IMPORTANT PRECAUTIONS
WARNING:
To reduce the risk of serious injury, read the following important precautions
before using the weight system.
1. Read all instructions in this manual and all
warnings on the weight system before using
the weight system. Use the weight system
only as described in this manual.
9. Always wear athletic shoes for foot protec-
tion while exercising.
10. Always stand on the foot plate when per-
forming an exercise that could cause the
weight system to tip.
2. It is the responsibility of the owner to ensure
that all users of the weight system are ade-
quately informed of all precautions.
11. The weight system is designed to support a
maximum user weight of 136 kg (300 lbs.).
3. The weight system is intended for home use
only. Do not use the weight system in any
commercial, rental, or institutional setting.
12. The weight system is designed to be used
only with the included weight. Do not use the
weight system with dumbbells or any other
type of weight to increase the resistance.
4. Keep the weight system indoors, away from
moisture and dust. Place the weight system
on a level surface, with a mat beneath it to
protect the floor or carpet. Make sure that
there is enough clearance around the weight
system to mount, dismount, and use the
weight system.
13. Always move the seat frame out of the way
when performing squat exercises.
14. Never release the ankle strap, leg lever,
squat bar, leg press, curl bar, or handles
while weights are raised; the weights will fall
with great force.
5. Inspect and properly tighten all parts regular-
ly. Replace any worn parts immediately.
15. Do not use the weight system with the top
weight pinned in an elevated position.
6. Keep children under 12 and pets away from
the weight system at all times.
16. Always secure the weight stack with the lock

unauthorized use of the weight system (see
LOCKING THE WEIGHT STACK on page 15).
8. 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.
17. If you feel pain or dizziness at any time while
exercising, stop immediately and begin cool-
ing down.

ASSEMBLY
• As you assemble the weight system, 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 system can be assembled suc-
cessfully by almost anyone. However, the weight
system has many parts and the assembly
process will take time. By setting aside plenty of
time, assembly will go smoothly.
• Assembly requires two people.
• For help identifying small parts, use the PART
IDENTIFICATION CHART.
Assembly may be require the included grease
and hex key
, and the following tools
(not included):
Before beginning assembly, carefully read the
following information and instructions:
• Two adjustable wrenches
• One rubber mallet
• Because of its weight and size, the weight sys-
tem should be assembled in the location where it
will be used. Make sure that there is enough
clearance to walk around the weight system.
• One standard screwdriver
• One Phillips screwdriver
• Place all parts in a cleared area and remove the
packing materials. Do not dispose of the packing
materials until assembly is completed.
• Clear tape or masking tape, and soapy water.
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.

important information about how to get the most benefit from your exercise program. Also, refer to the accom-
panying exercise guide to see the correct form for each exercise.
Make sure all parts are properly tightened each time the weight system is used. Replace any worn parts imme-
diately. The weight system can be cleaned with a damp cloth and a mild, non-abrasive detergent. Do not use
solvents.

EXERCISE GUIDELINES
THE FOUR BASIC TYPES OF WORKOUTS
PERSONALIZING YOUR EXERCISE PROGRAM
Muscle Building
To increase the size and strength of your muscles,
push them to a high percentage of their maximum
Determining the exact length of time for each workout,
as well as the number of repetitions or sets completed,
is an individual matter. It is important to avoid overdo-
capacity. Your muscles will adapt and grow as you pro- ing it during the first few months of your exercise pro-
gressively increase the intensity of your exercise. You
can adjust the intensity level of an individual exercise
in two ways:
• by changing the amount of weight 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 weight for each exercise
depends upon the individual user. You must gauge
Begin each workout with 5 to 10 minutes of stretching
your limits and select the amount of weight that is right and light exercise to warm up. Warming up prepares
for you. Begin with 3 sets of 8 repetitions for each
exercise you perform. Rest for 3 minutes after each
set. When you can complete 3 sets of 12 repetitions
without difficulty, increase the amount of weight.
your body for more strenuous exercise by increasing
circulation, raising your body temperature and deliver-
ing more oxygen to your muscles.
WORKING OUT
Toning
You can tone your muscles by pushing them to a mod- Each workout should include 6 to 10 different exercis-
erate percentage of their capacity. Select a moderate
amount of weight and increase the number of repeti-
tions in each set. Complete as many sets of 15 to 20
repetitions as possible without discomfort. Rest for 1
minute after each set. Work your muscles by complet-
ing more sets rather than by using high amounts of
weight.
es. Select exercises for every major muscle group,
emphasizing areas that you want to develop most. To
give balance and variety to your workouts, vary the
exercises from session to session.
Schedule your workouts for the time of day when your
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 weight 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 exercise cycle
or an elliptical exerciser, 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.
• Rest from both strength training and aerobic exercise The repetitions in each set should be performed
for at least one full day each week to give your body
time to regenerate.

Rest for a short period of time after each set. The
ideal resting periods are:
• Rest for three minutes after each set for a muscle
building workout.
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. List the
date, the exercises performed, the resistance used,
and the numbers of sets and repetitions completed.
Record your weight and key body measurements at
the end of every month. Remember, the key to achiev-
ing 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
