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.
ICON assumes no responsibility for personal injury or property damage sustained by or through the
use of this product.
1. Before beginning any exercise program,
consult your physician. This is especially
important for persons over age 35 or persons with pre-existing health problems.
2. Use the weight bench only as described in
this manual.
3. It is the responsibility of the owner to ensure
that all users of the weight bench are adequately informed of all precautions.
4. The weight bench is intended for home use
only. Do not use the weight bench in any
commercial, rental, or institutional setting.
5. Keep the weight bench indoors, away from
moisture and dust. Place the weight bench
on a level surface, with a mat beneath it to
protect the floor or carpet. Make sure that
there is enough clearance around the weight
bench to mount, dismount, and use the
weight bench.
6. Inspect and properly tighten all parts regularly. Replace any worn parts immediately.
7. Keep children under age 12 and pets away
from the weight bench at all times.
11. Always place the same amount of weight on
both ends of the barbell. While adding or
removing weights, always keep some weight
on both ends of the barbell to prevent the
barbell from tipping. Always secure weights
with the weight collars.
12. The weight bench is designed to support a
maximum user weight of 300 lbs. (136 kg)
and a maximum total weight of 410 lbs. (186
kg). Do not place more than 110 lbs. (50 kg),
including a barbell and weights, on the

(50 kg) on the weight carriage. Do not place
more than 50 lbs. (23 kg) on the leg lever.
13. Always remove the curl post and the lat
tower from the front leg before using the leg
lever.
14. Before using the leg lever, place a barbell
with the same amount of weight on the
weight rests to balance the bench.
15. Before using the backrest in an inclined
position or a level position, make sure that
the backrest support is inserted fully into the
uprights and that it is turned to the locked
position.
8. Keep hands and feet away from moving
parts.
9. Always wear athletic shoes for foot protection while using the weight bench.
10. Do not use a barbell that is longer than 5 ft.
(1.5 m) with the weight bench.
14 3
16. Over exercising may result in serious injury
or death. If you feel faint or if you experience
pain while exercising, stop immediately and
cool down.
17. Always exercise with a partner. Your partner
should stand behind you to catch the barbell
if you cannot complete a repetition.

PART IDENTIFICATION CHARTEXERCISE GUIDELINES
OUR TYPES OF STRENGTH WORKOUTS
F
Note: A “repetition” is one complete cycle of an exercise, such as one sit-up. A “set” is a series of
epetitions.
r
Muscle Building—Work your muscles near their maximum capacity and progressively increase the intensity
of your exercise. Adjust the intensity level of an individual exercise as follows:
• Change the amount of resistance used.
• Change the number of repetitions or sets performed.
Use your own judgment to determine the amount of
resistance that is right for you. Begin with 3 sets of 8
repetitions for each exercise that you perform. Rest for
3 minutes after each set. When you can complete 3
sets of 12 repetitions without difficulty, increase the
amount of resistance.
Toning—Tone your muscles by working them to a
moderate percentage of their capacity. Select a moderate amount of resistance and increase the number
of repetitions in each set. Complete as many sets of
15 to 20 repetitions as possible without discomfort.
Rest for 1 minute after each set. Work your muscles
by completing more sets rather than by using high
amounts of resistance.
Weight Loss—To lose weight, use a low amount of
resistance and increase the number of repetitions in
each set. Exercise for 20 to 30 minutes, resting for a
maximum of 30 seconds between sets.
Cross Training—Combine strength training and aerobic exercise by following this type of program:
• Strength workouts on Monday, Wednesday, and
Friday.
• 20 to 30 minutes of aerobic exercise on Tuesday
and Thursday.
• One full day of rest each week to give your body
time to regenerate.
WORKOUT GUIDELINES
Familiarize yourself with the equipment and learn the
proper form for each exercise. Use your own judgment
to determine the appropriate length of time for each
orkout, and the numbers of repetitions and sets to
w
complete. Progress at your own pace and be sensitive
to your bodyʼs signals. Follow each strength workout
with at least one day of rest.
Warming Up—Start with 5 to 10 minutes of stretching
and light exercise. A warm-up increases your body
temperature, heart rate, and circulation in preparation
for exercise.
Working Out—Include 6 to 10 different exercises in
each workout. Select exercises for every major muscle
group, emphasizing areas that you want to develop.
To give balance and variety to your workouts, vary the
exercises from workout to workout.
Cooling Down—Finish with 5 to 10 minutes of
stretching. Stretching increases the flexibility of your
muscles and helps to prevent post-exercise problems.
EXERCISE FORM
Move through the full range of motion for each exercise and move only the appropriate parts of the body.
Perform the repetitions in each set smoothly and without pausing. The exertion stage of each repetition
should last about half as long as the return stage.
Exhale during the exertion stage of each repetition
and inhale during the return stroke. Never hold your
breath.
Rest for a short period of time after each set:
• Muscle Building—Rest for three minutes after each
set.
• Toning—Rest for one minute after each set.
• Weight Loss—Rest for 30 seconds after each set.
STAYING MOTIVATED
For motivation, keep a record of each workout. Write
the date, the exercises performed, the resistance
used, and the numbers of sets and repetitions completed. Record your weight and key body
measurements once a month. To achieve good
results, make exercise a regular and enjoyable part of
your life.
This chart is provided to help you identify the small parts used in assembly. The number in parentheses below
each part refers to the key number of the part from the PART LIST near the end of this manual. Note: If a part
s not in the hardware kit, check to see if it has been preattached.

Assembly requires two persons.
•
• Because of its weight and 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 page 5.
