Treadles
Each Bowflex ®TreadClimbeP treadle is a separate treadmill with its own belt, however both treadles are
driven by the same axle and motor. This assures that each belt travels at the same speed. Further, the
treadles are interconnected, which provides a balanced relationship between the left and right sides during
the workout to give the most cushioned effect to your joints.
Locking the Treadles for Treadmill Workout
You may lock the right and left treadles together to get a treadmill workout at a 10% incline. This incline
will increase your overall calorie burn at a slower speed when compared to a standard treadmill.
To avoid possible unintended actuations of the treadles
with resulting injury,disconnect all power to machine
before locking or unlocking treadles.
The TreadClimber _ machine is equipped with a treadle-locking lever that can be manipulated with
your foot.
1. Turn off all power to the TreadClimbeP machine and unplug the power cord from the wall outlet.
2. Stand on the ground in front of the TreadClimbeP machine and move the treadles together until
they line up next to each other.
3. Move the locking lever downward and to the left and then upward into the 'locked' position with
your foot. You may need to gently rock the treadles up and down with your hand to lock the treadles
- you will hear a 'click'.
NOTE: Locking lever must be all the way to the top of the front plate. If not fully
engaged the treadles may unlock during workout.
4. Insert power cord into the wall outlet and turn on the Main Power Switch. Follow the Starting a
Treadmill Workout instructions for your model on Page 45 to work out in treadmill mode.
