Multi-Gym Crossover with Smith Assembly

Setting up your Multi-Gym Crossover with Smith Bar is simple and straightforward with our step-by-step assembly video and comprehensive instruction manual. To speed up the process, have a ratchet screwdriver or drill ready, although a spanner will work equally well. All necessary Allen keys are included with your rack.

When assembling the main frame, remember not to fully tighten all bolts immediately. Keeping some flexibility at the start will make it easier to align all components correctly. Once the frame is fully assembled and aligned, go back and tighten everything securely.

During assembly, pay close attention to the cables — each one should be seated correctly within the groove of the idler pulley wheels along its entire route. This ensures smooth and consistent movement during workouts and prevents unnecessary wear.

Finally, always follow the safety information outlined in the instruction manual. The Smith bar provides an added layer of safety when lifting heavy, but proper form and exercise technique are essential. Only use this machine if you are familiar with strength equipment and always train responsibly.

Multi-Gym Crossover with Smith Maintenance

To ensure long-lasting performance and safety, it’s important to carry out regular maintenance on your Multi-Gym Crossover with Smith Bar. Before every workout:

  • perform a quick visual inspection of the machine. Check for any signs of wear, loose components, or cable damage, and resolve any issues immediately. If in doubt, contact RPM Power Support for guidance.
  • Routinely tighten all bolts, screws, and nuts, paying special attention to safety catches, J-hooks, spotter arms, and frame joints. Even slightly loose fittings can affect stability and overall safety during heavy lifts.
  • Inspect the cables for fraying, kinks, or wear and replace them if necessary (see below).
  • Keep the Smith bar’s guide rods and pulley systems clean and lightly lubricated with a silicone-based lubricant to maintain smooth, friction-free movement.
  • Wipe down the frame, attachments, and pads regularly with a soft damp cloth to remove sweat and dust. Avoid abrasive cleaning products, which can damage the coating or upholstery.
  • Finally, inspect all attachments — including dip bars, J-hooks, and spotter arms — to ensure they’re seated properly and fully locked in place before each workout.

Regular care not only preserves the quality and appearance of your Crossover with Smith Bar but also ensures it continues to perform safely and smoothly for years to come.
