Horizon Fitness features and benefits
    QUIETdrive™ Motor System
continuous duty motor   Continuous Duty Motor
We use high quality, commercial grade Continuous Duty Motors in our treadmills. These motors provide continuous power at any desired speed. They run at a lower RPM than most, resulting in less wear and tear to ensure reliability and long term quality.

Powerful
It can efficiently carry your weight at low or high speeds for long periods of time, benefiting both walkers and runners.

Quiet
Continuous duty is the ONLY way to get a quiet, enjoyable workout because it does not need to work hard to carry the weight of the user.

Durable
A good quality motor, made from commercial grade parts as standard. Accompanied with a lifetime warranty for peace of mind.
     
    Motor Controller
As the brain power of the treadmill, the motor controller communicates with the Pulse With Modulation (PWM) on how much power to send to the belt to keep the treadmill running at the required speed. For example, more power will be required to keep the belt running at 5mph with an 18 stone user than an 8 stone user.

Responsive
Your treadmill will instantly react to any input changes you make.

Smooth
PWM is the only way to ensure a smooth workout, free from typical lags and power surges.
     
Elevation Motor technology from Horizon Fitness   Elevation Motor
The elevation motor is a high quality 500lb thrust motor, powerful enough to carry the user’s weight with ease even at the highest elevation point. The motor uses direct thrusting power to lift the deck and has a very reliable leverage system ensuring smooth and controlled elevation.

Powerful
The motor will respond to the elevation request no matter how often it is used during a workout.

Quiet
The elevation motor operates efficiently without being heard.
     
  Digital Drive Control System
The Digital Drive Control System is a continuous duty motor that runs at a lower RPM for a smooth, quieter workout. It works with a High Speed Digital Processor that responds to each footstep to ensure a smooth workout. A separate Elevation Motor delivers 500lbs of direct lifting power quietly and efficiently.

    The COMFORTzone™
The Comfort Zone   Belt and Deck
The running area of the treadmill should be large enough to make the user feel comfortable even at top speeds; some of our treadmills are as spacious as 60"x 20". All Horizon treadmills use up to 1” thick decks to provide maximum comfort and support.

Safe and comfortable
Durable running belts ensure a comfortable workout. Some models feature the “Ortho” belt (orthopaedic belt).

Low maintenance
All decks are pre-waxed to minimise maintenance.
     
  Rollers
Our tapered rollers have been specially balanced to ensure control of the running belt and a centralised guiding system reduces the stress and strain on the drive system.

Efficient
Reducing the strain on the motor allows the treadmill to operate quietly and smoothly.

Low maintenance
Tapered rollers minimise the amount of adjustments you need to make to keep the belt aligned.

Durable
Tapered roller system reduces the friction on the belt and stress on the motor which will add life to your treadmill.
     
  Cushioning
Elastomers of varying softness/ thickness are strategically positioned between the deck and the steel frame to reduce impact in the running area. This also ensures the treadmill remains stable during any workout. These varying densities of support cradle the lower limb joints whilst running.

Comfortable, supportive, joint friendly
Our Variable Cushioning System (VCS) provides extra support where it is needed most.
     
AIRcell   AIRcell™
Exclusive to Horizon, the AIRcell is positioned at the optimum point where the foot strikes the deck. It reduces impact stress that can cause knee, ankle and foot problems, giving you the confidence to exercise safely.
     
Feather Light Folding System   FeatherLIGHT™ Folding System
Horizon Fitness treadmills fold using an assisted hydraulic folding system making storage simple, quick and easy. Assisted hydraulic folding system to easily and safely fold treadmill away after use; taking up half the space than when in the ready position.
   
  ControlledDrop™ Folding System
This is an additional feature where the deck will unfold safely and smoothly to the ground after initial guidance, with its superior hydraulic system.
     
Integrated Toggle Switch   Integrated Toggle Switch
Controls are integrated into the side handle bars to enable the user to change speed and elevation without having to reach forward to make the changes from the console.
 
    QUIETdrive™
The flywheel works similarly to a treadmill motor and is the key factor to a smooth workout; the heavier the flywheel the smoother and quieter the operation. All ellipticals and bikes offer a varying degree of resistance which is typically controlled by a magnetic brake system. The drive belt is the link between the flywheel and the pedals to enhance the smooth elliptical or pedal motion.

Smooth
Large, quality flywheels provide the best, smooth consistent performance.

Quiet
Commercial grade drive belt works with the flywheel to offer ultra-quiet operation.

Durable
Heavy duty drive system is designed to reduce internal friction and withstand the most rigorous use.
     
  The COMFORTzone™ (Ellipticals only)
An elliptical allows the pedal to complete a very smooth orbital motion - an ellipse, hence the name. Stride length helps to determine how smooth this movement will feel. The pedal design is a key contact point; it should comfortably fit your foot and feel secure. On some models the pedals pivot during movement which makes exercise smoother and maintains a natural healthy stride.
