Before using the resistance system, pull the long cable a few times to be sure that it moves smoothly over
the pulleys. If the cable does net move smoothly, find and correct the problem. IMPORTANT: If the cables
are not properly installed, they may be damaged when heavy resistance is used. See the CABLE
DIAGRAM on page 16 for proper cable routing.

12

ADJUSTMENTS
This section explains how to adjust the resistance system. See the EXERCISE GUIDELINES on page 17 for
important information about how to get the most benefit from your exercise program. Also, refer to the accompanying exercise guide to see the correct form for each exercise.
Make sure all parts are properly tightened each time you use the resistance system. Replace worn parts immediately. The resistance system can be cleaned with a damp cloth and a mild, non-abrasive detergent. Do not use
solvents. The crossbows can be cleaned with a vinyl and rubber protectant, available at an automotive or department store.

13

45

To perform row exercises, the leg press strap must be
attached to the long cable (see ATTACHING THE
ACCESSORIES, on page 14), and the Seat Carriage
(12) must be able to roll along the Bench Rail (5).
First, remove the Backrest (14) from the Seat
Carriage (see ADJUSTING THE BACKREST on page
15). Then, pull the Seat Knob (45) out as far as it will
go, and turn the Knob so that the pin rests at the end
of the "L"-shaped slot (see the inset drawing).

12

13

ATTACHING THE ACCESSORIES
To attach a Short Handle (49) to a high pulley, first
attach the high pulley to the resistance system (see
A'FI-ACHING THE HIGH PULLEYS AND LEG LEVER
on page 13). Then, attach the Short Handle to the
Short Cable (33) with a Cable Clip (51).
The Long Handles (not shown) and the Ankle Strap
(net shown) can be attached to the Long Cable (80)
with Cable Clips (51). Attach the Leg Press Strap (not
shown) to both ends of the Long Cable, or the Lat Bar
(not shown) to the Short Cables (33), with two Cable
Clips.

ADJUSTING THE RESISTANCE
To add resistance, hold a "U"-channel on the 10pound Center Crossbow (44) firmly and push the end
of a crossbow under it. Repeat with the other end of
the crossbow. If more resistance is needed, add one
crossbow at a time.
Note: When adding resistance, always start with the
heaviest crossbow to be used, and finish with the
lightest crossbow. When removing crossbows from
the "U"-channels, start with the lightest crossbow and
finish with the heaviest.

Crossbows

Note: The CrossBow by WELDER ADVANTAGE uses
progressive resistance. As the crossbows begin to
bend, the amount of resistance will increase gradually. As the crossb-Sws bend further, the resistance will
increase rapidly.
TM

Additional resistance can be added to the resistance
system. To purchase more resistance, call our
Customer Service Department toll-free at 1-800-9993756 and asking for model number WEMC06420
(100-Pound Power Pak) or WEMC09420 (200-Pound
Power Pak).

14

ADJUSTING THE BACKREST
The Backrest (14) can be used in a level position or
one of three inclined positions. To use the Backrest in
a level position, secure the Seat Carriage (12) to the
adjustment hole in the Bench Rail (5) next to the Front
Leg (6) (see ADJUSTING THE SEAT on page 13).

14

To use the Backrest (14) in an inclined position,
secure the Seat Frame (12) to one of the other three
adjustment holes in the Bench Rail (5). Rest the
Backrest against the Upright (3).
For row exercises, remove the Backrest (14). Hold
the Backrest vedically over the Seat (13) and lift the
rod out of the slot in the Seat Carriage (12) (see the
inset drawing).
12

STORING THE RESISTANCE SYSTEM
To store the resistance system, slide the ends of the
Leg Lever Cable (32) onto the hook on the bottom of
the Bench Rail (5). Be sure the Seat (13) is in the
position closest to the Front Leg (6) (see ADJUSTING
THE SEAT on page 13). Next, remove the Storage
Knob (30) from the Upright (3). Lift the Front Leg
toward the Lat Tower Crossbar (10), and tighten the
Storage Knob into the side of the Upright and the
Bench Rail. Remove all of the crossbows from the
"U"-channels on the 10-pound Center Crossbow (44)
(see ADJUSTING THE RESISTANCE on page 14).
Finally, loosen the Fulcrum Knob (43) and pull it out
as far as it will go. Turn the crossbow assembly vertically and engage the Fulcrum Knob into the fulcrum
on the Lat Tower (4). Note: Storing the crossbows
vertically will prolong the life of the crossbows,
To move the resistance system, place the toe of your
shoe on the end of the Base (1) and hold the resistance system in the indicated area. Tilt the resistance
system back onto the Wheels (31) and roll it to the
new location. Be careful not to let the Front Leg (6)
or Leg Lever (7) pinch your hands when you tilt
the system back.

