UPPER CABLE ADJUSTMENT

After completing the assembly of the resistance system, the tension on the Upper Cable (121) will need to be
adjusted. Also, the Upper Cable can stretch slightly when it is first used. When this occurs, the Upper Cable ten-
sion will need to be readjusted. Follow the steps below to adjust the Upper Cable tension.
1. Connect the two Tension Gauges (118) together
using the magnet.
2. Plug in the resistance system as described in
PLUGGING IN THE RESISTANCE SYSTEM on
page 17. Use the Console (not shown) to adjust
the resistance setting of the system to the highest
setting, as described in Select a resistance setting
on page 17.
Squeeze the Upper Cable (121) together near a
Large Pulley (14). Hook the ends of the Tension
Gauges (118) around the Upper Cable as shown.
Do not hook the ends of the Tension Gauges
around the Tether (70); which is attached to
the back of the Pulley Bracket (10).
Slide the Tension Gauges (118) next to the Large
Pulley (14) as shown in the inset drawing.
3. Locate the 3/8" x 38mm Tension Screw (117) on
each end of the Resistance Bar (9). Alternately
tighten each Screw one turn at a time until the
two Tension Gauges (118) are pulled apart by the
Upper Cable (121).
The Upper Cable tension is now properly adjust-
ed.
