1. Read all instructions in this manual before
using the weight bench. Use the weight
bench only as described in this manual.

2. It is the responsibility of the owner to ensure
that all users of the weight bench are ade­quately informed of all precautions.

3. The weight bench is intended for home use
only. Do not use the weight bench in any
commercial, rental, or institutional setting.

4. Use the weight bench only on a level surface.
Cover the floor beneath the weight bench to
protect the floor.

5. Keep children under 12 and pets away from
the weight bench at all times.

6. Make sure all parts are properly tightened
each time you use the weight bench. Replace
any worn parts immediately.

7. Keep hands and feet away from moving parts.

8. Always exercise with a partner. When you
are performing bench press exercises, your
partner should stand behind you to catch the
barbell if you cannot complete a repetition.

9. Always wear athletic shoes for foot protec­tion while exercising.

10. The weight bench is designed to support a
maximum user weight of 300 pounds. Do not
use more than 150 pounds of weight, includ­ing a barbell and weights, while sitting on the
bench. Do not place more than 150 pounds
on the weight rests. Do not place more than
150 pounds on the leg lever, or weight car­riage. Note: The weight bench does not
include a barbell or weights.

11. Always keep an equal amount of weight on
both ends of your barbell when you are
using it. When adding or removing weights,
always keep some weight on both ends of
the barbell to prevent the barbell from tip­ping.

12. Always set both weight rests at the same
height. Make sure that the adjustment knobs
are inserted completely and tightened into
the uprights before beginning any exercise.

13. To reduce the risk of the weight rack tipping,
place 60 pounds on the storage tube on the
rack stabilizer before using the high pulley
station or weight rests.

14. If you feel pain or dizziness at any time while
exercising, stop immediately and begin cool­ing down.
