Operating Instructions
The BodyCraft X4 offers four distinct training stations:
- Station One: Functional Training / Cable Arms & High Pulley
This station features fully adjustable training/cable arms, capable of replicating over 100 dumbbell exercises. The high pulley is suitable for lat pulldowns, tricep pushdowns, and various cable exercises. Adjust the arm height and angle using the designated pins.
- Station Two: Adjustable Dual Cable Column
Provides resistance at any angle and height. Static handles are integrated into the frame for balance during leg exercises. Adjust the pulley height by pulling the pin and sliding the carriage to the desired position.
- Station Three: Press Arm & Leg Extension/Curl
Designed for machine-style bench presses, incline presses, shoulder presses, and seated rows. Includes a self-aligning leg extension/leg curl option and a mid pulley for abdominal crunches and triceps extensions. Adjust the press arm starting position and leg attachment as needed.
- Station Four: Leg Press & Calf Raise
Supports full leg development with a dedicated leg press and calf raise station. Creative cabling doubles the resistance ratio, providing up to 400 pounds of resistance. Ensure proper foot placement and controlled movement during exercises.
Weight Selection: Insert the selector pin fully into the desired weight plate. Ensure the pin is securely seated before beginning any exercise.
Safety: Always perform exercises with controlled movements. Do not drop weights. Consult a fitness professional for proper form and exercise routines.
Maintenance
Regular maintenance ensures the longevity and safe operation of your BodyCraft X4 Multigym.
- Cleaning: Wipe down upholstery and frame with a damp cloth after each use to prevent sweat buildup and maintain hygiene. Avoid abrasive cleaners.
