Hello.
About three months ago my treadmill started blowing fuses as soon as it was switched on.
I replaced a few components and got going. The link to the thread is at end.
A few days a go the treadmill was being used by my wife at a steady walking pace and suddenly
it went full speed. The top speed is about 12 mph. If you have seen videos of people getting
thrown across the room by treadmills then you know how dangerous falling on a treadmill can be.
The only reason she didn't fall off is because she had her both hands on the hand rails.
What I would like to ask is do treadmills have some safety feature to prevent this happening?
If they don't then how are they allowed to sell something that could injure or even kill. Thanks.
