PINCH HAZARD !!
The treadmill belt can travel at high speeds and is powered by a high
torque gear motor. This moving belt creates a pinch hazard as it passes
around the rolls and close to the treadmill floor at the entry end of the
treadmill. Serious injury can result if fingers or toes become trapped at
these pinch points. For this reason, the treadmill is not intended for human
use. Special care shall be taken to keep children away from this machine
when it is powered!!!!
ELECTRICAL SHOCK !!
Before opening any electrical enclosures, ensure that the power is
disconnected. Electrical shock can cause serious injury or death.
2.2
Horse Safety
Special care has been taken with the
TITAN Trainer
to minimize any
potential hazards for the horse. The wide ramps are covered with a non-slip
cleated belting to provide the horse with a sure-footed grip. No sharp edges
or corners are exposed where the horse could be injured. A horse shall not
be left unattended on the treadmill.
A tail strap restrains the horse from backing out of the treadmill. If the
tension in the tail strap becomes too high, the strap releases and the
treadmill stops. The tail strap release tension can be adjusted so that more
or less strap tension will cause the strap to release and the treadmill to stop.
The manual tail strap release on the left side of the machine can be
actuated even under high strap tension.
