Important Safety Information for Users
Before beginning any fitness program, you should obtain a complete physical
examination from your physician.
Il est conseillé de subir un examen médical complet avant d’entreprendre
tout programme d’exercise. Si vous avez des étourdissements ou des
faiblesses, arrêtez les exercices immédiatement.
When using exercise equipment, you should always take basic precautions,
including the following:
• If you do not understand how to operate a piece of equipment, ask
someone from the facility such as a trainer to demonstrate how to use it
and explain any safety instructions.
• Do not allow children on or near the equipment. Do not leave children
unsupervised around the equipment.
• Use the equipment only for its intended purpose. Do not use accessory
attachments that are not recommended by the manufacturer, as such
attachments may cause injuries.
• Wear proper exercise clothing and shoes for your workout—no loose
clothing.
• Do not overexert yourself or work to exhaustion. Use reasonable
judgment when working with weights. Avoid using excessive weight, which
may cause injury.
• If you feel pain or abnormal symptoms, stop exercising immediately and
consult your physician.
• Keep head, limbs, fingers, and hair clear of all moving parts while the
equipment is in use. Keep hands clear of racking pegs.
• Never drop or insert objects into any opening in the equipment.
• Always check the equipment before using it. If you spot a potential
problem, contact someone in the facility immediately. Do not use the
equipment until the facility has verified that the equipment is working
properly. Do not attempt to fix a broken or jammed machine.
• Do not use the equipment outdoors or on wet surfaces.
• Do not drop or slam the weight stack while exercising.
• Be sure the selector pin is completely inserted. Use only the pin provided
by the manufacturer. If unsure, contact someone in the facility.
• Never pin the weights in an elevated position. Do not use the equipment if
the top plate or weight stack is pinned in a raised position. Notify the
facility’s personnel to repair the equipment and ensure that it is working
properly.
• Do not use the equipment if an “out of order” sign has been placed on it.
• Read all posted instructions, including all safety instructions and
warnings.
