The horse must be cross-tied to its halter to be restrained from moving
forward. The cross-ties should keep the horse close to the tail strap to
minimize the possibility of a horse kicking over the strap and causing injury.
In the rare case that the horse was to stumble and fall, a stumble sensor
photo-beam will stop the treadmill immediately. The sensor must be
blocked, i.e. the horse standing on the treadmill, breaking the photo beam,
in order for the treadmill to be started and the beam must remain blocked at
all times during any cycle or the treadmill belt will stop.
3.0 Trainer Installation & Setup
3.1 Mechanical Installation
The
TITAN Trainer
is delivered fully assembled. It must be placed on a level concrete floor or pad.
Once the treadmill is in position, leveling feet on the frame at the entry end must be adjusted so that both
leveling feet and the front incline rollers are in firm contact with the floor. After adjusting the feet, the
locking nuts must be tightened to lock the adjustment screws in the position. Position the manure
collection pan under the belt at the entry end and lower the entry and exit ramps. If both ramp wheels do
not contact the floor, the ramp hinge attachment bolts can be loosened and the ramp adjusted.
3.2 Electrical Installation
The
TITAN Treadmill
comes complete with all electrical wiring intact. Provisions for power supply
connection have been included complete with a 3 meter cord and plug attachment (pre-installed) rated for
50amps. Also supplied loose is the 50amp rated mating receptacle. This receptacle must be installed by
the user. Please refer to local electrical codes to determine receptacle installation method and location
requirements. A 50amp, 208-230VAC, 1Ø power supply circuit is required. This circuit must be protected
at the source with short circuit and thermal protection as per local authority electrical requirements.
