Safety & Warranty
1. Frame Construction: Frame is constructed of mechanical quality steel purchased in mill run quantities. Frame is primarily 2 1/2" x 4 1/2" oval shaped
tubing and 5 1/4” x 3 3/4” “D” shaped tubing with 11 gauge wall thickness.
2. Frame Finish: The frames are coated with an electrostatic epoxy powder coat finish.
3. Bolts: Most hardware is metric and has a corrosion resistant finish. Grade 5 or greater in strength.
4. Hand Grips: Hand grips are an extruded 60-durometer-thermorubber compound that is non-absorbing, wear and tear resistant, and exhibits good dry
and wet frictional characteristics. The grips are retained with aluminum collars, which eliminates the tendency of the grips to slide off the handle.
5. Equipment Anchoring: All machines have holes in the feet, these allow easy anchoring to the floor. Life Fitness recommends that all machines be
anchored to the floor to minimize the possibility of tipping.
6. Liability Insurance: Certificate of insurance available upon request.

11. Adjust the machine so the measured distance between inside faces of the LIFT BAR RACKS
(A), both top and bottom, is 48 13/16 to 49 5/16 inches (123.98 to 125.25 cm). Tighten all
BOLTS and NUTS securely.

14. Cycle the LIFT BAR up and down. There must not be any banging of the COUNTER-WEIGHTS
located inside the large front tubes at either the top or the bottom of the cycle.
The Product MUST pass BOTH of the following criteria:
A. With the LIFT BAR at its topmost position (CARRIAGES against BUMP STOPS) both
CABLES need to be in tension.
19
If the cable is not tensioned, screw the loose CABLE into ROD END until the
cable is taut. Re-cycle the lift bar and recheck the cable tension. When cable is
18
properly tensioned, proceed to criteria B.
22
10
B. Position the LIFT BAR at its bottommost position (LIFT BAR and BAR STOPS not
20
engaging LIFT BAR RACKS). Be sure both BAR STOPS are resting on the SIDE
FRAMES and both CARRIAGES are resting on the BAR STOPS.
21
Ensure that the cable is not too tight by slight pulling down on the CABLE while
holding the LIFT BAR firmly at its bottommost position. The cable should move
slightly; approximately ¼ to ½ inch.
If the cable is too tight, unscrew the tight CABLE out of the ROD END making
sure a minimum of three threads are engaged.
C. If both above criteria cannot be satisfied,
see Counterweight Cable Adjustment.

Counterweight Cable Adjustment
If the CABLE is still too tight after maximum ROD END adjustment, the CABLE END on the COUNTER-
WEIGHT side will need to be adjusted. Adjusting the CABLE END on COUNTERWEIGHT should be done in
the following manner:
21
1) Remove one M10 X 40mm BOLT (21), one ROD END SPACER (22), and one M10 HEX NYLOCK NUT
(10) from each of the CARRIAGES (13 & 15). Holding the ROD END (20) firmly, slowly lower the
COUNTERWEIGHT (a) until it reached bottom.
2) Remove the two M10 X 20mm BOLTS (b) from the TOP D-TUBE CAP (c) and remove the cap.

and remove the BRACKET through the top of the machine.
5) Pull the CABLE until the top of the COUNTERWEIGHT (a) is just above the top of the D-TUBE.
Prop the COUNTERWEIGHT to prevent it from sliding into the D-TUBE.
o
n
e
b
f
CAUTION: DO NOT PULL COUNTERWEIGHT COMPETELY OFF OF GUIDE RODS (m).
a

6) Loosen the JAM NUT (n) on top of the COUNTERWEIGHT (a) and thread the CABLE END (o) in (if
CABLE is too long) or out (if CABLE is too short). Retighten the JAM NUT.
j
h
7) Guide the COUNTERWEIGHT (a) down the GUIDE RODS (m) until it reaches the bottom.
