WARNING
CONNECTION TO MAINS — This is class 1, type B
electrical safety equipment.
WARNING
DEFIBRILLATOR PRECAUTIONS — Do not come into
contact with patients or unit during defibrillation.
Otherwise, serious injury or death could result.
WARNING
EMERGENCY STOP — The emergency stop switch is a
safety device for use only in emergency situations to stop
the treadmill. The walking belt will stop quickly. Once
stopped and while the switch is depressed the treadmill
walking belt will not lock to allow for removal of foreign
objects.
WARNING
EQUIPMENT MALFUNCTION — Replace only with the
same type and rating of fuse.
WARNING

moving parts.
WARNING
MOVING PARTS — To avoid injury to patient, operate
the treadmill with 6 feet of clearance at the rear (end
opposite the motor).
WARNING
MOVING PARTS — While the emergency stop switch is
depressed or when power is not applied to the treadmill
the walking belt is not locked. The walking belt in this
condition is allowed to move which could cause a person to
lose balance and fall if they are standing on the belt. Note,
the risk of belt movement is increased with higher
treadmill grades or inclines.
WARNING
SHOCK HAZARD — Improper use of this device
presents a shock hazard. Strictly observe the following
warnings. Failure to do so may endanger the lives of the
patient, the user, and bystanders.
WARNING
SITE REQUIREMENTS — Do not route cables in a way
that they may present a stumbling hazard.
WARNING
TREADMILL CHANGES — Rapid changes in treadmill
speed and/or grade during a stress test may result in
injury.
WARNING
TREADMILL CHANGES — DO NOT place feet under
the treadmill during operation or while decreasing the
treadmill grade to avoid injury.
Cautions
CAUTION
INJURY — Do not use the treadmill without proper
footwear as injury to feet may result.
CAUTION
POWER REQUIREMENTS — Before connecting the
device to the power line, check that the voltage and
frequency ratings of the power line are the same as those
indicated on the unit's label. If this is not the case, do not
connect the system to the power line until you adjust the
unit to match the power source.

F Miscellaneous Characteristic
Intended Use
The T-2100 Treadmill is intended for use with any of the several GE
Medical Systems Information Technologies exercise testing systems or
the MTC-1 (manual treadmill controller), for administering a controlled
exercise load during a diagnostic stress test. Standard features include
the emergency stop switch, a full handrail set, and a long, 60-inch
walking surface.
Before moving the treadmill after it has been in operation, use the
controlling equipment to set the grade to approximately 7%. Then
remove power and disconnect all cables to the treadmill before moving
the unit.
Follow the steps below to move the treadmill. We recommend that two
people work together since the treadmill may be too heavy for some
individuals to lift and lower safely.
NOTE
We recommend the treadmill not be placed on carpet or carpet tile
floors as a final location, as continual movement of the wheels may
eventually damage the carpet and possibly the treadmill.
WARNING
INJURY OR DAMAGE — The treadmill is too heavy to
lift, lower or move safely by one person. Serious bodily
injury or damage to the treadmill may result.
1. Lift the end of the bed assembly to about knee height, keeping knees
bent and backs straight as you lift.
3. When you have maneuvered the treadmill into its new location,
gently lower the end of the bed assembly to the floor.

Operating Instructions
Electrical Safety Tests
The electrical safety of this installation is the responsibility of the
customer, not GE Medical Systems Information Technologies. In
hospitals, contact your in-house biomedical technician, electrician, or
technically qualified personnel. Outside of hospitals, contact your
hospital affiliation for these services. Otherwise, contact GE Medical
Before using the treadmill, have qualified personnel perform the tests
listed below.
Calibrating Treadmill
It is recommended that the treadmill be calibrated each time it is moved.
Refer to the steps below to activate the T-2100 Treadmill self-calibration
feature:
WARNING
POWER CABLES — Route the AC Power cable away
from moving parts.
WARNING
During calibration, the treadmill will move and reach
maximum elevation. Injury may result.
4. A push button is located at the rear panel. Hold down the push
button and power cycle the unit. Hold the push button in for at least
4 seconds after power up for calibration to occur.
The software calibrates the speed and grade from the minimum
points to the maximum points.
Operating Controls
The treadmill has two operating controls, the power switch and the
emergency stop switch. The power switch is located on the rear panel,
and the emergency stop switch is on the front handrail.
Power Switch
The power switch controls the AC power to the treadmill. The On
position (I) applies power. The Off position (0) removes power.
With the belt moving at a relatively high speed, press the emergency
stop switch. The treadmill belt will stop promptly but the belt will
not lock, allowing for removal of foreign objects. To release the
switch, turn the button 1/4-inch turn in either direction.
Use the controlling equipment to terminate the exercise session and
turn off the treadmill.
