1.2 S

ETUP

Read the Operation Manual before setting up the Life Fitness treadmill. Place the treadmill
where it will be used before beginning the setup procedure.

ELECTRICAL POWER REQUIREMENTS

The Life Fitness treadmill is intended for use on a normal 120-Volt electrical circuit in the United
States and Canada. The following table provides the current rating for this product based on
supply voltage. Make sure that this treadmill model supports the proper line voltage for the
installation location before plugging it into the outlet.

G

ROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS

This Life Fitness product must be properly grounded. If the unit malfunctions or breaks down,
proper grounding provides a path of least resistance for the electric current, which reduces the
risk of shock to anyone touching or using the equipment. Each unit is equipped with an electrical
cord, which includes an equipment grounding conductor and a grounding plug. The plug must
be inserted into an outlet that has been properly installed and grounded in accordance with all
local codes and ordinances.

A temporary adapter MUST NOT BE USED to connect this plug to a two-pole receptacle in
North America. If a properly grounded, 20-amp outlet is not available, one must be installed by a
qualified electrician. Models drawing 16 amps or more must be installed on a dedicated line.

IL EST ABSOLUMENT INTERDIT d'employer un adaptateur temporaire pour brancher cette
fiche sur une prise à deux pôles en Amérique du Nord. Si aucune prise de 20 A correctement
mise à la terre n'est disponible, il convient d'en faire installer une par un électricien qualifié. Les
modèles utilisant 16 Aou plus doivent être installés sur des lignes qui leur sont réservées.

DANGER: A risk of electrical shock may result from improper connection of the equipment­grounding conductor. Check with a qualified electrician if in doubt as to proper grounding tech­nique. DO NOT modify the plug provided with the product. If it will not fit an electrical outlet,
have a proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician.

DANGER: Un branchement incorrect du conducteur de mise à la terre peut entraîner des risques de
décharge électrique. Consultez un électricien si des doutes subsistent quant à la technique de mise à
la terre. NE MODIFIEZ PAS la fiche fournie avec l'appareil. Si elle ne s'adapte pas à une prise, faites
en installer une correcte par un électricien qualifié.

EMOVING AND REPLACING THE WAX BAG

The wax lubrication system is a standard feature on the 91Ti model and international 90T model.
Treadmills with waxers are equipped to monitor wax levels automatically. On the 91Ti, when the the
wax bag is six-percent full, the console displays “NOTIFY MAINTENANCE -- WAXER NEEDS
REFILL”. When the bag is empty, the treadmill shuts down, and the console displays, “NOTIFY
MAINTENANCE -- WAXER EMPTY”. On a waxer-equipped 90T model, when the wax bag is six­percent full, the DATADISPLAY windows show “Err9”. When the wax bag is empty, the treadmill
shuts down and the DATADISPLAY windows show, “Err10”.

The wax bag is installed underneath the motor pan of the treadmill. To make replacing the bag
as easy as possible, use the UP LEVEL ARROW key to elevate the treadmill to the 15 percent
incline.

Before starting the procedure, turn the power off (“I”) at the ON/OFF switch, and unplug the unit
from the electrical outlet.

Open the wax tray: Pull out the three push rivets (A) that fasten the
front edge of the wax tray (B) to the bottom of the motor pan (C). If
necessary, use a flat-edge screw driver to pry off the rivets. The rivets
are reusable. Set down the front edge of the wax tray with the wax
bag on top of it.

Note: The rear edge of the wax tray is attached to the motor pan
during factory assembly.

Detach the old wax bag: Remove the motor cover. Engage (1) the wax bag hose clamp (D) to pre­vent any wax residue from seeping out of the bag. Then, gently work the wax bag hose off of the
barbed nozzle on the wax pump inlet hose located inside the motor compartment. Open (2) the hose
clamp, and slide it off. Discard the old wax bag.

Attach the hose clamp to the new wax bag: Slide the hose clamp (D) over the end of the new
wax bag outlet hose (E). Position the clamp approximately three inches from the end of the hose
and clamp it (1) onto the wax bag hose to prevent spillage.

