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. Slack can be
removed from the cables by tightening the 1/4Ó Nuts
(2) at the end of the Long 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 ÒUÓ-
Bracket (67) from the Weight Tube (not shown) or
remove the 3 1/2Ó Pulley (15) from the Long ÒUÓ-
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 1/2Ó
Pulley (15) to the other hole in the Long ÒUÓ-Bracket
(57). Remove the 3/8Ó Nylon Locknut (21) and the
3/8Ó x 2Ó Bolt (12) from the Cable Trap (66), Pulley,
and ÒUÓ-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 smooth-
ly.
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.
