that all users of the home gym system are
adequately informed of all precautions.

13. Always disconnect the lat bar from the home
gym system when performing an exercise
that does not use the lat bar.

2. Read all instructions in this manual and in
the accompanying literature before using the
home gym system.

14. The home gym system is intended for home
use only. Do not use the home gym system in
a commercial, rental, or institutional setting.

3. If you feel pain or dizziness at any time while
exercising, stop immediately and begin cooling down.

15. CAUTION DECAL PLACEMENT: The decal
shown below has been placed on the home
gym system in two locations. If either decal

please call our Customer Service Department
toll-free at 1-800-999-3756, Monday through
Friday, 6 a.m. until 6 p.m. Mountain Time

MISC

PRO 9730

49. Make sure that all parts have been properly tightened. The use of the remaining parts will be
explained in ADJUSTMENT, beginning on page 22 of this manual.
Before using the home gym system, pull each cable a few times to be 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 installed, they may be damaged when heavy weight
is used. See the CABLE DIAGRAMS on page 26 and 27 of this manual for proper cable routing.
If there is any slack in the cables, you will need to remove it by tightening the cables. See
TROUBLE-SHOOTING AND MAINTENANCE on page 25.

21

ADJUSTMENT
The instructions below describe how each part of the home gym system can be adjusted. Refer to the exercise
poster accompanying this manual to see how the home gym system should be set up for each exercise.
IMPORTANT: When attaching the lat bar or nylon strap, make sure that the attachments are in the correct starting position for the exercise to be performed. If there is any slack in the cables or chain as an
exercise is performed, the effectiveness of the exercise will be reduced.
CHANGING THE WEIGHT SETTING
To change the weight setting of either weight stack,
insert a Weight Pin (26) under the desired Weight
(25). 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 6.5 pounds to
106.5 pounds, in increments of 12.5 pounds. Note:
Due to the cables and pulleys, the amount of
resistance at each exercise station may vary from
the weight setting. Use the WEIGHT RESISTANCE
CHART on page 24 to find the approximate
amount of resistance at each weight station.

ATTACHING THE LAT BAR OR NYLON STRAP TO
THE HIGH PULLEY STATION
39

Attach the Lat Bar (54) to the High Cable (23) with a
Cable Clip (53). For some exercises, the Chain (52)
should be attached between the Lat 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 starting position for
the exercise to be performed.

Cable with two Cable Clips. Adjust the length of the
Chain between the Lat Bar and the Low Cable so
the Lat Bar is in the correct starting position for
the exercise to be performed.

Attach one end of the Chain (52) to the Low Cable
(86) with a Cable Clip (53). Attach the other end of
the Chain to the Eyebolt (35) with a Cable Clip.
Always remove the Chain (52) from the Eyebolt
(35) before removing the seat.

See drawing A. Set the bracket on the Front Seat
Frame (36) onto the indicated pins on the Front

36

For some exercises, the Front Seat Frame (36) must
be removed. First, be sure that the chain is not
attached to the leg lever. Next, remove the Seat Knob
(40) and the 5/16” x 2 3/4” Carriage Bolt (14) from the
Front Seat Frame. Lift the Front Seat Frame off the
Front Upright (42).

14

See drawing B. Align the holes in the Rear Seat
Frame (77) with one set of holes in the Rear Upright
(56). Attach the Rear Seat Frame to the Rear Upright
with the 5/16” x 2 3/4” Carriage Bolt (14) and the Seat
Knob (40).
B

For some exercises, the Rear Seat Frame (77) must
be removed. Remove the Seat Knob (40) and the

TROUBLE-SHOOTING AND MAINTENANCE
Inspect and tighten all parts each time you use the home gym system. Replace any worn parts immediately. The
home gym system can be cleaned using a damp cloth and mild non-abrasive detergent. Do not use solvents.
TIGHTENING THE CABLES

1

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. Insert the Weight Pin
(26) under one of the indicated Weights (25). Slack
can be removed from the cables by tightening the
1/4” Nylon Locknuts (2) at the end of the High Cable
(23) or Rear Cable (95) (see drawing 1) and at the
end of the Press Cable (58) (see drawing 2). To do
this you may need to remove the Small “U”-Bracket
(67) from the Weight Tube (not shown) or remove the
3 1/2” Pulley (15) from the Long “U”-Bracket (57).
Make sure that the cables are not too tight or the Top
Weight (76) will be lifted off the weight stack.

26

Additional slack can be removed by moving the 3 1/2”
Pulley (15) to the other hole in the Long “U”-Bracket
(57). Remove the 3/8” Nylon Locknut (21) and the
3/8” x 2” Bolt (12) from the Cable Trap (66), Pulley,
and “U”-Bracket. Re-attach the Pulley and Cable Trap.
Be sure that the Cable trap is in the proper position
and that the Cable and Pulley move smoothly.

Note: If a cable tends to slip off the pulleys often,
the cable may have become twisted. Remove the
cable and re-install it.

CABLE DIAGRAMS
The cable diagrams on this page and the next page show the proper routing of the High Cable (23), the Low
Cable (86), the Rear Cable (95), and the Press Cable (58). Use the diagrams to be sure that the Cables have
been assembled correctly. The starting and ending points of each Cable have been labeled. The numbers show
the proper route for each Cable. IMPORTANT: If the Cables have not been correctly routed, the WEIDER
PRO 9730 will not function properly and damage may occur.

REMOVE THIS PART IDENTIFICATION
CHART FROM THE MANUAL

This chart is provided to help you identify the small parts used in assembly. Important: Some parts
may have been pre-assembled for shipping purposes. If you cannot find a part in the parts bags,
check to see if it has been pre-assembled. The number in parenthesis below each part refers to the
key number of the part. The second number refers to the quantity needed for assembly.

Please Note: The assembly is divided into four stages: 1) frame assembly, 2) press, squat, and
butterfly arm assembly, 3) cable and pulley assembly, and 4) seat and backrest assembly. The
hardware for each stage is packaged separately. Wait until you begin each assembly stage to
open that parts bag.
