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 kneeling cable crunch on our High Pulley Station, located on the Apollo Multigym, is a popular core isolation exercise using a pulley attachment and cable stack while kneeling on the floor. It primarily targets the outer ab muscles, but also strengthens the deep core muscles if you pull heavier weight. The Apollo multigym caters to all fitness levels with a weight stack of 10-100lbs.
