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

7. Keep hands and feet away from moving parts.

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

9. Do not use a barbell longer than seven feet with this weight bench (7’ olympic bar included).

10. Always make sure there is an equal amount of weight on each side of the olympic bar (included) when you are using it.

11. The weight bench is designed to support a maximum of 560 pounds, including the user, a barbell and weights. Do not place more than 310 pounds, including a barbell and weights on the weight rests. Do not place more than 150 pounds on the leg lever for normal use.

12. Always place 50 pounds on the leg lever when performing squat exercises to balance the bench (see page 11).

13. Always fold the backrest out of the way when performing squat exercises (see page 11). Do not sit on the seat when the backrest is folded.

14. Do not stand with your back to the weight bench when performing squat exercises (see page 11). You should be able to see the weight rests while exercising so that you can safely return the barbell to the weight rests when you finish the exercise.
