Life Fitness Model 97Te, 95Te, 97Ti, 95Ti and 93T Arctic Silver Treadmills
Theory of Operation
The Treadmill is an electromechanical device that operates on A/C Voltage System and is controlled
through the electronics in the Display Console. The key components that make up the Treadmill are the
Unit Frame, Electric Motor and Motor Controller, Belt and Deck, Pulleys and Rollers, and the Display
Console.
Initially the Line Filter receives the voltage. It is to the Motor Controller and other various electrical and
electronic components that activate all the mechanical devices. The operator ultimately controls all
electromechanical devices through the Console Display and with a touch of a finger can make settings
and adjustments to Speed, Incline, and Custom Workout Programs.
The Unit Frame is critical not only to support the operator but also to support the electromechanical
devices and the unit’s overall appearance. Although the frame is a non-maintenance item, its design and
structure are essential to providing years of safe and reliable service.
The most critical parts on the Treadmill are the Striding Belt and Deck. Regardless of all other
components, the success of a good Treadmill is its Striding Belt and Deck. The Deck is made up of a
special particleboard, which allows for flexibility and long wear. The Waxless Striding Belt allows for self
lubrication to ensure long life to both belt and deck. Under the Deck are the Lifesprings™, which are
designed to support and absorb the shock load.
The Striding Belt is designed to endure constant stress loads. It is mounted directly over the Front and
Rear Rollers. The Main Drive Motor has a Pulley on the end of its shaft, which is connected by a Drive
Belt to the Front Roller Pulley. The Rear Roller is freewheeling. The Striding Belt tension is adjustable by
means of Adjusting Bolts, which are located at the ends of the Rear Roller. When turned, they are used
to adjust belt tension and belt centering. In order to increase belt and deck life, it is important to properly
keep all areas of the machine clean.
The Display Console is the brain center of the Treadmill. It is here where all electromechanical
operations are controlled for specific program operations. Depending on the Display Console, various
selections and settings can be easily accomplished either through a Numeric Keypad or Up/Down
Arrows. The Display Console allows the operator to selectively choose the program and input pertinent
statistical information such as Weight, Age, Language, etc.
The Treadmill is by far one of the most popular pieces of all cardiovascular exercise equipment. With
proper routine preventative maintenance and care, it will provide a lifetime of healthy cardiovascular
exercise.

If Line Voltage is present, then continue on to Step 5. 4 Circuit Breaker Turn the Unit Power Switch ON, and test
If the Line Voltage is not present, then reset the
Circuit Breaker, or if necessary replace it.
If Line Voltage is present and NO LEDs are lit then
check to see if the Motor Cable is unplugged or
damaged, and replace as necessary.
If Line Voltage is present and NO LEDs are lit, then
check to see if the Motor is overheated or is
damaged. With the Motor unplugged, OHM out the
two blue wires using a Multi-Meter. If there is NO
Continuity, then replace Motor. If NO Line Voltage
present, then check Cables between the Power Box
and Motor Controller, and replace as necessary.
Check for damaged cables and replace. If the cables
are not damaged, replace the Auto Transformer.
Check fuses 1, 2, and 3, with the Multi-Meter set on
resistance. If the fuses are good, then test the power
cable from the Power Box to the Wax/Lift Board for
120 Volts. If fuses are open, then replace the Wax/Lift
PCB.
Inspect the Wax/Lift Board for any signs of damage.
If damaged, replace the Wax/Lift Board.
Inspect cabling from the Wax/Lift Board to: Frame
Tag, Motor Controller, Negative Switch, and Lift Motor
Home Switch. If cabling is damaged, then replace as
necessary.
resistance is checked at the: Black to Red wire, which
should read about 30 OHMS; the White to Red wire
should read 15 OHMS, and the White to Black wire
should also read 15 OHMS. If any of these wires
register ‘0 OHMS’, then replace the Lift Motor.

INITIAL SETTING OF THE REAL TIME CLOCK
As part of the initial installation of the treadmill, the real time clock may be configured to the local time. Initially the
real time clock is set to Greenwich meantime (GMT) which is the mean solar time for the meridian at Greenwich,
England, used as a basis for calculating time throughout most of the world. Upon powering up the unit the following
message will be displayed:
IF YES PRESS ENTER
IF NO PRESS CLEAR
If the user wants to set the real time clock to the local time, the user must press the ‘ENTER’ key.
The user will be asked to set the display mode. The two display modes are 12-hour mode with AM/PM or 24 hour
mode with no am/pm. displayed. The message will be:
By pressing any of the arrow keys, the user toggles between the two modes. Once the mode is set, press the
‘ENTER’ key to continue.
After the display mode is set the user will now be asked to set the local time. The following message will appear:
“CLOCK SET TO GMT”,
“USE ARROW KEYS TO ”
“CHANGE SYSTEM CLOCK”,
“TIME KEYS - HOURS”,
“INCLINE KEYS-MINUTES”,
“SPEED KEYS – SECONDS”
By pressing the specific arrow key, the user can set the real time clock to the local time.
After setting the local time, press the ‘CLEAR’ key to exit the real time clock setting mode.
The message “UPDATING CLOCK” will appear in the message center. The unit will then continue with the normal
powering up sequence.
If the user does not want to set up the real time clock at this time, a ‘CLEAR’ key can be pressed to clear the initial
message. The unit will continue with it’s normal powering up sequence. The unit will ask a total of 5 times upon
powering up if the real time clock wants to be set. After the 5th time the message will no longer appear. Refer to
clock configuration to change the clock settings.

This test allows the user to check the belt and deck condition. This test acts as a wattage meter. It will give the user
the percentage of power, wattage, bus voltage, and temperature readings.
The following messages will scroll:
The initial information displayed will be:
Where XXX will indicate real values.
PERCENT is the percentage of available power. It will range from 0 to 100%.
WATT is the wattage measured by the motor controller to move the belt ranging from 340 to 1200 watts.
By pressing the ‘COOL-DOWN’ key, the display will toggle to the information displayed below.
Where XXX will indicate real values.
VOLTAGE is the bus voltage of the motor controller. It is not the input line voltage.
TEMP is the temperature measure of the motor controller heat sink in Celsius.
The display will lock on the current information if the ‘PAUSE’ key is pressed.
The speed system and incline systems can be activated in this test. However, the display will only show the target
speed or incline for two seconds while the speed/incline keys are being pressed. It will then return to showing the
belt/deck information.
To test if the belt and deck need replacement: Using the ‘SPEED’ Up Arrow Key, walk on the unit at 3.5 mph for
a minimum of 1 minute. Then run on the unit at 7.0 mph for a minimum of 1 minute. If the watts are higher than
1100, replace the belt and either flip or replace the deck.
