TROUBLESHOOTING

Inspect and tighten all parts each time the weight system is used. 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.

To tighten the cables, first insert the weight pin into the middle of the weight stack. Slack can be removed from these cables several ways:

See drawing 1. Loosen the 1/2” Plain Nut (45) on the Weight

the bolt a few turns into the Weight Tube (17). Retighten the

 

1/2” Plain Nut down onto the 1/2” Flat Washer.

Pulley Plates (23). Remove the 3 1/2” Pulley (24) and the

Cable Trap (25). Reattach the 3 1/2” Pulley and the Cable

Either set of Adjustable Pulley Plates (23) can be adjust-

 

 

 

ed in this manner.

Do not overtighten the cables. If the cables are over tightened, the top weight will be lifted off the weight stack. If a cable tends to slip off the pulleys often, it 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.
