IMPORTANT PRECAUTIONS
WARNING: To reduce the risk of serious injury, read the following important precautions before using the home gym system.
WARNING: Before beginning this or any exercise program, consult your physician. This is especially important for persons over the age of 35 or persons with pre-existing health problems. Read all instructions before using. ICON assumes no responsibility for personal injury or property damage sustained by or through the use of this product.
1. Read all instructions in this manual and in the accompanying literature before using the home gym system.
2. Use the home gym system only on a level surface. Cover the floor beneath the home gym system for protection.
3. Inspect and tighten all parts often. Replace any worn parts immediately.
4. Keep children under 12 and pets away from the home gym system at all times.
5. Never release the press arm, butterfly arms, squat arm, leg lever, lat bar or nylon strap whilst weights are raised. The weights will fall with great force.
6. This equipment is not to be used by more than one person at a time.

8. Always stand on a foot plate when performing an exercise that could cause the home gym system to tip.
9. Keep hands and feet away from moving parts.
10. Keep your hands away from the squat arm upright when the squat arm is being used. Your hand could become pinched between the squat arm upright and squat arm.
11. Inspect all cables before each use. Make sure that the cables remain on the pulleys at all times. If the cables bind whilst you are exer­cising, stop immediately and make sure that the cables are on all of the pulleys. Replace all cables every two years.
12. Always disconnect the lat bar from the home gym system when performing an exercise that does not use the lat bar.
13. If you feel pain or dizziness at any time whilst exercising, stop immediately and begin cool­ing down.
14. Always attach the lock pins and locks to the weight guides when the home gym system is not in use (see page 16).

HOW TO USE THE HOME GYM SYSTEM
The instructions below describe how each part of the home gym system can be adjusted. IMPORTANT: When attaching the lat bar or nylon strap, make sure that the attachments are in the correct starting position for the exercise to be performed. If there is any slack in the cables or chain as an exercise is performed, the effectiveness of the exercise will be reduced.

CHANGING THE WEIGHT SETTING
The WEIDER 8530 features two weight stacks. The front weight stack is connected to the upper and lower pulleys, the press arm, and the butterfly arms. The rear weight stack is connected to the squat arm.
To change the weight setting of either weight stack, insert a Weight Pin (26) under the desired Weight (25). Insert the Weight Pin until the bent end of the Weight Pin is touching the Weights, and turn the bent end downward. The weight setting of either weight stack can be changed from 6,5 pounds to 106,5 pounds, in increments of 12,5 pounds. Note: Due to
the cables and pulleys, the actual amount of resistance at each exercise station may vary from the weight setting. Use the WEIGHT RESISTANCE CHART on page 17 to find the actual amount of resistance at each weight station.
Note: 1 kg = 2,2 lbs
ATT ACHING THE LAT BAR OR NYLON STRAP TO THE HIGH PULLEY STATION
Attach the Lat Bar (54) to the Medium Cable (58) with a Cable Clip (53). For some exercises, the Chain (52) should be attached between the Lat Bar and the Medium Cable with two Cable Clips. Adjust the
length of the Chain between the Lat Bar and the Medium Cable so the Lat Bar is in the correct starting position for the exercise to be performed.
The Nylon Strap (39) can be attached in the same manner.

Decal
34. Apply the 8530 decal to the Front Upright (42) in the indicated location. The top of the decal should be 6” from the top of the Front Upright.
Page 16

ATT ACHING AND REMOVING THE SEAT
To attach the Seat (13), set the bracket on the Seat Frame (36) onto the indicated pins on the Front Upright (42). Attach the Seat Frame to the Front Upright with the 5/16” x 2 3/4” Carriage Bolt (14) and the Seat Knob (40).
For some exercises, the Seat (13) must be removed. First, be sure that the chain is not attached to the leg lever. Next, remove the Seat Knob (40) and the 5/16” x 2 3/4” Carriage Bolt (14) from the Seat Frame (36). Lift the Seat Frame off the Front Upright (42).
ATT ACHING THE LEG LEVER TO THE LOW PULLEY STATION
To use the Leg Lever (29), the seat must be attached to the front upright (see ATTACHING AND REMOV­ING THE SEAT above.)
Attach one end of the Chain (52) to the Short Cable (23) with a Cable Clip (53). Attach the other end of the Chain to the Eyebolt (35) with a Cable Clip.
LOCKING THE WEIGHT STACK
When the home gym system is not in use, the Lock Pins (97) and Locks (98) should be attached. Insert one of the Lock Pins through one of the Long Weight Guides (62). Attach one of the Locks to the Lock Pin.
Attach the remaining Lock Pin (97) and Lock (98) to one of the Short Weight Guides (not shown) in the same manner.

