Care of your TreadClimber® Exercise Machine

! 4 4 % . 4 ) / .

The Bowflex® TreadClimber® machine’s safety and integrity can only be maintained when it is regularly examined for damage and immediately repaired.

It is the sole responsibility of the owner to ensure that regular maintenance is performed. Worn or damaged components still under warranty must be replaced immediately and the TreadClimber® machine shall remain unused until the required repair is made. Only manufacturer-supplied or approved components shall be used to maintain and repair the TreadClimber® machine.

Always unplug your treadclimber MACHINE from the outlet before cleaning or servicing the unit.

Helpful Hints

Read all maintenance instructions thoroughly before beginning 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® machine ready to exercise.

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, the machine mat reduces your TreadClimber® motor’s exposure to dust and debris. And it gives your workout area a clean, finished look.

Initial Service

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

Accessories

For best performance, we recommend your TreadClimber® 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® machine’s motor and belts, and will reduce static electricity, which could otherwise cause a sudden charge to the TreadClimber® machine’s electronic components.

Cleaning

General cleaning of the TreadClimber® machine will prolong the life of your machine and improve performance.

Keep the unit clean by dusting regularly. Be sure to dust the exposed part of the deck on either side of the walking belts and also the side rails.

Clean the top of the belt with a damp, soapy cloth and wipe carefully and thoroughly with a dry cloth. Be careful to keep liquid away from inside the base frame and beneath the belts.
