outside, near a pool, hot tub, or sauna should apply an automotive wax to delay rusting. The corrosive effects of sweat, cleaners, body lotions, sunlight, etc. are also

the responsibility of the owner.

It is our policy to repair or replace components rather than entire machines or assemblies. It is also our policy to repair rather than replace frame components. Repairs of

structural parts will be made using appropriate technology and may be visible. Repaired items will be refinished as needed, but the new finish may not match the old.

Replacement and Repair Expenses: Vectra Fitness will provide only replacement parts or repair to parts under this Limited Warranty, and will pay for standard

for service, removal, repair, and re-installation of the Vectra product or any component part;  shipping, delivery, handling, and administrative charges for returning parts

to Vectra; all necessary or incidental costs related to installation of the repaired or replacement part.

without prior factory authorization or freight collect will not be accepted. Vectra assigned RMA number MUST be prominently shown on OUTSIDE of carton. Copies of

original bill of sale MUST accompany any merchandise returned for warranty service. Also, each returned item must be accompanied by the following information:

to Vectra Fitness in their original carton or equivalent packaging. Vectra Fitness will not be responsible for any loss or damage incurred in shipping.

No other express or implied warranties have been made or will be made on behalf of Vectra Fitness with respect to any Vectra product or the operation, repair or

SHALL WE BE LIABLE FOR INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES FOR BREACH OF THIS LIMITED WARRANTY OR ANY OTHER WARRANTY EXPRESS OR IMPLIED.

or exclusions may not apply to you.

450 Cable Diagram

Note: The pulleys on this diagram are numbered to make the installation of new cables

as easy as possible. Simply start threading the cables through the pulleys beginning

with the lowest number and working up. For example, if you are installing an entire set

of cables start at pulley #1. If you are installing only a new low pulley cable (PN 67140)

for example, you would begin at pulley #6. Where applicable, text and other drawings

in this manual that mention or show pulleys contain corresponding numbers.

ectra Fitness gyms are designed to provide years of trouble-free service with

minimal routine maintenance. You can be confident of continued top quality performance

by carrying out the following periodic inspection.

PERFORM THE FOLLOWING SAFETY CHECK DAILY:

1. 

Inspect cables, cable ends and nylon jacket very carefully. Refer to W

arning

Label for specific information on inspecting cables. This same information is

repeated in this manual and on your exercise chart. Replace any damaged

or worn cables. Annual cable replacement (semiannual in multi-user settings)

is strongly recommended as an additional precaution. The rate at which cables

wear depends on many factors including: repetitions, weight setting, misuse,

abuse, etc. Because of this, periodic cable replacement is not a sufficient

safeguard against unexpected breakage. Nothing short of a thorough, careful

daily inspection constitutes an adequate safety program.

PERFORM THE FOLLOWING CHECKS WEEKLY:

1. 

Inspect frame and pulley bolts for tightness. Tighten if necessary

.*

2. 

Inspect cable attachments (short and long single handles, double handles, lat

or curl bars, ankle strap, foot strap, triceps strap, sport handles such as racquet

sports, golf, or baseball, ab strap, squat attachments, etc.) carefully. Look for

damaged mounting eyes, springs, latches, etc. Inspect the webbing for fraying

and check that the stitching is intact and strong. Inspect all joints, fixed and

pivoting. Make sure any bolts are tight and that all retaining rings are intact

and in good condition. Inspect any bearings. Replace any damaged or worn

items.

3. 

Inspect weight selector pin for proper fit and retention in selector shaft. Replace

improperly functioning pin (or other stack components) with Vectra replacement

parts only.

4. 

Inspect press arm adjustment lever for proper function. Ensure that latch pin

is engaging each position fully. Replace  improperly functioning parts with

Vectra replacement parts only

.

5. 

Inspect press arm mounting screws for tightness. Tighten if necessary

.* Inspect

all springs, including press arm counter balance springs to make sure they are

in good condition and working properly. Replace any missing, damaged or worn

springs with Vectra replacement parts only

.

6. 

Inspect bench bolts. Tighten if necessary

.* Inspect bench wheels, wheel

suspension pivots, retaining rings, spring, and braking features for proper

function. Replace any damaged or malfunctioning parts.

7. 

Inspect leg developer mounting screws, pivots, bearings, and spring for tightness

and/or proper function. Replace any damaged or malfunctioning parts.

8. 

