Keep children under 12 and pets away from the weight bench at all times. 4. Use the weight bench only on a level surface. Cover the floor beneath the weight bench for protection. 5. Inspect and tighten all parts each time you use the weight bench. Replace any worn parts immediately. 6. The weight bench is intended for home use only. Do not use the weight bench in any commercial, rental, or institutional setting. 7. Always be sure there is an equal amount of weight on each side of your barbell (not included) when you are using it. When adding or removing weights, always keep some weight on both ends of the barbell and prevent the barbell from tipping. 8. Use the weight bench only as described in this manual. 11. The weight bench does not include weights. The weight bench is designed to support a maximum of 460 pounds, including the user, a weight bar, and weights.

When using the backrest in an inclined position, make sure that the locking pin is inserted completely through both adjustment tubes. 13. Always exercise with a partner. When you are performing bench press exercises, your partner should stand behind you to catch the barbell if you cannot complete a repetition. 14. If you feel pain or dizziness while exercising, stop immediately and begin cooling down. 15. Keep hands and feet away from moving parts.
