Note: Your machine may not match the images provided exactly.
Do not drop the barbell/curl bar or weight plates. Dropping the barbell/curl bar or weight plates will damage the weight plates and/or
the locking mechanism, and can cause the weight plates to disengage (drop) from the handle without warning. This can cause
serious injury, and will void the warranty.
Do not lean on the barbell handle or use it to support your body weight, such as using it as a base to perform a push up. Doing so will
damage the weight plates and/or the locking mechanisms, and can cause the weight plates to disengage (drop) from the handle without
warning. This can cause serious injury, and will void the warranty.
1. Place the Base End Shrouds on the Base Tubes. Ensure that the
Shroud screw holes are aligned to the correct Base Tube screw holes:
• 80-lb barbell configuration—use Base Tube screw holes #2 and 4 as
shown in Figure 1.
• 120-lb barbell configuration (with the 40-lb Weight Upgrade)—use
Base Tube screw holes #1 and 3.
Turn the screws only a few threads in.
Note: Do not fully tighten screws. Shrouds should still move slightly.
2. After both ends are attached loosely, place the Weight Plates in the
Base End Shrouds (Figure 2).
In order to avoid possible serious injury, when placing the
Weight Plates in the Base Assembly, be careful to avoid
fingers or hands being caught or pinched.
Figure 2
NOTICE: The Weight Plates must be placed so that the locking tabs
are pointed up (indicated in Figure 2a). The tabs can be
deformed if plates are placed with the tabs facing downward.
Dropping the plates can also cause the tabs to become
deformed.
