IMPORTANT PRECAUTIONS
1. It is the responsibility of the owner to ensure
that all users of the weight system are
adequately informed of all precautions.
2. Before beginning any exercise program,
consult your physician. This is especially
important for persons over age 35 or persons
with pre-existing health problems.
3. Use the weight system only as described in
this manual.
4. The weight system is intended for home use
only. Do not use the weight system in a com-
mercial, rental, or institutional setting.
5. Keep the weight system indoors, away from
moisture and dust. Do not put the weight
system in a garage or covered patio, or near
water.
6. Place the weight system on a level surface,
with a mat beneath it to protect the floor or
carpet. Make sure that there is enough clear-
ance around the weight system to mount,
dismount, and use the weight system.
7. Inspect and properly tighten all parts regu-
larly. Replace any worn parts immediately.
8. Keep children under age 12 and pets away
from the weight system at all times.
9. The weight system should not be used by
persons weighing more than 300 lbs.
(136 kg).
10. Wear appropriate exercise clothes while exer-
cising; do not wear loose clothes that could
become caught on the weight system. Always
wear athletic shoes for foot protection.
11. Keep hands and feet away from moving
parts.
12. Always secure the weight stack with the
lock pin and the lock after exercising to
prevent unauthorized use of the weight sys-
tem (see LOCKING THE WEIGHT STACK on
page 37).
13. Make sure that the cables remain on the pul-
leys at all times. If the cables bind while you
are exercising, stop immediately and make
sure that the cables are on the pulleys.
14. Always stand on the foot plate when perform-
ing an exercise that could cause the weight
system to tip.
15. Never release the arms, leg lever, lat bar,
handle, ankle strap, or double strap while
weights are raised. The weights will fall with
great force.
16. Always disconnect the lat bar from the
weight system when performing an exercise
that does not require the lat bar.
17. Over exercising may result in serious injury
or death. If you feel faint or if you experience
pain while exercising, stop immediately and
cool down.

To reduce the risk of serious injury, read all important precautions and

tem. Sears assumes no responsibility for personal injury or property damage sustained by or
