possible freedom of movement. Well suited for therapy with

h/p/cosmos adjustable handrails for locomotion series
Available for the h/p/cosmos running machine of the “locomotion series” exclusively.
Reproducibility of adjustments
To obtain reproducibility, the individually optimal adjustments for each subject must be determined (see scaling at the
gas pressure cylinders) and noted accordingly (e.g. in a patient file). We have deliberately refrained from offering
standard settings for particular heights because the adjustment can widely differ according to the posture and the
individual situation of the testing person.
Safety precautions and operation
N
The max. load is limited to 200 kg (440 lbs) body weight.

The positioning of the adjustable bar handrails must not be executed under load or pressure on the handrail.

The adjustment and use of the adjustable bar handrails is reserved for trained and experienced personnel, and
should always be done under supervision.

At least once per year check the functioning of the bar handrails by exposing the bar handrail to a load of approx.
200 kg (e.g. 3 persons) with locked levers.
