Before You Begin
Congratulations! You now own one of the newest, most technologically ad-
vanced electronic treadmills available. The M9.3s Low-Impact Treadmill
belongs to Precor’s exciting “M” series of exercise equipment — a superior
combination of high technology and ergonomics.
The M9.3s treadmill lets you exercise safely in the convenience of your own
home. Turn on the M9.3s treadmill, specify your weight and belt speed, and
begin your workout. As you walk or run, the unique running bed protects
vulnerable knees and ankles by absorbing much of the impact of each step.
Specially designed cylinders absorb the impact while providing a smooth,
consistent running surface.
For quick, motivating information about your progress, glance at the easy-to-
read control panel. This console provides information about your elapsed time,
speed, distance covered, degree of incline, and total calories burned. If you
should encounter a problem during your workout, you can stop the treadmill by
pulling on the cord attached to the magnetic safety key.
Built with the highest quality materials, the M9.3s Low-Impact Treadmill pro-
vides the motivation and challenge you need to help you achieve your fitness
goals for years to come.
