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 anyone. However, it is important to  
realize that the versatile weight 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.  
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.

ADJUSTMENTS, below.  
Before using the weight system, 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 routed, they may be damaged when heavy weight is used. See the CABLE  
DIAGRAM on page 17 of this manual for proper cable routing. If there is any slack in the cables, you  
will need to remove it by tightening the cables; see TIGHTENING THE CABLES on page 15.  
ADJUSTMENTS  
This section explains how to adjust the weight system. See the EXERCISE GUIDELINES on page 18 for impor-  
tant information about how to get the most benefit from your exercise program. Also, refer to the accompanying  
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 immediate-  
ly. The weight system can be cleaned with a damp cloth and a mild, non-abrasive detergent. Do not use solvents.  
ATTACHING THE ACCESSORIES TO A PULLEY  
STATION  
Attach the Lat Bar (42) to the High Cable (45) with a  
Cable Clip (52). For some exercises, the Chain (not  
shown) should be attached between the Lat Bar and  
45  
the High Cable with two Cable Clips. Adjust the  
length of the Chain between the Lat Bar and the  
Short Cable so the Lat Bar is in the correct start-  
ing position for the exercise to be performed.

ADDING WEIGHTS TO THE WEIGHT CARRIAGE  
To add resistance to the weight system, slide an equal  
amount of weight (not included) onto each side of the  
weight tube on the Weight Carriage (14). Be sure that  
the weights are pushed against the weight stops. Note:  
Due to the cables and pulleys, the actual amount of  
resistance at each exercise station may vary from  
the amount of weight used. Use the WEIGHT

system, 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 by moving a 90mm Pulley (38)  
and Cable Trap (44) to a set of holes closer to the  
center of the two Pulley Plates (36). Remove the M10  
Nylon Locknut (71) and the M10 x 47mm Bolt (61)  
from the Cable Trap, the Pulley, and the Pulley  
Plates. Re-attach the Pulley and the Cable Trap to  
the new set of holes in the Pulley Plates with the Bolt  
and Nylon Locknut. Make sure that the Cable Trap  
is in the proper position and that the Cable and  
Pulley move smoothly.

WEIGHT RESISTANCE CHART  
This chart shows the approximate weight resistance at each weight station. The column labeled “WEIGHT”  
refers to the amount of weight, in pounds, placed on the weight carriage. The weight resistance shown for the  
butterfly arm station is for each butterfly arm. Note: The actual resistance at each station may vary due to  
friction between the cables, pulleys, and weight carriage.

CABLE DIAGRAMS  
The cable diagrams below show the proper routing of the Butterfly Cable (46), the High Cable (45), and the Low  
Cable (47). Use the diagrams to make sure that the cables and the cable traps have been assembled correctly.  
If the cables have not been correctly routed, the weight system will not function properly and damage may occur.  
The numbers show the correct route for each cable. Make sure that the cable traps do not touch or bind the  
cables.

EXERCISE GUIDELINES  
THE FOUR BASIC TYPES OF WORKOUTS  
PERSONALIZING YOUR EXERCISE PROGRAM  
Muscle Building  
To increase the size and strength of your muscles,

as well as the number of repetitions or sets completed,

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 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 weight training workouts on Monday,  
Wednesday, and Friday.  
• Plan 20 to 30 minutes of aerobic exercise, such as  
cycling or swimming, on Tuesday and Thursday.  
• Rest from both weight training and aerobic exercise  
for at least one full day each week to give your body  
time to regenerate.  
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 page  
19 to find the names of the muscles.  
The repetitions in each set should be performed  
smoothly and without pausing. The exertion stage of  
each repetition should last about half as long as the  
return stage. Proper breathing is important. Exhale

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 weight 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  
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
