Using the Bowflex
Adjustable Pulley System
Using the Bowflex adjustable pulley system is as easy as
pulling a pin and expanding the pulley out.
Pulley knobs are spring-loaded and are located on the back
of the adjustable pulley system. To extend the pulley,
simply twist the knob a couple of turns to the left, then
pull out. Next, pull the adjustable sleeve out away from the
machine until it clicks into the extended position. Then,
tighten the knob to lock the adjustable pulley into position.
The adjustable
pulley system was
designed to
change the angle
of resistance to
increase the
effectiveness of
many upper body
exercises.
Use the pulley system in either the wide or narrow pulley
position. We’ve included a guide in each exercise so you
can use the pulley at the correct position.
To avoid injury, do not attempt to use the pulley in the
wide position when the manual indicates to perform the
exercise in the narrow pulley position.
Make certain the
adjustable pulley system
is locked and secure
before adding any Power
Rod resistance to the
pulley.
Exercises in the wide
position may require a
lighter weight than
those in the
narrow position.
Using the Bowflex
Low Pulley/Squat Station
Connect the low pulley/squat
station with the squat cables.
Without any resistance attached,
thread the squat cables through
the low pulley. The black plastic
ball on the cable should rest
directly against the pulley and
should be on the far side of the
pulley, away from the machine.
The squat cable has a loop at the
end. Fasten the loop with a snap
hook to the rod cables.
Next, fasten the squat cables to
the squat harness, using a snap hook.
And finally, attach the
squat harness to the squat
bar using a snap hook.
Now you can add Power
Rod Resistance.

The Bowflex Ultimate adjustable pulley system allows you to work the
same muscles from different angles, depending on the width of the
pulley angle.
Hooking up the low pulley/squat
station is easy. Once it’s
together, you can use it for a
wide variety of exercises —
including squats, flat bench
presses and bent over rows!
Pulleys adjust position with the simple turn and
pull of a knob.
The squat cable feeds through
the low pulley.The black plastic
ball is on the side farthest away
from the Power Rods.
