Preparing the cables:

Refer fo the Assembly Instructions NM181.

Assembling the apparatus (minimum of six people required) (see Fig. 1):

Note: Prepare a clean area for assembling the apparatus.

1. – Lay both lower uprights (3) parallel on the floor.
2. – Fit the upper uprights (4) onto the lower uprights (3).
3. – Fit the frame head (5), on each side, onto the lower upright (3) + upper upright (4) assemblies.
4. – Install the rings (6) on the frame head (5): insert each swivel pin screw (8) through the frame head (5), firmly tighten the nuts ).
5. – In order to obtain the 2.80 m prescribed height for the rings (6) with regard to the floor, install the attachment elements (9) + (10) at the bottom of uprights (3) into the 5th hole of the sliding tubes (1). Moderately lock the attachment elements (9) + (10).
6. – Install the pivots (12) into their housings on the floor (if required), in line with the plotting.

Assembling, adjusting and tightening the cables:
Important: When the vertical position of the frame is adjusted, and before tightening the cables (13), do not forget fo lock all the attachment elements on floor.
Refer to the Assembly Instructions NM181.

Adjusting the height (see Fig. 1):

1. – Loosen the cables (13) using the quick tighteners (see NM181).
2. – Slightly lift the upright (3) to remove the aftachments (9) + (10) at the bottom of the uprights (3).
3. – Raise or lower the uprights (3) until the bar is at the desired height.
4. – Install the attachment elements (9) + (10) at the bottom of the uprights (3) into the hole of the sliding tubes (1) corresponding to the desired height Moderately lock the aftachment elements (9) + (10). Important: Check that both sliding tubes (1) are adjusted to the same height – this is mandatory.
5. – Retighten the cables (13). 13

Adjustment values (see Fig. 2):
Ring height:
1st hole = 2.60 m
2nd hole =2.65m
3rd hole =2.70 m
4thhole=2.75m
5th hole (F.L.G.): = 2.80 m
6th hole =2.85m
7thhole=2.90m
8th hole =2.95m

Maintenance:

1. – Aregular cleaning of the apparatus allows better viewing of the problems, if any (distortion, breakage, or corrosion).

2. – Before use, check wear parts and safety elements each time for good condition and operation: – pads (2),
   – all the bracing cable elements (cables, tighteners, quick links locked, etc.).
   – complete rings (6): cables (no shreded), straps (no cut seams), and swivel pins (tightened). We recommend to change them regularly as required by usage frequency (at least every 3 years).

3. – Check the tightening of cables (13) and closure of quick links, … (see NM181), before each use.

4. – Check the correct tightening of all attachment elements (9) + (10) + (11) and the locking of anchors.

5. – Important:
   – Ifaproblem s defected or suspected, do not use the equipment as long as it has not been checked by a technician.
   – Any damaged or distorted piece should be replaced as soon as possible.

Storage:

Always store the equipment away from humidity and heat.

Warning:
This equipment should be installed by a qualified individual.
The apparatus should only be used by one person at a time, under the supervision of a qualified individual.
Using this equipment for purposes other than those originally intended is not allowed.
Attachments that are not provided with the apparatus may only be used if the support complies with the CC34 specifications for GYMNOVA chemical anchors, (ref.
: 2005 or ref. : 2010) or €C22 for GYMNOVA retractable anchors, (ref. : 2000/40 – 2000/80). Make sure that the quick links are closed and anchors are tightened before tightening the cables. Do not use the equipment when the cables are slack.
Compliance:
This equipment complies with the requirements of the European standard EN 913 “Gymnastic equipment – General safety requirements and fest methods”.

Recommendations:

As shown in French Standard NF $52-400 the following is recommended:

• keep these instructions for subsequent reference (inspection, maintenance, efc.).
• periodically carry out predictive maintenance.
• depending on how much it is used, have the equipment serviced yearly or every few years.

Packaging:

1Pack (ref.: 3700/40)
Dimensions: 400 x 300 x 220 mm (15.75 x 11.81 x 8.66 in)
Weight: 17 kg (37.51b) ~ Volume: 0.0264 m (0.93 ft)

Preparing the cables:

1. – Floor positioning (see Fig. 1, Fig. 2, Fig. 3 and Fig. 4):
   – Plot the floor positioning of the anchors and distances between legs.
   – Drill in accordance with the assembly instructions NM13 for chemical anchors or NM25 for retractable anchors (for pivots (7): drill 212,45 mm (1.77 in) deep, if required).
   Important:
   – The cable attachment points must resist 800 daN (see: NF $52-400).
   – Itis mandatory that the uprights are aligned with the reference line.

2. Layout of cabling items

3. -Assembly principle and precautions:
   – Make sure you assemble the quick links (3) in the proper direction (always fighten downward) (see Fig. 5).
   – Adjust the turnbuckles (5) fo medium length to enable the cables to be adjusted easily.
   Note: Do not lock the floor attachments so that the bracing flats (8) can be positioned.

Assembling the cables (minimum of 6 people required):

• Identify the location of each cable using Figures 1, 2, 3 and 4 (on page 2) and overview (on 1 page).
• Once the respective position of the cables is determined, attach one end of each cable at mid-height of the frame (uprights), and the other end at the top of the frame (head of 3770D and uprights of 3700C), observing the assembly direction of the quick  inks (3) (see Fig. 5).
• Hook the cables (2) to the rear anchors (B) using the turnbuckles (5).
• Lift the frame and position it over the reference line or into the pivots (7).
• Hold the frame and hook the cables (1) to the front anchors (A) using the open quick tighteners (4).
• Set the frame assembly vertical (use a level) by adjusting the chain links, then fine-tune the adjustments using the turnbuckles (5) of cables (1) and (2).

Adjusting and tightening the cables:
Important: Remember to lock all the floor attachments (9) before tightening the cables.

1. – To fine-tune the tension of cables (1), open the quick tightener (4) (see Fig. M), screw or unscrew the turnbuckle (5). Lock the locknuts, then close the quick tightener (see Fig. 10).
2. – Position the quick tightener (4) so that it is above the turnbuckle (5).
3. – Important: Lock the quick links (3) and the locknuts on turnbuckles (4) and (5) using the wrench.

Maintenance:

1. – Aregular cleaning of the apparatus allows better viewing of the problems, if any (distortion, breakage, or corrosion).
2. – Before use, thoroughly check wear parts and safety elements each time for good condition and operation: wear of cables, quick links (3), chain links, bracing flats (8), quick tighteners (4), the turnbuckles (5) and pulleys (6).
3. – Check the tightening of cables and closure of quick links, before each use.
4.  – Check that the anchors (9) are locked and that they do not draw out from the floor.
5. – Make sure pulleys are not jammed.
6.  – Important:
   – If a problem is defected or suspected, do not use the equipment as long as it has not been checked by a technician.
   – Any damaged or distorted piece should be replaced as soon as possible.

Storage:
Always store the equipment away from humidity and heat.
