Introduction
This User's Guide has been written in the manufacturer's original language and translated into
the language of the country in which the equipment is used. It forms an integral part of the
equipment, with which it should always be kept. The User's Guide should accompany the
equipment in the event of relocation or sale.
The User's Guide contains valuable information and useful suggestions about training methods, as well as medical and sports advice; it is therefore a useful guide both for professional
users and for beginners with no previous sports knowledge.
The following symbols will help you to read this User's Guide:
WARNING
Highlights important information, which should not be overlooked.
DANGER
Highlights rules, which should be carefully observed, in order to avoid situations
that are hazardous to persons and the equipment.

2.3 How to use correctly
-
Use of the equipment is subject to a medical evaluation in relation to the intended type of
exercise, and compliance with the conditions of use laid down by the manufacturer.
Use the equipment only for the type of exercise for which it is intended, and according to
the methods and under the conditions stated in this manual.
Persons suffering from certain physical conditions may only use the equipment under the
strict supervision of a doctor with specific competency in this area.
Build up your training according to your own ergonomic characteristics and state of health,
starting with undemanding loads.
Training shoes and clothing suitable for physical activity should be worn; garments that
prevent perspiration should not be worn.
Should you feel unwell during training (dizziness, chest pain, etc.), stop exercising
immediately and consult a doctor.
At the beginning of each exercise, make sure you are in the correct position, and that
none of the parts of the equipment are in your way.
Keep hands away from the weight stack during use.
Do not spray water near the equipment.
Do not leave the equipment outside, or expose it to the elements (rain, sun, etc.).
Equipment in the Selection range should only be used for the purpose for which it was
designed, or for exercises with counterweights. Any other use should be considered
inappropriate and therefore dangerous.
Do NOT disconnect the Range of Motion (ROM) adjustment lever, unless the weight stack
is in the "rest" position.
