For Your Safety
■ The running belt should be used only for its intended purpose,
i.e. for physical exercise (walking and jogging) by one (1) adult
persons.
■ The running belt is not suitable for commercial use.
■ Any other use of the equipment is prohibited and may be dan-
gerous. The manufacturer cannot be held liable for damage or
injury caused by improper use of the equipment.
■ Damaged components may endanger your safety or reduce the
lifetime of the equipment. For this reason, worn or damaged
parts should be replaced immediately and the equipment taken
out of use until this has been done. Use only original KETTLER
spare parts.
■ The running belt has been designed in accordance with the latest
standards of safety. Incorrect repairs and structural modifications
(e.g. removal or replacement of original parts) may endanger
the safety of the user.
■ The running belt must be set up on firm even ground. Ensure that
the power cable is not pinched and that no-one can trip over it.
■ Always ensure that the space under the running belt is kept free,
i.e. that there are no objects, pets etc. beneath it.
■ Never touch the moving belt with your hands. Also ensure that
there are no objects close to the belt or the rollers which could
be pulled into it thus causing injury or damaging the unit itself.
■ The running belt “MARATHON SC“is not suitable for use by per-
sons weighing over 120 kg.
■ The unit should be positioned in such a way that there is a space
of 100 cm on both sides and 200 cm behind it.
■ The unit requires a power supply of 220-230 V / 50 Hz. It should
be connected only to an earthed safety socket with a single 16-A
fuse. Do not under any circumstances carry out electrical repairs or
alterations yourself. Always ensure that such work is done
by a properly qualified electrician.
■ Do not use a multiple power socket for the running belt. If an
extension cable is being used, ensure that it complies with the
VDE regulations.
■ When the unit is not in use, unplug it from the power supply.
■ To ensure that the safety level is kept to the highest possible stan-
dard, determined by its construction, this product should be ser-
viced regulary (once a year) by specialist retailers.
■ Before carrying out cleaning or maintenance work, always dis-
connect the running belt from the power supply (i.e. pull the
plug out of the socket).
■ Please ensure that liquids or perspiration never enter the machine
or the electronics.
■ Repairs on the electrical components in the unit should be car-
ried out by qualified persons only.
■ Always observe the general safety rules and precautions for
working with electrical equipment.
■ Before beginning your program of training, study the instruc-
tions for training carefully.
■ All
electric appliances emit electromagnetic radiation when in opera-
tion. Please do not leave especially radiation-intensive appliances (e.g.
mobile telephones) directly next to the cockpit or the electronic con-
trolsystem as otherwise values displayed might be distorted (e.g. pulse
measurement).
)
■ Prior to training attach the cord of the running belt stop trip to
your clothing.
■ The KETTLER treadmill has an emergency stop mechanism for
your safety. Before starting your workout, fasten the cord of
the safety key to your clothing. If the treadmill has been shut
down by removing the safety key, restart it by reinserting the
key. The treadmill does not restart automatically. Further
instructions concerning the handling of the safety cut-out can be
found in the operating instructions for the training computer.
■ An unmonitored use of the treadmill by other people can be pre-
vented by removing the safety key and keeping it safely hidden.
■ In case of an emergency, hold on tightly to the handrail with
both hands and leave the treadmill by means of the antislipping
surface of the lateral platform. Activate the emergency stop
mechanism (safety cut-out).
■ Any interference with parts of the product that are not described wit-
hin the manual may cause damage, or endanger the person using this
machine. Extensive repairs must only be carried out by KETTLER service
staff or qualified personnel trained by KETTLER.
■ Should you be in any doubt, please consult your dealer
.
All KETTLER products are designed in accordance with the latest safety regulations and undergo a constant process of quality control during manu-
facturing. The knowledge gained in this process is used to constantly improve and develop our products. In order to offer our customers the very
best in product quality, we reserve the right to make technical changes at any time. In spite of this, should you have any cause for complaint, plea-
se contact your KETTLER dealer.
Handling the equipment
■ Standards:
MARATHON SC 07884-000:
The machine complies with the DIN EN 957 - 1/6, class HB. It is the-
refore unsuitable for therapeutic use.
■ Before using the equipment for exercise, check carefully to ensu-
re that it has been correctly assembled and checked.
■ It is not recommended to use or store the apparatus in a damp
room as this may cause it to rust. Please ensure that no part of
the machine comes in contact with liquids (drinks, perspiration
etc.). This may cause corrosion.
■ The running belt is designed for use by adults and children
should not be allowed to play with it. Children at play behave
unpredictably and dangerous situations may occur for which
the manufacturer cannot be held liable. If, in spite of this,
children are allowed to use the equipment, ensure that they
are instructed in its proper use and are supervised accor-
dingly.
■ Always wear suitable shoes (running shoes) when using the
running belt.
■ Before beginning your first training session, familiarize yourself
thoroughly with all the functions and settings of the unit.
■ If the equipment is in regular use, check all its components
thoroughly at appropriate intervals. Pay particular attention to
the tightness of bolts and nuts.
■ In case of a regular use of the running belt, the cold running
belt has to be serviced with silicone öl.
■ Depending on the degree of use and load to which the unit is
subjected, the belt may tend to stretch or slip. Tighten the belt
as described. Adjust the tightness of the belt as described in
section „handling“ (Fig. 4).
■ Observe the movement of the edge of the belt when it is in use.
If it tends to run towards the side, readjust it accordingly (Fig.4).
Running Tip: Running straight on the treadmill is made easier by
focussing on a fixed object in front of you in the room.
Run as if you wanted to approach the object.
