ADJUSTMENTS The weight bench is designed to be used with your own weight set (not included). The steps below explain how the weight bench can be adjusted. Refer to the accompanying exercise guide to see the correct form for several exercises. Make sure all parts are properly tightened each time the weight bench is used. Replace any worn parts immediately. The weight bench can be cleaned with a damp cloth and a mild, non-abrasive detergent. Do not use solvents. ADJUSTING THE BACKREST The Backrest (6) can be used in a declined position, a level position, or three inclined positions. To use the Backrest in a declined position, remove the Support Rod (7) and lay the Backrest on the Crossbar (3). To use the Backrest (6) in a level position or an inclined position, insert the Support Rod (7) through a set of holes in the Uprights (1). Rotate the Support Rod to the locked position, so the locking pin is wrapped around the Upright. Rest the Backrest on the Support Rod. ATTACHING WEIGHTS To use the Leg Lever (4), slide the desired weights onto the weight tube on the Leg Lever. Do not place more than 50 pounds on the Leg Lever. To use the Fly Arms (25), make sure there is a Weight Stop (28) on each weight tube. Next, slide the desired amount of weight onto the weight tubes. Do not place more than 30 pounds on each Arm. WARNING: When using the Leg Lever (4), place a barbell with the same amount of weight on the weight rests to balance the bench. 1 1 6 7 3 4 Weight Tube Weight Locking Pin 25 28 Weight Weight Tube REMOVING AND ATTACHING THE FLY ARMS Some exercises are easier to perform if the Fly Arms (25) are removed from the weight bench.
