How to Use Your Machine

Maintenance and Care of Your Bowflex Xceed® Home Gym

Inspect your machine for any worn or loose components prior to use. Tighten or replace any worn or loose components prior to use. Pay close attention to cables, straps, or harness and their connections.

Clean the bench with a non-abrasive household cleaner after each use. This will keep it looking new. Do not use automotive cleaner, which can make the bench too “slick.”

Review all warning notices. The safety and integrity designed into a machine can only be maintained when the equipment is regularly examined for damage and repaired. It is the sole responsibility of the owner to ensure that regular maintenance is performed. Worn or damaged components shall be replaced immediately or the equipment removed from service until the repair is made. Only manufacturer supplied components shall be used to maintain/repair the equipment.

If you have any questions regarding your Bowflex Xceed™ home gym, please contact our Customer Service Department at 1-800-605-3369 or by mail to: Customer Service, Nautilus, Inc. World Headquarters, 16400 SE Nautilus Drive, Vancouver, Washington, USA 98683.
