⚠ WARNING
• All cables with threaded adjustable ends must have at least 1/2"
of the treads threaded in to its counter part. It is very important
that the jam nut be wrenched tightened to the counter part to
ensure that the threaded adjustable end of the cable does not
back out of its counterpart.
Correct cable tension
The correct cable tension is where the weight stack returns smoothly,
keeping a loose cable tension when weight stack is in rest position.
There should be hardly a non tension moment when starting a
workout using the weight stack as load.
‼ NOTE
• When weight selector pin can not smoothly fix the required
weight load because selector shaft is slightly lifted when selector
pin is out, the cable tension should be loosened.
‼ NOTE
• Due to normal wear of the cable it can stretch out slightly over
time. Also the weight plate buffers can be compressed a little.
Therefore readjusting the cable might be required after a period
of use. This strongly depend on the usage, and total cable
length.
Free area (Fig. D-0)
Adequate space is a prerequisite for use.
The free area should be no less than 100 cm greater than the
*training area in the directions from which the equipment is accessed.
The free area must also include the area for emergency dismount.
Where equipment is positioned adjacent to each other, the value of
the free area may be shared.
*Training area is the maximum length/width/ height of the trainer,
including moving parts, been measured to its maximum length/
width/ height during use.
IMPORTANT
Because your trainer will/ can set in the first using hours, we
recommend you do a quick check on the hardware you have fitted
during your assembly.
We suggest tightening all bolts and nuts once again after the first
few workout sessions (approximate 10 hours).
Just to assure the bolts and nuts are still tightened well for your
trainer's best performance.
‼ NOTE
• We recommend checking the hardware regularly, at least once
every 3 months.

Packaging disposal
Government guidelines ask that we reduce the amount of waste
material disposed of in land fill sites. We therefore ask that you
dispose of all packaging waste responsibly at public recycling centres.
End of life disposal
We at Tunturi hope you enjoy many years of enjoyable use from
your fitness trainer. However, a Time will come when your fitness
trainer will come to the end of its useful life. Under 'European WEEE
Legislation you are responsible for the appropriate disposal of your
fitness trainer to a recognised public collection facility.
Operation notes
Weight Plate Selection
- Use the Weight Selector Pin to select the number of weight plates
to exercise.
- Do not insert weight selector pin while the weight stack or top
plate is in elevated position.
- Be certain the weight Selector Pin is completely inserted.
- Please refer to Weight Resistance Chart page.
- Never use dumbbells or other means to increase the weight
resistance. Use only weight plates provided by manufacturer.
- For safety purpose while the equipment is not in use. Insert the
Lock Pin into the hole on Guide Rod, to prevent the movement of
Weight Plates.
Exercise guidelines
Building Muscle and Gaining Weight
Unlike aerobic exercise, which emphasizes endurance training,
anaerobic exercise focuses on strength training. A gradual weight
gain can occur while building the size and strength of muscles. While
developing muscle mass, your body adapts to the stress placed upon
it. You can modify your diet to include foods such as meat, fish and
vegetables.
These foods help muscles recover and replenish important nutrients
after a strenuous workout.
Muscle Strength and Endurance
To achieve the greatest benefit from exercise, it is important to
develop an exercise program that allows you to work all of the major
muscle groups equally.
To increase muscles strength; follow this principle:
Increasing resistance and maintaining the number of repetitions of an
exercise results in increased muscle strength.
To tone your body, follow the principle: Decreasing resistance
plus increasing the number of repetitions of an exercise results in
increased body tone.
Once you feel comfortable with an exercise, you can change the
resistance, the number of repetitions, or the speed at which you do
the exercise. It is not necessary to change all three variables. For
example, let's say that you are training at 10 kg. and performing the
exercise 10 times in 3 minutes. When this becomes too easy, you may
decide to move up lifting 12 kg. for the same number of repetitions
in the same amount of time. Lifting more weights fewer times most
often develops muscle strength. To gain both muscle strength and
endurance, it is recommended that you perform each exercise 15 to
20 reps per set.
Training Intensity
How hard you begin to train depends on your overall level of fitness.
The soreness you experienced can be lessened by decreasing the
load you place on your muscles and by performing fewer sets.
To avoid injury, you should gradually work into an exercise program
and set the load to your individual fitness level. The load should
increase as your fitness level increases.
