The Workout Bench

Your Bowflex Sport® home gym has a number of seat
and bench positions: flat bench forward, flat bench back,
45° incline and free-sliding seat extension.
To adjust the seat, pull out the Seat Rail Knob, then slide
the seat to one of the three locking holes on the Seat Rail.
Release the Seat Rail Knob to secure when finished.

Removing the Bench:

The Bench easily attaches and releases from the Seat. To
attach the Bench, insert the half hinge on the end of the
Bench into the half hinge on the seat. To remove the
Bench, lift up on the long portion and pull away from
seat.

Flat Bench:

The Flat bench position is used for most exercises. You
may lock the bench into a Back (closest
to Power Rod ® unit) or Forward
(farthest from Power Rod
to accommodate height/reach needs.
45° Incline Bench:
Start with a flat bench, following the
above instructions to release and move
the seat and bench. Lift the bench while
sliding the seat toward the Power Rod
unit until the bench back is resting
against the Lat Tower.

Leg Extension:

Refer to page A-12 of the Assembly
Manual for instructions on installing the
Leg Extension Seat.

Free-Sliding Seat:

Remove the Bench, pull out the Seat
Rail Knob, give it half a turn and release
to place the Seat in a "free sliding" position for Aerobic
Rowing.

Maintenance and Care of Your Bowflex
Sport Home Gym
®
Inspect your machine for any worn or loose components
prior to use. Tighten or replace any worn or loose
components prior to use. Pay close
attention to cables, or belts and their
connections.
Clean the bench with a non-abrasive
household cleanser after each use. This
will keep it looking new. Do not use
automotive cleaner, which can make the
bench too "slick."
Review all warning notices. The
safety and integrity designed into a
machine can only be maintained when
the equipment is regularly examined
for damage and repaired. It is the sole
responsibility of the owner to ensure
that regular maintenance is performed.
Worn or damaged components shall be
replaced immediately or the equipment
removed from service until the repair
is made. Only manufacturer supplied
components shall be used to maintain/
repair the equipment.
