About a month ago a group of guys broke the T-bar row machine at my gym. What I heard was they had it loaded up with a lot of weight and dropped the handle. Our owner ordered a new one and it arrived Tuesday. One of the trainers at Catalyst told me it was in the storage room and asked if I wanted to help assemble it. I agreed to help and I went to the storage room to see where it was. All that was there was a box of metal hardware and parts wrapped in plastic. The six longer metal posts were leaning on the wall. I thought it would be partially assembled but it wasn’t.
The whole box needs assembled!
Friday I started on the project by unpacking the heavy box. It got damaged in transport and had nuts and washers falling out of the holes. Once I opened the box, I could see we would need instructions and I couldn’t see any. A card was found which had a QR code for accessing the web site with the assembly directions. We hand-carried everything down to the weight room where the old one had been. Carefully, I laid out all the pieces on the floor where it was going. The Assembly instructions that Ayden printed for us helped, but it didn’t have step-by-step instructions. We just had to guess the order and what bolts went where,
I thought I took final pictures of it assembled but I can’t find them. I’ll add them next time I’m back at Catalyst!
