Preparing for Use, Storing, and Moving

The Bowflex Revolution® XP home gym offers one of the largest ranges of exercises ever offered by a Bowflex® home gym. Preparing your machine for use and maintaining your machine are simple.

Preparing for Use

Before using your Bowflex Revolution® XP home gym, make sure you read through all of the safety warnings in this manual, and pay close heed to the warning labels on the machine. Additionally, inspect the machine prior to each use to ensure all parts are in good working order.

Preparing to Exercise

To do exercises, read the instructions in this manual or on the exercise poster included with your machine. Each exercise uses a unique set of adjustable arm positions and cable connections. Using your Bowflex Revolution® XP home gym should be easy:

•Select the desired resistance packs

•Position the adjustable arms to the correct setting

•Attach cable clips to appropriate location

•Complete the exercise

A full description of each exercise is included later in this manual.

Moving & Storing Your Machine

The full assembled weight of your machine is in excess of 200 lbs. It is imperative that you observe all safety warnings and cautions when using or moving your machine. To move your machine, raise the adjustable arms to the 0 position and make sure they are locked in place. Hook the D-handle Hand Grips to the hooks at the front of the Standing Platform. Carefully lift the front of the machine to shift its weight to the back transport wheels. You can now roll the machine.

Raise adjustable arms to 0 position (see above photo) and lock in place. Attach hand grips to loops at the front of the Standing Platform.

To move the machine, use hand grips to lift the front of the unit and shift its weight onto the transport wheels at the back of the base.
