Cybex Owner’s Manual
4
• Use the selectorized and plate loaded machines as shown on placards. DO NOT modify the
machine.
• Never pin the weights in an elevated position. DO NOT use the machine if found in this condition.
Seek assistance from oor staff. Weights pinned up have the potential to fall if the user pulls the
pin. Floor staff should lower the weights to prevent potential problems.
• Be certain that the weight pin is completely inserted (for selectorized strength equipment that
employ weight stacks). If the pin is not completely inserted the user may accidentally drop the
weights if the pin falls out.
• Never use dumbbells or other means to incrementally increase the weight resistance. Use only
those means provided by the manufacturer for the equipment. Altering the machine design by
adding additional weight as with dumbbells or other means can injure the user, may damage the
equipment, and will void the warranty.
• Set up, anchor, and operate selectorized strength equipment on a solid level surface. If the oor is
not level the equipment is not stable.
• DO NOT wear loose or dangling clothing or jewelry while using selectorized strength equipment.
Stay clear of all moving components. Loose clothing or dangling jewelry can become entangled in
moving parts and potentially cause severe injury or damage.
• Consult a physician prior to commencing an exercise program. If at any time during exercise you
feel faint, dizzy or experience pain, stop and consult your physician. Users must be responsible
and cautious with the condition of their own health. Consulting a physician before beginning a
program can alert the user to the personal risk if health is an issue.
• Use a spotter for Free Weight equipment. A spotter adds an additional level of safety.
• DO NOT exceed the maximum specied user weight. Too much weight on a machine may prevent
it from proper function or damage the machine.
• DO NOT use if equipment appears damaged or inoperable upon inspection. If the equipment
appears damaged or inoperable- contact the oor staff.
• DO NOT attempt to x a broken or jammed equipment. Notify oor staff. It is the owner’s
responsibility to repair broken or jammed equipment.
• DO NOT use if guards are missing or damaged. A missing or broken guard should be replaced by
a qualied technician. Guards prevent things from interfering with function.
• DO NOT remove any labeling from equipment. Replace any damaged labels. Labels give users
specic information and alerts. Replacing damaged labels ensures users can read the labels for
information provided.
Facility Safety Precautions
• Read the Owner’s Manual carefully before assembling, servicing or using the equipment.
• It is the sole responsibility of the user/owner or facility operator to ensure that regular maintenance
is performed.
