Before You Begin

Thank you for purchasing the Precor M9.1 or M9.2s Precision Electronic Treadmill. These treadmills feature one of the most sophisticated and beneficial technologies Precor has ever created: Integrated Footplant Technology.

Integrated Footplant Technology (IFT) is a microprocessor-regulated motor control system. This patented technology collects motor and belt speed data and uses 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 easy-to-understand electronic console provides motivating feedback about your workout which includes: distance covered, elapsed time, current speed, calories burned, and percent of incline. On the M9.1, use the easy-to-reach incline crank handle on the console to change incline. On the M9.2s you can change inclines by pressing the INCLINE key on the electronic console. Inclines from 0 to 10 percent are available.

Two exercise modes come with the M9.1 treadmill: Manual and Interval. Manual Mode lets you control your workload throughout your workout session. In the Interval Mode, the treadmill reminds you to raise and lower the workload during your session in interval training fashion, helping you to achieve aerobic fitness in a shorter period of time.

Three different modes come with the M9.2s, Manual, Interval, (same as the M9.1) and Program. Program mode provides ten factory-programmed courses with predetermined inclines where you choose the speed and distance of your workout. All three modes provide variety to help entice and motivate you during your workout.

CAUTION: This unit weighs over 160 pounds. To avoid injury and to ensure the safety of the unit and yourself, get adequate assistance before dropping the sidewalls of the box and sliding the running bed assembly out of the box. Do not lift the running bed from the box.