Inspect cushion bolts for tightness. Tighten if necessary

.* Inspect cushion

support structure, squat attachments, pivots, guide wheels and associated

latches. Remedy any problems found using Vectra replacement parts only

.

9. 

Inspect all molded parts such as pulleys, nylon bushings and cable stops. Make

sure all are intact, undamaged and secure. Replace any parts that are missing,

worn or damaged.

10.  Inspect cable retaining plugs and spring plungers. Replace if needed using

Vectra replacement parts only

.

11.  Inspect pulley pivots, retainers, axles, bushings, attachment points, and rotation

limiters. Inspect butterfly adjustment mechanism for proper function. Remedy

any problems found using Vectra replacement parts only

.

12.  Inspect non-slip tread. Inspect rubber feet on frame and bench. Remedy any

problems found using Vectra replacement parts only

.

13.  Adjust cable system tension if necessary (see assembly instructions for details).

W

e at Vectra Fitness appreciate your selection of our product for your fitness

program, and invite your questions and comments. We're sure that you’ll be pleased

with your new Vectra Fitness gym.

This owner’ s manual provides you with safety rules, assembly instructions and

routine inspection and maintenance information to enable you to get the most from

your gym. 

Please read through this manual carefully before you assemble and use your

Vectra Fitness gym.

Warning:

Serious injury can occur if you are struck by falling weights or moving parts. The risk

that you assume by using this type of equipment can be reduced by obeying a

few simple rules:

1. IMPORT

ANT:  Cables are a wear item. It is your responsibility to prevent

unexpected breakage. To do this, inspect every cable daily

. Pay particular

attention to areas near fittings at each end of each cable. Access panels are

provided, where  necessary, for this purpose. Replace worn, frayed, or damaged

cables immediately. The actual wire strands, the fittings, and the nylon jacket

itself must all be scrutinized. Using or allowing a machine to be used with a

suspect cable can result in serious injury.

2. Inspect the nylon jacket of each cable carefully

, again paying particular attention

to the cable ends. This nylon jacket is essential for cable life and safety. Any

cable should be replaced if the nylon jacket is missing, is damaged in any way,

has pulled or shrunk away from the fittings at the end of the cable, or is

discolored. DISCOLORATION, DARKENING OR BULGING OF THE JACKET IS AN

EARLY INDICA

TION OF INTERNAL PROBLEMS SUCH AS WEAR OR FRAYING.

3. Read and follow all instructions in your owner’

s manual, on your exercise chart,

and on product warning label. Additional copies are available from Vectra

Fitness, Inc. or your dealer. Do not use this machine until you have taken the

time to become completely familiar with its safe operation.

4. Consult your physician before beginning your exercise program.

5. Do not allow young children to use or play with or around this machine. Allow

older children to use the machine only with adult supervision.

6. Keep body

, hair, and clothing clear of weights and moving parts at all times.

Keep fingers clear of  moving parts while making adjustments.

7. Inspect the gym for loose or worn parts, damaged, frayed, or worn cables,

broken weight plates, etc. Do not use or allow the machine to be used until any

defective parts are repaired or replaced. Refer to the “Routine Inspection and

Maintenance” section of your manual for specific inspection rules. Use only

Vectra authorized replacement parts.

8. Ensure that the weight selector pin is in good working condition and fully

engaged in the selector shaft prior to lifting. Use only the Vectra supplied pin

or a Vectra authorized replacement.

9. Ensure that any locking mechanisms are properly engaged prior to lifting. Locking

mechanisms secure the following in position during use: seat pads, accessory

items such as squat attachments and lat hold downs, cable attachments, press

arms, leg developers, etc. An improperly engaged locking mechanism could

result in an injury.

10. Obtain assistance to free jammed weight plates, pulleys, etc. Do not attempt

to free jammed weight plates by yourself. Falling weight plates can cause

serious injury.  Do not pin the weight stack or top plate in an elevated position

and do not use machine if found in this condition.

11. Do not drop the weight plates. Lift only as much as you can control safely

. Never

use dumbbells or other means to incrementally increase the weight resistance.

Use only those means provided by Vectra. Don’

t be careless, stay alert.

12. Serious injury could result if equipment moves while in use. T

o prevent this,

ensure that the floor is even, strong, and not too slippery. If equipment slides

too easily on floor, place equipment on rubber matting. Errors in lifting form

could also result in bench moving in use. To prevent this, lift weight vertically

only and do not push horizontally with your feet while lifting.

Replace any warning or caution labels on product if damaged, illegible, or removed.
