TROUBLESHOOTING

Make sure all parts are properly tightened each time the weight system is used. Replace any worn parts immedi- ately. 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 pins into the centers of the weight stacks. Slack can be removed from the cables in several ways:

See drawing 1. To tighten the Lat Cable (62) or the Upper Short Stack Cable (not shown), first loosen the M12 Nut (58) on the end of the Cable away from the 50mm Washer (95). Screw the end of the Cable far- ther into the Long Weight Tube (23) or the Short Weight Tube (not shown). Finally, retighten the Locknut against the Washer.

See drawing 2. Slack can be removed from the cables by moving a 100mm Pulley (38) in the Pulley Plates (41). First, remove the upper or lower M10 Nylon Locknut (101), M10 x 50mm Bolt (81), Pulley, and Long Cable Trap (68) from the Pulley Plates. Reattach the Pulley and the Cable Trap between a set of holes closer to the center of the Pulley Plates with the Bolt and Locknut. Make sure the Cable Trap is oriented to hold the cable in the groove of the Pulley.

See drawing 3. To remove additional slack, remove the M10 Nylon Locknut (101), M10 x 50mm Bolt (81), 100mm Pulley (38), and Long Cable Trap (68) from either “U”-bracket (40). Reattach the Pulley and the Cable Trap between the indicated set of holes in the “U”-bracket with the Bolt and Locknut.

See drawing 4. Slack can also be removed from the cables by tightening the M8 Nylon Locknut (87) at the end of the Leg Press Cable (65) or the Butterfly Cable (67). To do this you may need to remove the 100mm Pulley (38) from the “U”-bracket (40).

Do not overtighten the cables. If the cables are overtightened, the top weights will be lifted off the weight stacks.

If a cable slips off the pulleys repeatedly, 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.
