IMPORTANT PRECAUTIONS
WARNING: To reduce the risk of serious injury, read all important precautions and
instructions in this manual and all warnings on your weight bench before using your weight bench.
Sears assumes no responsibility for personal injury or property damage sustained by or through the
use of this product.
1. It is the responsibility of the owner to ensure
that all users of the weight bench are adequately informed of all precautions.
2. Before beginning any exercise program,
consult your physician. This is especially
important for persons over age 35 or persons with pre-existing health problems.
3. The weight bench is not intended for use by
persons with reduced physical, sensory, or
mental capabilities or lack of experience and
knowledge, unless they are given supervision or instruction about use of the weight
bench by someone responsible for their
safety.
4. Use the weight bench only as described in
this manual.
5. The weight bench is intended for home use
only. Do not use the weight bench in any
commercial, rental, or institutional setting.
6. Keep the weight bench indoors, away from
moisture and dust. Do not put the weight
bench in a garage or covered patio, or near
water.
7. Place the weight bench on a level surface,
with enough clearance around the weight
bench to mount, dismount, and use the
weight bench. To protect the floor or carpet
from damage, place a mat under the weight
bench.
10. Keep hands and feet away from moving
parts.
11. Always wear athletic shoes for foot
protection while using the weight bench.
12. The weight bench is designed to support a
maximum user weight of 300 lbs. (136 kg),
and a maximum total weight of 510 lbs.
(231 kg). Do not place more than 210 lbs.
(95 kg), including a barbell and weights (not
included), on the weight rests. Do not place
more than 130 lbs. (59 kg) on the leg lever.
13. Always place the same amount of weight on
both ends of your barbell. While adding or
removing weights, always keep some weight
on both ends of your barbell to prevent the
barbell from tipping. Always secure weights
with your spring collars.
14. Before you use the weight rests, make sure
that the weight rests are properly attached
to the uprights. In addition, make sure that
the spotters are properly attached to the
uprights.
15. Always make sure that the locking pin is
fully inserted into the seat frame and into
the pivot bracket before you use the weight
bench
16. Always exercise with a partner. Your partner
should be ready to catch your barbell if you
cannot complete a repetition
8. Inspect and properly tighten all parts each
time the weight bench is used. Replace any
worn parts immediately.
9. Keep children under age 13 and pets away
from the weight bench at all times.
17. Over exercising may result in serious injury
or death. If you feel faint, if you become short
of breath, or if you experience pain while
exercising, stop immediately and cool down.
