ADJUSTING THE BACKREST
The Backrest (15) can be adjusted to a level position and several decline and incline positions.
To increase the incline of the Backrest (15), simply pull up on the Backrest until the tube on the Backrest Adjustment Bracket (39) locks into the desired tab on the Bench Frame (5). To decrease the incline, pull up slightly on the Backrest, swing out the Backrest Adjustment Bracket and then lower the Backrest until the Adjustment Bracket locks into the desired tab on the Frame.
WARNING: Always make sure the tube on the back- rest adjustment bracket is securely locked into one of the adjustment tabs on the bench frame before putting any weight on the backrest.
ATTACHING WEIGHTS TO THE LEG LEVER
To use the Leg Lever (18), slide the desired amount of weight onto the weight tube.
WARNING: Do not place more than 150 pounds on the leg lever. Always secure the weights with a Weight Clip (13) when you have mounted them on the leg lever, barbell or curl barbell.
SETTING UP THE BENCH FOR SQUAT EXERCISES
When performing squat exercises, place the Weight Rests (21) into one of the upper sets of adjustment holes in the two Uprights (1). Place the Safety Spotters (26) a few holes lower, so they can catch the barbell, if you acci- dentally drop it.
WARNING: Always move the bench when you are performing standing exercises in the cage. Stand inside the area that is shaded in the drawing.

ATTACHING THE CURL POST
For some exercises, the Curl Post (42) must be attached to the weight bench.
Insert the Curl Post (42) into the indicated hole in the Front Leg (19). Align the holes in the Front Leg and the Curl Post. Secure the Curl Post with the Adjustment Knob (36). Make sure that you fully tighten the Adjustment
Knob.
WARNING: When the curl post is not in use, store it away from the bench, so it will not interfere with the next exercise you perform.
