age and condition. If you experience any
light-headedness, dizziness, or shortness of breath while
exercising, stop the exercise and consult your physician.
For Your Safety
Please Follow These Instructions
Keep your body weight centered on the machine,
seat, or base frame platform while exercising.
When using the Schwinn® ForceTM home gym for
standing leg exercises, always grasp the Lat Tower
on your machine for stability.
Keep out of the path of the Resistance Rods when
exercising and make certain that observers also
stand clear of the Schwinn® ForceTM home gym
when Rods are in use.
Inspect your machine before each workout.
Periodically check all fasteners to make sure none
have loosened with use. Tighten if necessary.
When hooking up Resistance Rods do not stand
directly looking over the top of the rods. Stand off
to the side while attaching rods.
Never attempt to exercise with more resistance than
you are physically able to handle.
Bind cables and Resistance Rods with the rod
binding strap when the Schwinn® ForceTM home
gym is not in use.
Never move or adjust the Seat or Bench while
sitting on it. Never stand on the Seat or Bench.
Before exercising, make sure the Cable Pulley
system is properly secured, properly attached, and
in perfect working condition.

Assembly Guide
Basic Assembly Principles
Here are a few basic tips that will make your assembly of the Schwinn® Force™ home gym quick and easy. By using these
principles, you can simplify each process and save yourself extra time and effort.
1. To make the assembly process go faster, gather the pieces you need for each step and thoroughly read the assembly
instructions for that step prior to starting assembly for the step.
2. When using a ratchet to tighten a locknut on a bolt, use a combination wrench to grip the locknut. This will ensure that the
locknut is fastened securely.
3. When placing a bolt between two separate pieces, you can help the bolt holes to line up by gently lifting one of the pieces.
You can also lift gently and look between the pieces to help guide the bolt through the holes.
4. As a general rule, and for all bolts and nuts on your Schwinn® Force™ home gym, turn bolts or nuts toward the right to
tighten and left to loosen. Or you can remember the mnemonic: “Righty tighty, lefty loosey.”

you can find them at any hardware or department store for a reasonable price.
