Approximately 12 years ago I purchased a BMI #9000 weight training
machine.  We recently moved and I am having difficulty re-assembling
it.  Can you provide me a photo of the assembled equipment or assembly
instructions?

I can help you if your machine looks like this one:

If this resembles your machine, I can provide you with a photograph 
(JPEG, 541 X 762 pixels) of a fully assembled machine. I can also
provide a scan of BMI's flyer which shows how to re-configure the
machine for exercises targeting the legs, back, chest, shoulders, and
arms. This scan is rather poor, and the text is not legible, but the
drawings that show the positioning of the machine and the body are
usable. The photograph of the assembled machine is of good quality,
with adequate detail of the all-important pulley mechanisms.

The sketch offered by pinkfreud-ga does resemble my machine.  I
believe that the information that he offers may be the answer that I
need.

Joehd,

Here is a photograph of the fully assembled machine:

And here is a scan of the flyer which shows the configurations for
exercises which target different areas of the body:

I hope this helps you with reassembly. This device is so heavy-duty
that you will probably get many years' use out of your BMI machine,
once you have installed it in your new home.

Please let me know if there is a problem with either of the links
above, so that I can re-post these images elsewhere for you.

Best wishes,
pinkfreud

Another thought occurred to me regarding the assembly of your BMI
machine: you could post a note on the bulletin boards of local health
clubs and gymnasiums, asking to contact other people who own this kind
of machine. In this way you might be able to find one in your vicinity
and actually see it in person.

Thanks for the 4-star rating. Good luck with your home gym!

The photograph of assembled equipment looks just like mine.  It should
be a great help when I get back home to try and assemble it.  I
already had the flyer showing exercise configurations but it does not
show enogh of the machine to assemble all of it.  Only thing else I
would like but may not need would be assembly instructions.   Thanks
for aprompt response.

Duplicate question. If you've not posted it intentionally then please
remove it to avoid double charges.

Thanks

I have removed one of the duplicate questions.
