ASSEMBLY  
Tighten all parts as you assemble them, unless  
instructed to do otherwise.  
Make Things Easier for Yourself  
This manual is designed to ensure that the resist-  
ance system can be assembled successfully by  
most people. However, it is important to realize  
that the versatile resistance system has many  
parts and that the assembly process will take  
time. Most people find that by setting aside plenty  
of time, assembly will go smoothly.  
As you assemble the resistance system, make  
sure all parts are oriented as shown in the draw-  
ings.  
The included Allen wrenches  
and the fol-  
lowing tools (not included) are required for  
assembly:  
• Two adjustable wrenches  
• One rubber mallet  
Before beginning assembly, carefully read the  
following information and instructions:  
Assembly requires two persons.  
• One standard screwdriver  
Place all parts in a cleared area and remove the  
packing materials. Do not dispose of the packing  
materials until assembly is completed.  
• One Phillips screwdriver  
• Lubricant, such as grease or petroleum jelly,  
and soapy water.  
For help identifying small parts, use the PART  
IDENTIFICATION CHART. 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.  
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.

exercise, see the included exercise guide. If the  
resistance setting is too high or too low, select a dif-  
ferent resistance setting by pressing the resistance  
+ and – buttons.  
To enter the number of sets that you plan to do,  
press the SETS + and – buttons. To enter the num-  
ber of repetitions that you plan to do, press the  
REPS + and – buttons.  
4. Adjust the resistance setting and the numbers of  
sets and repetitions for the exercise if desired.  
Note: If you do not enter the numbers of sets and  
repetitions that you plan to do, the console will  
count the total number of repetitions that you com-  
plete during your workout.  
The name of an exercise in the program will appear  
in the main display. The recommended resistance  
setting and the recommended numbers of sets and  
repetitions for the exercise will appear in the three  
displays below the main display.

CABLE DIAGRAM  
The cable diagram shows the proper routing of the  
upper cable (A). Use the diagram to make sure that  
the cable has been assembled correctly. If the cable  
has not been correctly routed, the resistance system  
will not function properly and damage may occur. The  
numbers show the correct route for the cable. Make  
sure that the ends of the cable do not wrap  
around each other between positions 1 and 2, and  
5 and 6.

TROUBLESHOOTING  
CLEANING THE BAR GUIDES  
Over time, dust may build up on the Crossbar Guides  
(15), causing a squeaking noise as the resistance  
system is used. If this occurs, wipe off the Crossbar  
Guides with a damp cloth and a mild, non-abrasive  
detergent. Do not use solvents.

ADJUSTING THE RESISTANCE  
When the resistance setting changes, the motor will  
be heard. To prevent damage to the motor, do not  
pull any of the cables while the resistance setting  
is changing. If a cable is pulled, the words  
RELEASE HANDLES AND READJUST RESIST-  
ANCE AS DESIRED may appear in the main display  
on the console.  
If this message is displayed repeatedly but no cable  
is being pulled, there may be too much tension on the  
upper cable (A). Adjust the tension as described  
below.  
To decrease the tension on the upper cable (A), turn  
the two 3/8” x 38mm Tension Screws (117) twice,  
counterclockwise. Select the desired resistance set-  
ting. Repeat this step if necessary.

cles will continually adapt and grow as you progres-  
sively increase the intensity of your exercise. You can  
adjust the intensity level of an individual exercise in  
two ways:  
• by changing the amount of resistance used  
• by changing the number of repetitions or sets per-  
formed. (A “repetition” is one complete cycle of an  
exercise, such as one sit-up. A “set” is a series of  
repetitions.)

gram. You should progress at your own pace and be  
sensitive to your body’s signals. If you experience pain  
or dizziness at any time while exercising, stop immedi-  
ately and begin cooling down. Find out what is wrong  
before continuing. Remember that adequate rest and a  
proper diet are important factors in any exercise pro-  
gram.  
WARMING UP  
The proper amount of resistance for each exercise  
depends upon the individual user. You must gauge  
your limits and select the amount of resistance that is  
Begin each workout with 5 to 10 minutes of stretching  
and light exercise to warm up. Warming up prepares

energy level is the highest. Each workout should be  
followed by at least one day of rest. Once you find the  
schedule that is right for you, stick with it.  
Weight Loss  
To lose weight, use a low amount of resistance and  
increase the number of repetitions in each set.  
Exercise for 20 to 30 minutes, resting for a maximum  
of 30 seconds between sets.  
EXERCISE FORM  
Maintaining proper form is an essential part of an  
effective exercise program. This requires moving  
through the full range of motion for each exercise, and  
Cross Training  
Cross training is an efficient way to get a complete and moving only the appropriate parts of the body.  
well-balanced fitness program. An example of a bal-  
anced program is:  
• Plan strength training workouts on Monday,  
Wednesday, and Friday.  
• Plan 20 to 30 minutes of aerobic exercise, such as  
running on a treadmill or riding on an elliptical or  
exercise bike, on Tuesday and Thursday.  
Exercising in an uncontrolled manner will leave you  
feeling exhausted. On the exercise guide accompany-  
ing this manual you will find photographs showing the  
correct form for several exercises, and a list of the  
muscles affected. Refer to the muscle chart on the  
next page to find the names of the muscles.

slowly as you stretch and do not bounce. Ease into  
each stretch gradually and go only as far as you can  
without strain. Stretching at the end of each workout  
is an effective way to increase flexibility.  
• Rest for one minute after each set for a toning work-  
out.  
STAYING MOTIVATED  
• Rest for 30 seconds after each set for a weight loss  
workout.  
Plan to spend the first couple of weeks familiarizing  
yourself with the equipment and learning the proper  
form for each exercise.  
For motivation, keep a record of each workout. The  
chart on page 23 of this manual can be photocopied  
and used to schedule and record your workouts. List  
the date, the exercises performed, the resistance  
used, and the numbers of sets and repetitions com-  
pleted. Record your weight and key body measure-  
ments at the end of every month. Remember, the key  
to achieving the greatest results is to make exercise a  
regular and enjoyable part of your everyday life.  
COOLING DOWN  
End each workout with 5 to 10 minutes of stretching.  
Include stretches for both your arms and legs. Move
