Assembly Guide

Before You Assemble

Basic assembly Principals

Here are few basic assembly tips that can make

assembly of your Bowflex

TreadClimber

exercise

machine quick and easy.

1. You can make the assembly process go faster

by gathering the pieces you need for each step

prior to starting the step.

2. As a general rule, and for all bolts and locknuts

on your Bowflex

TreadClimber

exercise

machine, turning toward the right will tighten,

turning towards the left will loosen. An easy

way to remember this is by remembering the

expression, “Lefty loosey, righty tighty.”

3. All of the tools needed for assembly of your

Bowflex

TreadClimber

exercise machine have

been included. You may find the use of a utility

knife or scissors beneficial during the unpacking

and assembly process.

Select Your Workout area

Select where you are going to put your Bowflex

TreadClimber

exercise machine carefully. The

best place for your TreadClimber

machine is on a

hard, level surface. You will need at least two feet

on each side and in front of your TreadClimber

machine, and at least three feet behind it for

dismount.
Make sure that the location you choose has a

grounded, 3-prong power outlet within reach of

the TreadClimber

machine power cord, preferably

to the right side of the machine where you will be

less likely to step on the cord during dismount.
NOTE: The TreadClimber

machine is designed to

plug into a grounded, non-GFI outlets only. To

determine if your outlet or circuit breaker is GFI,

look for a test and reset button on them. If they

have the test and reset button it is a GFI outlet or

circuit breaker.
Further, if you ever perform any repairs on your

TreadClimber

machine that require you to lay it

on its side, you will need at least five feet to one

side of your workout area.

Machine Mat
The Bowflex

TreadClimber

Machine Mat is an

optional accessory for the TreadClimber

machine

that helps keep your workout area free from debris

and dust. The rubber machine floor mat provides a

non-slip surface for you to use when mounting and

dismounting the TreadClimber

machine and limits

static discharge when you touch the machine—

greatly 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

machine.
Put your Bowflex

TreadClimber

Machine Mat n

place in your selected workout area before you

start assembly to protect your floors and your

TreadClimber

machine from damage.

Positioning Your Treadclimber

Machine

Take great care when moving your TreadClimber

machine into place prior to assembly.
There are two handles for lifting on the back of the

base and two wheels on either side of the front of

the base beneath the console. The TreadClimber

machine requires 90 pounds of force to raise

the base the 30 degrees necessary to roll it on

the front wheels for storage or cleaning. As this

is a considerable amount of force, it is highly

recommended that you do not attempt to ever lift or

move the TreadClimber

machine without help.

When you assemble the TreadClimber

machine,

you will need at least two people to set the base

in place, place the treadles, and lift the handlebar

assembly.
