This section explains how to adjust the resistance system. See the EXERCISE GUIDELINES on page 16 for
important information about how to get the most benefit from your exercise program. Also, refer to the accompa-
nying exercise guide to see the correct form for each exercise.
Make sure all parts are properly tightened each time the resistance system is used. Replace worn parts immedi-
ately. The resistance system can be cleaned with a damp cloth and a mild, non-abrasive detergent. Do not use
solvents. The resistance bars can be cleaned with a vinyl and rubber protectant, available at an automotive or
department store.

ADJUSTMENTS
ADJUSTING THE SEAT
The Seat (13) can be secured in any of five positions
on the Bench Rail (5). To move the Seat, pull the
Seat Knob (45) out as far as it will go, and slide the
Seat to the desired position. Engage the Seat Knob
into an adjustment hole in the Bench Rail.
Note: It
may be necessary to lift up on the Seat in order to
engage the Seat Knob.
To perform row exercises, the leg press strap must be
attached to the long cable (see ATTACHING THE
ACCESSORIES, on page 13), and the Seat Carriage
(12) must be able to roll along the Bench Rail (5).
First, remove the Backrest (14) from the Seat
Carriage (see ADJUSTING THE BACKREST, below).
Then, pull the Seat Knob (45) out as far as it will go,
and turn the Knob so that the pin rests at the end of
the “L”-shaped slot (see the inset drawing).

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