EXERCISE GUIDELINES
THE FOUR BASIC TYPES OF WORKOUTS

PERSONALIZING

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. (A "repetition" is one complete cycle of an
exercise, such as one sit-up. A "set" is a series of
repetitions.)

Determining the exact length of time for each workout,
as well as the number of repetitions or sets completed,
is an individual matter. It is important to avoid overdoing it during the first few months of your exercise program. You should progress at your own pace and be
sensitive to your body's signals. If you experience pain
or dizziness at any time while exercising, stop immediately and begin cooling down. Find out what is wrong
before continuing. Remember that adequate rest and a
proper diet are important factors in any exercise program.

YOUR EXERCISE PROGRAM

WARMING UP
The proper amount of resistance for each exercise
depends upon the individual user. You must gauge
your limits and select the amount of resistance that is
right for you. Begin with 3 sets of 8 repetitions for each
exercise you perform. Rest for 3 minutes after each
set. When you can complete 3 sets of 12 repetitions
without difficulty, increase the amount of resistance.

Begin each workout with 5 to 10 minutes of stretching
and light exercise to warm up. Warming up prepares
your body for more strenuous exercise by increasing
circulation, raising your body temperature and delivering more oxygen to your muscles.

You can tone your muscles by pushing them to a moderate percentage of their capacity. Select a moderate
amount of resistance and increase the number of repetitions in each set. Complete as many sets of 15 to
20 repetitions as possible without discomfort. Rest for
1 minute after each set. Work your muscles by completing more sets rather than by using high amounts of
resistance.
Weight Loss
To lose weight, use a low amount of resistance and
increase the number of repetitions in each set.
Exercise for 20 to 30 minutes, resting for a maximum
of 30 seconds between sets.

Each workout should include 6 to 10 different exercises. Select exercises for every major muscle group,
emphasizing areas that you want to develop most. To
give balance and variety to your workouts, vary the
exercises from session to session.
Schedule your workouts for the time of day when your
energy level is the highest. Each workout should be
followed by at least one day of rest. Once you find the
schedule that is right for you, stick with it.
EXERCISE FORM
Maintaining proper form is an essential part of an
effective exercise program. This requires moving
through the full range of motion for each exercise, and
moving only the appropriate parts of the body.
Exercising in an uncontrolled manner will leave you
feeling exhausted. On the exercise guide accompanying this manual you will find photographs ,_howing the
correct form for several exercises, and a list of the
muscles affected. Refer to the muscle chart on page
18 to find the names of the muscles.

Cross Training
Cross training is an efficient way to get a complete and
well-balanced fitness program. An example of a balanced program is:
• Plan strength training workouts on Monday,
Wednesday, and Friday.
• Plan 20 to 30 minutes of aerobic exercise, such as
running on a treadmill or riding on an elliptical or
exercise bike, on Tuesday and Thursday.
• Rest from both strength training and aerobic exercise
for at least one full day each week to give your body
time to regenerate.

The repetitions in each set should be performed
smoothly and without pausing. The exertion stage of
each repetition should last about half as long as the
return stage. Proper breathing is important. Exhale
during the exertion stage of each repetition and inhale
during the return stroke. Never hold your breath.

The combination of strength training and aerobic exercise will reshape and strengthen your body, plus develop your heart and lungs.

slowly as you stretch and do not bounce. Ease into
each stretch gradually and go only as far as you can
without strain. Stretching at the end of each workout
is an effective way to increase flexibility.

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.

STAYING MOTIVATED
For motivation, keep a record of each workout. The
chart on page 19 of this manual can be photocopied
and used to schedule and record your workouts. List
the date, the exercises performed, the resistance
used, and the numbers of sets and repetitions completed. Record your weight and key body measurements at the end of every month. Remember, the key
to achieving the greatest results is to make exercise a
regular and enjoyable part of your everyday life.

COOLING DOWN
End each workout with 5 to 10 minutes of stretching.
Include stretches for both your arms and legs. Move
