you each time you select it and press the “start” button.

The TR800 and TR1200i comes with two types of heart rate control programs- Constant and Interval and
within each of these you can select either a “Speed” control option or an “Incline” control option.

There is a 3 minute warm up for this program prior to the treadmill taking control of the speed or incline.

Note: To use the Heart Rate Control programs the treadmill needs to receive your heart rate throughout the
entire workout either through using the grip pulse pads or a chest strap heart rate transmitter.

Constant Heart Rate Control: The “Constant” program lets you select a single heart rate that you
want to maintain throughout your workout and the treadmill will maintain this heart rate for you by either
adjusting the speed or the incline. After selecting the Constant Heart Rate program the next selection
option will be Incline Mode or Speed Mode. Select which mode you prefer and the treadmill will adjust the
speed or incline every 10 seconds to keep you at your selected heart rate level. For instance, if you select
the incline mode there will be a 3 minute warm up and then the incline will start to adjust each 10 seconds
obtain and maintain your target heart rate. You choose the speed that you want the belt to run and the
treadmill will control the incline.

Typically for Weight Loss set the target heart rate at 65% of your predicted maximum heart rate and for

Cardio Training set the target at 80% of your predicted maximum.

Interval Heart Rate Control: The “Interval” program is designed to help you increase your aerobic
endurance and improve heart rate recovery. This program lets you select a LOW or recovery target heart
rate and a HIGH target. After a 3 minute warm-up the console will adjust the speed or incline, which ever
you select, every 10 seconds to maintain your LOW target to 2 minutes. Then the console will adjust the
speed or incline to raise your heart rate to the HIGH target that you selected and once again keep it at this
level for 2 minutes and then repeat the process until the end of the workout. It is recommended that you

Innovative Features (TR1200i only)

Intelli-Guard - This treadmill is equipped with the Intelli-Guard safety feature. This feature senses when you

stop walking on the treadmill and for safety purposes it automatically pauses the treadmill to avoid
accidental falls and resulting injury. The Intelli-Guard feature is triggered when the treadmill senses that you
are no longer walking or running on the treadmill.

Caution:The Intelli-Guard feature will automatically be disengaged when the treadmill is

operated at speeds under 1.5 mph or at an incline level over 5.

Caution: At 20 seconds the console will beep once per second for 5 seconds

and then automatically pause the treadmill. These beeps are a notice that the

treadmill belt is about to stop. If for some reason you are still on the treadmill

when this occurs move your feet to the side rails and prepare for the belt to stop.

The Intelli-Guard feature does not replace the use of your saftey key or using proper

precaution in stopping the treadmill when it is not in use.

Intelli-Step – The treadmill comes with the Intelli-Step counting feature. This feature senses the resistance

feature including your walking style, your weight, and your usage characteristics. For example, the Intelli-

may also be the case at lower speeds. In summary, the Intelli-Step is a great feature for users interested in
maintaining a step count walking or running program, but it is dependant on many variables for accuracy
and the accuracy of the count will depend on your individual characteristics as well as variables related to
the treadmills usage.

UBS Port: The TR1200i includes a USB port that works

Belt Lubrication

Use only 100% Silicone and avoid using aerosol silicone sprays which include additives and petroleum

The running belt should be lubricated every 3 months (regardless of use) or every 50

over time and the belt will dry out.

Note: Even though the running belt is lubed from the manufacturer, you should lubricate

the unit was manufactured and when it was purchased.

The Silicone icon will turn on in the display every 100 hours of use and is a reminder that it is time to
lubricate the running belt. As indicated above it is best to lubricate the running belt every 50 hours of use.

Apply the silicone to the underside of the treadmill belt. Do not apply to the walking surface.
This may be accomplished by standing up the treadmill and applying the silicone to the inside portion

of the belt. Spray the silicone down and across the belt. Rotate the belt 1/2 of the circumference

and repeat. About one ounce of Silicone should be used for each application.

Note: When lubricating the belt, make sure the treadmill is located on a surface that can be easily

Cleaning and Maintenance

It is recommended to wipe the treadmill down after each use to keep the treadmill clean and dry. A
mild detergent may be used at times to help remove all dirt and salt from the belt, painted parts and
the display.

The Maintenance icon shows up in the display every 150 hours of use. This is a reminder to clean the
unit really well. This cleaning would include removing the motor cover and cleaning around the
motor and electronics. It is recommended to clean the motor compartment if the treadmill is in an

motor compartment. It is a good idea at this time to check and tighten all assembly hardware as well.

Warning: Unplug the Power Cord Before Removing the Motor Cover.

TR800 / TR1200i

Belt Tensioning

If the belt begins to slip during use, it will need to be tensioned. Your treadmill is equipped with
tension bolts that are accessible from the back of the treadmill. Before tensioning the belt,
start the treadmill and set the speed to 3 MPH. Using a 6 mm Allen Wrench, included in your
hardware bag, turn the right and left tension bolts 1/2 turn clockwise.

After you adjust each side 1/2 turn, test to see if the slipping is eliminated. If the belt slips repeat

this step and test again.

If you turn one side more than the other, the belt will start to drift to the side of the

treadmill and will need to be aligned. DO NOT tighten more than 2 full turns on each side.
If slippage still occurs, contact LifeSpan Customer Service.

Note: Over tensioning the belt can cause
unnecessary friction and wear and tear
on the belt, motor and electronics.

2. Stand at the rear of the treadmill to determine which direction the belt is drifting.

3. If the belt drifts to the left, turn the left adjustment bolt one-quarter turn clockwise and
the right adjustment bolt one-quarter turn counter-clockwise. (See FIG.C)

4. If the belt drifts to the right, turn the left adjustment bolt one-quarter turn counter-clock
wise and the right adjustment bolt one-quarter turn clockwise. (See FIG.D)

5. Observe the tracking of the belt for about two minutes. Repeat steps 3, 4 and 5 as needed.

Moving and Storage

The treadmill comes with a folding feature that reduces the amount of storage space required
when your treadmill is not in use and makes the treadmill easier to move.

Folding the Treadmill

2. Make sure that nothing is on or near your treadmill which might spill, be knocked over or

prevent the treadmill from completely folding.

3. (a.) Place both hands under the support bar that is located directly under the back of the
running belt on your treadmill to make sure that you have a solid lifting point.

(b.) Lift the treadmill all of the way forward and make sure that the hydraulic shock is

properly locked in place.

Caution: When lifting, use proper safety precautions and lifting techniques.
Bend your knees and elbows, keep your back straight and pull up with both arms.

(c.) Ensure that the locking mechanism is secure by gently pulling back on the

treadmill and make sure that it doesn’t move. When doing this, be careful to be securely
positioned in case the treadmill lock has not engaged.

Caution:
tDo not fold the treadmill by lifting on the running belt or rear roller. These parts do not

3. Position yourself behind the treadmill. Slightly push the treadmill forward towards the
display and with your left foot lightly push the top portion of the hydraulic shock forward till
the locking tube frees and the treadmill can be pulled back away from the console.

4. The hydraulic lift is set up to drop softly without assistance. It is not a bad idea to hold
onto the treadmill until it is about 2/3 of the way down. Make sure that you use proper
lifting technique, bending your knees and keeping your back straight.
