TROUBLE-SHOOTING AND MAINTENANCE
Inspect and tighten all parts each time you use the weight system. Replace any worn parts immediately. The
weight 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 weight
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 1/4” Nylon
Locknuts (2) at the end of the Long Cable (23) (see
A, inset drawing) and at the end of the Short Cable
(58) (see B, inset drawing). To do this you may need
to remove the Small “U”-Bracket (67) from the Weight
Tube (63) 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 lower 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 positioned to
hold the Cable in place, 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.
