HOW TO ADJUST THE WEIGHT BENCH
The instructions below describe how each part of the weight bench can be adjusted. Refer to the exercise infor-
mation accompanying your weight set (not included) to see the correct form for each exercise.
ADJUSTING THE BACKREST
The Backrest (8) has three different positions: a level
position, a decline position, and an incline position.

Adjustment Bar (9) to a different set of adjustment
brackets on the Right and Left Uprights (2, 26). Make
sure that the Adjustment Bar is securely seated in
the adjustment brackets.

barbell (not included) is on the Weight Rests (1),
secure your barbell with the Barbell Lock Pins (28,
38). This will reduce the possibility of the barbell tip-
ping while you change weights. Place the same
amount of weight on both ends of the barbell.
