ASSEMBLY

To make assembly easier, carefully read the following information and instructions:

•Assembly requires two persons.

•Because of its weight and size, the weight system should be assembled in the location where it will be used. Make sure that there is enough clearance to walk around the weight system while you assemble it.

•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 on page 6.

•The following tools (not included) may be required for assembly:

two adjustable wrenches one rubber mallet one standard screwdriver one Phillips screwdriver

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