IMPORTANT PRECAUTIONS WARNING: To reduce the risk of serious injury, read the following important precau- tions before using the weight bench. 1. Read all instructions in this manual and all warnings on the weight bench before using the weight bench. Use the weight bench only as described in this manual. 2. It is the responsibility of the owner to ensure that all users of the weight bench are adequately informed of all precautions. 10. The weight bench is designed to support a maximum user weight of 300 pounds, and a maximum total weight of 510 pounds. Do not place more than 210 pounds, including a barbell and weights, on the weight rests. Do not place more than 130 pounds on the leg lever or weight carriage. Note: The weight bench does not include a barbell or weights. 3. The weight bench is intended for home use only. Do not use the weight bench in any commercial, rental, or institutional setting. 4. Keep the weight bench indoors, away from moisture and dust. Place the weight bench on a level surface, with a mat beneath it to protect the floor or carpet. Make sure that there is enough clearance around the weight bench to mount, dismount, and use the weight bench. 5. Inspect and properly tighten all parts regularly. Replace any worn parts immediately. 6. Keep children under 12 and pets away from the weight bench at all times. 11. Do not sit on the top end of the backrest; this will cause the weight bench to tip. 12. Always make sure there is an equal amount of weight on each side of your barbell when you are using it. Always keep some weight on both ends of the barbell when adding or removing weights to prevent the barbell from tipping. 13. When you are using the leg lever, place a barbell with the same amount of weight on the weight rests to balance the bench. 14. When you put weight on the weight rests, make sure you put at least ten pounds on the leg lever to balance the weight bench. 7. Keep hands and feet away from moving parts. 8. Always wear athletic shoes for foot protection while exercising. 15. Make sure that the adjustment pin and weight rest knobs are inserted completely and tightened into the uprights before beginning any exercise. 9. 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. 16. Always remove the curl post and lat tower from the front leg before using the leg lever. 17. If you feel pain or dizziness at any time while exercising, stop immediately and begin cooling down. WARNING: Before beginning this or any exercise program, consult your physician. This is especially important for persons over the age of 35 or persons with pre-existing health problems.
