Make Assembly Easier for Yourself!
Everything in this manual isdesigned to
ensure that the home gym can be assembled
successfully by anyone. Before beginning
assembly, make sure to read the informa-
tion on this page; this brief introduction
will save you much more time than it takes
to read it!
Assembly Requires Two Persons
For your convenience and safety, assemble the
home gym with the help of another person.
Set Aside Enough Time
Due to the many features of the home gym, the
assembly process will require about six hours. By
setting aside plenty of time and by deciding to
make the task enjoyable, assembly will go smoothly.
You may want to assemble the home gym over a
couple of evenings.
Select a Location for the Home Gym
Because of its weight and size, the home gym
should be assembled in the location where it will be
used. Make sure that there is enough room to walk
around the home gym as you assemble it.
How to Unpack the Box
To make assembly as easy as possible, we have
divided the assembly process into four stages. The
parts needed for each stage are found in individual
bags. Important: Wait until you begin each stage
to open the part bag for that stage. Place all
parts of the home gym in a cleared area and
remove the packing materials. Do not dispose of
the packing materials until assembly is completed.
Make sure you have the following tools:
• Two (2) adjustable wrenches
• One (1) standard screwdriver
• One (1) phillips screwdriver
• One (1) rubber mallet
• You will also need grease or petroleum jelly, a
small amount of soapy water, and clear tape or
masking tape.
Note: 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.
How to Identify Parts
To help you identify the small parts used in assembly,
we have included a PART IDENTIFICATION CHART
in the center of this manual. Place the chart on the
floor and use it to easily identify parts during each
assembly step. Note: Some small parts may have
been pre-attached. If a part is not in the part bag,
check to see if it has been pre-attached,
How to Orient Parts
As you assemble the home gym, make sure that all
parts are oriented exactly as shown in the drawings.
Tightening Parts
Tighten all parts as you assemble them, unless
instructed to do otherwise.
Questions?
If you have questions after reading the assembly
instructions, please call our Customer Service
Department toll-free at 1-888-825-2588, Monday
through Friday, 6 a.m. until 6 p.m. Mountain Time.

57. Make sure that all parts have been properly tightened. The use of the remaining parts will be explained in
ADJUSTMENT, beginning on page 26 of this manual. Before using the home gym, 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 installed, they may
be damaged when heavy weight is used, If there is any slack in the cables, you will need to remove
the slack by tightening the cables, See TROUBLE-SHOOTING AND MAINTENANCE on page 27,
The chart below shows the approximate weight resistance at each exercise station. "Top" refers to the 6 lb. top
weight; the other numbers refer to the 10 lb. weight plates. Note: The actual resistance at each station may
vary due to differences in individual weight plates as well as friction between the cables, pulleys, and
weight guides.

The Cable Diagrams below and on the next page show the proper routing of the Butterfly Cable (73), the Ab
Cable (74), the Low Cable (75), and the Weight Cable (72). The numbers show the correct route for each Cable.
Make sure that the Cables are routed correctly, that the pulleys move smoothly, and that the cable traps
do not touch or bind the Cables. Incorrect cable routing can damage the weight system.

The instructions below describe how each part of the home gym can be adjusted. Refer to the decal on the
shroud to see how the home gym should be set up for each exercise. IMPORTANT: When using an attach-
ment, make sure it is in the correct starting position for the exercise to be performed. If there is any
slack in the cables or chain as an exercise is performed, the effectiveness of the exercise will be
reduced.
Attaching the Lat Bar, Row Bar, Nylon Strap or Ab
Strap to the Low Pulley Station, the High Pulley
Station, or the Ab Pulley Station.
Attach the Lat Bar (61) to the Low Cable (75) with a
Cable Clip (69). For some exercises, the Chain (67)
should be attached between the Lat Bar and the Low
Cable with two Cable Clips. Adjust the length of the
Chain between the Lat Bar and the Low Cable so the
Lat Bar is in the correct starting position for the exer-
cise to be performed,
The Row Bar (44), Nylon Strap (58), or Ab Strap (81) can
be attached in the same manner.
Use the same method for attaching any of the attach-
ments to the Ab Cable (74, not shown) at the High Pulley
Station or the Ab Pulley Station.

To adjust the Press Backrest (99), pull the Adjustment
Handle (85) and slide the Backrest in or out as needed.
Release the Adjustment Handle and let the tip snap into
one of the holes in the Adjustment Frame. Adjust the
Butterfly Seat (13, not shown) in the same manner.

Changing the Weight Setting
To change the setting of the weight stack, insert a Weight
Pin (19) under the desired Weight (21). Make sure you
insert the Weight Pin as far as it will go. Note: Due to the
cables and pulleys, the amount of resistance at each
exercise station may vary from the weight setting.
Use the WEIGHT RESISTANCE CHART on page 27 to
find the approximate amount of resistance at each
weight station,

Tightening the Cables
Woven cable, the type of cable used on the home gym, can
stretch slightly when it is first used. If there is slack in the
Cables before resistance is felt, the Cables should be tight-
ened.
Slack can be removed from the cables in several ways:
Remove the 3/8" x 4" Bolt (60), the 3/8" Flat Washer (48),
the Large Cable Trap (32), the "V"-Pulley (27) and the 3/8"
Nylon Locknut (50) from the Press Frame (8). Move the
Pulley and the Cable Trap to a hole that is closer to the
Press Upright (2). This will tighten the cable. Reattach the
"V"-Pulley assembly, the Bolt and the Nylon Locknut. Make
sure that the Cable Trap and Cable remain oriented as
shown.
The Adjustable Pulley Plates (23) have several sets of
adjustment holes. By moving one or both pulleys to a differ-
ent set of holes, you will tighten the cables.
To move one Pulley, remove the 3/8" Nylon Locknut (50)
and the 3/8" x 2" Bolt (54). Remove the Cable Trap (25) and
the Pulley (24) from the Adjustable Pulley Frame (23). Re-
attach the Pulley and the Cable Trap to the appropriate
adjustment hole in the Pulley Frame. Note: Begin by mov-
ing one Pulley to the second adjustment hole. If the
Cables are still too loose, move the same Pulley to the
third hole. If additional adjustment is needed, move the
second Pulley until the Cables are tight.

Note: For clarity, the Shroud is not shown. The Shroud
does not have to be removed to tighten the Cables.
The bolt at the end of the Weight Cable (72) is one of the
means for tightening the Cables. Use the following proce-
dure for tightening the Cables: Loosen the 1/2" Plain Nut
(100). Thread the bolt at the end of the Weight Cable into
the Weight Tube (17) until all Cables are tight and rest firmly
in the grooves of all Pulleys. Then tighten the 1/2" Plain Nut
(100) onto the 1/2" Washer (98).
Note: If a Cable tends to slip off the Pulleys often, the
Cable may have become twisted. Remove the Cable and
re-install it.
If the Cables need to be replaced, see ORDERING
REPLACEMENT PARTS on the back cover of this manual.
