Select where you are going to locate your Bowflex Revolution®home gym carefully.The best place for
your Bowflex Revolution®home gym is on a hard, level surface. For best results, assemble the unit in the
location where you intend to use it. Allow a workout area of at least 120” length x 84” width (304.8 cm L x
213.4 cm W) of free space for safe operation of the machine.
Basic Assembly Principles
Here are a few basic tips that will make your assembly of the Bowflex Revolution® quick and easy.
By using these principles, you can simplify each process and save yourself extra time and effort.
1. To make the assembly process go faster, gather the pieces you need for each step and thoroughly
read the assembly instructions for that step prior to starting assembly for the step.
2. When tightening a locknut on a bolt, use a combination wrench to grip the locknut and ensure that
it is fastened securely.
3. When attaching two pieces, gently lift and look through the bolt holes to help guide the bolt
through the holes.
4. As a general rule, and for all bolts and nuts on your Bowflex Revolution®, turn bolts or nuts toward the
right to tighten and left to loosen. Or you can remember the mnemonic: “Righty tighty, lefty loosey.”
