Disabling the Treadmill
Disabling is required if the safety of the treadmill is not guaranteed or if it is suggested that this could
be the case.
A device must be disabled if the following symptoms occur:
•
Unusual noises
•
Appearance of smoke
•
Uncontrolled stopping or accelerating of the treadmill
•
Rocking of the running surface belt
•
Damage to slats or other mechanical damage
•
Spilling of liquid on the treadmill
•
Other symptoms/situations which could cause danger to the user/operator
Disabling can also be requested of WOODWAY Customer Service by telephone. In this case, the
treadmill representative is obliged to carry out the disabling and to confirm with WOODWAY
Customer Service in writing.
Exceeding the test periods by several months (see previous chapter) also makes temporary disabling
of the treadmill necessary.
ATTENTION
The representative is responsible for property damage or personal
damages caused by incorrectly disabling or not disabling the treadmill.
The disabling of the treadmill must be such that an unintentional and/or unauthorized restart can be
ruled out and that the name of person who is authorized to put the treadmill back into operation can
be seen.
The representative is to disable medical treadmills in the following situations:
•
There is reasonable suspicion of danger to the health and safety of patients, employees, or
third parties
•
Defects exist that could endanger patients, employees, or third parties
The removal of the power plug from the outlet alone is not sufficient for the disabling of the treadmill,
since third persons who have not been informed about the disabling could plug the treadmill back
into the power supply and use it.
