tions in this manual. If you do not assemble and use this treadmill according to
the following guidelines, you could void the Precor warranty.
CAUTION: Two persons are recommended to install the lift column,
which is part of the assembly procedure.
Installation Requirements
Follow these installation requirements when installing the treadmill:
•
Set up the M9.3s treadmill on a solid, flat surface. Do not install the
treadmill on deeply padded, plush, or shag carpeting due to possible
damage to the carpet and machine. If the treadmill is placed on a carpeted
surface, place a piece of heavy cardboard, plywood, or other smooth, flat
surface under the unit to protect the carpet and treadmill.
•
Locate the treadmill at least 4 feet from walls and furniture. Be sure to
provide ample space in front of the machine to allow easy access to the
ON/OFF switch. Open space to the sides and back of the machine makes
for a safer mount and dismount and easier belt adjustment.
•
Use a standard 120-volt household outlet. Precor recommends that you
plug the treadmill into an outlet with a dedicated 20 amp circuit breaker.
The treadmill is equipped with a 20 amp circuit breaker to protect the
electrical and electronic components from sustained overloads, and an
integral 3-prong plug grounded to provide for your safety and to protect the
machine.
CAUTION: Do not remove or otherwise bypass the 3-prong plug with an
adapter in order to use a non-grounded outlet.
