SM81 Unpacking & Assembly Instructions
INSTALLING THE CABLES
The SM81 uses eight cables. There are three different types of cable used on the SM81. They are:
1.Adjustable crossover cables (ball end cables) (2).
2.Low row cable (the long cables) (2).
3.Lat pulldown and tricep cables (4).
The lat and tricep cables can be identified by their short length, the low row cables can be identified by their long length and the adjustable crossover cables can be identified by the ball on the end of the cable. The routings for these cables are shown in Figures 15, 16, 17 and 18 below.
NOTE: YOU MUST REMOVE ALL PULLEYS TO ROUTE THE CABLES. USE A 9/16” COMBINATION WRENCH AND SOCKET TO DO THIS (SEE FIGURE 16). YOU MAY WISH TO REMOVE THE SHOULDER BOLTS (FIGURE 16 RIGHT SIDE) BY USING A 3/8” COMBINATION WRENCH AND A 1/8” HEX KEY WRENCH. WHEN YOU HAVE ROUTED THE CABLES, REPLACE ALL PULLEYS AND PLACE END CAPS ON NUT AND BOLT ENDS. YOU MAY NEED TO PRY THE PULLEY HOUSINGS OPEN TO REPLACE THE PULLEYS.
