IMPORTANT PRECAUTIONS
WARNING:To reduce the risk of serious injury, read the following important precautions before using
the weight bench.
1. Read all instructions in this manual before
using the weight bench. Use the weight
bench only as described in this manual.
2. It is the responsibility of the owner to ensure
that all users of the weight bench are ade-
quately informed of all precautions.
3. The weight bench is intended for home use
only. Do not use the weight bench in any
commercial, rental, or institutional setting.
4. Use the weight bench only on a level surface.
Cover the floor beneath the weight bench for
protection.
5. Inspect and tighten all parts each time you
use the weight bench. Replace any worn
parts immediately.
6. Keep children under 12 and pets away from
the weight bench at all times.
7. Keep hands and feet away from moving parts.
8. Always wear athletic shoes for foot protec-
tion while exercising.
9. Do not use a barbell (not included) longer
than six feet with this weight bench.
10. Always be sure there is an equal amount of
weight on each side of your barbell (not
included) when you are using it.
11. The weight bench is designed to support a
maximum of 460 pounds, including the user,
a barbell, and weights. The preacher curl post
is designed to support a maximum of 50
pounds. Do not place more than 210 pounds,
including a barbell and weights, on the
weight rests; do not place more than 130
pounds on the weight carriage; do not place
more than 130 pounds on the leg lever for
normal use.
12. Always place 50 pounds on the leg lever
when performing squat exercises to balance
the bench (see page 15).
13. Always fold the backrest out of the way when
performing squat exercises (see page 15). Do
not sit on the seat when the backrest is folded.
14. Do not stand with your back to the weight
bench when performing squat exercises (see
page 15). You should be able to see the
weight rests while exercising so that you can
safely return the barbell (not included) to the
weight rests when you finish the exercise.
15. When using the backrest, make sure that the
adjustment tube is fully inserted into the
adjustment brackets on the uprights.
16. Always remove the lat tower or curl post
from the front leg and place the 2” inner cap
over the open tube before performing leg
curl or leg extension exercises with the leg
lever (see page 15).
17. Always set both weight rests at the same
height. The long adjustment knob must
always be inserted through both the weight
rest and upright and firmly tightened. Never
tighten the long adjustment knob into an
upright and then set a weight rest in the
upright on top of the long adjustment knob.
18. Always exercise with a partner. When you are
performing bench press exercises, squat
exercises, or toe raise exercises, your partner
should stand behind you to catch the barbell
if you cannot complete a repetition.
19. If you feel pain or dizziness at any time while
exercising, stop immediately and begin cool-
ing down.
