Make sure that all parts have been properly tightened. The use of all remaining parts will be explained in ADJUSTMENTS, below. Before using the weight system, pull each cable a few times to make sure that the cables move smoothly over the pulleys. If one of the cables does not move smoothly, find and correct the problem.
ADDING WEIGHTS TO THE WEIGHT CARRIAGE To add resistance to the weight system, slide an equal amount of weight (not included) onto each side of the weight tube on the Weight Carriage (14). Be sure that the weights are pushed against the weight stops. Note: Due to the cables and pulleys, the actual amount of resistance at each exercise station may vary from the amount of weight used. Use the WEIGHT RESISTANCE CHART on page 16 to find the approximate amount of resistance at each station.
WEIGHT RESISTANCE CHART This chart shows the approximate weight resistance at each weight station. The column labeled “WEIGHT” refers to the amount of weight, in pounds, placed on the weight carriage. The weight resistance shown for the butterfly arm station is for each butterfly arm. Note: The actual resistance at each station may vary due to friction between the cables, pulleys, and weight carriage. WEIGHT PRESS ARM BUTTERFLY LOW PULLEY LEG LEVER HIGH PULLEY ARM (lbs.) (lbs.)

CABLE DIAGRAMS The cable diagrams below show the proper routing of the Butterfly Cable (46), the High Cable (45), and the Low Cable (47). Use the diagrams to make sure that the cables and the cable traps have been assembled correctly. If the cables have not been correctly routed, the weight system will not function properly and damage may occur. The numbers show the correct route for each cable. Make sure that the cable traps do not touch or bind the cables.
EXERCISE GUIDELINES THE FOUR BASIC TYPES OF WORKOUTS PERSONALIZING YOUR EXERCISE PROGRAM MUSCLE BUILDING To increase the size and strength of your muscles, push them close to their maximum capacity. Your muscles will continually adapt and grow as you progressively increase the intensity of your exercise. You can adjust the intensity level of an individual exercise in two ways: • by changing the amount of resistance used • by changing the number of repetitions or sets performed.
Rest for a short period of time after each set. The ideal resting periods are: • Rest for three minutes after each set for a muscle building workout. • Rest for one minute after each set for a toning workout. • Rest for 30 seconds after each set for a weight loss workout. Plan to spend the first couple of weeks familiarizing yourself with the equipment and learning the proper form for each exercise. slowly as you stretch and do not bounce.
