ADJUSTING THE CABLE TENSION

Woven cable, the type of cable used on the weight system, can stretch slightly when it is first used. If there is slack in the cables before resistance is felt, the cables should be tightened.

See drawing A. Slack can be removed by moving the 3 1/2” Pulley (38) and Cable Trap (91) to a higher set of holes in a Double “U”-Bracket (56). Remove the 3/8” Nylon Locknut (70) and the 3/8” x 2” Bolt (62) from the Cable Trap, the Pulley, and the Double “U”-Bracket. Re-attach the Pulley and the Cable Trap to the new set of holes in the Double “U”-Bracket with the Bolt and Locknut. Make sure that the Cable Trap is in the proper position and that the Cable and Pulley move smoothly.

Move the 3 1/2” Pulley (38) in the other Double “U”- Bracket (56) in the same manner.

See drawing B. Slack can be removed by moving the

3 1/2” Pulley (38) and the Cable Trap (91) to the higher set of holes in a “U”-Bracket (85). Remove the 3/8” Nylon Locknut (70) and the 3/8” x 2” Bolt (62) from the Cable Trap, the Pulley, and the “U”-Bracket. Re-attach the Pulley and the Cable Trap to the higher set of holes in the “U”-Bracket with the Bolt and Locknut.Make sure that the Cable Trap is in the proper position and that the Cable and Pulley move smoothly.

Move the 3 1/2” Pulley (38) in the other “U”-Bracket (85) in the same manner.

See drawing B. Slack can also be removed from the cables by tightening the 1/4” Nylon Locknuts (65) attaching a cable to either “U”-Bracket (85), or the Small “U”-Bracket (79). To do this, you may need to remove the 3 1/2” Pulley (38) from the “U”-Bracket, or remove the Small “U”-Bracket from the Weight Tube (not shown). Make sure that the cables are not too tight or the Top Weight (74) will be lifted off the weight stack.
