2. Bolt on the teardrop pulleys above the benches (see Figure 4) on the 3 stack cell  
using two 3/8” x 2-3/4” hex head bolts (used to bolt the cross beam to the cross  
members and the adjustable pulley tops to the top beams). Include the 3/8” flat  
washer, end cap washers, end caps and 3/8” Nyloc (locknut). Use the bolt  
configuration shown in Figure 5. You may wish to use a pinch bar to align the bolt  
holes.

extension and combination wrench, to the cells using two of the large 7/16” x 6” bolts,  
7/16” washers, and 7/16” nuts (parts A, B, and C in HARDWARE section at end of  
these instructions), end cap washers and end caps (parts F and H in HARDWARE  
section). Figure 6 shows the connected cells. You will need to remove the pulleys  
from the teardrop pulley assemblies to gain clearance for the socket wrench  
extension. Leave the pulleys out of the housings until the cables have been installed.

4. Mount the 56” lat top (part T from HARDWARE section) to the 4-stack cell using a  
5/8” socket and combination wrench. Insert two of the large 7/16” by 6” bolts using the  
hardware configuration shown in Figure 7. Mount the 29” tricep top (part U in  
HARDWARE section) to the frame and connecting beam (See Figure 7).

5. Mount the weight stacks to the 4-stack cell. To do this:  
A. Remove the tricep back rest bolts using a 9/16” socket and combination  
wrench (see Figure 9).  
B. Unbolt the top plate and remove the guide rods using a 9/16” socket and  
combination wrench (see Figure 9).

C. Prepare the weight stack-  
add bumpers to bottom, insert  
guide rods, put pull pin in  
bottom plate of stack.  
D. Flip over the weight stack  
onto piano dolly.  
E. Hoist the weight  
stack onto the machine.  
Figure 10. Putting on the weight stacks.  
C. Prepare the weight stacks. Slide the guide rods (2) through the weight stacks  
(1) as shown above. Place rubber bumpers (3) on the bottoms of each guide rod.  
Make sure the pull pin (4) is in the bottom weight plate.  
D. Flip over the weight stacks. When shipped, the weight stacks have the pull pins  
facing upward. You will need to flip the stacks over so that the pull pins are facing  
outward when they are loaded onto the machine. Since the pull pins will be facing  
downward when they are flipped over, it is recommended that you put the stacks  
on a padded carpet to keep the pins from being damaged.  
E. Set the weight stacks onto the machine. Using a piano dolly, lift the weight  
stacks over the bottom plate and set the stacks onto the rubber bumpers with the  
plate numbers facing outward. The 300 lb weight stacks need to be facing the  
“sides” of the cells (where the benches will be attached- see Figure 9). The 190 lb  
weight stacks will need to be facing the “outsides” and “insides” of the cells  
(where the tricep pulley adjustable pulleys will be attached- see Figure 9). Make  
sure all pull pins are facing outward.

F. Bolt on the top plate. With the top plate on the guide rods, bolt on the top plate  
to the top of the cells as shown in Figure 11 using a 9/16” socket and combination  
wrench and the 3” bolts (with cap washers) that were previously inserted.  
Figure 11. Bolt on the top plate.  
6. Bolt the floating pulley into the 190 lb cable crossover weight stack (NOT  
intended for the tricep pushdown weight stack- the one with the tricep back rest  
mounted to the frame as shown in Figure 9) using a 7/8” combination wrench. You  
will need to remove the pulley from the housing to thread the plug into the weight  
stack bayonet. Make sure the 9/16” jam nut is threaded 1-5/8” away from the pulley  
as shown in Figure 12. Leave the pulleys out since you will need to have them out  
when the cable is routed.

pushdown weight stack).

7. Mount adjustable pulley brackets. When shipped, the adjustable pulley brackets  
look like the ones shown in Figure 13. The bolts need to be removed and the bracket  
needs to be positioned so that the top of the bracket is in the top hole as shown by  
the arrow in Figure 13. Use a 3” bolt with flat washers, end cap washers and end  
caps. When you remove the bolts, leave the pulley bolt and pulley out since you will  
need to thread the cable with the pulley removed.  
Figure 13. Mount adjustable pulley bracket.  
8. Mount the seated row and lat bench to the frame. Using the bolts specified in  
Figure 14 and a 9/16” socket and combination wrenches, mount the benches as  
shown in Figures 14 and 15.

INSTALLING THE CABLES  
The SM42 uses four cables. There are two different types of cable used on the SM42. They  
are:  
1. Adjustable crossover cables (ball end cables) (2).  
2. Lat pulldown and tricep cables (2).  
The lat and tricep cables can be identified by their short length and the adjustable crossover  
cables can be identified by the ball on the end of the cable. The routings for these cables are  
shown in the figures below.  
NOTE: YOU MUST REMOVE ALL PULLEYS TO ROUTE THE CABLES.  
USE A 9/16” COMBINATION WRENCH AND SOCKET TO DO THIS  
(SEE FIGURE 16). YOU MAY WISH TO REMOVE THE SHOULDER  
BOLTS (FIGURE 16 RIGHT SIDE) BY USING A 3/8” COMBINATION  
WRENCH AND A 1/8” HEX KEY WRENCH. WHEN YOU HAVE  
ROUTED THE CABLES, REPLACE ALL PULLEYS AND PLACE  
END CAPS ON NUT AND BOLT ENDS. YOU MAY NEED TO PRY  
THE PULLEY HOUSINGS OPEN TO REPLACE THE PULLEYS.

ADJUSTABLE CROSSOVER CABLE ROUTING  
Once you’ve removed the pulleys as described previously, route the adjustable crossover  
cable on the 4-stack cell as shown in Figure 17. The crossover cable is routed at the factory  
on the 1 stack cube (shown at right in Figure 17).

Using a 7/8” wrench, tighten the jam nut onto the adjustable pulley threads as shown in Figure  
18. Place a rubber cap on the top of the cable as shown in Figure 18 (right).  
LAT PULLDOWN CABLE ROUTING  
Route the lat pulldown cable as shown in Figure 19.

bolt as shown at left. Screw the bolt down into the weight stack as shown at right. Tighten the  
bolt with a 7/8” combination wrench.  
Figure 20. Screw the cable into the weight stack.  
TRICEP PUSHDOWN CABLE ROUTING  
Route the tricep pushdown cable as shown in Figure 21. Bolt the cable into the weight stack  
as shown previously in Figure 20.
