3-6 Maintenance/Troubleshooting Cardiac Stress Treadmills User Guide
3. Slide the rear roller guard towards the rear roller until the
gap between the two is approximately 0.1 inch (2.5 mm
or the thickness of two quarters).
4. Tighten the mounting screws loosened in Step 2.
5. Connect the power cord.
Warning! Do not permit anyone to stand on the treadmill belt
when it is started.
6. Use the controls on the monitoring system to start the
treadmill belt. If there is a scraping noise by the rear
roller guards, redo steps 1 through 6.
Electrical Testing
Electrical testing is to be done by the facility’s biomedical
department as required. Check the leakage current of the
treadmill periodically—at least every nine months—to be sure
it does not exceed local or provincial standards.
Moving and Storing the treadmill
Warning! Moving the treadmill requires two people.
1. If you are using a Quinton Q-Stress system, remove the
Q-Stress preamp if it is attached to the handrail.
2. Set the treadmill to 3 to 5% grade.
3. To avoid electric shock, turn off the treadmill circuit
breaker and the monitoring system, then remove the
power cord from the power source.
Warning! As long as the treadmill is plugged into a powered
outlet and the treadmill circuit breaker is set to ON,
the treadmill is receiving power, even when the
monitoring system is turned off. Do not place hands
beneath the treadmill while it is plugged in.
4. Together, lift the rear of the treadmill, then roll it to the
new site using the wheels on the front of the treadmill.
