IMPORTANT PRECAUTIONS

WARNING: To reduce the risk of serious injury, read the following important precau- tions before using the weight bench.

1.Read all instructions in this manual before using the weight bench. Use the weight bench only as described in this manual.

2.It is the responsibility of the owner to ensure that all users of the weight bench are ade- quately informed of all precautions.

3.The weight bench is intended for home use only. Do not use the weight bench in any commercial, rental, or institutional setting.

4.Use the weight bench only on a level sur- face. Cover the floor beneath the weight bench to protect the floor.

5.Make sure all parts are properly tightened each time the weight bench is used. Replace any worn parts immediately.

6.Keep children under 12 and pets away from the weight bench at all times.

7.Always wear athletic shoes for foot protec- tion while exercising.

8.Keep hands and feet away from moving parts.

9.Do not use a barbell that is longer than six feet with the weight bench. Note: The weight bench does not include a barbell or weights.

10.The weight bench is designed to support a maximum user weight of 300 pounds, and a maximum total weight of 410 pounds. Do not place more than 110 pounds, including a bar- bell and weights, on the weight rests. Do not place more than 50 pounds on the leg lever.

11.Always be sure there is an equal amount of weight on each side of your barbell when you are using it. Always keep some weight on both ends of the barbell when adding or removing weights to prevent the barbell from tipping.

12.When you are using the leg lever, place a barbell with the same amount of weight on the weight rests to balance the bench.

13.Always exercise with a partner. When you are performing bench press exercises, your partner should stand behind you to catch the barbell if you cannot complete a repetition.

14.When using the backrest in an inclined posi- tion, make sure that the support rod is inserted completely through both uprights, and that the support rod is turned to the locked position.

15.If you feel pain or dizziness at any time while exercising, stop immediately and begin cool- ing down.
