Assembly

Before beginning assembly, carefully read the following information and instructions:

Make Things Easier for Yourself!

Everything in this manual is designed to ensure that the assembly of our products can be complet- ed successfully by anyone. However, it is impor- tant to recognize that your new equipment is a sophisticated product with many small parts and consequently, the assembly process will take time. Most people find that by setting aside plenty of time, and by deciding to make the task enjoy- able, assembly will go smoothly.

¥Assembly requires two people.

¥Place all parts in a cleared area and remove the packing materials. Do not dispose of the packing materials until assembly is completed.

¥Tighten all parts as you assemble them, unless instructed to do otherwise.

¥For help identifying the small parts, use the PART IDENTIFICATION CHART on page 5.

¥As you assemble the weight bench, make sure all parts are oriented as shown in the drawings.

The following tools (not included) are required for assembly:

¥ Two (2) adjustable wrenches

¥ One (1) rubber mallet

¥ One (1) standard screwdriver

¥ One (1) phillips screwdriver

¥Lubricant, such as grease or petroleum jelly plus soapy water.
