"This European Standard amends and supplements EN 957-1. The requirements of this specific standard take
precedence over those in EN 957-1.
This document is a type C standard as stated in ISO 12100.
The machinery concerned and the extent to which hazards, hazardous situations and hazardous events are
covered are indicated in the scope of this document.

3 Modification to the Scope
Replace the text with the following:
"This European Standard specifies safety requirements and test methods for treadmills in addition to the
general safety requirements and test methods of EN 957-1. It is intended that EN 957-6 is applied together
with EN 957-1.
This part of EN 957 deals with significant hazards, hazardous situations and events relevant to stationary
training equipment used as intended and under the conditions of misuse foreseeable by the manufacturer
(see Clause 4).
EN 957-6 is applicable to power-driven as well as to non-power/manually driven training equipment type
treadmills (hereafter referred to as treadmills) with the classes S, H and I and classes A, B and C regarding
accuracy.
This document is not applicable to treadmills which are manufactured before the date of its publication as a
European Standard."
4 Modifications to Clause 2 "Normative references"
Replace the first paragraph with the following one:
"The following documents, in whole or in part, are normatively referenced in this document and are
indispensable for its application. For dated references, only the edition cited applies. For undated references,
the latest edition of the referenced document (including any amendments) applies."
Add the following references:
"EN ISO 11201, Acoustics — Noise emitted by machinery and equipment — Determination of emission sound
pressure levels at a work station and at other specified positions in an essentially free field over a reflecting
plane with negligible environmental corrections (ISO 11201)
EN ISO 11202, Acoustics — Noise emitted by machinery and equipment — Determination of emission sound
pressure levels at a work station and at other specified positions applying approximate environmental
corrections (ISO 11202)
EN ISO 12100, Safety of machinery — General principles for design — Risk assessment and risk reduction
(ISO 12100)"
