Regular inspections / examinations
To keep the condition of the device in due order, examinations have to be performed regularly
according to the local laws and requirements of your country (e.g. in Germany based on BGV
A3, regulations for prevention of accidents as well as safety requirement inspections in
accordance with MDD Medical Device Directive, etc.).
For the next inspection date refer to the date on the inspection sticker on your device.
For h/p/cosmos sports and medical running machines and ladder ergometers, a maintenance interval respectively
technical safety checks of one year have been set. These examinations are only to be performed by trained and
authorized electricians.
The main inspection sticker on the device (e.g. running machine) also certifies the inspection of the optional equipment
and the accessories. However, inspection intervals for optional equipment and accessories (e.g. rope of h/p/cosmos
airwalk unweighting system, chest belt for safety harness, compressors, etc.) may deviate significantly from inspection
intervals of the main device. Read the manuals for details.
For all required measurements and control steps consider also local requirements of your country and see
detailed instruction and protocol form order no. [cos11690xx].
