Operating Instructions
Before each workout, inspect the equipment for any loose parts, damaged cables, or worn padding. Always start with a warm-up and consult a healthcare professional before beginning any new exercise program.
Weight Adjustment:
The gym features a 40 kg weight stack. Adjust the resistance by inserting the selector pin into the desired weight plate. Ensure the pin is fully inserted before starting an exercise.
Exercise Stations:
- Chest Press / Butterfly Module:
This module allows for both chest press and butterfly exercises. The horizontal handles can be adjusted and mounted either above or below the padding to suit your preference and exercise type. Sit on the seat with your back firmly against the backrest. For chest press, push the handles forward. For butterfly, bring the handles together in front of your chest.

- Lat Pulldown / Low Row:
Utilize the upper pulley for lat pulldowns and the lower pulley for low rows or bicep curls. Attach the appropriate bar (latissimus bar or cable bar) to the cable. For lat pulldowns, sit facing the machine, grasp the latissimus bar, and pull it down towards your upper chest. For low rows, sit on the floor or bench, place your feet against the footplate, grasp the cable bar, and pull it towards your abdomen.

Maintenance
Regular maintenance ensures the safety and extends the lifespan of your home gym.

- Lubrication: Periodically apply a silicone-based lubricant to the guide rods of the weight stack and any moving pivot points to ensure smooth operation and prevent squeaking.
- Inspection: Regularly check all bolts, nuts, and connections for tightness. Inspect cables and pulleys for any signs of wear, fraying, or damage. Replace any worn or damaged parts immediately. Spare cables and pulleys are included with your purchase.
- Storage: Store the equipment in a dry, temperate environment away from direct sunlight and moisture.
Troubleshooting
Here are solutions to common issues you might encounter:
