INTRODUCTION
Vertical movement is a new category of training that works the whole body and mind together. The
Treadwall will deliver a remarkable aerobic burn that anyone can “enjoy.” While simultaneously
challenging the upper-body core and grip strength exhausting even the fittest athletes. When
introducing the wall we suggest the staff understands its potential benefits and how to use it as a
fitness tool.
The owner’s manual is designed to help managers staff and trainers take full advantage of our
equipment. It is a reference tool that emphasizes the benefits of vertical movement links/resources
about how to integrate the wall into fitness routines useful incentive programs to help ramp up
popularity and much more.
The workout is effective fun and customizable so now it is up to you all to extend the knowledge to
your members and get them to try it out! Once the initial attempt is out of the way people will see for

HOW THE TREADWALL WORKS
It’s very simple, you can just hop on and climb! The weight of your body will move the wall downwards.
With our auto-stop technology, if you stop climbing, the Treadwall will stop and wait for you. The
Treadwall will not move unless you are on the wall and climbing upwards.

THEORY OF OPERATION
The Treadwall Kore Pro is completely powered by the climber. The wall does not rotate by itself,
but only when a person begins to climb on the machine. You can vary the speed of climbing with
the lever located on the right side of the machine. This lever controls a hydraulic resistance unit
located at the top of the right channel. The hydraulic resistance mechanism is connected via a
short chain.
The Kore Pro also contains our auto-stop system which is triggered when the weight of the climber

TREADWALL WIRING
Treadwall wiring - General overview
9 volt DC power is provided by a small universal plug-intransformer that is connected to a power
wire that is enclosed in the right support frame or channel. Polarity is important and has been
pre-set by the connectors (if incorrect no damage will happen but the display and auto-stop will not
work.)
Fromright side (frame top or bottom, depending on unit) the power wire enters the right channel
where it is connected to the interior wiring during assembly.
Fromthis connection, 9 volt DC power goes to both the auto-stop system and the display.
For the auto-stop system, negative voltage goes to the solenoid valve in the hydraulic unit and
positive voltage is sent down to the lower channel where it passes through a micro switch that
controls the auto-stop braking function. When the micro switch is activated by the climber's weight,
the circuit is completed and positive current is sent back up to the solenoid valve that hydraulically
brakes the wall.
For the display, a power wire plugs into the unit. A second plug receives the wire froma small reed
switch, which is mounted on the upper channel next to the top shaft and activates the distance and
time readout. Three paired magnets on the shaft pass close to the reed switch and trigger it as the
shaft rotates sending a signal to the display.

Safety Tips
Safety Tips
WARNING - Read all instrucons before assembling and using the Treadwall.
For Assembly:
Be careful when moving and installing larger Treadwall components, as they might require
effort to li and aach. Some steps require two indi iduals. Ha e a second person assist you
during assembly and ma e sure to have two ladders on hand. Several of the heaviest
components need to be lied to the top of the machine.
For General Use:
Carefully read and understand the Treadwall Owner’s Manual. Provide a general overview of
the basic operaons and usage to new Treadwall users. Do not place other equipment or any
items in the fall zone or onto the floor mat of the Treadwall.

Treadwall Kore Pro Owner’s Manual—2017
Assembly Instrucons
Before Assembly:
The most important first step is to consider carefully the locaon and posion of your
Treadwall. A locaon that is too isible - for example in the direct focus of members using CV
equipment or wal ing in the entrance - may discourage people from climbing. Oen simply
rotang the Treadwall slightly will dramacally impro e its usage.
The ground should be flat and level and the area directly around the Treadwall should be clear
of any hazards for the climber or trainer. The Treadwall fits well in the cardio area of a gym.
Tools required and set up:
In addion to the tool list you will need a helper and two ladders. If you are ght on space
begin by assembling the frame wor and then bring in the side channels and shroud and place
them directly onto the machine.
Assembly will ta e 6-8 hours, please read the enre assembly procedure prior to starng the
install. If you do ha e quesons please contact us at 1-800-707-9616.
