IMPORTANT PRECAUTIONS
WARNING:
To reduce the risk of serious injury, read the following important precautions
before using the weight rack.
1. Read all instructions in this manual before
using the weight rack. Use the weight rack
only as described in this manual.
10. Make sure that the cables remain on the pul-
leys at all times. If the cables bind as you are
exercising, stop immediately and make sure
that the cables are on the pulleys. Replace all
cables at least every two years.
2. It is the responsibility of the owner to ensure
that all users of the weight rack are ade-
quately informed of all precautions.
11. The weight rack is designed to support a
maximum user weight of 300 pounds, and a
maximum total weight of 610 pounds. Do not
place more than 310 pounds, including the
barbell, on the weight rests. Do not place
more than 150 pounds on the weight car-
riage. Note: The weight rack is designed to
be used with an Olympic barbell. The weight
rack does not include a barbell or weights.
3. The weight rack is intended for home use
only. Do not use the weight rack in any com-
mercial, rental, or institutional setting.
4. Use the weight rack only on a level surface.
Cover the floor beneath the weight rack to
protect the floor.
5. Make sure all parts are properly tightened
each time the weight rack is used. Replace
any worn parts immediately.
12. Always place an equal amount of weight on
each side of the weight carriage or barbell.
13. Always secure the weights with the weight
clips when they are mounted on the weight
carriage.
6. Keep children under 12 and pets away from
the weight rack at all times.
7. Keep hands and feet away from moving parts. 14. Always exercise with a partner. Your partner
should be ready to catch the barbell if you
cannot complete a repetition.
8. Always wear athletic shoes for foot protec-
tion while exercising.
15. If you feel pain or dizziness at any time while
exercising, stop immediately and begin cool-
ing down.
9. Always set both weight rests at the same
height.

ASSEMBLY
• As you assemble the weight rack, make sure all
parts are oriented as shown in the drawings.
Make Things Easier for Yourself
Everything in this manual is designed to ensure
that the weight rack can be assembled success-
fully by anyone. However, it is important to real-
ize that the versatile weight rack 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.
• For help identifying small parts, use the PART
IDENTIFICATION CHART.
The following tools (not included) are required
for assembly:
• Two adjustable wrenches
• One rubber mallet
Before beginning assembly, carefully read the
following information and instructions:
• One standard screwdriver
• One Phillips screwdriver
• Assembly requires two people.
• Lubricant, such as grease or petroleum jelly,
and soapy water.
• Place all parts in a cleared area and remove the
packing materials. Do not dispose of the packing
materials until assembly is completed.
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.
• Tighten all parts as you assemble them, unless
instructed to do otherwise.

Before using the weight rack, 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. See the CABLE
DIAGRAMS on pages 21 and 22 of this manual for proper cable routing. If there is any slack in the
cables, you will need to remove the slack by tightening the cables. See TROUBLESHOOTING AND
MAINTENANCE on page 23.

ADJUSTING THE WEIGHT RESTS
Before performing an exercise that uses a barbell (not
included), adjust the Weight Rests (15) to a comfort-
able height for lifting and replacing the barbell. To
move the Weight Rests, lift the hooks on the Weight
Rests off the Right Uprights (5, 85 [not shown]). Set

ADJUSTING THE SAFETY SPOTTER
Before performing an exercise that uses a barbell (not
included), adjust the Safety Spotter (11) to the height
that is best suited for that exercise. Moving the Safety
Spotter will change the distance that the barbell can
move.
First, attach the barbell to the high cable (see
ATTACHING A BARBELL TO THE CABLES, on page
20). Then, pull the Pop Pin (61) out as far as it will go
and move the Safety Spotter (11) to the position that
will stop the barbell at the lowest point that you want
it to go during the exercise. Engage the Pop Pin into
an adjustment hole in the Rear Upright (4) and turn it
clockwise until it is tight.

TROUBLESHOOTING AND MAINTENANCE
Make sure all parts are properly tightened each time the weight rack is used. Replace any worn parts immediately.
The weight rack 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 weight rack, can stretch slightly when it is first used. If there is slack
in the cables before resistance is felt, the cables should be tightened. Make sure that the cables are not too
tight, or the weight carriage will be lifted. Slack can be removed in the following ways.
See drawing A. Remove the M10 x 54mm Button Bolt
(73) and the M10 Nylon Locknut (62) attaching the
A
lower 3 1/2” Pulley (45) and the Short Cable Trap (47)
to the Pulley Plates (20). Use the Bolt and Locknut to

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

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

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. See 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 pages 26 and 27 of this manual can be pho-
tocopied and used to schedule and record your work-
outs. List the date, the exercises performed, the resist-
ance used, and the numbers of sets and repetitions
completed. Record your weight and key body meas-
urements at the end of every month. Remember, the
key to achieving the greatest results is to make exer-
cise 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
