Dear customer,
We would like to express our gratitude for putting your trust in us, in deciding for this top of the range running machine.
Since 1988 we have been developing and manufacturing running machines for sports and medical application. When it
comes down to technology, design and safety, we have set extremely high standards for ourselves.
Because the running machine is a motor-driven device, you must pay special attention to the mentioned safety regulations. If
proper notice is taken of the safety regulations, the operation of our running machines is almost without any risk. The neglect
of the safety regulations could result in dangerous situations and serious accidents. Therefore please read the installation
and operation manual and the danger precautions before taking the device into operation.
Some simple maintenance (no repair work!), as described, can easily be done by yourself. We recommend to call our
competent service team or entering into a maintenance contract for a routine service in an interval of 6 or 12 months. A form
for registration of your institution and device is included in the delivery. In order to be able to supply you with the latest
technical information and service, it is important for you to fill out the form. Therefore please fill out the form for registration
immediately and send it back via fax.
The instruction manual as a firm part of the delivery has to be accessible for the user at any time. This instruction manual
has been written with great care. Should you, however, still find any details, which do not correspond with your device,
please give us notice, so that we can correct any mistakes as soon as possible. Subject to alterations without prior notice,
errors and omissions excepted. E & OE.
We wish you a lot of fun and success while exercising and working with your h/p/cosmos running machine.
h
Franz Harrer
President

[3.]Introduction
[3.A] Description of the device and its intended application
A treadmill is an exercise machine for running or walking while staying in one place.
The h/p/cosmos treadmill device is a stationary treadmill which is used for training and testing The medical versions can
also be used for diagnostics and therapy applications.
The machine provides a moving platform with a wide conveyor belt and an electric motor. The belt moves to the rear
allowing a person to walk or run an equal, and necessarily opposite, velocity. The rate at which the belt moves is the
rate of walking or running. Thus, the speed of running may be controlled and measured.
[3.B] Position on the treadmill
The normal position of the walking or running subject should be at the front 40% of the running deck length. Up to 70%
of the front of the running deck length can be utilized. The rear 30% of the running belt length shall not be used and
shall remain as safety space. Safety harnesses such as safety stop cord type (safety lanyard with pull-cord actuator)
and/or safety arch with harness, chest belt and stop function and/or unweighting systems with patient vest and harness
shall be adjusted in a way, that the subject can not use the rear 30% of the running deck length.
Example:
Model h/p/cosmos quasar med
A: 170 cm = 100%: total length of running surface
B: 68 cm = 40%: recommended position for heel strike
C: 51 cm = 30%: tolerated position for exercise
D: 51 cm = 30%: not tolerated position for exercise
shall remain unused for safety space
[3.C] Treadmill-Patient-Interface
Duration of use of the medical versions is approx. 5 to 25 minutes per patient per day, depending on the prescription of
the doctor, the condition of the patient and depending on the standardized or individual load protocol (for example
BRUCE Protocol).
Contact with the body is occurring through walking shoes on the running belt, through hand palms on handrail grips in
some cases when the patient holds the handrail, through chest belt in case the patient wears the chest belt and harness
for heart rate detection and/or for fall stop prevention, on forearms in case the patient utilizes the optional arm support
and through fingers in case the patient is allowed to press keyboard and/or emergency button on the UserTerminal of
the device. There is no physical contact to organs, tissues or body fluids.

