MAINTENANCE

Make sure that all parts are properly tightened each time the weight system is used. Replace any worn parts
immediately. The weight system can be cleaned with a damp cloth and a 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. To tighten the cables, first insert the
weight pin into the middle of the weight stack. Slack can be removed from these cables several ways:
See the inset drawing. Tighten the M8 Locknut (58)
that connects the end of the Low Cable (53) to the U-
bracket (45).

Remove the M10 Locknut (56) and the M10 x 51mm

56
Bolt (66) from the Cable Trap (51), the 90mm Pulley
(48), the two Half Guards (43), and the U-bracket
43
(45). Reattach the Pulley, Cable Trap, and Half
66
Guards to the other hole in the U-bracket. Make sure
that the Cable Trap is in the proper position and
45
that the Low Cable (53) and Pulley move smooth-

ly.

Loosen the M12 Nut (84) on the High Cable (55).
Tighten the Cable into the Weight Selector (24) until
55
the slack is removed from the Cable. Then, retighten
84
the M12 Nut against the Large Washer (85).

Do not overtighten the cables. If the cables are overtightened, the top weight will be lifted off the weight
stack. If a cable tends to slip off the pulleys often, it may have become twisted. Remove the cable and
reinstall it. If the cables need to be replaced, see ORDERING REPLACEMENT PARTS on the back cover of
this manual.
