Weider pro 4850 Weight System
ASSEMBLY
Make Assembly Easier
Everything in this manual is designed to ensure that the weight system can be assem- bled successfully by anyone.
Before beginning assembly, make sure to read the information on this page. This brief introduction will save you much more time than it takes to read it.
Assembly Requires Two Persons
For your convenience and safety, assemble the weight system with the help of another person.
Set Aside Enough Time
Due to the many features of the weight system, the assembly process will require several hours. By setting aside plenty of time and by deciding to make the task enjoyable, assembly will go smoothly.
Select a Location for the Weight System
Because of its weight and size, the weight system should be assembled in the location where it will be used. Make sure that there is enough room to walk around the weight system as you assemble it.
How to Unpack the Box
To make assembly easier, we have divided the assembly process into four stages. The small hard- ware needed for each stage is packaged in sepa- rate bags. Important: Wait until you begin each stage to open the parts bag(s) for that stage. Place all parts of the weight system in a cleared area and remove the packing materials. Do not dis- pose of the packing materials until assembly is com- pleted.
Make sure that you have the following tools:
- Two adjustable wrenches
- One standard screwdriver
- One phillips screwdriver
- One rubber mallet
- You will also need grease or petroleum jelly, a small amount of soapy water, and masking tape.
Note: Assembly will be more convenient if you have a socket set, a set of open-end or closed-end wrenches, or a set of ratchet wrenches.
How to Identify Parts
To help you identify the small parts used in assembly, a PART IDENTIFICATION CHART is included in the center of this manual. Lay the chart on the floor and use it to easily identify parts during each assembly tep. Note: Some small parts may have been pre- ttached. If a part is not in the parts bag, check to see if it has been pre-attached.
How to Orient Parts
As you assemble the weight system, make sure that all parts are oriented exactly as shown in the drawing..
Tightening Parts
Tighten all parts as you assemble them, unless instructed to do otherwise.

ADJUSTMENTS
The instructions below describe how each part of the weight system can be adjusted. Refer to the exercise guide accompanying this manual to see how the weight system should be set up for various exercises. IMPORTANT: When attaching the lat bar, row bar, or handle, make sure that the attachments are in the correct starting position for the exercise to be performed. If there is any slack in the cables or chain as an exercise is performed, the effectiveness of the exercise will be reduced.
CHANGING THE WEIGHT SETTING
To change the weight setting of either weight stack, insert a Weight Pin (50) under the desired Weight (44) until the bent end of the Weight Pin is touching the Weights. Turn the bent end downward. The weight setting of each weight stack can be changed from 10 pounds to 110 pounds, in 10-pound increments. Note: Due to the cables and pulleys, the amount of resistance at each exercise station may vary from the weight setting. Use the WEIGHT RESISTANCE CHART on page 24 to find the approximate amount of resistance at each weight station.
ATTACHING THE ACCESSORIES TO THE HIGH PULLEY STATION OR THE LOW PULLEY STATION
Attach the Lat Bar (79) to the Lat Cable (88) with a Cable Clip (83). For some exercises, the Chain (81) should be attached between the Lat Bar and the Lat Cable with two Cable Clips. Adjust the length of the Chain between the Lat Bar and the Lat Cable so the Lat Bar is in the correct starting position for the exercise to be performed.
The Lat Bar (79) can be attached to the Swivel Low Cable (not shown) in the same way. The Row Bar (not shown), the Handle (not shown), or the Ab Strap (not shown) can be attached to the Lat Cable (88) or the Swivel Low Cable (not shown) in the same way.
CONVERTING THE BUTTERFLY ARMS
To use the Butterfly Arms (25, 26) as butterfly arms, insert the “L”-pins with w/Tethers (60) into the butterfly holes in the Butterfly Upright (3). To use the Butterfly Arms (25, 26) as press arms, insert the “L”-pins with w/Tethers (60) into the press holes in the Butterfly Frame (47). Make sure that both “L” pins with w/Tethers (60) are fully inserted into the same set of holes before performing any exercise.
ADJUSTING THE SQUAT ARM OR SWIVEL CARRIAGE
To adjust the height of the Squat Arm (32), first turn the Adjustment Knob (115) on the Squat Bracket (37) counterclockwise several turns to loosen it. Next, pull the Handle and slide the Squat Bracket up or down to the desired position. Engage the Handle into one of the holes in the Squat Slider (not shown), and then turn the Handle clockwise until it is tight.
The height of the Swivel Carriage (not shown) can be adjusted in the same way using the Adjustment Handle (not shown).
ADJUSTING THE SQUAT KNEE REST
To use the Squat Knee Rest (41), pivot it down to the position shown and insert the Pin w/Tether (112) into the holes in the Squat Knee Rest and the Long Base (106). When the Squat Knee Rest (41) is not in use, pivot it up to a vertical position and then insert the Pin w/Tether (112) into the hole in the Long Base (106).
ATTACHING THE CURL PAD
To use the Curl Pad (11), remove the 50mm x 75mm Inner Cap (58) from the Seat Upright (9). Insert the Curl Post (12) into the Seat Upright and secure it with the M10 x 20mm Knob (117). Replace the 50mm x 75mm Inner Cap (58) when the Curl Post (12) is removed. Do not press the Cap all the way into the Seat Upright (9).
WEIGHT RESISTANCE CHART
The chart below shows the approximate weight resistance at each weight station. “Top” refers to the 10-pound top weight. The other numbers refer to the 10-pound weight plates. The butterfly arm resistance listed is the resistance for each butterfly arm. Note: The actual resistance at each weight station may vary due to differences in individual weight plates as well as friction between the cables, pulleys, and weight guides.
TROUBLESHOOTING
Make sure all parts are properly tightened each time the weight system is used. Replace any worn parts immedi y. 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, resistance is felt before. 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 Squat Cable (73) or the Swivel High Cable (not shown), first loosen the M12 Nut (118) on the end of the Cable, away from the 50mm Washer (1). Screw the end of the Cable farther into the Weight Tube (43). Then, retighten the Nut against the Washer.
See drawing 2. To further tighten the Squat Cable (73), first remove the M10 Nylon Locknut (87), the M10 x 50mm Bolt (100), Cable Trap (68), and 90mm Pulley (78) from the indicated bracket on the Long Base (106). Reattach the Pulley and Cable Trap between a lower set of holes with the Bolt and Nylon Locknut.
See drawing 3. To tighten the other five cables, first remove the upper or lower M10 Nylon Locknut (87), M10 x 50mm Bolt (100), 90mm Pulley (78), and Cable Trap (68) from the Pulley Plates (63) or Small Pulley Plates (not shown). 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.
See drawing 4. To remove additional slack, first remove the M10 Nylon Locknut (87), M10 x 50mm Bolt (100), 90mm Pulley (78), and Cable Trap (68) from the “U”-bracket (64). Reattach the Pulley and the Cable Trap between the higher set of holes in the “U’-bracket with the Bolt and Nylon Locknut.
Slack can also be removed from the cables by tightening the M8 Nylon Locknut (86) at the end of the Leg Lever Cable (75). To do this, you may need to remove the 90mm Pulley (78) from the “U”-Bracket (64).
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 reinstall it. if the cables need to be replaced, see ORDERING REPLACEMENT PARTS on the back cover of this manual.
CABLE DIAGRAMS
The cable identification chart below shows the ends of each cable and the lengths of the cables. The cable diagrams on this page and the following page show the proper routing of the cables. The numbers in the diagrams show the routes of the cables. Use the diagrams to make sure that the cables have been assembled correctly.
IMPORTANT: If the cables have not been correctly routed, the weight system will not function properly, and damage may occur.
