Weight Resistance Chart - Weider 9940 User Manual

The threaded ends on the Press Cable (72) and the Ab
Cable (74) that are attached to the weight stacks can also
be used to tighten the cables.
To tighten the Ab Cable (74), remove the "U"-Bracket (97)
from the Short Weight Tube (17) by removing the 5/16" x
1 3/4" Bolt (96) and the 5/16" Nylon Locknut (64).
Tighten the 1/4" Nylon Locknut (68) at the end of the Ab
Cable (74) as far as it will go. Then re-attach the "U"-
Bracket (97).
The Press Cable (72) can be tightened the same way.
When you are tightening the cables, take note that they
are linked into two distinct groups. The Butterfly Cable
(73), the Ab Cable (74), and the Low Pulley Cable (75)
are all connected to the small weight stack. All three
cables will be tightened by tightening the Ab Cable (74)
as described above or by using the Adjustable Pulley
Plates (23) as described on the previous page.
The Press Cable (72) is the only cable attached to the
large weight stack. It must be tightened by using the
method described above or by moving the "V"-Pulleys as
described on the previous page.

Weight Resistance Chart

The chart below shows the approximate weight resistance at each exercise station. "Top" refers to the 6 lb. top
weight; the other numbers refer to the 12.5 lb. weight plates. Note: The actual resistance at each station may
vary due to differences in individual weight plates as well as friction between the cables, pulleys, and
weight guides.
