MAINTENANCE

Make sure all parts are properly tightened each time the weight bench is used. Replace any worn parts immediate-
ly. The weight bench 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 bench, can stretch slightly when it is first used. If there is
slack in the cables before resistance is felt, the cables should be tightened. Make sure that the cables are not
too tight, or the weight carriage will be lifted. Slack can be removed in the following ways.
See drawing A. Remove the M10 x 53mm Button Bolt
(147) and the M10 Nylon Locknut (79) attaching the
lower 90mm Pulley (58), the Small Cable Trap (63),
and the Half Finger Guards (40) to the Pulley Plates
(74). Use the Bolt and Locknut to reattach the Pulley,
Cable Trap, and Finger Guards to the next higher set
of holes in the Pulley Plates. Repeat until the cables
are tight.
To loosen the cables, move the 90mm Pulley (58) to a
lower hole in the Pulley Plates (74).
See drawing B. Remove the M10 x 53mm Button Bolt
(147) and the M10 Nylon Locknut (79) attaching the
90mm Pulley (58), the Small Cable Trap (63), and two
Half Finger Guards (40) to a "U"-bracket (47). Use the
Bolt and Locknut to reattach the Pulley, Cable Trap,
and Finger Guards to the higher set of holes in the "U"-
bracket.
See drawing B. Tighten the M6 Nylon Locknut (80)
and the M6 Washer (86) onto the Low Cable (72) a
couple of turns.
See drawing C. Additional slack can be removed
from the cables by tightening a cable into the M6
Nylon Locknut (80) inside of a Clip (53). To do this,
pull the Clip Cover (52) back and use a pair of pliers
or a screwdriver to tighten the Locknut. Replace the
Clip Cover.
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.
Replace all cables at least every two years.
