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.
For more information on this accessory and other Bowflex® products available from Nautilus, Inc. check out: www. nautilus.com or www.treadclimber.com. Or contact a Nautilus Representative listed in the Important Contact Numbers section of this manual.
Cleaning
General cleaning of the TreadClimber® fitness machine will prolong the life of your machine and improve performance.
Keep the unit clean by dusting regularly. Be sure to dust exposed portion of the deck, either side of the walking belts and 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.

Walking Belt and Deck Lubrication
The TreadClimber® fitness machine is equipped with a pre-lubricated, low maintenance deck and belt system. Belt friction may affect the function and life of the TreadClimber® fitness machine. For the best results from your TreadClimber® fitness machine, always remember to lubricate the treadles periodically with a silicone lubricant, using
the following instructions:
1. Turn off and unplug the TreadClimber® fitness machine from the wall outlet, and remove the power cord from the incoming power plug on the front of the machine.
2. Gently lift each side of the TreadClimber® fitness machine’s belt and apply a small amount of the silicone lubricant directly onto the treadle beneath each belt while the treadle surfaces are warm (not hot).
ALWAYS UNPLUG THE POWER CORD FROM THE WALL OUTLET BEFORE REMOVING OR INSTALLING PARTS TO AVOID THE RISK OF ELECTROCUTION, SHOCK OR PERSONAL INJURY.
3. Plug the TreadClimber® fitness machine back into the machine base and then into wall outlet.
4. Stand to one side of your TreadClimber® fitness machine on the rubber mat.
5. Turn on your TreadClimber®
fitness machine, and start the belts at the slowest speed. Let the belts run for approximately 15 seconds.
6. Turn off your TreadClimber® fitness machine.
7. Take care to wipe up any excess silicone lubricant from the treadle deck surface area and your rubber floor mat.
NOTE: To reduce the possibility of slipping, be sure the treadle deck surface area is free from excess lubricant. Wipe off any
excess lubricant from the machine surfaces.
We also recommend a periodic inspection of the treadle surfaces under the belts. If the decks appear worn, contact a TreadClimber® Representative listed in the Important Contact Numbers section of this manual.
ALWAYS USE A SILICONE-BASED LUBRICANT. NEVER USE A LUBRICANT LIKE WD-40® ON THE BOWFLEX® TREADCLIMBER® FITNESS MACHINE, AS THIS COULD SERIOUSLY IMPACT PERFORMANCE.
Use the following timetable as a guide to lubricate the decks:
• Light user (fewer than 3 hours/week): annually
• Medium user (3-5 hours/week): every 6 months
• Heavy user (more than 5 hours/week): every three months
We recommend that you only use Silicone Spray, available at most Hardware and Auto Parts stores.

Inspecting
1. Visually inspect the TreadClimber® fitness machine every time you use it for wear, damage, or loose parts.
2. Inspect the frame for any rust, bubbling, or paint chips during the weekly cleaning. The salt in perspiration can
damage the unpainted surfaces.
3. Inspect the belts for excessive wear and tension during lubrication. Adjust the belt tension if necessary.
Storing Your TreadClimber® Fitness Machine
The TreadClimber® fitness machine weighs 350 pounds (147 kilograms) when fully assembled, and should never be moved or lifted without taking some precautionary care.
There are two handles for lifting on the front of the base beneath the console and two wheels on either side of the back of the base.
Due to the weight of the TreadClimber® fitness machine, it is highly recommended that you do not attempt to ever lift or move the TreadClimber® fitness machine without help.
When lifted properly, your TreadClimber® fitness machine can be rolled on the wheels for storage and/or cleaning. Failure to follow precautions could result in physical injury to you, or damage to the machine, or both.
DO NOT USE THE UPRIGHTS, ARMS, OR CONSOLE TO LIFT OR MOVE THE TREADCLIMBER® FITNESS MACHINE. DOING SO COULD CAUSE PHYSICAL INJURY TO YOU, AND COULD DAMAGE OR DESTROY THE TREADCLIMBER® FITNESS MACHINE.

Walking Belt Adjustment
If either of the walking belts seem to be tracking excessively to one side or the other, adjustments can be made at the front roller of each treadle.
Misalignment Test and Resolution
Visual Test – Standing beside the unit, set the speed at 2 MPH (3.2 KPH). Standing in front of the unit you will see adjustment bolts on each end of each front roller. If the belt is tracking too far to the right, tighten the right adjustment bolt on that roller using the provided hex key in full turn increments to realign belt. If the belt seems to be tracking too far to the left, do the same thing on the left adjustment bolt for that roller.
Belt Adjustment Bolts: Turn in full turn increments to adjust.
Walking Belt Correctly
Aligned
NOTE: Belts should not be so tight that you cannot get your hand under them when machine is turned off and
unplugged.

Select Your Workout Area
Select where you are going to put your Bowflex® TreadClimber® fitness machine carefully. The best place for your TreadClimber® fitness machine is on a hard, level surface. You will need at least 19 inches (0.5 meters) on each side and 79 inches (2 meters) in the rear of the machine for dismount.
Make sure that the location you choose has a power outlet within reach of the TreadClimber® fitness machine power cord, preferably to the front of the machine where you will be less likely to step on the cord during dismount.

Further, if you ever perform any repairs on your TreadClimber® fitness machine that require you to lay it on its side, you will need at least 5 feet (1.5 meters) to one side of your workout area.
Machine Mat
The Bowflex® TreadClimber® Machine Mat is an optional accessory for the TreadClimber® fitness machine that helps keep your workout area free from debris and dust. The rubber floor mat provides a non-slip surface for you to use when mounting and dismounting the TreadClimber® fitness machine and limits static discharge when you touch the machine, reducing the possibility of display or running errors. Further, a rubberized mat will protect your flooring when you are performing repairs or maintenance on the TreadClimber® fitness machine.
Put your Bowflex® TreadClimber® Machine Mat in place in your selected workout area before you start assembly to protect your floors and your TreadClimber® fitness machine from damage.
Positioning Your TreadClimber® Fitness Machine
Take great care when moving your TreadClimber® fitness machine into place prior to assembly.
Select a location for your TreadClimber® fitness machine with access to a non-GFI protected circuit, within reach of the power cord.
There are two handles for lifting on the front of the base below the console and two wheels on either side of the rear step of the base platform.
