N
Reverse belt rotation:
N
Turn the key-operated switch for reverse belt rotation only when the running belt is not moving.
N
Since the subject is running against the usual running belt rotation and therefore has no control of the
UserTerminal, it is necessary to have a supervisor to control the running machine during the training and a
safety arch with chest belt system for fall prevention. The models with a crossbar handrail or a motor case
cover are equipped with a limited maximum speed.
If unauthorized persons are believed to have access to the running machine or if there are other reasons to lock
the device, it has to be blocked for restart. See OP40 in chapter 0 entitled “
Optional settings: User Options”.
N
Special cases:
N
Elevation control after STOP:
Setting OP 41 to value 1 affects the safety of the subject and third parties. A down movement of the elevation
after pressing STOP can result in confusion leading to serious injuries. h/p/cosmos strongly recommends
keeping the standard setting of this option. Stop means stop for all movements and should not activate the
running machine in any way. It is only allowed to change option 41 after having received written instructions
regarding the dangers and after written confirmation of receipt by the customer/user.
N
Motor break:
Attention! If the device is switched off or disconnected from the power supply, the motor break will not work!
After 10 seconds of operation, the motor break is released automatically and is only activated again after a belt
movement. A short jerk may occur during reactivation.

Machine care
In case of any detected and/or assumed malfunctions and/or defects or unreadable safety labels,
the device must be discontinued immediately. The device must be marked accordingly and its
operation discontinued (e.g. by pulling the power plug and affixing a warning/defect label on the
power plug). The supplier and authorised service personnel are to be informed in writing
immediately.
N
Damaged socket connections, wires and pressure control switches are to be replaced immediately by trained and
authorised personnel.
N
Fluid entering into the device is to be removed immediately by the authorized customer service and a safety check
is to be performed.
N
All wear and tear parts are to be replaced at least every two years or earlier if necessary due to first sign of wear
and/or damage.
