TROUBLE-SHOOTING AND MAINTENANCE

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

TIGHTENING THE CABLES

Woven cable, 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 by tightening the 1/4” Nylon Locknuts (82) at the end of the Long Cable (41) (see A, inset drawing) and at the end of the Short Cable

(42)(see B, inset drawing). To do this, you may need to remove the Small “U”-Bracket (25) from the Weight Tube (26), or remove the 3 1/2” Pulley (45) from the Long “U”-Bracket (50). Make sure that the cables are not too tight, or the Top Weight (24) will be lifted off the weight stack.

Additional slack can be removed by moving the 3 1/2” Pulley (45) to the lower hole in the Long “U”-Bracket (50). Remove the 3/8” Nylon Locknut (84) and the 3/8” x 2” Bolt (74) from the Cable Trap (44), Pulley, and “U”-Bracket. Re-attach the Pulley and Cable Trap with the Bolt and Locknut. Be sure that the Cable Trap is positioned to hold the Cable in place, and that the Cable and Pulley move smoothly.

Note: If a cable tends to slip 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.
