WARNING:
To reduce the risk of serious injury, read the following important precautions
before using the weight bench.
Important Precautions
1. Read all instructions in this manual before
using the weight bench. Use the weight
bench only as described in this manual.
2. It is the responsibility of the owner to ensure
that all users of the weight bench are ade-
quately informed of all precautions.
3. The weight bench is intended for home use
only. Do not use the weight bench in any
commercial, rental or institutional setting.
4. Use the weight bench only on a level surface.
Cover the floor beneath the weight bench for
protection.
5. Inspect and tighten all parts each time you
use the weight bench. Replace any worn
parts immediately.
6. Keep children under 12 and pets away from
the weight bench at all times.
7. Keep hands and feet away from moving
parts.
8. Always wear athletic shoes for foot protec-
tion while exercising.
9. Always make sure there is an equal amount
of weight (not included) on each side of your
barbell (not included).
10. If you feel pain or dizziness at any time while
exercising, stop immediately and begin cool-
ing down.
11. The weight bench is designed to support a
maximum of 560 pounds, including the user,
a barbell and weights. Do not place more
than 310 pounds, including the barbell, on
the weight rests. Do not place more than 150
pounds on the weight carriage. Do not place
more than 150 pounds on the leg lever for
normal use.
12. Make sure that the cable remains on the pul-
leys at all times. If the cable binds as you are
exercising, stop immediately and make sure
that the cable is on the pulleys.
13. Check the cables periodically to make sure
that they are tight. See assembly step 12 on
page 10 for cable tightening instructions.
14. Always set both weight rests and both safety
spotters at the same height.
15. Always exercise with a partner. When you
are performing bench press exercises or toe
raise exercises, your partner should stand
behind you to catch the barbell if you cannot
complete a repetition.
16. Always disconnect the lat bar from the
weight bench when performing an exercise
that does not use the lat bar.
17. Always secure weights with the included
weight clips when they are mounted on a
barbell, the leg lever, or the weight carriage.
