performance of the machine, adjust the Chain so the Selector Stem (Top Plate) on  
the weight stack is ¼” above the first plate. While adjusting the weight stack, push  
down on the Selector Stem to close up the gap then pin the plates. This will remove  
the slag in the cable system so the range of motion is smooth and tight.
