Care of your treadclimber® fitness machine

Helpful Hints

Read all maintenance instructions thoroughly before beginning any repair work. In some cases, an assistant is required to perform the necessary tasks. All references to the right or left side, and to the front or back are made as if you were on the TreadClimber® fitness machine facing the console ready to exercise.

Initial Service

Upon receiving your TreadClimber® fitness machine, use a soft, clean towel to wipe off the dust that may have accumulated during shipping. Your new fitness machine will require minor assembly. Refer to the Assembly Guide in this manual for details.

Accessories

For best performance, we recommend your TreadClimber® fitness machine be placed on a rubber machine (treadmill) mat. Along with reducing noise, a rubber mat will help keep dust and debris away from your TreadClimber® fitness machine’s motor and belts, and will reduce static electricity, which could otherwise cause a sudden charge to the TreadClimber® fitness machine’s electronic components.

The Bowflex® TreadClimber® Machine Mat is a professional-quality machine mat designed specifically to fit under your Bowflex® TreadClimber® fitness machine and provide added stability. In addition to protecting your floors from scratches and perspiration, it gives your workout area a clean, finished look.
