Weider WEBE34100 manual Adjusting the Weight Bench, Using the Weight Rests and Safety Spotters

Adjusting the Weight Bench

This section explains how to adjust the weight bench. See the Exercise Guidelines on page 17 for important information about how to get the most benefit from your exercise program. Also, refer to the accompanying exer- cise poster to see the correct form for each exercise.

Inspect and tighten all parts each time you use the weight bench. Replace any worn parts immediately. The weight bench can be cleaned with a damp cloth and a mild, non-abrasive detergent. Do not use solvents.

USING THE WEIGHT RESTS AND SAFETY SPOTTERS

Before beginning an exercise, move the Weight Rests

(19)and the Safety Spotters (20) to sets of holes in the uprights that are best suited for that exercise. The selected holes for the Safety Spotters should represent the lowest point to which you want the barbell to go dur- ing the exercise. The selected holes for the Weight Rests should be at a comfortable height for lifting and replacing the barbell. Perform the exercise as shown in the accompanying Exercise Guide. Note: Make sure the Adjustment Knobs (22) are fully tightened.

WARNING: Always set both Weight Rests (19) at the same height and both Safety Spotters (20) at the same height.

SETTING UP THE BENCH FOR SQUAT EXERCISES

Squat exercises should be performed inside the rack (behind the dotted line in the picture). When performing squat exercises, set the Weight Rests (19) and the Safety Spotters (20) at a comfortable height, and move the bench away from the rack.

WARNING: Always move the bench when you are performing squat exercises inside the rack.
