FAQs

What is the maximum weight capacity of this system?

The system can hold up to 50kg of weight plates on the loading pin. Always ensure your anchor point and strap can also safely support this weight.

What size weight plates are compatible?

This system is compatible with weight plates that have either 2.5cm or 5cm diameter holes.

What exercises can I perform with this system?

You can perform a wide variety of upper body exercises including bicep curls, tricep pushdowns, lat pulldowns, seated rows, and shoulder raises.

Do I need to buy anything else to use this system?

The set includes a steel pulley, two 5kg weight plates, two pull ropes, a handle strap, a handle bar, and a loading pin. You may need to purchase additional weight plates if you require more than the included 10kg, and a suitable anchor point if you do not have one.

How do I clean the equipment?

Wipe down the pulley, cables, and accessories with a damp cloth after use. Ensure the equipment is dry before storing.

Is this system suitable for beginners?

Yes, it is suitable for beginners and experienced users alike. The weight can be adjusted by adding or removing weight plates, allowing for progressive training.

Where should I anchor the strap?

The strap should be anchored to a strong, stable overhead point that can safely bear the load. Examples include a secure ceiling mount, a sturdy pull-up bar, or a reinforced power rack. Always test the anchor point's stability before use.

Troubleshooting

Pulley is not moving smoothly.

Check for any obstructions or debris in the pulley wheel. Ensure the cable is not twisted or snagged. Lubricate the pulley if necessary, following manufacturer guidelines for the specific material.

Weight plates are difficult to load.

Ensure the weight plates have the correct hole diameter (2.5cm or 5cm) for the loading pin. Check if the pin is straight and free of damage.

Strap connection feels insecure.

Re-evaluate the anchor point for stability and load capacity. Ensure the strap is wrapped and secured correctly according to its design. Consider using a different, more robust anchor point if possible.

Cable appears frayed or damaged.

Discontinue use immediately. Inspect the entire cable length for wear. Replace the cable if any signs of damage are present to ensure safety.
