Assembly  
Note: This introduction will save you more time  
than it takes to read it!  
Identifying Parts  
To help you identify the small parts used in assem-  
bly, we have included a PART IDENTIFICATION  
CHART located in the center of this manual. Place  
the chart on the floor or work table and use it to  
quickly identify different parts for each step. Note:  
Some small parts may have been pre-attached for  
shipping. If a part is not in the parts bag, check to  
see if it has been pre-attached.  
Making Things Easier for Yourself  
Everything in this manual is designed to ensure  
that our products can be assembled successfully  
by anyone. However, it is important to realize  
that your new equipment is a sophisticated prod-  
uct with many small parts. The assembly process  
will take time—possibly several hours. Most peo-  
ple find that by setting aside plenty of time, and  
by deciding to make the task enjoyable, assem-  
bly will go smoothly. You may want to complete  
the process over a couple of evenings.  
Orienting Parts  
As you assemble this product, be sure that all parts  
are oriented as shown in the drawings.  
Tightening Parts  
Tighten all parts as you assemble them, unless  
instructed to do otherwise.  
Some assembly steps require two people.  
Lining Up the Tools  
Assembly requires the following tools (not included):  
Giving Yourself a Good Start  
Before you begin the assembly process itself, take  
the time to complete the steps outlined here.  
• Two (2) adjustable wrenches  
• One (1) standard screwdriver  
• One (1) phillips screwdriver  
• One (1) rubber mallet  
Clearing the Workspace  
Clear a workspace that is large enough to hold all  
parts and allow you to walk all the way around the  
assembled equipment.  
Unpacking the Box  
• Lubricant, such as grease or petroleum jelly,  
and soapy water  
To make the assembly process as smooth as possi-  
ble, we have broken it into separate stages. All parts  
used in each stage are found in individual packages  
in the shipping box. Place all parts in a cleared area  
and remove the packing materials. Do not dispose of  
the packing materials until assembly is completed.  
Tape, such as clear tape or masking tape  
Assembly will be more convenient if you have a  
socket set, a set of open-end or closed-end wrenches  
or a set of ratchet wrenches.  
Important: Wait until you begin each assembly  
stage to open the parts bag labeled for that  
assembly stage.  
The Four Stages of the Assembly Process  
Frame Assembly  
Cable Assembly  
You will begin by assembling the base and the  
upright frames that serve as the skeleton of the  
equipment.  
This assembly completes the cables and pulleys  
that connect the moving arms with each other and  
with the weights.  
Seat Assembly  
Arm Assembly  
This assembly completes the seat and backrest  
that support your body while you are exercising.

ADJUSTMENT, beginning on page 21 of this manual.  
Before using the home gym, pull each cable a few times to make sure that the cables move smoothly over  
the pulleys. If one of the cables does not move smoothly, find and correct the problem. IMPORTANT: If the  
cables are not properly installed, they may be damaged when heavy weight is used. If there is any  
slack in the cables, you will need to remove the slack by tightening the cables. See TROUBLE-  
SHOOTING AND MAINTENANCE on page 22.

Cable Diagrams  
The Cable Diagrams below and on the next page show the proper routing of the Short Cable (71), the Medium  
Cable (72), and the Long Cable (73). The numbers show the correct route for each Cable. Make sure that the  
Cables are routed correctly, that the Pulleys move smoothly, and that the Cable Traps do not touch or  
bind the Cables. Incorrect cable routing can damage the home gym.

Adjustment  
The instructions below describe how each part of the home gym can be adjusted. Refer to the exercise poster  
accompanying this manual to see how the home gym should be set up for each exercise. IMPORTANT: When  
using an attachment, make sure it is 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  
To change the setting of the weight stack, insert a Weight  
Pin (87) under the desired Weight (8). Make sure you  
insert the Weight Pin as far as it will go. Note: Due to the  
cables and pulleys, the amount of resistance at each  
exercise station may vary from the weight setting.  
Use the WEIGHT RESISTANCE CHART on page 23 to  
find the approximate amount of resistance at each  
weight station.

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.

Trouble-shooting and Maintenance  
Inspect and tighten all parts each time you use the home gym. Replace any worn parts immediately. The  
home gym can be cleaned using a damp cloth and mild non-abrasive detergent. Do not use solvents.  
Tightening the Cables  
If a cable slips 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.  
The type of cable used on the home gym can stretch slightly when it is first used. If there is slack in the cables  
before resistance is felt, the cables should be tightened. Slack can be removed from the cables in several differ-  
ent ways:  
The Adjustable Pulley Plates (44) have two sets of  
adjustment holes. By moving one or both 3 1/2” Pulleys  
(5) to a different set of holes, you will tighten the cables.  
35  
44  
To move a 3 1/2” Pulley (5), remove the 3/8” Nylon  
Locknut (4) and the 3/8”x 2” Bolt (35). Remove the Cable  
Trap (39) and Pulley from the Adjustable Pulley Plates  
(44). Re-attach the Pulley and Cable Trap to the appro-  
priate adjustment hole in the Pulley Plates. Note: Begin  
by moving one Pulley to the second adjustment hole.  
If additional adjustment is needed, move the other  
Pulley until the cables are tight.

Slack can be removed from the Long Cable (73) by mov-  
ing the 3 1/2” Pulley (5) on the Long Cable in the direc-  
tion shown. It is attached to the small tube on the Press  
Seat Frame (52). There are two free holes in the small  
tube, and you can move the 3 1/2” Pulley to any one of  
them to tighten the cables. To do this, remove the 3/8”  
Nylon Locknut (4), 3/8” Flat Washer (17), and the 3/8” x  
2 1/2” Bolt (6). Start by moving the 3 1/2” Pulley one  
hole, and then one more as needed.

the Weights (8) can also be used to tighten the cables.

Weight Resistance Chart  
The chart below shows the approximate weight resistance at each exercise station. “Top” refers to the 6 lb. top  
weight; the other numbers refer to the 12.5 lb. weight plates. Note: The actual resistance at each station may  
vary due to differences in individual weight plates as well as friction between the cables, pulleys, and  
weight guides.
