All kinds of installation and repair work and most maintenance work are to be performed only by trained and authorized technicians who have been certified by h/p/cosmos. The followig symbols will indicate which work can be done by the customer and which work has to be done only by authorized technicians: The customer / user should perform this maintenance and monitoring work.
A running machine (also called “treadmill ergometer”) is an exercise device for running or walking while staying in one place. The h/p/cosmos running machines are stationary treadmills which are used for training and testing, simulating various adjustable speeds and various adjustable elevations (also called “slope”). The medical versions can also be used for diagnostics and therapy applications.
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.
Intended use, contraindications, risks & forbidden use The intended application, discussed in the following, can be performed with any h/p/cosmos treadmill model, although there are more or less recommended solutions. Consider obligatory safety accessories (for example unweighting systems, optional safety arch with chest belt system for fall stop prevention and optional arm support for additional stabilization of the patient, adjustable handrails, etc.) as described in the respective chapters.

A safety arch with chest belt and fallstop is also obligatory in this case. h/p/cosmos devices must not be used in environmental conditions other than those specified in the chapter „Technical specifications“ and “Environmental conditions” (e.g. in wet and humid areas, swimming pools, sauna, environmental chambers, high-pressure-, low-pressure, altitude- and oxygen-chambers, etc.).
Any other use than that explicitly listed in the field of application is prohibited. Use of the h/p/cosmos medical treadmills in a home environment and/or in public and/or operation by persons who are not medically trained staff is not allowed.
Children are only allowed to use the running machine under constant supervision of a medical doctor and only when safeguarded by safety arch with chest belt system. Additionally h/p/cosmos recommends the use of adjustable handrails. When using the treadmill for load tests, a medical doctor and a defibrillator are to be within reach at any time.

If the treadmill is being controlled via ECG, pay special attention to the ECG manufacturer’s manual! The summary of clinical data and the risk management of h/p/cosmos does NOT cover any measured parameters and/or vital functions which are measured and/or detected by host devices (e.g. ECG, ergospirometry devices, EMG, etc.) which are connected to the treadmill.
The emergency stop button is to be pressed immediately! h/p/cosmos is in compliance with the norm EN 957-6 and offers more safety features than required, as shown in the following tables. In all below mentioned cases, all displayed values will be reset to “0”.
More recent computers will only have a USB interface instead of the RS232 interface. In that case, a „USB to RS232 interface adapter“ is available at h/p/cosmos under order number [cos12769]. For control via USB interface the processor must be a Pentium 1.8 GHz or higher. To use all functions described below and for maintenance and service, we recommend the PC software h/p/cosmos para control (Freeware).
® ® Kistler force measurement plates. It is the only h/p/cosmos treadmill with these features. The system measures the vertical ground reaction forces and thereby collects a large amount of force and time-based gait parameters. The total force path can be displayed with the Kistler Gaitway software .

All kind of installation and repair work as well as most maintenance work is to be carried out only by trained and authorized technicians who have been certified by h/p/cosmos. The following symbols will indicate which work can be done by the customer and which work has to be done by authorized technicians: The customer / user should perform this maintenance and monitoring work.
In case the required lubrication, quantity and quality is not assured due to lack of inspections by the user and/or lack of maintenance by authorized h/p/cosmos service technicians, early damage to the running belt and running surface can occur and warranty will expire.
For this reason the worst case malfunction scenario has to be taken into account. h/p/cosmos classifies the internal firmware and software components as class B due to a number of risk reducing design features and measurments.
Within Germany, most devices are delivered and assembled by h/p/cosmos directly or by an authorised forwarder. If delivered by h/p/cosmos, the packaging will be removed and recycled.
The bearing capacity of floor and ceiling in the building must be higher than the weight of the machine. An authorized body of the operator must certify the bearing capacity for the h/pcosmos device. For example, the h/p/cosmos saturn 300/100r: dimensions ground frame running machine: L: 3400 mm x B: 1490 mm = 5.066 m² platform. Net static weight of running machine: 1300 kg, static body weight of subject: 200 kg, dynamical weight of subject: 1200 kg (up to 6 times the body weight), total weight load of system at platform: 2500 kg = required dynamic bearing capacity (493.48 kg (~...
The transportation locks have to be removed after setup on the h/p/cosmos gaitway model with integrated force plate. Drive elevation up to max of 25 %. Loosen the four M8 screws, marked with the red arrows on the underside of the aluminum force plates, and remove them.
To start again, switch on the running machine at the main ”ON“ switch and press START at the keyboard. h/p/cosmos running machines are to be installed at a voltage power connection with ground wire (earthing,) including leakage-current protection switch (interrupter) and according to VDE 0100 or/and the currently valid regulations and directives.

