Basic Assembly Principles

Here are a few basic assembly tips that can make your assembly of the Bowflex Ultimate quick and easy. By using

these principles, you can simplify the process and save yourself some extra time and effort.

1. When you are using a ratchet to tighten a locknut on a bolt, use a close-ended combination wrench to grip the

locknut. This will ensure that the locknut is fastened securely.

2. When you are having trouble placing a bolt between two separate pieces, you can get the bolt holes to line up by

gently lifting one of the pieces. You can also lift gently and look between the pieces for additional help guiding the

bolt through the holes.

3. You can make the assembly process go faster by gathering the pieces you need for each step prior to starting

the step.

4. As a general rule, and for all bolts and locknuts on your Bowflex Ultimate, turning toward the right will tighten,

turning toward the left will loosen. An easy way to remember this is by remembering the expression, "Lefty loosey,

righty tighty."

Tools You Will Need

You will need the following tools to complete the assembly of your Bowflex Ultimate. If you don't have these tools,

you can find them at any hardware or department store for a reasonable price.

•7/16" combination wrench

• 9/16" combination wrench

•An adjustable wrench

•A socket wrench set

•Phillips screw driver

• Flat blade screw driver

•Rubber mallet

• Utility Knife

• Scissors
