IMPORTANT PRECAUTIONS
1.  It is the responsibility of the owner to ensure 
that all users of the weight bench are ade-
quately informed of all precautions. 
2.  Before beginning any exercise program, 
consult your physician. This is especially 
important for persons over age 35 or per-
sons with pre-existing health problems.
3.  Use the weight bench only as described in 
this manual. 
4.  The weight bench is intended for home use 
only. Do not use the weight bench in a com-
mercial, rental, or institutional setting.
5.  Keep the weight bench indoors, away from 
moisture and dust. Do not put the weight 
bench in a garage or covered patio, or near 
water. 
6.  Place the weight bench on a level surface, 
with enough clearance around the weight 
bench to mount, dismount, and use the 
weight bench. 
7.  Inspect and properly tighten all parts regu-
larly. Replace any worn parts immediately.
8.  Keep children under age 12 and pets away 
from the weight bench at all times.
9.  Always wear athletic shoes for foot protec-
tion while using the weight bench.
10. The weight bench is designed to support a 
maximum user weight of 300 lbs. (136 kg), 
and a maximum total weight of 510 lbs. (231 
kg). Do not place more than 210 lbs. (95 
kg), including a barbell and weights, on the 
weight rests. Note: No barbell or weights are 
included. 
11. Always exercise with a partner. When you 
are performing bench press exercises, your 
partner should stand behind you to catch the 
barbell if you cannot complete a repetition.
12. Always place the same amount of weight 
on both ends of the barbell. While adding or 
removing weights, always keep some weight 
on both ends of the barbell to prevent the 
barbell from tipping. 
13. Before using the weight bench, make sure 
that the two knobs are fully engaged in 
adjustment holes.
14. Over exercising may result in serious injury 
or death. If you feel faint or if you experience 
pain while exercising, stop immediately and 
cool down.
    WARNING:
 To reduce the risk of serious injury, read all important precautions and 
instructions in this manual and all warnings on your weight bench before using your weight bench.
