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.

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. Do not use a barbell (not included) longer
than five feet with the weight bench.
10. Always make sure there is an equal amount
of weight on each side of your barbell.
11. The weight bench is designed to support a
maximum of 360 pounds, including the user,
a barbell and weights. Do not place more
than 110 pounds, including a barbell and
weights, on the weight rests. Do not place
more than 110 pounds on the weight carriage.
Do not place more than 50 pounds on the leg
lever for normal use. The leg lever can sup-
port 100 pounds when stationary.
12. When using the backrest, make sure the sup-
port tube is fully inserted into the adjustment
brackets on the uprights.
13. Always remove the lat tower or curl post
from the front leg before performing leg curl
or leg extension exercises with the leg lever
(see page 11).
14. When performing an exercise during which
you are sitting on the bench with your back
to the lat tower, make sure there is plenty of
space between your back and the weight car-
riage. Always lower the weight carriage in a
controlled manner. Never let the weight car-
riage drop.
15. Always set both weight rests at the same
height. The large threaded knob must always
be inserted through both the weight rest and
upright and firmly tightened. Never tighten
the knob into an upright and then set a
weight rest in the upright on top of the knob.
16. If you feel pain or dizziness at any time while
exercising, stop immediately and begin cool-
ing down.
17. When you are using the leg lever, place a
barbell (not included) with the same amount
of weight on the weight rests to balance the
bench.
18. When you are changing weights, always
secure the barbell with the barbell hooks to
help prevent it from falling off the bench.
