Calibrating your Bowflex Treadclimber is an important step to ensure that the speed and distance measurements are accurate. Here are the general steps to calibrate your Bowflex Treadclimber:
- Turn off the machine and unplug it from the power source.
- Locate the calibration tool that came with your Bowflex Treadclimber. It is usually a small magnet that attaches to the machine.
- Place the calibration tool on the top of the right treadle, near the front of the machine.
- Plug in the machine and turn it on.
- Press the “Start” button to begin the calibration process.
- Follow the instructions on the screen to complete the calibration process. This usually involves stepping on the machine and allowing it to detect your weight and adjust the settings accordingly.
- Once the calibration process is complete, turn off the machine and remove the calibration tool.
- Wait a few seconds and then turn the machine back on to make sure that the speed and distance measurements are accurate.
Some Bowflex Treadclimber models may have slightly different calibration instructions, so it’s important to consult the user manual or contact Bowflex customer service if you’re unsure about the calibration process for your specific model.
Additionally, it’s important to note that calibration is not the same as maintenance. To keep your Bowflex Treadclimber in good working order, it’s important to regularly clean and lubricate the machine, tighten any loose bolts or screws, and check the safety features such as the emergency stop button and safety key.
Regular maintenance can also help prevent wear and tear on the machine and extend its lifespan. If you notice any unusual noises, vibrations, or other issues with your Bowflex Treadclimber, it’s best to address them promptly to avoid further damage and ensure safe operation.
It’s a good idea to calibrate your Bowflex Treadclimber periodically to ensure that it is functioning properly and providing accurate measurements. If you notice any issues with the speed or distance measurements, you may need to recalibrate the machine or contact Bowflex customer service for assistance.
