What is the FID3 bench?
The FID3 is a flat, incline, and decline bench for full-body workouts, including presses, rows, curls, and step-ups. It has a heavy-duty steel frame with a matte black textured powder coat, extra-thick upholstered pads, rear wheels, and a sturdy handle for moving it into position or storing it.

What angles does the bench offer?
The product page lists seven back-pad positions from a 12-degree decline to an 80-degree incline, and three seat adjustments from 0 to 14 degrees. The manual’s angle label lists 0, 15, 30, 45, 60, and 80 degrees, so the two sources don’t match on the decline range. Please refer to the bench’s labels for the positions on your unit.

Does the bench need assembly?
Assembly takes two steps. In step 1, attach the front and rear frame tubes to the main frame using M12 × 25 mm button head screws, M12 spring washers, and M12 flat washers. In step 2, attach the seat pad to the seat frame with one M8 × 65 mm button head screw and two M8 × 25 mm button head screws, and attach the back pad to the back frame with four M8 × 25 mm button head screws. Each screw uses an M8 spring washer and an M8 flat washer. Tighten all the hardware in each step. The hardware pack includes #8 and #5 Allen wrenches.

What is the weight capacity?
The maximum user weight is 300 lbs (136 kg). The total weight capacity is 500 lbs (226.8 kg).

What are the dimensions and weight?
The bench is 54 inches long, 23.4 inches wide, and 15.5 inches high. The maximum height is 50 inches to the top of the pad in the upright position. The bench weighs 65 lbs (29.5 kg).

How much space do I need?
Keep the bench on a clear, level surface, away from walls and furniture. Keep bystanders at least 5 feet away while it’s in use. We recommend placing a rubber mat underneath to protect wood flooring or carpet.

Who can use the bench, and when should I stop?
Only one person at a time should use the bench. Keep children and pets away from it at all times. The manual recommends a spotter during exercise. Consult your doctor before starting any exercise program, especially if you’re over 35 or have a pre-existing health condition. Stop immediately if you feel dizziness, nausea, chest pain, or any other abnormal symptoms. People with disabilities should use the bench only with a qualified person or physician in attendance. Warm up with stretching exercises before you train.

What safety precautions should I follow?
Read the entire manual before you assemble or use the bench. Keep your hands away from all moving parts, and wear appropriate workout clothing and running or training shoes. Use the bench only for its intended purpose. Never use it if it isn’t functioning properly.

Can I use the bench outdoors or in a garage?
No. The bench is for in-home use only. Don’t use or store it outdoors.

How do I maintain the bench?
Regularly inspect the bench for loose hardware, and tighten any hardware that has come loose. Locate and familiarize yourself with all warning decals, and replace any that are damaged. Replace damaged or worn upholstery right away.
