6. Install the Weight Stack Shrouds
NOTE:
It is necessary to flex the lower
shrouds (9, 27) slightly to engage the mating
grooves in the weight stack frame (1).
Slide the lower front shroud (9) into the mat-
ing grooves in the weight stack frame (1). Slide
the lower rear shroud (27) into the mating
grooves in the weight stack frame.
Install one tapped hole nut (34) onto each of
the six upper shroud mounting tabs on the
weight stack frame (1).
Hold one upper shroud (28) in position against
the weight stack frame (1), and secure the
shroud to the frame using three screws (40)
and washers (52).
Repeat for the remaining upper shroud (28).
7. Final Assembly and Testing
Check all attaching parts to ensure they are
tightened securely.
Verify operation of the seat post:
■ Mount the unit. While holding the seat
post, press the ratchet handle to retract
the locking pin, and raise the seat. Release
the ratchet handle, and verify the locking
pin engages the first drilled hole at the
first seat position.
■ Repeat to verify the locking pin engages
the drilled hole at all seat positions.
■ Return the seat post to the "stowed" posi-
tion.
■ Verify the seat post slides smoothly, with-
out evidence of sticking or binding.
Mount the unit. Engage the selector pin at a
comfortable weight.
Operate the leverage arm and check the following:
■ Verify operation of the leverage arm is
smooth, without evidence of sticking or
binding.
■ Verify there is no evidence of "free play"
when actuating the leverage arm from the
"stowed" position.
■ Verify there is no evidence of excessive
noise during operation.
Return the leverage arm to the "stowed" position.
You have now completed assembly of your INSTINCT SHOULDER PRESS.
ANCHORING
IMPORTANT:
The INSTINCT SHOULDER PRESS must be secured to the floor to stabi-
lize and eliminate rocking or tipping over. This must be performed by a licensed con-
tractor. Failure to anchor the unit will void the warranty. STAR TRAC shall not be
liable for damage or injury caused by unanchored or improperly anchored units.
The INSTINCT SHOULDER PRESS must be anchored to the floor using through bolts or anchoring studs. Each foot pad on
the unit provides two anchoring holes that will accommodate bolts of up to 12mm (7/16") diameter. Only one hole in each foot
pad is required during anchoring. The holes used for anchoring may be selected based on installation site requirements or cus-
tomer preference.
Anchoring bolts/studs must meet the following requirements:
■
Anchor bolts shall be Grade 8.8 or Grade SAE 5.
■
Anchoring bolts or studs shall have a minimum size of 6mm (1/4") diameter; 8mm (5/16") diameter bolts/studs are recom-
mended.
■
Pull-out force shall be 100kg (2201 lbs) minimum for any single anchor. This will ensure a secure anchoring system and
safe operation of the unit by all users.

UIDELINES
GENERAL GUIDELINES
As with any exercise program, strength training involves an element of risk. The information provided in this section will help you
and/or your members make safe and productive use of your INSTINCT SHOULDER PRESS.
■
ALWAYS consult a physician before beginning any strength-training program. This is particularly important for persons
with known health conditions and/or persons that are not familiar with the risks involved with weight training.
■
All training sessions should be supervised by trained personnel.
■
BE SURE that all warning labels and placards affixed to the INSTINCT SHOULDER PRESS remain on the unit. DO
NOT alter warning labels and placards. BE SURE that each user reads and understands the information shown on all
labels and placards (safety, instructional and/or other).
■
Instruct all users on the proper use of the INSTINCT SHOULDER PRESS, as well as those actions that should be avoid-
ed.
■
Your INSTINCT SHOULDER PRESS has been designed to accommodate a wide variety of body types. Prior to use,
mount the unit and adjust the seat height to ensure comfortable operation of the leverage arm.
To minimize user and/or bystander injury:
■
Do not lean the against framework, weight stack or any component, regardless of whether it is dynamic or static.
■
Stay clear of all components while in a dynamic state of motion. Keep hands and feet away from cables, belts, cams and
pulleys and/or any converging action. The convergence of these transmission-based components can cause serious injury.
■
Exercising on free weight and selectorized products should be performed with the assistance of a spotter.
