Tightening the Cables

Woven cable, the type of cable used on the home gym
system, can stretch slightly when it is first used. If there is
slack in the Cables before resistance is felt, the Cables
should be tightened.

Slack can be removed by moving one or both of the
3 1/2Ó Pulleys (24) attached to the Adjustable Pulley
Frame (23).

To move one Pulley, unscrew the 3/8Ó Nylon Locknut (50)
and the 3/8Ó x 2Ó Bolt (54). Remove the Cable Trap (25)
and Pulley (24) from the Adjustable Pulley Frame (23).
Re-attach the Pulley and Cable Trap to the appropriate
adjustment hole in the Pulley Frame.

Note: Begin by moving 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.

The Cables can also be tightened by adjusting the bolt at
the end of the Low Cable (72). To do this, the Shrouds
(35, 36, not shown) must be removed. Follow assembly
steps 45 to 47 in the opposite order to remove the
Shrouds.

When the Shrouds have been removed, insert the Weight
Pin (19, not shown) between the third and the fourth
Weight (21), counting from the top. See ÒChanging the
Weight SettingÓ on page 20 for instructions on moving the
Weight Pin.

Loosen the 1/2Ó Plain Nut (68) securing the bolt at the
end of the Low Cable (72). Tighten the bolt a couple of
turns into the Weight Tube (17) until the Cables feel
tighter. Tighten the Plain Nut to prevent the bolt from turn-
ing.

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.
