Assembly

Make Assembly Easier

Everything in this manual is designed to ensure that the weight system can be assem- bled successfully by almost anyone. Before beginning assembly, make sure to read the information on this page. This brief intro- duction will save you much more time than it takes to read it.

Assembly Requires Two Persons

For your convenience and safety, assemble the weight system with the help of another person.

Set Aside Enough Time

Assembling the weight system may require several hours. By deciding to make the task enjoyable, assembly will go smoothly. You may want to assem- ble the weight system over a couple of evenings.

Select a Location for the Weight System

Because of its weight and size, the weight system should be assembled in the location where it will be used. Make sure that there is enough clearance to walk around the weight system as you assemble it.

How to Unpack the Box

To make assembly as easy as possible, we have divided the assembly process into four stages. The parts needed for each stage are found in individual packages. Important: Wait until you begin each stage to open the parts package for that stage. Place all parts of the weight system in a cleared

area and remove the packing materials. Do not dis- pose of the packing materials until assembly is com- pleted.

The included hex keys and grease, and the following tools (not included) may be required for assembly:

• Two adjustable wrenches

• One standard screwdriver

• One phillips screwdriver

• One rubber mallet

•A small amount of soapy water, and clear tape or masking tape.

Note: Assembly may be more convenient if you have a socket set, a set of open-end or closed-end wrenches, or a set of ratchet wrenches.

How to Identify Parts

Refer to the PART IDENTIFICATION CHART in the center of this manual to identify the small parts used in assembly. Note: Some small parts may have been pre-attached. If a part is not in the parts bag, check to see if it has been pre-attached.

How to Orient Parts

As you assemble the weight system, make sure all parts are oriented exactly as shown in the drawings.

Tightening Parts

Tighten all parts as you assemble them, unless instructed to do otherwise.
