MAINTENANCE Make sure that all parts are properly tightened each time the weight system is used. Replace any worn parts immediately. The weight system can be cleaned with a damp cloth and a mild, non-abrasive detergent. Do not use solvents to clean the weight system. TIGHTENING THE CABLES Woven cable, the type of cable used on the weight 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. To tighten the cables, first insert the weight pin into the middle of the weight stack. Slack can be removed from the cables several ways: To tighten the cables, you must change the position of the upper Pulley (42) attached to the Pulley Plates (23). Remove the M10 Locknut (68), the two M10 Washers (73), and the M10 x 50mm Bolt (58) from the Pulley Plates (23). Next, remove the Pulley (42) and the two Cable Guides (52). Reattach the Pulley (42) and the Cable Guides (52) to the Pulley Plates (23) using a lower set of holes in the Pulley Plates. Make sure that the Cable Guides are holding the High Cable (53) in the groove of the Pulley. 52 53 42 52 68 73 23 73 58 If you have tightened the cables as described above and there is still slack in the cables, tighten the High Cable (53) further into the Weight Selector (7) as described below. 53 84 Loosen the 1/2" Nut (84) on the High Cable (53). 78 Next, tighten the High Cable into the Weight Selector (7) until the slack is removed from the High 7 Cable. Then, retighten the 1/2" Nut (84) against the 13mm Washer (78). Do not overtighten the cables. If the cables are overtightened, the top weight will be lifted off the weight stack. If a cable tends to slip off the pulleys often, it may have become twisted. Remove the cable and reinstall it. If the cables need to be replaced, see ORDERING REPLACEMENT PARTS on the back cover of this manual. 26
