Important Precautions

WARNING: To reduce the risk of serious injury, read the following important precautions before using the weight bench.

1.Read all instructions in this manual before using the weight bench.

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

3.Use the weight bench only as described in this manual.

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

5.Inspect and tighten all parts each time you use the weight bench. Replace any worn parts immediately.

6.Keep children under the age of 12 and pets away from the weight bench at all times.

7.Always be sure there is an equal amount of weight on each side of your barbell (not included) 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.

8.Do not use a barbell that is longer than six feet with the weight bench.

9.When you are using the leg lever, place a barbell with the same amount of weight on the weight rests to balance the bench.

10.Keep hands and feet away from moving parts.

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

12.The weight bench does not include weights. The weight bench is designed to support a maximum of 560 pounds, including the user, a weight bar, and weights. Do not place more that 310 pounds, including a weight bar and weights, on the weight rests. Do not place more than 150 pounds on the leg lever or the lat tower.

13.When using the backrest in an inclined position, make sure that the adjustment pin is inserted through both adjustment tubes.

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

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

16.Make sure that the adjustment knobs are inserted completely and tightened into the uprights before beginning any exercise.

17.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.

18.Always remove the curl post from the front leg before performing leg curl or leg extension exercises with the leg lever.

19.Always lower the weight carriage in a controlled manner. Never let the weight carriage drop.
