The Workout Bench
Your Bowflex® Blaze™ home gym has a number
of seat and bench positions: flat bench forward,
flat bench back, 45° incline and free-sliding seat
extension.
To adjust the seat, pull out the Seat Rail Knob, then
slide the seat to one of the three locking holes on
the Seat Rail.
Release the Seat Rail Knob to secure when finished.
Removing the Bench:
The Bench easily attaches and releases from the
Seat. To attach the Bench, insert the half hinge
on the end of the Bench into the half hinge on
the seat. To remove the Bench, lift up on the long
portion and pull away from seat.
Flat Bench:
The Flat bench position is used for
most exercises. You may lock the
bench into a Back (closest to Power
Rod ® unit) or Forward (farthest
from Power Rod ® unit) position to
accommodate height/reach needs.
45° Incline Bench:
Start with a flat bench, following the
above instructions to release and
move the seat and bench. Lift the
bench while sliding the seat toward
the Power Rod ® unit until the bench
back is resting against the Lat Tower.
Leg Extension:
Refer to page A-12 of the Assembly
Manual for instructions on installing
the Leg Extension Seat.
Free-Sliding Seat:
Remove the Bench, pull out the Seat Rail Knob,
give it half a turn and release to place the Seat in a
“free sliding” position for Aerobic Rowing.
Storing Your Bowflex® Blaze ™ Home Gym
Folding your Bowflex® Blaze™ home gym for
storage is easy.
1) Lock the Seat and Bench into the flat position.

4) Remove the Seat Rail Knob from the seat rail.
5) Tilt the bench toward the Power Rod ® unit.
6) While holding the Rear Leg with one hand,
disengage the seat Rail Pull Pin to allow the
Rear Leg to fold against the Seat Rail. (See

Knob into the hole in the side of the Seat Rail
Bracket.
Maintenance and Care of Your Bowflex®
Blaze ™ Home Gym
Inspect your machine for any worn
or loose components prior to use.
Tighten or replace any worn or loose
components prior to use. Pay close
attention to cables, or belts and their
connections.
Clean the bench with a non-abrasive
household cleanser after each use.
This will keep it looking new. Do not
use automotive cleaner, which can
make the bench too “slick.”
Review all warning notices. The
safety and integrity designed into
a machine can only be maintained
when the equipment is regularly
examined for damage and repaired.
It is the sole responsibility of the
owner to ensure that regular
maintenance is performed. Worn
or damaged components shall be
replaced immediately or the equipment removed
from service until the repair is made. Only
manufacturer supplied components shall be used to
maintain/repair the equipment.
