The Difference in the Treadles
When you use the Bowflex® TreadClimber® fitness machine in a TreadClimber® Workout mode, the treadles move-
in an up and down motion, while the belts operate as a treadmill moving around the treadle deck. You can turn off the
function which makes the belts move around the treadle deck. By stopping the belts from moving around the treadle
deck you have transformed your Bowflex® TreadClimber® fitness machine into a stepping machine. The treadles will
continue to move up and down, however, the belts will no longer move around the treadle deck stopping the walking
motion. Instead of walking on the belts, you will step on them, just like a StairMaster® stepping machine. To change
your TreadClimber® fitness machine into a stepper workout machine follow the instructions below.
