ASSEMBLY  
Make sure you have the following tools:  
• Two adjustable wrenches  
Make Assembly Easier for Yourself  
Everything in this manual is designed to  
ensure that the weight system can be assem-  
bled successfully by most people. Before  
beginning assembly, make sure to read the  
information on this page. This brief intro-  
duction will save you much more time than  
it takes to read it.  
• One standard screwdriver  
• One phillips screwdriver  
• One rubber mallet  
You will also need grease or petroleum jelly, a  
small amount of soapy water, and clear tape or  
masking tape.  
Assembly Requires Two Persons  
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.  
For your convenience and safety, assemble the  
weight system with the help of another person.  
Set Aside Enough Time  
How to Identify Parts  
Due to the many features of the weight system, the  
assembly process will take a few hours. By setting  
aside plenty of time and by deciding to make the  
task enjoyable, assembly will go smoothly. You may  
want to assemble the weight system over a couple  
of evenings.  
To help you identify the small parts used in assembly,  
we have included a PART IDENTIFICATION CHART  
in the center of this manual. Place the chart on the  
floor and use it to easily identify parts during each  
assembly step. Note: Some small parts may have  
been pre-attached. If a part is not in the parts  
bag, check to see if it has been pre-attached.  
Select a Location for the Weight System  
How to Orient Parts  
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.  
As you assemble the weight system, make sure that  
all parts are oriented exactly as shown in the draw-  
ings.  
How to Unpack the Box  
Tightening Parts  
To make assembly as easy as possible, we have  
divided the assembly process into four stages. The  
parts needed for each stage are found in individual  
bags. Important: Wait until you begin each stage  
to open the parts bag for that stage. Place all  
parts of the weight system in a cleared area and  
remove the packing materials. Do not dispose of  
the packing materials until assembly is completed.  
Tighten all parts as you assemble them, unless  
instructed to do otherwise.  
Questions?  
If you have questions after reading the assembly  
instructions, please call our Customer Service  
Department at 1-888-825-2588.
