Abstract
Exercise apparatus, including treadmills having an endless loop belt driven by an electric motor to exercise the user, has a dual function common stop switch assembly at a singular location on a control console, which assembly has first and second switches each actuatable separately from each other to independently stop the exercise movement member such as a treadbelt. The construction eliminates separately located stop switches.
