Exercise
General Exercise Information
Intended Use
The intended commercial use of this machine is to aid exercise and improve general physical fitness. Multiple exercises can be
performed using this product. It is the responsibility of the owner to ensure exercisers understand general use and only perform
recommended exercises that do not compromise the stability of the product or put the user as risk.
Prior to Exercise
Prior to starting a training program, get a complete physical exam to make sure your physician agrees that you are ready. Always
warm-up your muscles before a workout. A cardio warm-up followed by stretching is typically recommended.
Start Your Program Conservatively
Choose weights you can easily in the first several weeks. Typically, a full range of motion is recommended, but consult a qualified
professional if you have questions about whether a full range of motion is appropriate for you due to existing limitations, injury or
discomfort. Injuries to health may result from incorrect or excessive training.
A “repetition” (rep) is defined as one complete movement through an exercise, returning to the start position. A “set” is a continuous
series of reps, usually between 6-15. During your workout the number of reps you perform in a set depends on your goal. To build
muscle and strength, fewer reps (6 - 8) with heavier weight is recommended in each set. To build endurance, more reps (12-15)
with lighter weight is typically recommended.
At the end of your workout, cool down in a similar way to your warm-up.

Bolt to Floor Guide
Introduction
Cybex designs its products to be stable when used as designed. Because strength training is dynamic, we cannot predict how users will
ultimately use the products in all circumstances. Therefore, Cybex recommends that strength training equipment be secured to a solid,
level surface to stabilize and eliminate rocking or tipping over.
Each new unit shipped comes with a multi-language hangtag stating the importance of bolting the unit down as a safety precaution.
It is the facility’s responsibility to adhere to local and regional building codes.
Delivery and Installation Tips
All Anchors
• Fasteners must have minimum embedment in concrete floor, not including screed, regardless of wood/tile/rubber over sub-floor.
(See Anchor Types for maximum sub-floor thickness between unit and concrete to equipment foot must be made of flooring or
other material (i.e. no air gaps)).
• DO NOT reuse fasteners. Static and Dynamic anchors are designed for one-time use only.
• Factor in equipment’s feet height when selecting fastener length.
• Factor in flooring thickness when selecting fastener length.
• It is also recommended to drill an additional 1/2” (12.7 mm) of depth beyond the length of the fastener being used to ensure that
debris does not block the entry of the anchor.
• Minimum concrete compressive strength: 3000 psi (20 N/mm2).
Anchoring
• All anchors must have a minimum embedment into concrete, regardless of wood/tile/rubber/screed over sub-floor.
• Dynamic anchors must have a minimum embedment depth in concrete to ensure maximum security and pull out force. See Anchor
Types for embedment depth minimums.
Building Codes
It is the facility’s responsibility to adhere to local and regional building codes. Please verify with the customer to ensure that they are
aware of this.
Carpeting
If bolted down to carpet flooring, be sure to use a box cutter knife to cut the carpet threads around each foot. This will help avoid the
carpet threads from being wrapped around and pulled by the drill bit.
Competitor Product
The bolt down guidelines and procedures for Cybex products were determined by the company’s Engineering and Installation
Development groups. These guidelines include which anchors to use and positioning of the anchors are required for Cybex product.
• Cybex does not have that level of specification or engineering input for competitive product.
• Cybex installation teams are not permitted to anchor competitor equipment.
Drilling
It is also recommended to drill an additional 1/2” (12.7 mm) of depth beyond the length of the fastener being used to ensure that
debris does not block the entry of the anchor.
• This can be done by marking your drill bit with a piece of tape.
• While it is recommended that a vacuum be used to clean up debris, this will not account for all the debris that will settle at the
bottom of the drilled hole.

• 1/4" x 12" (6mm x 305mm) carbide drill bit (for 1/4” (6mm)
anchors)
• 3/8" x 12" (8mm x 305mm) carbide drill bit (for 3/8” (8mm)
anchors)
• Safety glasses
• Extension cord
• Impact wrench
• Vacuum (for debris)

Static Anchor Procedure
CAUTION: If it is possible that the length of your bolt will not provide the minimum requirement of 2.5” (63.5mm) of
engagement, a longer anchor should be used.
1. Place unit into position to be mounted and cycle unit to set stance.
2. Each foot must get at least one static fastener.
3. Wearing protective glasses, drill down into the flooring to the required depth as perpendicular as possible, ensuring that the foot
thickness is being accounted for; refer to Anchor Selection and Foot Dimensions.
4. Insert fastener and tighten to 18 Foot-Pounds (24Nm) for 1/4” (6mm) anchor or 40 Foot-Pounds (54Nm) for 3/8” (8mm) anchor.
NOTE: If the legs/frame do not contact the mounting surface DO NOT pull down with the fastener or anchor. Loosen frame
hardware and re-tighten to allow machine to align.
