Care of the Machine
Walking Belt and Deck Lubrication
The TreadClimber
®
machine is equipped with a pre-lubricated, low maintenance deck and belt system. Belt friction may
affect the function and life of the TreadClimber
®
machine. For the best results from the TreadClimber
®
machine, lubricate the
treadles periodically with a silicone lubricant, using the following instructions:
1. Unplug the TreadClimber
®
machine completely from the wall outlet, and remove the power cord form the incoming
power plug.
Always unplug the power cord from the wall outlet and wait 10 minutes after unplugging the machine before
removing or installing parts to avoid the risk of electrocution, shock or mechanical injury.
2. While the TreadClimber
®
machine’s treadle surfaces are still warm (not hot), apply a very thin layer of silicone
lubricant directly onto the treadle beneath each belt. Gently lift each side of the belt and apply a few drops of the
lubricant.
Always use a silicone-based lubricant. Never use a de greaser like WD-40
®
on the Bowflex
®
TreadClimber
®
exercise machine as this could seriously impact performance.
3. Plug the TreadClimber
®
machine back into the machine base and then into the wall outlet.
4. Stand to one side of your TreadClimber
®
machine on the rubber mat.
5. Turn on your TreadClimber
®

seconds.
6. Turn off your TreadClimber
®
machine.
7. Take care to wipe up any excess lubricant from the treadles and your rubber floor mat. We also recommend a
periodic inspection of the treadle surfaces under the belts. If the decks appear worn, contact a TreadClimber
®
Representative (refer to the Important Contact Numbers page at the back of this manual).
To reduce the possibility of slipping, be sure the treadle area is free from grease or oil. Wipe off any excess oil
from the machine surfaces.
Use the following timetable as a guide to lubricate the decks:
