ADJUSTING THE SEAT POSITION

To adjust the position of the Seat (14) and Backrest (15), unscrew the Seat Adjustment Knob (47) until it is loose. Pull out on the Knob and move the Seat to the desired position by sliding the Seat Carriage (16) on the Bench Frame (5). Then release the Seat Adjustment Knob and let it snap into one of the holes in the Bench Frame. Finally, tighten the Seat Adjustment Knob.

ADJUSTING THE BENCH FOR SQUAT EXERCISES

To perform squat or toe raise exercises, fold the Backrest

(15)into the upright position by lifting and pulling it for- ward as far as it will go.

Remove the Adjustment Tube (29) from the Uprights (25, 26).

Raise the Weight Rests (27, 28) to the highest position (see ADJUSTING THE WEIGHT RESTS earlier in this section).

WARNING: Always fold the backrest out of the way when performing squat exercises. Do not sit on the seat when the backrest is folded.

WARNING: Always place 50 pounds on the leg lever when performing squat exercises to balance the bench.

WARNING: Do not stand with your back to the weight bench when performing squat exercises. You should be able to see the weight rests while exercising so that you can safely return the barbell when you finish the exercise.

USING THE WEIGHT STAND

The weight stand gives you a convenient way to store weights (not included) when they are not in use. Simply slide the weights onto the round tubes on the weight stand.
