Place of installation

To ensure safe, comfortable and effective use of the equipment, the place of installation must comply with certain specific requirements; in particular, before choosing where to install the equipment we recommend that you check that the following conditions are available:
- a temperature between +10°C and +25°C;
- sufficient ventilation to maintain a humidity level between 20% and 90%, when the equipment is in use;
- sufficient lighting to make the area a safe and relaxing place to exercise;
- sufficient clearance on all sides of the equipment, taking into account its maximum dimensions when in use, to ensure safety;
- a flat, stable and vibration-free floor surface, with sufficient load bearing capacity for the equipment’s weight.
If the equipment is to be installed in a public recreation area, the place of installation must comply with all the requirements of the regulations currently in force.
WARNINGS
The equipment must be installed and used in a place where access and supervision are specifically controlled by the owner.
When installing the equipment, use suitable personal protective equipment.

Fitting the number holder

The number holder must be fixed immediately underneath the top: standing facing the equipment, attach the number holder on the left, on the cover of guide rail (A).
Find the place where the two screws (B) are to be inserted. Attach the number holder using the two screws; the pressure used to tighten the screws is enough to open the holes provided in the cover.
The number holder is optional.

Lifting and moving the equipment

Snap-on castors (optional) must be used to move the equipment.
WARNING
Move the equipment very carefully, because it may become unstable and tip over.
The castors for moving the equipment snap on under the feet of the equipment, after it has been raised, and are held in place by the special straps.
Raise the equipment on the weight stack side, using a pallet truck or fork-lift truck; and for greater safety place a wedge under the frame to keep the equipment raised.
Insert the two fixed castors first on one side and then on the other side of the weight stack: fit castor stems (A) into the holes provided under the equipment feet, then push hard until they snap in.
A
WARNINGS
We recommend placing padded material between the frame and the wedge and between the frame and the machinery used to lift it.
The fixed castors must always be placed underneath the weight stack.

Lifting and moving the equipment
Proceeding in the same way, lift the equipment on seat side and insert the swivel castors.
Lastly, lift the equipment again, remove the safety wedges and place the wheels on the floor.
WARNINGS
When moving the equipment, we recommend pushing it only from the weight stack side, and not from any other side.
When lifting the equipment, do not press against the weight stack guards.
Do not use the equipment with the wheels and castors fitted. The wheels and castors are to be used only for moving the equipment and must be removed before exercising on it.

Lifting and moving the equipment
To facilitate passage through narrow doorways, transport and handling, it is possible to remove the seat:
- operate lever (B) and completely lower the seat (C);
- remove one of the three screws (D) and screw it into the hole behind the tube (E) of the seat;
- remove the other screws (D) and remove the seat (C).
To reassemble the seat, carry out the above steps in reverse order. Keep seat (C) pressed downward while removing screw (D) from behind the tube.

Adjusting the equipment

After the equipment has been positioned on the floor, check that it is level.
An adjuster screw, indicated by two embossed arrows, is supplied for this purpose under foot (A).
Raise the equipment and adjust the screw until the equipment is level.

Routine maintenance

WARNINGS
The safety of the equipment is assured only on the condition that it is carefully inspected every two weeks for any signs of damage and/or wear.
Replace defective and worn components immediately, or alternatively remove the equipment from service.
The equipment should always be kept clean and free of dust, in compliance with good hygiene practice, especially if it is used in a gym or by more than one person. Use a moist cloth or a sponge and mild soap to clean the padded parts. Wipe the outside of the equipment every week using a damp sponge. Do not use chemicals or solvents.
WARNING
Be careful not to rub too hard on the drawings and instructions shown on the labels.
Oiling the weight stack guide rails:
- remove the protective panel covering the weight stack, following the instructions found in the paragraph headed Removing the front weight stack panel;
- use a soft cloth to remove any dust and oil residues from the guide rails;
- slightly moisten the cloth with the oil supplied in the optional Basic Box kit;
- using this cloth, apply a very thin layer of lubricant over the guide rails, taking care not to apply too much;
- refit the protective panel on the weight stack.
Call the Technogym Technical Support Service for instructions on any maintenance operations not described in this manual.

Replacing the padded parts

If any of the padding shows signs of wear, especially in the interests of hygiene, we recommend replacing it completely.
To replace seats and backrests loosen the screws on the opposite side to the padding.
The handgrips are removed by unscrewing them.
In order to replace the elbow pads unscrew the screws (A) and remove the covers (B); then unscrew the screws (C) on the opposite side to the padding.

Replacing the cable

Cables must always be replaced at the first sign of wear, even if only the outer rubber protection is worn.
WARNINGS
Carefully check the state of the cables once a month.
ALWAYS use cables supplied directly by Technogym.
To replace the cable, proceed as follows:
- remove the protective panel covering the weight stack, following the instructions found in the paragraph headed Removing the front weight stack panel;
- unscrew the screws (A) of both cams (B) and remove the cable; as soon as they are released from the cables, the two levers will rise slightly;
A
- insert the new cable and retighten screws (A) on one cam only (follow the original path of the cable as shown in the drawing);
- insert a thickness of approx. 10 mm (1/2 inch) under the first weight in the weight stack;
- bring the two levers into contact with the rubber travel stops (C);
- tighten the cable and tighten screws (A) on the other cam, always keeping the levers in contact with the rubber travel stops;
- remove the 10 mm (1/2 inch) thickness from the weight stack.
- refit the protective panel on the weight stack.

Adjusting the cable tension

To take up some of the slack in the weight stack cable proceed as follows:
- remove the front protective panel on the weight stack;
- use an Allen key (A) and an open spanner (B);
- loosen the nut (C) securing the screw (D) by half a turn in an anticlockwise direction;
- simultaneously turn both housings of the pulley, clockwise to tighten the cable or anticlockwise to loosen it;
WARNING
Both housings must be turned the same distance on their respective sides: to do this, constantly check that tabs (E) remain perfectly aligned.
- after completing the operation, tighten nut (C) to secure screw (D);
- refit the front protective panel on the weight stack.

Using the equipment

Sit down and pull the lever (A) under the front of the seat to set the height so that the shoulders are in line with the axis of the leverfulcrums. To lower the seat you can remain seated; to raise it, lift your weight off the seat and adjust accordingly.
Select the workload with the pin (B).
Push the handgrips (C) forward and raise the levers (D) to select the initial movement of the arms. This operation is not possible when the levers are moving and the weight stack is raised.
Grip the handgrips (C), with your back fully supported.

Using the equipment
Raise your arms sideways, keeping the forearms against the padding.
Control the speed of movement constantly; the return speed should be slower than the outward speed.
Make the return movement slowly, until you feel the strain taken off the weight.
At the end of the exercise, release the handles and raise the levers to make it easier to stand up.
