The Workout Bench
Your BowFlex Elite™ Plus home gym has a number of
seat and bench positions: flat bench forward, flat bench
back, 45° incline and free-sliding seat extension.
To adjust the seat, pull out the Seat Rail Knob, then slide
the seat to one of the three locking holes on the Seat
Rail.
Release the Seat Rail Knob to secure when finished.
Removing the Bench:
The Bench easily attaches and releases from the Seat.
To attach the Bench, insert the half hinge on the end of
the Bench into the half hinge on the seat. To remove the
Bench, lift up on the long portion and pull away from
seat.
Flat Bench:
The Flat bench position is used for most
exercises. You may lock the bench into
a Back (closest to Power Rod® unit)
or Forward (furthest from Power Rod®
unit) position to accommodate height/
reach needs.
45° Incline Bench:
Start with a flat bench, following the
above instructions to release and move
the seat and bench. Lift the bench while
sliding the seat toward the Power Rod®
unit until the bench back is resting
against the Lat Tower.
Leg Extension:
Refer to page A-12 of the Assembly
Manual for instructions on installing the
Leg Extension Seat.
Free-Sliding Seat:
Remove the Bench, pull out the Seat Rail Knob, give
it half a turn and release to place the Seat in a “free
sliding” position for Aerobic Rowing.

Maintenance and Care of
Your BowFlex Elite™ Plus
Home Gym
Inspect your machine for any worn
or loose components prior to use.
Tighten or replace any worn or loose
components prior to use. Pay close
attention to cables, or belts and their
connections.
Clean the bench with a non-abrasive
household cleanser after each use. This
will keep it looking new. Do not use
automotive cleaner, which can make the
bench too “slick.”
Review all warning notices. The
safety and integrity designed into a
machine can only be maintained when the equipment
is regularly examined for damage and repaired. It is
the sole responsibility of the owner to ensure that
regular maintenance is performed. Worn or damaged
components shall be replaced immediately or the
equipment removed from service until the repair is made.
Only manufacturer supplied components shall be used to
maintain/repair the equipment.
