Connecting the Power

Rod® Unit to the Cables

You may use one rod or several rods in combination, to create your desired resistance level.

To hook multiple rods up to one cable, bend the closest rod toward the cable and place the cable hook through that rod cap. You can then hook up the next closest rod through the same cable hook.

Hooking up the closest rod first prevents rods from crossing over the top of one another.

Safety

When you attach the Power Rod® units do not stand directly looking above the top of the rods. Stay off to the side while you attach the rods.

When You Are Not Using Your Home Gym

Disconnect the cables from the Power Rod® unit when your are not using your home gym. Use the rod binding strap included with your machine to bind all the rods together at the top. You can also place your cables and grips through the strap to keep them out of the way. Leaving the rods and cables under tension could cause injury if a rod were inadvertantly released.

Keep the cables and Power Rod® units bound with the rod binding strap when not in operation.
