ADJUSTMENTS, starting on the following page.
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. IMPORTANT: If
the cables are not properly routed, they may be damaged when heavy weight is used. See the CABLE
DIAGRAM on pages 24 and 25 of this manual for proper cable routing. If there is any slack in the
_dde_, yea will ,treed to remove it by tightening the cables; see _TENING THE C_IISI.ES o_tpage

ADJUSTMENTS
This section explains how to adjust the weight system. See the EXERCISE GUIDELINES on page 26 for impor-
tant 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 propedy tightened each time the weight system is used. Replace any worn parts immediate-
ly. The weight system can be cleaned with a damp cloth and a mild, non-abrasive detergent. Do not use solvents.
ATTACHING THE ACCESSORIES TO A PULLEY
STATION
Attach the Lat Bar (42) to the High Cable (45) with a
Cable Clip (52). For some exercises, the Chain (not
shown) should be attached between the [.at Bar and
the High Cable with two Cable Clips. Adjust the
length of the Chain between the Lat Bar and the
High Cable so the Lat Bar is in the correct start-
ing position for the exercise to be performed.
The Handle (not shown) and Ab Strap (not shown)
can be attached in the same rammer. The acces-
sories can be attached to the Low Cable (not shown)
in the same manner.
CHANGING THE WEIGHT SETTING
To change the weight setting of the weight stack,
insert the Weight Pin (86) under the desired Weight
(72). Be sure to insert the Weight Pin until the bent
end of the Weight Pin is touching the Weights, and
turn the bent end downward. The weight setting of the
weight stack can be changed from 6 pounds to 106
pounds, in increments of 12.5 pounds. Note: Due to
the cables and pulleys, the actual amount of
resistance at each exercise station may vary from
the weight setting. Use the WEIGHT RESISTANCE
CHART on page 23 to find the actual amount of
resistance at each weight station.
CONVERTING THE BUTTERFLY ARMS
To use the ButterflyArms (10, 11) as butterfly arms,
insert the Locking Pins (53) into the butterfly holes in
the Right Upright (6).
To use the Butterfly Arms (10, 11) as press arms,
insert the Locking Pins (53) into the press holes in the
Butterfly Frame (9).
Make sure that the Locking Pins (53) are fully
inserted into the same set of holes before per-
forming any exercises.

ADJUSTING THE CABLE TENSION
Woven cable, the type of cable used on the weight
system, can stretchslightlywhen it is first used. If there
is slack in the cables before resistance is felt, the
cables should be tightened.
See drawing A. Slack can be removed by moving the
3 1/2" Pulley (38) and Cable Trap (91) to a higher set
of holes in a Double "U"-Bracket (56). Remove the 318"
Nylon Locknut (70) and the 3/8" x 2" Bolt (62) from the
Cable Trap, the Pulley,and the Double "U"-Bracket.
Re-attach the Pulley and the Cable Trap to the new set
of holes in the Double "U"-Brecket with the Bolt and
Locknut. Make sure that the Cable Trap is in the
proper position and that the Cable and Pulley
move smoothly.
Move the 3 112" Pulley (38) in the other Double "U"-
Bracket (56) in the same manner.
See drawing B. Slack can be removed by moving the
3 112"Pulley (38) and the Cable Trap (91) to the higher
set of holes in a "U"-Bracket (85). Remove the 3/8"
Nylon Locknut (70) and the 3/8" x 2" Bo|t(62) from the
Cable Trap, the Pulley, and the "U"-Bracket. Re-attach
the Pulley and the Cable Trap to the higher set of holes
in the "U"-Bracket withthe Bolt and Locknut. Make
sure that the Cable Trap is in the proper position
and that the Cable and Pulley move smoothly.
Move the 3 112" Pulley (38) in the other "U"-Brecket
(85) in the same manner.
See drawing B. Slack can also be removed from the
cables by tightening the 1/4" Nylon Locknuts (65)
attaching a cable to either "U"-Brecket (85), or the
Small =U"-Bracket (79). To do this, you may need to
remove the 3 1/2" Pulley (38) from the "U"-Bracket, or
remove the Small =U"-Bracket from the Weight Tube
(not shown). Make sure that the cables are not too
tight or the Top Weight (74) will be lifted off the weight
stack.
ADJUSTING THE LEG PRESS PLATE
To adjust the Leg Press Plate (31), remove the Leg
Press Pin (87) from the Leg Press Frame (30) and the
Adjustment Tube (88). Move the Tube to the desired
position and secure it in place with the Pin. Be sure
the Pin is turned to the locked position around the
Leg Press Frame,

EXERCISE GUIDELINES
THE FOUR BASIC TYPES OF WORKOUTS
Muscle Building
To increase the size and strength of your muscles,
push them close to their maximum capacity. Your mus-
cles will continually adapt and grow as you progres-
sively increase the intensity of your exercise. You can
adjust the intensity level of an individual exercise in
two ways:
•by changing the amount of weight used
•by changing the number of repetitions or sets per-
formed. (A "repetition" is one complete cycle of an
exercise, such as one sit-up. A "set" is a series of
repetitions.)
The proper amount of weight for each exercise
depends upon the individual user. You must gauge
your limits and select the amount of weight that is right
for you. Begin with 3 sets of 8 repetitions for each
exercise you perform. Rest for 3 minutes after eac,_
set. When you can complete 3sets of 12 repetitions
without difficulty,increase the amount of weight.
Toning
You can tone your muscles by pushing them to a mod-
erate percentage of their capacity. Select a moderate
amount of weight and increase the number of repeti-
tions 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 complet-
ing more sets rather than by using high amounts of
weight.
Weight Loss
To lose weight, use a low amount of weight and
increase the number of repetitions in each set.
Exercise for 20 to 30 minutes, resting for a maximum
of 30 seconds between sets.
Cross Training
Cross training is an efficient way to get a complete and
well-balanced fitness program. An example of a bal-
anced program is:
•Plan weight training workouts on Monday,
Wednesday, and Friday.
•Plan 20 to 30 minutes of aerobic exercise, such as
cycling or swimming, on Tuesday and Thursday.
•Rest from both weight training and aerobic exercise
for at least one full day each week to give your body
time to regenerate.
The combination of weight training and aerobic exer-
cise will reshape and strengthen your body, plus devel-
op your heart and lungs.
PERSONALIZING YOUR EXERCISE PROGRAM
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 overdo-
ing it during the first few months of your exercise pro-
gram. 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 immedi-
ately 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 pro-
gram.
WARMING UP
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 delive,r-
ing more oxygefl to your muscles.
WORKING OUT
Each workout should include 6 to 10 different exercis-
es. Select exercises for every major muscle group,
emphasizing areas that you want to develop most. To
give balance and vadety 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 dght 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 apprcpriate parts of the body.
Exercising in an uncontrolled manner will leave you
feeling exhausted. On the exercise guide accompany-
ing this manual you will find photographs showing the
correct form for several exercises, and a list of the
muscles affected. Refer to the muscle chart on page
27 to find the names of the muscles.
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
dudng the exertion stage of each repetition and inhale
dudng the return stroke. Never hold your breath.
26

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 work-
out.
• 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.
COOLING DOWN
End each workout with 5 to 10 minutes of stretching.
Include stretches for both your arms and legs. Move
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.
STAYING MOTIVATED
For motivation, keep a record of each workout, list the
date, the exercises performed, the weight 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.
