Maintenance - Bowflex TreadClimber TC20 Assembly & Owners Manual

Read all maintenance instructions fully before you start any repair work. In some conditions, an assistant is required to do the necessary tasks.
Equipment must be regularly examined for damage and repairs. The owner is responsible to make sure that regular maintenance is done.
Worn or damaged components must be repaired or replaced immediately. Only manufacturer supplied components can be used to maintain
and repair the equipment.
To reduce the risk of electrical shock or unsupervised usage of the equipment, always unplug the power cord from the wall outlet
and/or the machine and wait 5 minutes before cleaning, maintaining or repairing the machine. Place the power cord in a secure location.
Daily:
Before each use, inspect for loose, broken, damaged, or worn parts. Do not use the machine if any of these conditions exist. Use a
dry cloth to wipe off any perspiration after each use.
Weekly: Check for smooth roller operation. Clean the machine to remove dust, dirt, or grime. Clean the top of the belt with a slightly damp,
soapy cloth and wipe carefully and thoroughly with a dry cloth. Do not let any liquid get below the belts or into the Base Frame.
Monthly:
Make sure all bolts and screws are tight. Tighten if necessary.
NOTICE: Do not clean with a petroleum based solvent or an automotive cleaner. Be sure to keep the Console free of moisture.
Walking Belt and Deck Lubrication
The TreadClimber machine is equipped with a low maintenance deck and belt system. Belt friction can affect the function and life of the machine.

Your TreadClimber fitness machine came with a starter supply of lubrication for the belts.

Lubrication Schedule
We recommend that you use one of the following:
• Lube-N-Walk Treadmill Lubrication Kit (available from your Bowflex
®
• 100% pure silicone, available at most hardware and auto parts stores.
As you use your fitness machine, the Console will show "LUbE" at set times. This is only a reminder and should be added to your inspection
schedule. Only apply lubricant as necessary. Push the START button to accept the reminder.
For the best results lubricate the Treadles periodically with a silicone lubricant, using the following instructions:
1. Unplug the machine fully from the wall outlet, and remove the power cord from the machine. Place the power cord in a secure location.
