Safety Guidelines and Practices

Read the Owner’s Manual carefully before assembling, servicing, or using the equipment.

Owner must comply with all safety guidelines in this manual. It is also the owner’s responsibility to

instruct users on the safe and proper operation of the equipment and to properly display any and

all warning labels and instructional placards. All users should read these labels and placards before

using equipment.

WARNING

Death or serious injury could occur if the

following safety precautions and instructions are

not followed.

Anchoring Equipment

Owner should not allow equipment to be used until it is properly anchored

as described below.

To maximize stability and eliminate rocking, tipping, or falling over,

equipment must be anchored to a solid, level surface, utilizing all

anchoring holes provided.

Fasteners must have a minimum of 500 lbs. tensile capacity. Cybex

recommends .3/8” grade 2 bolts or better. A minimum pull force of

220 lbs/100 kgs is required for each anchor position.

If leg frames do not contact surface,

DO NOT pull down with anchors.

Shim any leg or frame not in contact with surface using flat washers.

Due to the wide variation of flooring on which machines may be anchored

or installed, consult with a qualified and licensed contractor to ensure

proper anchoring and installation.

Facility Safety Precautions

Do not allow anyone, including trainers, to use equipment in a manner other than that shown on the

warning labels and instructional placards located on every machine.
Do not install equipment on an uneven surface. The solid, level surface should not deviate more than

1/8” over a 10’ distance or as defined and required by local building and architectural codes.
