Wheelchair ramp
When using the wheelchair ramp pay particular attention to the gap
between ramp and running belt so that hands, hair, clothing or other
items do not get caught. The ramp must not touch the running belt as
this will lead to excessive wear. Ensure that the ramp is stable and
cannot slip. Be aware of danger of slipping or tripping on ramp. Do not
attempt to enter ramp from the side. Only original h/p/cosmos
wheelchair access ramps should be used.

Wheelchair stabilizer for oversize running machines
With the help of the h/p/cosmos wheelchair stabilizer, it is easy to keep
wheelchairs with 3 or 4 wheels safely in line. The guide rail is fixed
between the two pillars of the right-hand side handrail.
A front and a rear range limiter prevent the wheelchair from rolling too
far to the front / back.
The frame of the wheelchair is fixed with adjustable clamps to the
cross-bar of the stabilizer. The wheelchair application is only allowed in
combination with the safety harness (chest belt and fall stop). Take
care that the brakes on the wheelchair are deactivated (e.g. dismantle
brake suspension). Re-activate brakes of the wheelchair after
operating the wheelchair on the treadmill and before using the
wheelchair over-ground or on the street.

Adjust the range limiters properly to limit the operation range on the deck and to ensure the
wheelchair does not fall off from the deck to the front or to the back.

Before using the running machine for any application without a wheelchair (running, cycling,
skating etc.), the wheelchair stabilizer has to be dismantled for safety reasons.
N
No remaining dangerous barrier, crossbar or other part of the wheelchair stabilizer must obstruct or
injure the subject.

Safety arch with chest belt system
N
Every time before using the safety arch with chest belt system, a visual examination of the
system for detecting damage and wear-and-tear must be done. Especially the rope, the
harness and all links such as the snap hook and the rope brake must be checked.
N
All wear-and-tear parts of the system (rope, harness and all links such as snap hook and
rope brake) are to be changed immediately in case of damage. At least every two years, all
wearing parts are to be changed.
N
Neither chest harnesses, patient vests, nor waist belts with leash and cuffs are designed for
direct skin or mucous membrane contact. Wear appropriate clothing.
