Important Safety Precautions

10.Keep your hands on the support handlebars and stand as close to the front of the machine as is comfortable in order to remain in balance on the treadles.

11.Never convert from or into treadmill mode while the belts are in motion or the machine is powered up. Turn off power, unplug cord from wall outlet, line up the treadles, and then lock or release the treadle locking lever.

12.Never adjust the Hydraulic Cylinder Workout Settings while belts are in motion. Step completely off of the TreadClimber® machine, stop the belts, and turn the power off prior to adjusting.

13.Maximum user weight for the Bowflex® TreadClimber® exercise machine is 300 pounds (136 kg). For your safety, do not use or allow others to use the Bowflex® TreadClimber® exercise machine if they weigh in excess of 300 pounds (136 kg).

14.Make certain that observers stand clear of the Bowflex® TreadClimber® exercise machine when it is in use. Extra care must be taken when disabled persons or pets are nearby.

15.Never allow children to use the Bowflex® TreadClimber® exercise machine unsupervised. To do so could result in injury. Before children are allowed to use the equipment, their mental and physical development should be taken into account through consultation with their doctor, who must approve any exercise program before a child attempts it. Children should be controlled and instructed on the correct use of the equipment.

16.This equipment is under no circumstances suitable as a children’s toy.

17.For safety and security, when the TreadClimber® machine is not in use, always lock the treadles and remove the Safety Key.

18.Locate the TreadClimber® machine on a clean, hard, level surface, free from debris, or other objects that may hamper your ability to move freely. Always use a rubber mat beneath the TreadClimber® machine to ground it, to prevent static electricity discharge and to protect your flooring.

19.Do not use your TreadClimber® machine outdoors, on dirt floors, or in any damp or wet location.

20.Keep the surface of the TreadClimber® machine dry and free from dust or moisture.

21.Use only parts, attachments or accessories that are provided with the TreadClimber® machine.

22.Always connect the power cord to a circuit capable of handling 10 amperes with no other loads. Keep all cords away from heated surfaces.

23.Always unplug the power cord from the wall outlet before removing or installing parts to avoid the risk of electrocution, shock or mechanical injury.

24.Position the power cord alongside the Bowflex® TreadClimber® exercise machine, out of your way when you dismount the machine. Take care to avoid stepping on the power plug. Check cord and plug placement before beginning your workout.

25.Always be gentle when plugging in and unplugging the power cord from the machine base.

26.Never use the power cord if it has a damaged cord or plug, has been immersed in water, or is not working properly. Contact a TreadClimber® Representative to arrange for replacement of a damaged cord.

27.Never drop or insert any object into any opening on the machine.

28.Do not operate where aerosol (spray) products are being used.

29.Do NOT attempt to move the TreadClimber® machine without help, or from the front of the unit. Doing so could cause injury to you or damage the machine.

30.The TreadClimber® machine is intended for individual consumer use only, and is not meant for use by institutions.

31.The warning labels affixed to the TreadClimber® machine contain important information about your safety. Always read and follow the Warning and Safety labels. Do not remove these labels. If at any time the warning labels become loose, unreadable or dislodged, replacements are available by calling a Nautilus Representative.
