What is the Multi-Gym Tyr?
Standing tall as the pinnacle of RPM Power’s Norse Range, the Multi-Gym Tyr embodies the strength, precision and endurance of its mythological namesake. Engineered with commercial-grade steel, dual 130kg weight stacks and an integrated Smith machine, Tyr is designed to empower even the toughest workouts — whether in a professional gym or a dedicated home setup.
Whether you’re considering the Multi-Gym Tyr or have already made it part of your training space, this guide has everything you need to know about assembly, maintenance, and expert usage tips. With our step-by-step assembly video and detailed instruction manual, setting up your Tyr is simple, safe and efficient — so you can start training with confidence from day one.
We’ll also share essential maintenance practices to help keep your machine in peak condition for years to come — because a world-class multi-gym deserves world-class care.
Multi-Gym Tyr Assembly
Assembling your Multi-Gym Tyr is made simple with our step-by-step video guide and detailed PDF instruction manual, both designed to walk you through each stage clearly and confidently. Before getting started, take note of the following tips:
✓ Have a ratchet screwdriver or drill ready, although a spanner will work equally well.
✓ All necessary Allen keys are included with your rack.
✓ 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.
✓ Each cable 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 prioritise safety. The safety guidelines provided in the instruction PDF below should be reviewed carefully before training. Only use this machine if you are already familiar with exercise equipment and always maintain proper form and technique to ensure safe and effective workouts.
Additional Assembly Tips: Attachments
To help you get the most out of this product, we’ve created a video guide demonstrating how to correctly insert attachments on your Multi-Gym Tyr. It’s essential that every attachment is fully seated in its insert before use and where a locking key is required, it should always be engaged to keep the attachment firmly in place. When fitting attachment pairs — such as J-hooks, spotter arms, or dip bars — make sure they are level on both sides of the rack frame. This ensures that your barbell remains secure during lifts and that your form and safety are never compromised.
Multi-Gym Tyr Maintenance
To keep your Multi-Gym Tyr performing at its best, regular maintenance is essential. Before each use, take a moment to visually inspect the entire machine for any signs of wear, damage or loose components. If you notice anything unusual, address it immediately or contact RPM Power Support for assistance.
Make it a habit to check and tighten all bolts, screws and nuts regularly — especially in critical areas such as safety catches, bar holders and frame connections. Even slightly loose fasteners can compromise both performance and safety, so ensure everything is secure before every workout.
The cables in particular deserve special attention: inspect them frequently for fraying, kinks or other signs of wear. Replace damaged cables immediately to avoid potential hazards. In general, we recommend replacing cables every 1-3 years depending on usage frequency and load weight lifted. You can purchase replacement cables from RPM Power if you need to. The below video is a helpful guide to general multi-gym cable maintenance.
For the weight stack, ensure that all plates are securely attached and kept clean to prevent buildup that may affect movement. Wipe down your multi-gym regularly with a damp cloth to remove dust, sweat and debris — but avoid harsh or abrasive cleaners that could damage the finish. If you notice any squeaking or stiffness, apply a silicone-based lubricant like WDF40 spray to the pulleys, guide rods and weight stack pins to restore smooth movement.
By following these simple yet crucial steps, you’ll not only extend the life of your Multi-Gym Tyr but also ensure every workout is safe, smooth and effective.