Position the wax bag under the frame: Place the wax bag (F) on top of the wax tray, so that
the wax bag is directly underneath the treadmill motor pan (C), the wax bag flange is facing out
toward the front of the treadmill, and the wax bag hose is near the hole (G) at the bottom of the
motor pan through which the hose will be fed in the next step.

Connect the wax bag hose to the pump inlet hose: Cut off the end of the wax bag hose (E)
one half-inch from the end. Feed the hose through the hole (G) at the bottom of the motor pan,
and slide it onto the barbed nozzle on the wax pump inlet hose located inside the motor compart­ment. Be sure to fully seat the wax bag hose onto the inlet hose. Release (2) the hose clamp (D).

CAUTION: Failure to release the hose clamp greatly shortens belt life.

MISE EN GARDE : la bride de serrage doit être relâchée sous peine de réduire de
façon importante la durée de vie du tapis.

Close the wax tray: Align two holes of the wax bag flange with the two holes along the front edge

of the wax tray (B) and the two holes at the bottom of the treadmill motor pan (C). Attach the wax
tray and wax bag (F) to the motor pan with two of the push-rivets (A), simply by pushing each rivet
upward through both sets of aligned holes. Once each rivet is pushed through the holes as far as
possible, its front tip flares open to keep the tray and wax bag fastened to the motor pan. Push a
third push-rivet through the remaining aligned holes in the wax tray and the bottom of the treadmill
motor pan.

Inform the system that a new wax bag has been installed: Access the Manager’s Configuration.
For details, see Section 5.1, titled Entering and Using the Manager’s Configuration. On the 91Ti
model, scroll to the Refill Waxer System configuration setting. Press ENTER. The MESSAGE
CENTER displays “REPAIR LOGGED”. Press the CLEAR key three times to exit the Manager’s
Configuration. On the 90T model, select the Waxer System Installed configuration setting. Change
the setting to “no” by pressing the SPEED DOWN ARROW key once. Then, change the setting to
“yes” by pressing the SPEED UP ARROW key once. Press the STOP key once to exit the
Manager’s Configuration.

HOW TO POSITION AND STABILIZE THE LIFE FITNESS®TREADMILL

Following all safety instructions in Section 1.1, move the
treadmill to the location in which it will be used. See Section
7, titled Specifications, for the dimensions of the footprint.
Allow a distance of eight inches, or 21 centimeters, between
the treadmill and other units on either side. Allow a distance
of six feet, or two meters, from the rear of the treadmill to
any object or surface.

After placing the unit where it will be used, check its stability. If there is even a slight rocking motion
or the unit is not stable, determine which stabilizing leg is not resting on the floor. To adjust, loosen
the JAM NUT (A), and turn the STABILIZING LEG (B) until the rocking motion ceases, and both sta­bilizing legs rest firmly on the floor. Retighten the JAM NUT.

NOTE: It is extremely important that the stabilizing leg be correctly adjusted for proper opera­tion. An unbalanced unit may cause striding belt misalignment.

11

P

OWER SWITCH

Located on the front panel at the base of the treadmill, the ON/OFF switch has two positions:
"I" (one) for ON and "0" (zero) for OFF.

IMMOBILIZING THE

TREADMILL

An immobilized treadmill cannot be operated. The main motor, incline, and waxer are all disabled.
To immobilize the 91Ti treadmill, set the display to read “SELECT WORKOUT”. Press the STOP
key twice to do so if this message does not appear in the MESSAGE CENTER. Then, hold down
the SPEED DOWN key, and press the STOP key. The console for the immobilized treadmill dis­plays “IMMOBILIZED” in the MESSAGE CENTER. To restore operation, repeat the step of holding
down the SPEED DOWN key and pressing the STOP key. To immobilize the 90T model treadmill,
hold down the TIME DOWN key, and press the STOP key. The console for the immobilized tread­mill shows three horizontal lines in each of the data display windows. To restore normal operation,
repeat the step of holding down the TIME DOWN key and pressing the STOP key.
