Insert the free end of the weight belt (32) through the slot in the leverage arm belt clamp, and pull through the opposite
slot just until force is applied against the top plate (8). This will eliminate any slack in the belt and ensure proper ten-
sioning.
While maintaining tension on the weight belt, press down on the free end of the belt so it lays flat against the inside of
the belt clamp.
Insert the belt retainer (36) into the belt clamp. BE SURE the tapped hole in the belt retainer is aligned with the mating
hole in the belt clamp.
Thread the retaining screw (44) through the belt clamp and into the belt retainer (36). Tighten the retaining screw to 400
inch-pounds.
Check for proper tensioning of the weight belt by applying lateral pressure to the belt at a point midway between two pul-
leys. Deflection of the weight belt should be less than 25 mm. Loosen the retaining screw (44) and adjust belt tension as
needed.
5. Install the Seat and Armrest
Cushions
Hold the seat cushion (27) in place on the seat
post (6). Secure the seat cushion to the seat
post using two screws (65) and washers (54).
Tighten the screws securely.
Slowly slide the seat post (6) into the seat post
guide in the main frame (2). While holding the
seat post, press the ratchet handle to retract
the locking pin, and slide the seat post fully
into the seat post guide.
Release the ratchet handle. Slowly lift the seat
post until the locking pin on the ratchet han-
dle locks into a drilled hole in the seat post.
Hold the armrest cushion (26) in place on the
main frame (2). Secure the armrest cushion to
the main frame using four screws (40) and
washers (54). Tighten the screws securely.
6. Install the Weight Stack Shrouds
NOTE:
It is necessary to flex the lower
shrouds (28, 29) slightly to engage the mat-
ing grooves in the weight stack frame (1).
Slide the lower front shroud (29) into the mat-
ing grooves in the weight stack frame (1). Slide
the lower rear shroud (28) into the mating
grooves in the weight stack frame.
Install one tapped hole nut (37) onto each of
the six upper shroud mounting tabs on the
weight stack frame (1).
Hold one upper shroud (30) in position against
the weight stack frame (1), and secure the
shroud to the frame using three screws (47)
and washers (55).
Repeat for the remaining upper shroud (40).

7. Final Assembly and Testing
Check all attaching parts to ensure they are
tightened securely.
Verify operation of the seat post:
While holding the seat post, press the
ratchet handle to retract the locking pin,
and move the back cushion forward.
Release the ratchet handle, and verify the
locking pin engages the first drilled hole
at the first seat position.
Repeat to verify the locking pin engages
the drilled hole at all seat positions.
Return the seat post to the "stowed" posi-
tion.
Verify the seat post slides smoothly, with-
out evidence of sticking or binding.
Mount the unit. Engage the selector pin at a
comfortable weight. Adjust the seat cushion as
desired.
Operate the leverage arm and verify the fol-
lowing:
Verify operation of the leverage arm is
smooth, without evidence of sticking or
binding.
Verify there is no evidence of "free play" when actuating the leverage arm from the "stowed" position.
Verify there is no evidence of excessive noise during operation.
Return the leverage arm to the "stowed" position.
You have now completed assembly of your INSTINCT TRICEPS EXTENSION.

ANCHORING

IMPORTANT: The INSTINCT TRICEPS EXTENSION must be secured to the floor to sta-
47
55
bilize and eliminate rocking or tipping over. This must be performed by a licensed con-
tractor. Failure to anchor the unit will void the warranty. STAR TRAC shall not be
liable for damage or injury caused by unanchored or improperly anchored units.
30
47
The INSTINCT TRICEPS EXTENSION must be anchored to the floor using through bolts or anchoring studs. Each foot pad
55
on the unit provides two anchoring holes that will accommodate bolts of up to 12mm (7/16") diameter. Only one hole in each foot
37
pad is required during anchoring. The holes used for anchoring may be selected based on installation site requirements or cus-
tomer preference.
Anchoring bolts/studs must meet the following requirements:
Anchor bolts shall be Grade 8.8 or Grade SAE 5.
28
Anchoring bolts or studs shall have a minimum size of 6mm (1/4") diameter; 8mm (5/16") diameter bolts/studs are recom-
mended.
Pull-out force shall be 100kg (2201 lbs) minimum for any single anchor. This will ensure a secure anchoring system and
safe operation of the unit by all users.
