Before You Begin

Thank you for purchasing one of the most technologically advanced electronic

treadmills available: the M9.20 and M9.20s Low Impact Treadmills. These

treadmills feature two of the most sophisticated and beneficial technologies

Precor has ever created: Ground Effects Low Impact System and Integrated

Footplant Technology. Both are true breakthroughs in technology.

Ground Effects allows the treadmill running bed to “float” on specially formulated elastomeric springs, which cushion impact and control lateral motion without diminishing the bed’s lively, responsive feel. Because it’s fully suspended, the bed provides optimum shock absorption anywhere your feet land, not just in the center of the running area.

Integrated Footplant Technology (IFT) is a microprocessor-regulated motor control system. This patented technology collects motor and belt speed data, using it to monitor your workout and enhance your safety and comfort. It replicates the natural walking and running motion of your feet. By allowing slight, natural speed variations throughout your stride, Precor treadmills reduce shock and pounding to your body.

The M9.20 Low Impact Treadmill offers an easy-to-understand electronic console that gives motivating feedback about your workout. Professionally designed exercise options incorporate the latest in exercise science. Three different modes enhance your workout capabilities: Manual, Interval, and Weight Loss.

The M9.20s combines all the benefits of the M9.20 and provides an additional feature: Program mode. Ten factory-programmed courses provide variety to help motivate you during your workout.

The M9.20 and M9.20s Low Impact Treadmills have many unique features which set them apart from conventional treadmills. To maximize your use of the M9.20 and M9.20s treadmills, please study this guide thoroughly.
