Safety Information
1) Familiarize yourself and others with the proper operation
and workout recommendations for each piece of Tuff Stuff
equipment prior to use.
2) Consult with your physician before beginning any
exercise program.
3) Use proper discretion when children are present.
4) Frayed or worn cables can be dangerous and may cause
injury. Periodically check these cables for any indication of
wear.
5) Inspect the TG-150 for any sign of parts or hardware
becoming loose.
6) Keep hands and limbs clear from weight stack and all
other moving parts.
Maintenance Information
1) Lubrication of all moving parts is essential to the longevity
and optimal performance of your TG-150. Initial lubrication
of some parts of your gym have been done at the factory, but
the weight stack guide rods must be lubricated at the time of
assembly. We recommend a clear aerosol, silicone or Teflon
spray.
Note: Do not use oil based lubricants as they will attract
dust,dirt, and grime and will eventually gum up and erode
bushings and sealed bearings.
2) All pulleys and bushings should be checked regularly for
signs of wear.
3) Check and adjust tension on cables periodically as it will
maintain proper anatomical function.
4) Periodically check all moving parts, upholstery and grips
for wear. If replacement is necessary, please contact your
local Tuff Stuff retailer or call our Customer Service
Department.
5) As needed, upholstery may be cleaned with a mild
solution of soap and water. Regular use of a vinyl treatment
will add to the life and appearance of your upholstery.
6) All chrome plated surfaces should be cleaned regularly
to prolong the life and luster of the finish. Wipe machine
down with a damp cloth and dry thoroughly each day. At
least once a week your chrome equipment should be
polished with a commercial grade or automotive type chrome
polish.

FIG. 65 Cable Adjustment for the Leg Extension Cable (#89-
labeled with tape D). The Top Plate Swivel Bracket (#59) has been
designed to allow adjustment for the Leg Extension Cable (#89-
labeled with tape D) or the TG-11L (Leg Press Option) cable. To
adjust this cable, simply loosen the bottom nut (Labeled B), then begin
fastening the top nut (Labeled A) until the proper tension has been
achieved with this cable. Note: Over-tightening this cable will cause
the Top Plate/Selector Bar (#42) to lift and become a alignment
problem with the weight pin for the weight stack. Refer to the Cable
Tension Picture on page 19, as it displays an example of the
recommended tension for all cables.
FIG. 66 Next, locate the Leg Ext /Leg Curl Seat Pad (#29) and
attach the Seat Elevation Bracket (#32). Secure it into place using
two Hex Head Cap Screws 3/8-16 X 1 (#13) and two Flat Washers
SAE 3/8” (#12). Next, attach one Metal Hinge (#33) to the Leg Ext /
Leg Curl Seat Pad (#29), as shown above, and secure it into place
using one Hex Head Cap Screw 3/8-16 X 1 (#13) and one Flat Washer
SAE 3/8” (#12). Note: Be sure to position the Metal Hinge (#33), as
pictured above and in Fig. 67.
FIG. 67 Next, attach the Leg Ext /Leg Curl Seat Pad (#29) with the
other Metal Hinge (#33) to the Pec Dec Seat Frame (#35) and secure
it into place using one Hex Head Cap Screw 3/8-16 X 1 (#13) and one
Flat Washer SAE 3/8” (#12).
TG-250 Tuff Gym Series
FIG. 68 Next, attach the Back Pad (#11) to the Pec Dec Back Pad
Bracket (#15) and secure it into place using two Hex head Cap
Screws 3/8-16 X 1 (#13) and two Flat Washers SAE 3/8” (#12). Note:
The Pec Dec Back Pad Bracket (#15) has been pre-assembled to the
Back Frame (#14) by the factory.

FIG. 69 Next, attach the Bench Press Seat Pad (#61) to the
Bench Press Seat Tube (#62) and secure it into place using two Hex
Head Cap Screws 3/8-16 X 1 (#13) and two Flat Washers SAE
3/8” (#12). Note: The Bench Press Seat Tube (#62) has been
attached to the Front Frame (#57) by the factory. Next, fasten the
Black Knob 1/2-13 X1 (#96) to the threaded nut of the Front Frame
(#57), as shown above.
FIG. 70 Next, attach the Bench Press Back Pad (#60) to the
Bench Press Back Pad Bracket (#56) and secure it into place using
two Hex Head Cap Screws 3/8-16 X 1 (#13) and two Flat Washers
SAE 3/8” (#12). Refer to the Exploded View Diagram on page 22 for
further illustration of this hardware assembly. Note: The Bench Press
Back Pad Bracket (#56) has been pre-assembled to the Front Frame
(#57) by the factory. Next, attach the Rubber Bumper 3/8 X 1
1/2” (#99) to the Bench Press Back Pad (#60) and secure it into
place using one Hex Head Cap Screw 3/8-16 X 1 (#13) and one Flat
Washer SAE 3/8” (#12).
FIG. 71 Next, attach the Foot Roll Tube 1 X 23 3/4 (#91) and
insert it into the receptacle of the Bench Press Back Pad Bracket
(#56). Next, insert a Foam Foot Roll 1 X 4 X 7 (#31) and one Foot Roll
Plastic End Cap 1” (#36) into each tube-end of the Foot Roll Tube 1 X
23 3/4 (#91), as shown above.
