13.When you put weight on the weight rests, make sure you put at least ten pounds on the leg lever to balance the weight bench.

14.Make sure that the adjustment knobs are inserted completely and tightened into the uprights before beginning any exercise.

15.When adjusting the position of the seat, make sure that the adjustment pin is inserted through both adjustment tubes before begin- ning any exercise.
