Description / Abstract:
This part of ISO 20957 specifies general safety requirements and
test methods for stationary training equipment unless modified in
the other parts of this International Standard. This part of ISO
20957 also covers environmental aspects.
It also specifies a classification system.
This part of ISO 20957 is applicable to all stationary training
equipment as defined in 3.1. This includes equipment for use in
training areas of organizations such as sport associations,
educational establishments, hotels, sport halls, clubs,
rehabilitation centres and studios (classes S and I) where access
and control is specifically regulated by the owner (person who has
the legal responsibility), equipment for domestic use (class H) and
other types of equipment including motor driven equipment as
defined in 3.1.
The requirements of a specific part of ISO 20957 take priority
over the corresponding requirements of this general standard.
If the intended use of the stationary training equipment is for
children under 14 years other standards are applicable unless such
stationary training equipment is intended for educational purposes
in schools and other pedagogical contexts for children under the
surveillance of a qualified adult instructor.
This part of ISO 20957 does not apply to stationary training
equipment intended for outdoor use without supervision e.g. freely
accessible.
NOTE 1 If a user has special needs (medical rehabilitation,
disability) it is essential that the owner (the person with legal
responsibility) conducts a specific risk assessment to determine
safe use and if necessary to ensure trained staff are available to
supervise the activity.
NOTE 2 In the event that the stationary training equipment is
intended for medical purposes, attention is drawn to the
requirements of Council Directive of 14 June 1993 on the
approximation of the laws of the Member States relating to medical
devices 93/42/EEC in addition to the requirements of this part of
ISO 20957.
NOTE 3 In the event that the stationary training equipment is
intended for children's purposes, attention is drawn to the
requirements of Council Directive of 18 June 2009 on the
approximation of the laws of the Member States relating to safety
of toys 2009/48/EC in addition to the requirements of this part of
ISO 20957.
NOTE 4 In the event that the stationary training equipment is
designed to be accessible to people with disability, attention is
drawn to any relevant national guidelines.
NOTE 6 In the event that the stationary training equipment
contains environmental critical components, attention is drawn to
national regulations, e.g. European Directives.
