3、INTRODUCTIONThe goal of this test method is to provide reliable and repeatable methods for the evaluation ofuniversally designed fitness equipment.The equipment user must recognize, however, that the standard alone will not necessarily preventinjuries. Like other physical activities, exercise involv

4、ing fitness equipment involves the risk of injury,particularly if the equipment is used improperly or not properly maintained. In addition, users withphysical limitations should seek medical advice and instruction from the fitness facility prior to usingthis equipment. Certain physical conditions or

5、 limitations may preclude some persons from using thisequipment as intended by the manufacturer, and using this equipment may increase the risk of injury.1. Scope1.1 This test method2specifies procedures and equipmentused for testing and evaluating the accessibility of fitnessequipment for complianc
