The treadmill is equipped with a railing that extends along both sides. This allows the
user to maintain direct contact, so as to obtain safety and stability during training.
For safety reasons, the user should hold on to the railing when necessary (e.g. for stop-
ping).
CAUTION
Risk of Injury Through Risk of Falling!
It is recommended to use the railing for mounting and dismounting!
The WOODWAY medical treadmills are equipped with a current limit control function
which reduces power consumption and increases safety. The main safety feature is the
current limiter after time overflow.
If the running belt is blocked for more than 10 seconds, the motor current will be re-
duced to 6A. This is always recommended in case something gets caught in the belt, as
it stops the belt automatically. Once the current limit control has been triggered, the mo-
tor torque is reduced to a minimum to prevent damage to the motor and electric system.
The requirement for low leakage current is important for medical clinics, physical therapy
facilities, and hospitals.
The treadmill functions are designed so that the power plug and input power transform-
er are subjected to low leakage current. With an input power transformer with low leak-
age current, the leakage treadmill current can be reduced to less than 200 micro-amps
(uA).

WOODWAY treadmills have a slip-resistant surface alongside the running surface. This
offers additional grip when dismounting and prevents the feet from slipping off of the
side panels.
The slip-resistant surface should be checked periodically for wear or lack of grip and
replaced if necessary.
In emergencies, dismount the treadmill as follows:
 Jump onto and straddle the side panels.
 The running surface can run between the legs.
 Then stop the treadmill using the normal STOP button or the emergency stop but-
ton.
An alternative is to stand on the side panel with both feet on one side of the running
surface, right or left and to hold on to the railing. The STOP button or emergency stop
button may then be used to bring the running belt to a stop.
WARNING
Components Must Not Interfere With Use of Device!
Adjustment and safety components (e.g. emergency stop pull-cord, video rail-
ing, connected devices) must be secured properly so as not to interfere with
the proper use and movement of the treadmill and user.
