Power Rod
®
Resistance
Power Rod
®
units are made from a special composite
material. Your rods are sheathed with a protective black
rubber coating. Each rod is marked with its weight rating
on the “Rod Cap”.
Adjusting And
Understanding
The Resistance
The Bowflex® Motivator® 2
home gym comes with 210
pounds (95 kg) of resistance
[one pair of 5 lb. (2.25 kg) rods,
two pair of 10 lb. (4.5 kg) one
pair of 30 lb. (13.5 kg) rods,
and one pair of 50 lb. (22.5 kg)
rods].
Hooking The Power Rod
®
Unit To The
Cables
You may use one rod or several rods in combination, to
create your desired resistance
level.
To hook multiple rods up to
one cable, bend the closest rod
toward the cable and place the
cable hook through that rod cap.
You can then hook up the next
closest rod through the same
cable hook.
Hooking up the closest rod first
prevents rods from crossing over
the top of one another.
Safety
When connecting the
Power
Rod
®
unit to the cable hooks
and disconnecting them, do
not stand so that you are
looking directly over the top of
the rods. Stand off to the side,
so that if a rod is accidentally
released, you will not be
struck by it.
When You Are Not Using Your
Bowflex® Motivator® 2 Home Gym
Disconnect the cables from the
Power Rod
®
unit when
your are not using your Bowflex® Motivator® 2 home
gym. Use the rod
binding strap included
with your machine
to bind all the rods
together at the top.
You can also place
your cables and grips
through the strap
to keep them out of
the way. Leaving the
rods and cables under
tension could cause
injury if a rod were
inadvertantly released.
