ASSEMBLY

Make Things Easier for Yourself

This manual is designed to ensure that the resistance system can be assembled successfully by most people. However, it is important to realize that the versatile resistance system has many parts and that the assembly process will take time. Most people find that by setting aside plenty of time, assembly will go smoothly.

Before beginning assembly, carefully read the following information and instructions:

Assembly requires two persons.

•

• Place all parts in a cleared area and remove the

packing materials. Do not dispose of the packing materials until assembly is completed.

• For help identifying small parts, use the PART IDENTIFICATION CHART. Note: Some small

parts may have been pre-attached for shipping. If a part is not in the parts bag, check to see if it has been pre-attached.

• Tighten all parts as you assemble them, unless

instructed to do otherwise.

• As you assemble the resistance system, make

sure all parts are oriented as shown in the drawings.

The included Allen wrenches and the following tools (not included) are required for assembly:

• Two adjustable wrenches

• One rubber mallet

• One standard screwdriver

• One Phillips screwdriver

• Lubricant, such as grease or petroleum jelly, and soapy water.

Assembly will be more convenient if you have a socket set, a set of open-end or closed-end wrenches, or a set of ratchet wrenches.

Before beginning assembly, make sure that you have read and understand the information in the box above. Refer to the PART IDENTIFICATION CHART for help identifying small parts.
