Site Requirements
The treadmill requires a dedicated AC power line (refer to
“Power Requirements” on page B-2). To ensure electrical
safety, the treadmill is equipped with a three-wire power cord
and three-pronged plug. To maintain ground reliability, the
plug must be connected to an equivalent receptacle.
Caution! The treadmill is designed to operate in a typical
clinical environment with adequate heat dissipation
(1850 Watts maximum).
Place the treadmill on a flat surface, free of moisture and
debris. Maintain a minimum clearance of 1.5 feet (0.5 m) on
each side and 6 feet at the rear.
If the preamp for the Q-Stress system is to be attached to the
handrail, maintain a clearance of 1.5 feet (0.5 m) at the front
of the treadmill.
