How To Use The Home Gym System - Weider 8530 User Manual

HOW TO USE THE HOME GYM SYSTEM

The instructions below describe how each part of the home gym system can be adjusted. Refer to the exercise
poster accompanying this manual to see how the home gym system should be set up for each exercise.
IMPORTANT: When attaching the lat bar or nylon strap, make sure that the attachments are in the cor-
rect starting position for the exercise to be performed. If there is any slack in the cables or chain as an
exercise is performed, the effectiveness of the exercise will be reduced.
CHANGING THE WEIGHT SETTING
The WEIDER 8530 features two weight stacks. The
front weight stack is connected to the upper and
lower pulleys, the press arm, and the butterfly arms.
The rear weight stack is connected to the squat arm.
To change the weight setting of either weight stack,
insert a Weight Pin (26) under the desired Weight
(25). Insert the Weight Pin until the bent end of the
Weight Pin is touching the Weights, and turn the bent
end downward. The weight setting of either weight
stack can be changed from 6.5 pounds to 106.5
pounds, in increments of 12.5 pounds. Note: Due to
the cables and pulleys, the actual amount of
resistance at each exercise station may vary from
the weight setting. Use the WEIGHT RESISTANCE
CHART on page 18 to find the approximate
amount of resistance at each weight station.
ATTACHING THE LAT BAR OR NYLON STRAP TO
THE HIGH PULLEY STATION
Attach the Lat Bar (54) to the Medium Cable (58) with
a Cable Clip (53). For some exercises, the Chain (52)
should be attached between the Lat Bar and the
Medium Cable with two Cable Clips. Adjust the
length of the Chain between the Lat Bar and the
Medium Cable so the Lat Bar is in the correct
starting position for the exercise to be performed.
The Nylon Strap (39) can be attached in the same
manner.
ATTACHING THE LAT BAR OR NYLON STRAP TO
THE LOW PULLEY STATION
Attach the Lat Bar (54) to the Short Cable (23) with a
Cable Clip (53). For some exercises, the Chain (52)
should be attached between the Lat Bar and the
Short Cable with two Cable Clips. Adjust the length
of the Chain between the Lat Bar and the Short
Cable so the Lat Bar is in the correct starting
position for the exercise to be performed.
The Nylon Strap (39) can be attached in the same
manner.
