DO NOT use impact tools to secure the legs
to the floor. The impact associated with these
tools could crack the cast iron. Tighten all
floor mounting hardware by hand.
Failure to properly cross-brace the Model
SB1354 will result in a significantly reduced
maximum weight capacity and could cause
the bench to collapse under heavy vertical or
lateral loading. Collapse can result in crushing
injuries and/or property damage.
