ADJUSTING THE BACKREST

The Backrest (14) can be used in a level position or one of three inclined positions. To use the Backrest in a level position, secure the Seat Carriage (12) to the adjustment hole in the Bench Rail (5) next to the Front Leg (6) (see ADJUSTING THE SEAT on page 13).

To use the Backrest (14) in an inclined position, secure the Seat Frame (12) to one of the other three adjustment holes in the Bench Rail (5). Rest the Backrest against the Upright (3).

For row exercises, remove the Backrest (14). Hold the Backrest vertically over the Seat (13) and lift the rod out of the slot in the Seat Carriage (12) (see the inset drawing).

STORING THE RESISTANCE SYSTEM

To store the resistance system, slide the ends of the Leg Lever Cable (32) onto the hook on the bottom of the Bench Rail (5). Be sure the Seat (13) is in the position closest to the Front Leg (6) (see ADJUSTING THE SEAT on page 13). Next, remove the Storage Knob (30) from the Upright (3). Lift the Front Leg toward the Top Frame (10), and tighten the Storage Knob into the side of the Upright and the Bench Rail. Remove all of the resistance bars from the “U”-chan- nels on the 10-pound Center Resistance Bar (44) (see ADJUSTING THE RESISTANCE on page 14). Finally, loosen the Fulcrum Knob (43) and pull it out as far as it will go. Turn the resistance bar assembly vertically and engage the Fulcrum Knob into the ful- crum on the Lat Tower (4). Note: Storing the resist- ance bars vertically will prolong the life of the resistance bars.

To move the resistance system, place the toe of your shoe on the end of the Base (1) and hold the resist- ance system in the indicated area. Tilt the resistance system back onto the Wheels (31) and roll it to the new location. Be careful not to let the Front Leg (6) or Leg Lever (7) pinch your hands when you tilt the system back.

WARNING: Make sure that all of the resistance bars are removed from the “U”- channels before moving the resistance bar assembly to the stored position.

Make sure that the resistance bar assembly is in the horizontal position and that the Storage Knob (30) is in place and fully tightened each time the resistance system is used.
