1. HOW TO USE THE HOME GYM SYSTEM The instructions below describe how each part of the home gym system can be adjusted Refer to the exercise poster accompanying this manual to see how the home gym system should be set up for each exercise IMPORTANT When attaching the lat bar or nylon strap make sure that the attachments are in the cor rect starting position for the exercise to be performed If there is any slack in the cables or chain as an exercise is performed the effectiveness of the exercise will be reduced CHANGING THE WEIGHT SETTING The WEIDER 8530 features two weight stacks The front weight stack is connected to the upper and lower pulleys the press arm and the butterfly arms The rear weight stack is connected to the squat arm To change the weight setting of either weight stack insert a Weight Pin 26 under the desired Weight 25 Insert the Weight Pin until the bent end of the Weight Pin is touching the Weights and turn the bent end downward The weight setting of either weight stack can be changed from 6 5 pounds to 106 5 pounds in increments of 12 5 pounds Note Due to the cables and pulleys the actual amount of resistance at each exercise station may vary from the weight setting Use the WEIGHT RESISTANCE CHART on page 18 to find the approximate amount of resistance at each weight station2.
