IMPORTANT! High And Low Pulley Station Weight Stack Instructions

The APOLLO selectorized weight stack and pulley system has been designed with user safety in mind. In order to select the weight amount you want to use, please follow these instructions.

With one hand lift the clear plastic weight stack shield all the way up and with the other hand pull the pop pin out from its security track and slide it up or down in the track to select the weight amount you want to use.

Once you have selected the weight amount you want, release the pop pin and make sure it is completely seated in the weight stack hole that you’ve picked. Lower the clear plastic weight stack shield all the way down.

This will unlock the weight stack for use. While the weight stack shield is open both the high pulley and low pulley cannot be moved as they are locked.

The seated cable row, located on our Apollo low pulley station, is a seated pull exercise that works the back muscles. It also works the forearm muscles and the upper arm muscles, as the biceps and triceps are dynamic stabilizers for this exercise. Keep your back strong and straight, so you don't injure yourself.