[3.F] Mechanical characteristics
Running surface of the model “h/p/cosmos quasar med” for example is 170 x 65 cm / 66.0 x 25.6 inches,
frame size 230 x 105 x 140 cm (90.6 x 41.3 x 55.1 inches).
Running surface of the model “h/p/cosmos pulsar” for example is 190 x 65 cm / 74.8 x 25.6 inches, frame size 250 x 105
x 140 cm (98.4 x 41.3 x 55.1 inches), machine’s weight approx. 400 kg (884 lbs), max. subject weight on running deck:
200 kg (440lbs). The treadmill has both side handrails and is in compliance with the norm EN 957-1 / EN 957-6. The
overall impression is very sturdy, reliable and safe.
[3.G] Performance claims & performance data
The treadmill is simulating various adjustable speeds and various adjustable gradients to the subject. Performance data
see operation manual technical specifications.
The recommended and right endurance and dose of the load parameter (speed and elevation) and specific application
in medical diagnostics and therapy is decided and supervised by the doctor.
The treadmill is not calculating any medical parameter, is not performing any medical diagnosis and is not giving any
recommendations for treatment.
The medical treadmill can support the doctor and patient in their decision to perform stress tests and in physical
movement of walking and running.
Load simulation such as speed and elevation are non critical, as long as the device is used by adults and healthy
subjects in similar way to load and stress in daily life (walking and running) and on a deck size of approx. L: 150cm x W:
50cm until L: 190cm x W: 65cm which is an “unwritten standard” for medical and professional treadmills. The load and
condition to the subject will be very much similar independent from such size and configuration details, since the used
load and condition to the patient will be independent from the detailed possible treadmill specs, because in diagnostics
and therapy load protocols such as speed and elevation and duration are mainly standardized. See protocols such as
Bruce, Naughton, Cooper, Ellestad A, Gardner, etc.
[3.H] Describe how the device achieves its intended purpose
The patient is asked to follow the speed of the belt and keep his position on the deck. By walking and/or running the
physical condition of the patient can be analysed through treadmill stress test protocol and additional ECG or VO2max.
(metabolic cart) diagnostic device. In physiotherapy and neurologic application the patient can be additionally secured
and un-weighted with body weight support system and the gait can be analysed and corrected under safe and re-
producible conditions.

[3.I] Specific safety or performance claims made for the device:
Manufacturer’s statement:
For all risk applications or any use with patients, where falling would lead to very dangerous situations (for example after
hip replacement operations, patients with neurologic problems, patients connected to invasive probes, maximum load
tests, etc.) a fall prevention system like a safety arch with chest harness and stop-function or an unweighting system (for
example the h/p/cosmos airwalk) is obligatory for such applications. Automatic stop of the running belt in the moment a
fall occurs. The chest belt secures the subject and prevents falling over to the front. The chest belt straps do not pinch or
restrict the athlete. The chest belt is connected via harness with the emergency stop at the crossbar of the safety arch. If
there is more than approx. 8 kg / 17.6 lbs traction pulling on the harness, the switch will stop the running belt
immediately. The length of the harness is individually adjustable.
Unweighting systems as an accessory (for example the h/p/cosmos airwalk) can be used for body weight support of the
patient, in case the patient should not bear his full body weight on his legs, for example after hip operation.
A safety stop cord type (e.g. safety lanyard with magnetic switch) can be attached to the subject. The safety stop cord
type shall limit the range of motion of the subject to the 70% of the front part of the running deck length.
The actuator cord shall have a suitable length so that the actuator releases/triggers at a position not more than 70 % of
the length of the running surface.
In case the subject cannot catch up with the speed and is falling behind to the rear 30% of the running deck length, or in
case the subject is falling, the safety stop cord type will trigger a stop function of the treadmill and will stop the running
belt.
Caution! The safety stop cord type can not prevent from falling and is therefore not as safe as the safety arch with chest
belt and fall prevention or the unweighting system!
[3.J] Emergency buttons:
The big and well visible emergency-stop-button is standard at all models, placed at the handrail or UserTerminal for
easy access. An additional emergency-stop-button can be retro-fitted at all h/p/cosmos running machines, for example
to be duplicated on the opposite site handrail.
Extract from the norm EN 957-6:
The push-button type or pull cord safety stop actuator shall be in a reachable position in front of the user and in an area
of ± 180 mm parallel to the centreline of the running surface.
If the push-button type safety stop actuator is outside this area it shall be duplicated on the opposite side except when a
pull-cord actuator is provided.
h/p/cosmos can supply a second and additional push button emergency stop button and/or a pull-cord actuator (safety
lanyard with magnetic stop) and/or a safety arch with chest belt, harness and fall stop function.
At all models of the category medical the main push button emergency-stop is simultaneously an emergency-off, that
means by pushing this button the power supply of the device gets cut off.

