TROUBLE-SHOOTING AND MAINTENANCE
Inspect and tighten all parts each time you use the home gym system. Replace any worn parts immediately. The
home gym system can be cleaned using a damp cloth and mild non-abrasive detergent. Do not use solvents.
TIGHTENING THE CABLES
Woven cable, the type of cable used on the home
gym system, can stretch slightly when it is first used.
If there is slack in the cables before resistance is felt,
the cables should be tightened. Insert the Weight Pin
(26) under one of the indicated Weights (25). Slack
can be removed from the cables by tightening the 1/4”
Nylon Locknuts (2) at the end of the Medium Cable
(23) (see drawing 1) and at the end of the Short
Cable (58) (see drawing 2). To do this you may need
to remove the Small “U”-Bracket (67) from the Weight
Tube (not shown) or remove the 3 1/2” Pulley (15)
from the Long “U”-Bracket (57). Make sure that the
cables are not too tight or the Top Weight (76) will be
lifted off the weight stack.
Additional slack can be removed by moving the 3 1/2”
Pulley (15) to the other hole in the Long “U”-Bracket
(57). Remove the 3/8” Nylon Locknut (21) and the
3/8” x 2” Bolt (12) from the Cable Trap (66), Pulley,
and “U”-Bracket. Re-attach the Pulley and Cable Trap.
Be sure that the Cable trap is in the proper position
and that the Cable and Pulley move smoothly.
Note: If a cable tends to slip off the pulleys often,
the cable may have become twisted. Remove the
cable and re-install it.
If the cables need to be replaced, see ORDERING
REPLACEMENT PARTS on the back cover of this
manual.
