ASSEMBLY  
• For help identifying small parts, use the PART  
IDENTIFICATION CHART.  
Make Things Easier for Yourself  
Everything in this manual is designed to ensure  
that the resistance system can be assembled  
successfully by almost anyone. 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.  
Tighten all parts as you assemble them, unless  
instructed to do otherwise.  
To hire an authorized service technician to  
assemble the resistance system, call toll-free  
1-800-445-2480.  
The included hex key(s)  
and the following tools (not included) may be  
required for assembly:  
and grease,  
Before beginning assembly, carefully read the  
following information and instructions:  
• Two adjustable wrenches  
• One rubber mallet  
Assembly requires two people.  
• One standard screwdriver  
Because of its weight and size, the resistance  
system should be assembled in the location  
where it will be used. Make sure that there is  
enough clearance to walk around the resistance  
system as you assemble it.  
• One Phillips screwdriver  
• 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.  
Place all parts in a cleared area and remove the  
packing materials. Do not dispose of the packing  
materials until assembly is completed.

ADJUSTMENTS  
This section explains how to adjust the resistance system. See the EXERCISE GUIDELINES on page 16 for  
important information about how to get the most benefit from your exercise program. Also, refer to the accompa-  
nying exercise guide to see the correct form for each exercise.  
Make sure all parts are properly tightened each time the resistance system is used. Replace any worn parts  
immediately. The resistance system can be cleaned with a damp cloth and a mild, non-abrasive detergent. Do  
not use solvents.

ing an exercise that does not require it.  
ADJUSTING THE RESISTANCE  
To add resistance, hold a “U”-channel (18) firmly  
and push the end of a resistance bar under it.  
Repeat with the other end of the resistance bar. If  
more resistance is needed, add one resistance bar  
at a time.  
Note: When adding resistance, always start with the

Note: The resistance system uses progressive  
resistance. As the resistance bars begin to bend,  
the amount of resistance will increase gradually. As  
the resistance bars bend further, the resistance will  
increase rapidly.  
Additional resistance can be added to the  
resistance system. To purchase more resistance,  
call our Customer Service Department toll-free at  
the number of on the front cover of this manual and  
ask for model number PFMC0825 (100-pound Max

CABLE DIAGRAM  
The cable diagram shows the proper routing of the  
Long Cable (42). 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.

EXERCISE GUIDELINES  
THE FOUR BASIC TYPES OF WORKOUTS  
Warming Up—Begin each workout with 5–10 minutes  
of stretching and light exercise to warm up. Warming up  
prepares your body for more strenuous exercise by rais-  
ing your body temperature, increasing circulation, and  
delivering more oxygen to your muscles.  
Muscle Building—To increase muscle size, use a high  
amount of resistance. Your muscles will adapt and grow  
as you progressively increase the intensity of your exer-  
cise by:  
Working Out—Each workout should include 6–10 dif-  
ferent exercises. Select exercises for every major mus-  
cle group, emphasizing areas that you want to develop  
most. To give balance and variety to your workouts,  
vary the exercises from session to session.  
• changing the level of resistance  
• changing the number of repetitions or sets performed.  
(A “repetition” is one complete cycle of an exercise,  
such as one sit-up. A “set” is a series of repetitions.)  
The proper amount of resistance for each exercise  
depends upon the individual. You must gauge your lim-  
its and select the amount of resistance that is right for  
you. Begin with 3 sets of 8 repetitions for each exercise  
you perform. When you can complete 3 sets of 12 rep-  
etitions without difficulty, increase the amount of resist-  
ance. Rest for 3 minutes after each set.  
Schedule your workouts for the time of day when your  
energy level is the highest. Each workout should be fol-  
lowed by at least one day of rest. Once you find the  
right schedule for you, stick with it.  
Exercise Form—Maintaining proper form is an essen-  
tial part of an effective exercise program. This requires  
moving through the full range of motion for each exer-  
cise, and moving only the appropriate parts of the body.  
Exercising in an uncontrolled manner will leave you feel-  
ing exhausted. The exercise guide show the correct  
form for several exercises and describes how to per-  
form the exercise.  
Toning—Tone your muscles by using a moderate  
amount of resistance and increasing the number of rep-  
etitions in each set. Complete as many sets of 15–20  
repetitions as possible without discomfort. Rest for 1  
minute after each set.  
Weight Loss—To lose weight, use a low amount of  
resistance and increase the number of repetitions in  
each set. Exercise for 20–30 minutes, resting for a max-  
imum of 30 seconds between sets.  
The repetitions in each set should be performed  
smoothly and without pausing. A repetition’s exertion  
stage should last about half as long as the return stroke.  
Proper breathing is important. Exhale during the exer-  
tion stage of each repetition and inhale during the return  
stroke. Never hold your breath. Rest for a short period  
of time after each set. The time depends on which type  
of workout you are performing (see THE FOUR BASIC  
TYPES OF WORKOUTS).  
Cross Training—Cross training is an efficient way to  
get a complete and well-balanced fitness program. An  
example of a balanced program is:  
• Strength training workouts on Monday, Wednesday,  
and Friday.  
• 20–30 minutes of aerobic exercise, such as riding an  
exercise cycle or running on a treadmill, on Tuesday  
and Thursday.  
Plan to spend the first couple of weeks familiarizing  
yourself with the equipment and learning the proper  
form for each exercise.  
• Rest from both strength training and aerobic exercise  
for at least one full day each week to give your body  
time to regenerate.  
Cooling Down—End each workout with 5–10 minutes  
of stretching. Include stretches for both your arms and  
legs. Move 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.  
PERSONALIZING YOUR EXERCISE PROGRAM  
Determining the right length of time for each workout, as  
well as the number of repetitions and sets completed, is  
an individual matter. It is important to avoid overdoing it  
during the first few months of your exercise program.  
You should progress at your own pace and be sensitive  
to your body’s signals. If you experience pain or dizzi-  
ness at any time while exercising, stop immediately and  
begin cooling down. Find out what is wrong before con-  
tinuing. Remember that adequate rest and a proper diet  
are important factors in any exercise program.  
Staying Motivated—For motivation, keep a record of  
each workout. List the date, the exercises performed,  
the resistance used, and the numbers of sets and repe-  
titions 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.