[4.]Safety, warnings, precautions, prohibitions
[4.A] Safety precautions, safety regulations, prohibitions and warnings
NUse medical running machines and accessories only under permanent supervision of your doctor or/and medical
staff. Use sports running machines and accessories only under permanent supervision of your trainer.
NUsing the running machine and the accessories without supervisory staff and introduction is forbidden.
NBefore using the running machine, read the operation manual, safety precautions and safety regulations carefully.
NStart with slow walking. After some minutes increase the speed slowly according to your fitness level.
NIt is strongly recommended to visit a doctor before using an exercise device.
NAlways train with sports clothing and sports or running shoes (no spikes) - never run barefoot.
NAt the time of use the emergency-stop has to be in reach for the subject and the supervisory staff at any time.
NUse emergency-stop only if in danger or in danger of falling.
NAt set elevation (e.g. by pressing the stop-button or the emergency-off-button, power failure, etc.), the bodyweight
of the subject and the force of gravity may cause an acceleration of the running belt. Do not step on the slant of
roller when getting on or off the running surface; the gravity force might cause a movement of the running belt.
NDangerous capture areas/gaps at the elevation system as well as at the rear end and the sides of the running belt.
(At reverse belt rotation: danger as well at the motor hood and the front area).
NPlease make sure that, in case of a fall, subjects with long hair, wide clothes, jewellery, etc. do not get caught in
the capture area at the rear end of the running belt. Possibly use a hairnet and make the subject aware of the
danger or secure the person with a safety harness against fall. Do not deposit any clothes, towels, jewellery, etc.
on the running machine – because of danger of tripping over and danger of capturing.
NChildren and animals are not allowed to use the running machine and must not get too near (4 m distance) to it.
NUsing the running machine under the influence of alcohol, drugs and/or anesthetic is prohibited.

NWhen using the treadmill for load tests, a medical doctor and a defibrillator has to be within reach at any time.
Therefore pay special attention to your country-specific regulations.
[4.B] Exit the device in emergency case; emergency dismount
Emergency dismount (e.g. in danger of stumbling and/or falling, etc.) can be done e.g. by grabbing the front handlebar
or both side handrails and jumping with both feet on the foot rails (step-platforms). In any emergency case the
emergency button has to be pressed instantly!
[4.C] Emergency Off, Emergency Stop and Safety Stop Devices and functions
Based on the norm EN 957-6, all power driven treadmills shall be equipped with a safety stop switch, which shall include
a push-button operated switch and/or a pull-cord operated switch.
The push-button type or pull cord safety stop actuator shall be in a reachable position in front of the user and in an area
of ± 180 mm parallel to the centreline of the running surface.
If the push-button type safety stop actuator is outside this area it shall be duplicated on the opposite side except when a
pull-cord actuator is provided. Operating the safety stop shall result in the machine cutting off the main power of the
motor and the inclination system without relying on any software functions.
The contacts of manually operated safety stop devices shall ensure positive opening. The achievement of contacts
separation shall be the direct result of a specified movement of the switch actuator through non resilient members.
Emergency stop relays or manually reset fail-safe relays may be used.
It shall not be possible to restore the circuit until the actuator of the safety stop device has been manually reset. After
restoring the circuit the equipment shall restart with standstill and the incline shall stay the same or reset.
Where several safety stop devices are provided, the circuit shall not be restored until all actuators previously operated
have been reset. Pull-cord safety stop actuators shall release with a maximum force of 50 % of the force required to
release the attachment device when attached to the user according to the manufacturers' recommendation.
The actuator cord shall have a suitable length so that the actuator releases at a position not more than 70 % of the
length of the running surface.
All h/p/cosmos running machines have at least ONE electric emergency stop device, which result in the machine
cutting off the main power of the motor and the inclination system without relying on any software functions.
However, in a number of cases and situations it is reasonable and important to have additional safety stop devices
and quick stop devices, which can even use the electric power to stop the drive motor faster and which can maintain
interface communication with connected host devices, such as PC, ECG, etc. when used in medical field.
Therefore h/p/cosmos devices can be equipped with a number of additional emergency stop devices and functions
which are not cutting off the main power.
This means that h/p/cosmos is in compliance with the norm EN 957-6 and offers additional safety features.
