USING THE WEIGHT RESTS AND WEIGHT
SPOTTERS
Before beginning an exercise, move the Weight Rests
(19) and the Weight Spotters (20) to sets of holes in the
Uprights (7,8) that are best suited for that exercise. Do
this by turning the Adjustment Knobs (22) counterclock-
wise until loose. Pull the Knobs out and slide the
Weight Rests or the Weight Spotters to the desired
height. Snap the Knobs into the adjustment holes on
the Uprights and turn the Knob clockwise until tight.
The selected holes for the Weight Spotters (20) should
represent the lowest point to which you want the barbell
to go during the exercise. The selected holes for the
Weight Rests (19) should be at a comfortable height for
lifting and replacing the barbell. Perform the exercise as
shown in the accompanying Exercise Poster. Note:
Make sure the Adjustment Knobs (22) are fully tight-
ened.
WARNING:
Always set both Weight
Rests (19) at the same height and both Weight
Spotters (20) at the same height.

This section explains how to adjust the weight rack. See the Exercise Guidelines on page 13 for important infor-
mation about how to get the most benefit from your exercise program. Also, refer to the accompanying exercise
poster to see the correct form for each exercise.
Inspect and tighten all parts each time you use the weight rack. Replace any worn parts immediately. The weight
rack can be cleaned with a damp cloth and a mild, non-abrasive detergent. Do not use solvents.
