Guide ROD Lubrication, Rear Foot Adjustment

GUIDE ROD LUBRICATION:

1.Apply a general purpose lubricant (such as 3-in-1 oil) that does not contain Teflon to a cotton cloth, then run the cotton cloth up and down the guide rods as needed.

2.Also apply oil to the incremental weight guide tracks.

3.Verify that the Top Plate and Incremental Plate slide smoothly.

TOP PLATE & CABLE ADJUSTMENT:

1.Engage pin at maximum weight and actuate arm 3 to 4 times to fully seat the weight stacks.

2.Disengage pins and verify that there is no gap between the Top Plate and the lower weight plate. If a gap exists or if there is too much slack on the cable, then the cable tension needs to be adjusted.

3.Using two 13MM open end wrench, loosen the upper M8 Jam Nuts. Adjust cable tension until the Top Plate drops and rests on to the weight stack.

4.Hand tighten the jam nuts and check to make sure the gap is gone. Cable should deflect no more than ±25mm from centerline without raising the Top Plate. Check for smooth pin engagement.

5.Tighten jam nuts.

REAR FOOT ADJUSTMENT:

1.Verify that the equipment is at the desired location and then check to make sure the feet contact the ground and leveled.

2.If the machine rocks or is tippy, adjust rear foot by loosening the two Nyloc nuts using a 13MM open-end wrench and a 6MM hex key.

3.Slide the foot up or down until the machine is leveled.

4.Re-tighten the bolts and nuts.
