HOW TO USE THE HOME GYM SYSTEM
The instructions below describe how each part of the home gym system can be adjusted. Refer to the exercise poster accompanying this manual to see how the home gym system should be set up for each exercise.
IMPORTANT: When attaching the lat bar or nylon strap, make sure that the attachments are in the cor- rect starting position for the exercise to be performed. If there is any slack in the cables or chain as an exercise is performed, the effectiveness of the exercise will be reduced.
CHANGING THE WEIGHT SETTING
The WEIDER 8530 features two weight stacks. The front weight stack is connected to the upper and lower pulleys, the press arm, and the butterfly arms. The rear weight stack is connected to the squat arm.
To change the weight setting of either weight stack, insert a Weight Pin (26) under the desired Weight (25). Insert the Weight Pin until the bent end of the Weight Pin is touching the Weights, and turn the bent end downward. The weight setting of either weight stack can be changed from 6.5 pounds to 106.5 pounds, in increments of 12.5 pounds. Note: Due to the cables and pulleys, the actual amount of resistance at each exercise station may vary from the weight setting. Use the WEIGHT RESISTANCE CHART on page 17 to find the approximate amount of resistance at each weight station.
ATTACHING THE LAT BAR OR NYLON STRAP TO THE HIGH PULLEY STATION
Attach the Lat Bar (54) to the Medium Cable (58) with a Cable Clip (53). For some exercises, the Chain (52) should be attached between the Lat Bar and the Medium Cable with two Cable Clips. Adjust the length of the Chain between the Lat Bar and the Medium Cable so the Lat Bar is in the correct starting position for the exercise to be performed.
The Nylon Strap (39) can be attached in the same manner.
ATTACHING THE LAT BAR OR NYLON STRAP TO THE LOW PULLEY STATION
Attach the Lat Bar (54) to the Short Cable (23) with a Cable Clip (53). For some exercises, the Chain (52) should be attached between the Lat Bar and the Short Cable with two Cable Clips. Adjust the length of the Chain between the Lat Bar and the Short Cable so the Lat Bar is in the correct starting position for the exercise to be performed.
The Nylon Strap (39) can be attached in the same manner.
