Weider 740 user manual Assembly, To complete the process over a couple of evenings

Assembly

Note: This introduction will save you more time than it takes to read it.

Making Things Easier for Yourself

This manual is designed to ensure that the weight system can be assembled successfully

by anyone. However, it is important to recognize that the weight system has many parts and that the assembly process will require several hours. Most people find that by setting aside plenty of time, and by deciding to make the task enjoy- able, assembly will go smoothly. You may want

to complete the process over a couple of evenings.

Clearing a Workspace

Clear a workspace that is large enough to hold all parts and allow you to walk all the way around the assembled weight system.

Unpacking the Box

To make the assembly process as smooth as possi-

ble, we have divided it into separate stages. All parts used in each stage are found in individual packages in the shipping box. Place all parts in a cleared area and remove the packing materials. Do not dispose of the packing materials until assembly is completed.

Important: Wait until you begin each assembly stage to open the parts bag labeled for that stage.

Identifying Parts

To help you identify the small parts used in assem- bly, we have included a PART IDENTIFICATION CHART in the centre of this manual. Place the chart on the floor and use it to easily identify parts. Note: Some small parts may have been pre-attached for shipping. If a part is not in the parts bag, check to see if it has been pre-attached.

Orienting Parts

As you assemble this product, be sure that all parts are oriented as shown in the drawings.

Tightening Parts

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

Tools Required

Assembly requires the following tools (not included):

• Two (2) adjustable wrenches

• One (1) standard screwdriver

• One (1) phillips screwdriver

• One (1) rubber mallet

•Lubricant, such as grease or petroleum jelly, and soapy water

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

The Three Stages of the Assembly Process

Frame Assembly

You will begin by assembling the base and the upright frames that serve as the skeleton of the equipment.

Arm Assembly

During this stage you will assemble the press/but- terfly arms.

Cable/Seat Assembly

During the final stage, you will attach the cables and pulleys that connect the arms with each other and with the weights. The seat and backrest will also be attached during this stage.