All other interface protocols (older versions coscom v2, coscom v1, coscomekg.dll, other treadmill manufacturers, etc.) are not validated by h/p/cosmos according to the norms EN 62304 and EN 14971 and must not be used for medical applications (e.g. ergometry, stress-tests, cardiorespiratory diagnostics, performance diagnostics, etc.) since March 21,...
In case the manufacturer declares multiple sockets as valid, these must not be located on the floor in order to prevent soaking by liquids or mechanical damage. h/p/cosmos herewith informs about all above and below mentioned risks, warnings and obligations. Responsibility for system integration: The operator of ME equipment and ME systems (ME=medical-electrical) is to appoint a so-called system integrator, responsible for taking care of the tasks that result from the norm.
Then, the h/p/cosmos employee / h/p/cosmos partner instructs the user according to the instruction protocol in appendix 2. It is important to include all people in the instruction and commissioning who are going to work with the running machine. After the instruction is completed, the instruction protocol has to be signed by the h/p/cosmos technician and all trained persons and returned, together with the signed delivery note and the registration form, to h/p/cosmos.
Preventive maintenance The h/p/cosmos authorised service engineers are happy to help you in case problems occur. Preventive maintenance can prevent future problems and is indispensable for the safety of technical devices. Therefore, ask our service department for an annual preventive maintenance contract, which is highly recommended by the manufacturer.
The main inspection sticker on the device (e.g. running machine) also certifies the inspection of the optional equipment and the accessories. However, inspection intervals for optional equipment and accessories (e.g. rope of h/p/cosmos airwalk unweighting system, chest belt for safety harness, compressors, etc.) may deviate significantly from inspection intervals of the main device.
An h/p/cosmos authorized technical service engineer will then advise what corrective action needs to be taken. Use original h/p/cosmos special oil only. The use of other oils or the failure to lubricate regulary may damage the running belt, running deck or the lubrication system and reduce warranty and liability. h/p/cosmos recommends a maintenance contract with an authorized h/p/cosmos service partner.
Lubricant is available on request at h/p/cosmos. The running belt should be lubricated after 1000 km at the latest and/or ifdry grinding noises are heard during operation.
Based on previous experience, h/p/cosmos is able to evaluate the quantity of oil absorbed by measuring the difference in weight. However, the user should realize that this test can only show approximate values and trends and is not meant to replace the direct inspection by an authorized h/p/cosmos technician at the prescribed time intervals.
Please contact h/p/cosmos to order the special oil. The running belt should be lubricated after 1000 km at the latest or/and if dry grinding noises are detected during operation. Special devices may have different intervals.
Page 104
For those models a lubrication test (tissue-test) according the instructions (available from h/p/cosmos) should be performed during the obligatory yearly maintenance. The test should be sent back to h/p/cosmos for evaluation.
Open the lid of the tank and refill the oil-tank with approximately 0.5 litres of the provided original oil, which can be ordered at h/p/cosmos. For devices constructed before 2002 and without an external control unit, add approximately 1 to 1.5 litres) Close the lid of the oil-tank, plug in the power plug and switch the device on.
