Trouble-shooting and Maintenance

Inspect and tighten all parts each time you use the home gym. Replace any worn parts immediately. The home
gym 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 home gym,
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 in several ways:
Adjustment
The Adjustable Pulley Plates (23) have several sets of
Holes
23
adjustment holes. By moving one or both pulleys to a dif-
ferent set of holes, you will tighten the cables.
50
To move one Pulley, remove the 3/8Ó Nylon Locknut (50)
and the 3/8Ó x 2Ó Bolt (54). Remove the Cable Trap (25)
and the Pulley (24) from the Adjustable Pulley Frame
25
(23). Re-attach the Pulley and the Cable Trap to the
appropriate adjustment hole in the Pulley Frame. Note:
54
Begin by moving one Pulley to the second adjustment
24
hole. If the Cables are still too loose, move the same
Pulley to the third hole. If additional adjustment is
needed, move the second Pulley until the Cables are
tight.
The bolt at the end of the Weight Cable (72) is one of the
means for tightening the Cables. Use the following proce-
dure for tightening the Cables: Loosen the 1/2Ó Plain Nut
(100). Thread the bolt at the end of the Weight Cable into
the Weight Tube (17) until all Cables are tight and rest
firmly in the grooves of all Pulleys. Then tighten the 1/2Ó
72
Plain Nut (100) onto the 1/2Ó Washer (98).
Note: For clarity, the Shroud is not shown. The
Shroud does not have to be removed to tighten the
Cables.
Bolt
Note: If a Cable tends to slip off the Pulleys often, the
100
Cable may have become twisted. Remove the Cable
and re-install it.
98
