ASSEMBLY
ake Assembly Easier
M
verything in this manual is designed to ensure
E
that the weight bench can be assembled successfully by almost anyone. By setting aside
plenty of time, assembly will go smoothly.
Before beginning assembly, carefully read the
following information and instructions:
• To hire an authorized service technician to
assemble the weight bench, call 1-800-445-2480.
• Assembly requires two persons.
• Because of its size, the weight bench should be
assembled in the location where it will be used.
Make sure that there is enough clearance to walk
around the weight bench as 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 pages 5.
• As you assemble the weight bench, make sure all
parts are oriented as shown in the drawings.
• Tighten all parts as you assemble them, unless
instructed to do otherwise.
• Assembly requires the included hex key(s)
and the following tools (not included):
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.
