Outside Cleaning
Clean the outside surfaces with a wetted soft cloth. Do not use any strong or
corrosive cleaning solution, or one containing solvents, (e.g., alcohol, stain
remover, etc).
Care should be taken to wipe out sweat drops after training (sweat attacks paint
and plastic parts).
Damage caused by sweat is not covered by the warranty.
You can clean the coating of the handlebars with a mild detergent, applying
appropriate caution.
Noises
ergo_bike medical8 ergometers are equipped with quality ball bearings and
silent belt drive. Still, it is unavoidable that you hear a few remaining noises in
the range of up to LpA 52 dB (decibel).
Fastening-Screws
All the fastening screws must be tightened up from time to time. We recommend
tightening them at least after the first 50 km and then once every 500 km.
About the V-belt
The driving surfaces of the drive pulley and the V-belt pulley are covered with
a rubber layer by the manufacturer.
This favours the development of an optimal fitting of the V-belt into the
grooves of the driving pulley during the first 500 to 1000 kilometres.
During the first 500 to 1000 km the belt will loose some excess rubber, which
will appear in the form of black powder deposits. You can remove these deposits
using a small brush or a vacuum cleaner.
V-belts are wearable parts and as such are not covered by the warranty.
Important Notes
Mains Voltage 230 Volt
Because of new regulations the mains voltage must be specified in the form of
a definite value. Consequently, the mains voltage values indicated with a tolerance
from 220 to 240 Volt will be restricted for all the ergometers of daum electronic
to the single mains voltage value of 230 Volt.
Mains Power Supply
In order to avoid all hazards any damages to the connection cable to the mains
power supply or to the On/Off switch must immediately be repaired, or replaced
with new parts, by the manufacturer, the customer service department of the
manufacturer, or similarly qualified service personnel.
Trainings Hints
A comfortable and relaxed sitting posture is of great significance for the efficiency
and the benefit of the training with the ergo_bike medical8 as well as an
appropriate shoe (sport shoe). The handlebars, saddle height, and saddle
inclination should be adjusted to the personal requirements of the test person.
The back should be straight and the legs should still be slightly bent at the lower
pedal position (Fig.
A
) as for normal biking, as opposed to the racing posture
(Fig.
B
).
Environmental Conditions
Ergometers are not suited for operation in areas of medical rooms with explosion
hazards, or in a combustive atmosphere. The devices may not be operated in
the near vicinity of e.g. X-ray devices, motors or transformers with big electrical
connections because electric or magnetic fields may disturb or deactivate some
measurements. The vicinity of high voltage cables is also to be avoided.
Unless otherwise specified in the accompanying documentation and delivery
documents, all the devices are designed to be used in the usual indoor conditions
under the climate conditions considered normal (DIN IEC 601-1):
Temperature range: -10°C .....+40°C
Relative air humidity: 30 ...75%
Air pressure: 700... 1060 mBar
The devices must therefore be protected against particular humidity effects.
Ventilation opening must not be covered in order to avoid restricting the circulation
of air. Storage temperature range: -20°C .....+50°C
All the devices may be stored for a maximum period of 6 to 9 months without
being connected to an electrical power supply. Beyond this period the rechargeable
batteries may loose their charge as a consequence of the lack of electrical power
supply. If the storage period of the device exceeds this period, it will eventually
need to be reprogrammed.
Dispose of the packaging material safely. Keep foil sheets and plastic bags away
from children.
- Risk of suffocation
Used Symbols
The symbols used on the ergo_bike medical8 comply with the IEC 417 and IEC
878 standards (table D1/D2).

Compliance to Standards
The ergo_bike-medical8 may not be used if the certifications/approval and the
defined safety standards (according to the table of the technical specifications)
do not comply with the local prescriptions. The local country specifications must
be compared with those of the device before using the device and the device
may only be used if they comply with each other.
Domains of application
Ergometer bikes, with a declaration of conformity related to the medical domain,
are suited for medical applications.
You may use these models in the following domains:
- Endurance training
- Performance (capacity) tests
- Biking ergometry
- Development training for rehabilitation
