TROUBLESHOOTING
Make sure all parts are properly tightened each time the weight system is used. Replace any worn parts immedi-
ately. 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 before resistance is felt, 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 2. Remove the upper or lower M10
Nylon Locknut (87), M10 x 50mm Bolt (100), 90mm
Pulley (78), and Cable Trap (68) from a set of Pulley
Plates (63). Reattach the Pulley and the Cable Trap
between a set of holes closer to the center of the
Pulley Plates with the Bolt and Nylon Locknut. Make
sure the Cable Trap is turned to hold the Cable in
the groove of the Pulley.
See drawing 1. Remove the M10 Nylon Locknut (87),
M10 x 50mm Bolt (100), 90mm Pulley (78), and Cable
Trap (68) from the “U”-bracket (59). Reattach the
Pulley and the Cable Trap between the higher set of
holes in the “U”-bracket with the Bolt and Nylon
Locknut. Make sure the Cable Trap is turned to
hold the Cable in the groove of the Pulley.
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 re-install it.
If the cables need to be replaced, see ORDERING REPLACEMENT PARTS on the back cover of this manual.

See drawing 3. The threaded ends on the Dip Cable
(not shown) and the Squat Low Cable (72) attached
to the weight stacks, or the Leg Lever Cable (not
shown), can be used to tighten the cables.
To tighten the Squat Low Cable (72), remove the M8
x 45mm Bolt (108) and the M8 Nylon Locknut (71)
from the Small “U”-bracket (106) and the Short
Weight Tube (122).
Tighten the M8 Nylon Locknut (71) at the end of the
Squat Low Cable (72) a few turns. Re-attach the
Small “U”-bracket (106) to the Short Weight Tube
(122) with the M8 x 45mm Bolt (108) and the M8
Nylon Locknut (71).
The Dip Cable (not shown) or Leg Lever Cable (not
shown) can be tightened in the same manner.
