5Before You Start
Before You Assemble
Select where you are going to locate your Bowflex
Ultimate®2 home gym carefully. The best place for
your home gym is on a hard, level surface. For best
results, assemble your home gym in the location where
you intend to use it. Allow a workout area of at least
8’4”L x 6’6”W (2.6m L x 2m W) of free space for safe
operation of the Bowflex Ultimate®2 home gym.
A minimum of 7’4” of ceiling height will be required to
assemble your Bowflex Ultimate®2 home gym.
Basic Assembly Principles
Here are a few basic tips that will make your assembly
of the Bowflex Ultimate®2 home gym 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 Ultimate®2 home gym, turn bolts
or nuts toward the right to tighten and left to
loosen.
NOTE: LEAVE ALL CABLES WRAPPED AND BAGGED UNTIL YOUR
BOWFLEX ULTIMATE®2 IS FULLY ASSEMBLED.
