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.
An Allen wrench (included) and 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.

TIGHTENING THE CABLES
A
Woven cable, the type of cable used on 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.

See drawing A. Slack can be removed by moving the
90mm Pulley (38) and Cable Trap (91) to a higher set
of holes in a Double “U”-Bracket (56). Remove the
M10 Nylon Locknut (70) and the M10 x 50mm Bolt (62)
from the Cable Trap, the Pulley, and the Double “U”-
Bracket. Re-attach the Pulley and the Cable Trap to
the new set of holes in the Double “U”-Bracket with the
Bolt and Locknut. Make sure that the Cable Trap is
in the proper position and that the Cable and
Pulley move smoothly.

adjust the intensity level of an individual exercise in
two ways:

• 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.

circulation, raising your body temperature and deliver-
ing more oxygen to your muscles.

You can tone your muscles by pushing them to a mod- Each workout should include 6 to 10 different exercis-

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
27 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

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
