TROUBLE-SHOOTING AND MAINTENANCE

TIGHTENING THE CABLES

If a cable slips off the pulleys often, the cable may have become twisted. Remove the cable and re-install it. If the cables need to be replaced, see ORDERING REPLACEMENT PARTS on the back cover of this manual.

The type of cable used on the weight system can stretch slightly when it is first used. If there is slack in the cables before resistance is felt, the cables should be tightened. Slack can be removed from the cables in two different ways:

The Pulley Plates (43) have several sets of adjust- ment holes. By moving one or both 3 1/2” Pulleys

(37)to a different set of holes, you will tighten the cables.

To move a 3 1/2” Pulley (37), remove the 3/8” Nylon Locknut (74) and the 3/8” x 2” Bolt (79) from the Pulley, Cable Trap (44) and Pulley Plates (43). Re- attach the Pulley and Cable Trap to the appropriate adjustment hole in the Pulley Plates with the Bolt and Nylon Locknut. Note: Begin by moving one Pulley to the second adjustment hole. If the cables are still too loose, move the same Pulley to the third hole. If additional adjustment is needed, move the other Pulley until the cables are tight.

Slack can be removed form the Press Cable (80) by moving the indicated “V”-Pulley (38) to one of the four free holes in the Press Seat Frame (12). Remove the 3/8” x 4 1/4” Bolt (104), 3/8” Washer (75), and 3/8” Nylon Locknut (74) from the Press Seat Frame, Pulley, and Long Cable Trap (50). Reattach the Pulley and Long Cable Trap to the next hole with the Bolt, Washer, and Nylon Locknut. Move the Pulley away from the Leg Press Arm (22) one hole at a time, until the Cable is tight.

Be sure the Long Cable Trap (50) is positioned to hold the Press Cable (80) in the groove of the “V”- Pulley (38).
