Weider E2000 English Manual - Page 5

Assembly Note: This introduction will save you more time than it takes to read it! Making Things Easier for Yourself Everything in this manual is designed to ensure that the weight system can be assembled successfully by anyone. However, it is important to recognize that the weight system is a sophisticated product with many small parts. The assembly process will take timeÑpossibly several hours. By setting aside plenty of time, and by deciding to make the task enjoyable, assembly will go smoothly. You may want to complete the process over a couple of evenings. Giving Yourself a Good Start Before you begin the assembly process, take the time to complete the steps outlined here. Clearing the Workspace Clear a workspace that is large enough to hold all parts and allow you to walk all the way around the assembled equipment. Unpacking the Box To make the assembly process as smooth as possible, we have broken it into separate stages. All parts used in each stage are found in individual packages in the shipping box. Place all parts in a cleared area and remove the packing materials. Do not dispose of the packing materials until assembly is completed. Identifying Parts To help you identify the small parts used in assembly, we have included a PART IDENTIFICATION CHART located in the center of this manual. Place the chart on the floor and use it to quickly identify different parts as you open the packages for each step. Note: Some small parts may have been preattached. If a part is not in the parts bag, check to see if it has been pre-attached. Orienting Parts As you assemble this product, be sure that all parts are oriented as shown in the drawings. Tightening Parts Tighten all parts as you assemble them, unless instructed to do otherwise. Required Tools Assembly requires the following tools (not included): ¥ Two (2) adjustable wrenches ¥ One (1) standard screwdriver ¥ One (1) phillips screwdriver ¥ One (1) rubber mallet ¥ Lubricant, such as grease or petroleum jelly, and soapy water ¥ Tape, such as clear tape or masking tape Important: Wait until you begin each assembly stage to open the parts bag labeled for that assembly stage. Assembly will be more convenient if you have a socket set, a set of open-end or closed-end wrenches or a set of ratchet wrenches.
