IMPORTANT PRECAUTIONS

WARNING: To reduce the risk of serious injury, read all important precautions and instructions in this manual and all warnings on your weight system before using your weight system. ICON assumes no responsibility for personal injury or property damage sustained by or through the use of this product.

It is the responsibility of the owner to ensure that all users of the weight system are adequately informed of all precautions.
Before beginning any exercise program, consult your physician. This is especially important for persons over age 35 or persons
with pre-existing health problems.
Use the weight system only as described in this manual.
The weight system is intended for home use only. Do not use the weight system in a commercial, rental, or institutional setting.
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.
Use the weight system only on a level surface. Cover the floor beneath the weight system to protect the floor.
Inspect and properly tighten all parts regularly. Replace any worn parts immediately.
Keep children under age 12 and pets away from the weight system at all times.
The weight system should not be used by persons weighing more than 300 lbs. (136 kg).
Wear appropriate exercise clothes while exercising; do not wear loose clothes that could become caught on the weight system. Always wear athletic shoes for foot protection.
Keep hands and feet away from moving parts.
Always secure the weight stack with the lock pin and the lock after exercising to prevent unauthorized use of the weight system (see LOCKING THE WEIGHT STACK on page 24).
Make sure that the cables remain on the pulleys at all times. If the cables bind while you are exercising, stop immediately and make sure that the cables are on the pulleys.
Always stand on the foot plate when performing an exercise that could cause the weight system to tip.
Never release the arms, leg lever, lat bar, or handle strap while weights are raised. The weights will fall with great force.
Always disconnect the lat bar from the weight system when performing an exercise that does not require the lat bar.
Over-exercising may result in serious injury or death. If you feel faint, if you become short of breath, or if you experience pain while exercising, stop immediately and cool down.

PART IDENTIFICATION CHART

Use the drawings below to identify small parts used in assembly. The number in parentheses by each drawing is the key number of the part, from the PART LIST near the end of this manual.

Note: If a part is not in the hardware kit, check to see if it has been preattached.

ASSEMBLY

To make assembly easier, carefully read the following information and instructions:

To hire an authorized service technician to assemble the weight system, call 1-800-445-2480.
The assembly requires two persons.
Because of its weight and size, assemble the weight system in the location where it will be used. Make sure that there is enough clearance to walk around the weight system.
Place all parts in a cleared area and remove the packing materials. Do not dispose of the packing materials until assembly is completed.
For help identifying small parts, see page 6.
The following tools (not included) may be required for assembly:

two adjustable wrenches
one rubber mallet
one standard screwdriver
one Phillips screwdriver

Assembly may be easier if you have your own set of wrenches.

WEIGHT RESISTANCE CHART

CABLE DIAGRAM

The drawings below show the proper routing of the cables. The numbers in each drawing show the proper route of that cable. Use the drawings to make sure that the cables, cable traps, and guards are assembled correctly. If the cables are not assembled correctly, the weight system will not function properly, and damage may occur. Make sure that the cable traps do not touch or bind the cables.