of the Chain between the Lat Bar and the Short Cable so the Lat Bar is in the correct starting position for the exercise to be performed.
The Nylon Strap (39) can be attached in the same manner.

WEIGHT RESISTANCE CHART
This chart shows the approximate weight resistance at each station. “Top” refers to the 6,5 lbs. top weight. The other numbers refer to the 12,5 lbs. weight plates. The butterfly arm resistance listed is the resistance for each butterfly arm. Note: The actual resistance at each weight station may vary due to differences in individual weight plates, as well as friction between the cables, pulleys, and weight guides.

TROUBLE-SHOOTING AND MAINTENANCE
Inspect and tighten all parts each time you use the home gym system. Replace any worn parts immediately. The home gym system can be cleaned using a damp cloth and mild non-abrasive detergent. Do not use solvents.
TIGHTENING THE CABLES
Woven cable, the type of cable used on the home gym system, can stretch slightly when it is first used. If there is slack in the cables before resistance is felt, the cables should be tightened.
Tightening the Medium and Short Cables
If any slack is felt when using the front weight stack, both the Medium Cable (58) and the Short Cable (23) will need to be tightened. Insert the weight pin into the middle of the weight stack. Slack can be removed from these cables three ways:
See drawing 1. Tighten the 1/4” Nylon Locknut (2) that connects the end of the Short Cable (23) to the Long “U”-Bracket (57).
See drawing 1. Move the 3 1/2” Pulley (15) to the other hole in the Long “U”-Bracket (57). Remove the 3/8” Nylon Locknut (21) and the 3/8” x 2” Bolt (12) from Pulley Covers (96), Pulley, and Long “U”-Bracket. Re­attach the Pulley and Pulley Covers. Be sure that the Pulley Covers are in the proper position and that the Cable and Pulley move smoothly.
See drawing 2. Tighten the 1/4” Nylon Locknut (2) that connects the end of the Medium Cable (58) to the Small “U”-Bracket (71).
Tightening the Long Cable
If any slack is felt when using the rear weight stack, the Long Cable (72) will need to be tightened. Insert the weight pin into the middle of the weight stack. Slack can be removed from these cables two ways:
See drawing 2. Tighten the 1/4” Nylon Locknut (2) that connects the end of the Long Cable (72) to the Small “U”-Bracket (71).
See drawing 3. Move the 3 1/2” Pulley to another hole in the Squat Arm Upright (56). Remove the 3/8” Nylon Locknut (21) and the 3/8” x 5” Bolt (not shown) from the Pulley Covers (96), and Pulley. Re-attach the Pulley and Pulley Covers. Be sure that the Pulley Covers are in the proper position and that the Cable and Pulley move smoothly.
Do not overtighten the cables. The top weight will be lifted off the weight stack.
Note: Inspect all cables before each use. If a cable tends to slip off the pulleys often, the cable may have become twisted. Remove the cable and re-install it.
If the cables need to be replaced, see ORDERING REPLACEMENT PARTS on the back cover of this manual.
Replace all cables every two years.

CABLE DIAGRAM
The cable diagram below shows the proper routing of the Long Cable (72), the Medium Cable (58), and the Short Cable (23). Use the diagram to be sure that the three cables and cable traps have been assembled cor­rectly. If the cables have not been correctly routed, the home gym system will not function properly and damage may occur. The insets show the proper positioning of the cable traps. The cable traps should be positioned so that the cables will not come off the pulleys. Be sure that the cable traps do not touch or bind the cables.
