getting fi t
Cardiovascular endurance is the most important component of physical fitness. There are two
types of cardiovascular training, these are interval training and steady state training.
Interval training varies the amount of effort required to workout. The Weight Management, Heart
Health and Cardio programs all modify the speed during the program and the Uphill Walking,
Rolling Hills, Uphill Hike, Uphill Intervals and Pyramid Climb modify the incline to vary the effort
required throughout the workout.
Steady state training keeps the workload constant. Your Manual program on the treadmill
gives you this Steady State workout and allows you to manually control the speed and incline
of your treadmill. If you have a requirement to maintain a steady heart rate during your
workout, the manual program is the best selection.
There is no one exercise program that is right for everyone. Your age, current level of physical
fitness, and your goals should all help determine the program that is right for you.
Regardless of your personal fitness goals and the program that you pursue, warming up and
cooling down before and after you workout will help reduce the risk of injury and improve the
effectiveness of your workout.
Warming up is important to bring your body from its normal level of activity to a state where it is
ready to exercise by increasing the flow of blood to the muscle to raise the muscle
temperature. This will increase the muscle elasticity and protect the joints. The warm up
period also helps to mentally prepare you for your workout.
Warmups should be done at a low intensity level and last for at least five minutes.
Cooling down after your workout is required to gradually bring your cardiovascular system down
to its normal level.
Follow your workout with at least 10 minutes of stretching. Focus on the major muscle groups
of the lower extremity. When stretching, stretch the muscle until you feel gentle
tension, hold it and wait for the tension to relax while the muscle elongates, stretch the
muscle again until you feel gentle tension.
Do not bounce when you stretch, bouncing is not an effective approach to stretching and can lead
to injury.

The three components of a successful cardiovascular exercise program are:
• Frequency
• Intensity
• Time
In terms of frequency, you should exercise at least three times per week and preferably 6 times
per week at least 30 minutes per session.
The intensity of each workout refers to how hard you feel your working and can be measured by
your heart rate. Depending on your fitness goals, exercise between 55% and 90% of your maxi-
mum heart rate. A simple way of estimating your maximum heart rate is by subtracting your age
from 220. As a general rule of thumb, if your fitness objective is to lose weight, you will want to
keep your heart rate at between 60% and 75% of your maximum heart rate. If your objective is
improved aerobic performance keep your heart rate between 75% and 85% of your maximum
heart rate.
TARGET HEART RATE CHART
100%
To achieve benefits from your workout, your workout time should be at least 30 minutes per session.
If you are trying to lose weight focus on longer (more than 30 minutes) less intense workouts, to
improve your aerobic performance focus on shorter more intense workouts.

TR500/TR1000-TV assembly instructions
This treadmill is very heavy. It is a good idea to have two people present if any lifting is required.
We recommend taking off the top portion of the box and slitting the corners of the box that the
treadmill is sitting in. This will allow for the sides of the box to be folded down eliminating the
need to pick the treadmill out of the box.
Prior to starting the assembly process take all of the parts out of the box, remove all plastic bags,
and lay them out on the floor to become familiar with the components. Make sure that you
remove all parts packaged underneath the treadmill. You may need to slightly pick up the back of
the treadmill to get better access to the parts on the bottom. You will notice that the treadmill is
completely assembled except for the handlebars and the console.

This product must be properly grounded to work safely and properly. If a malfunction should occur,
grounding provides a path for electric current and reduces the risk of electric shock.
Your LifeSpan treadmill includes a standard American ground plug. Do not alter this plug in anyway
and do not by pass the ground with an adapter. Plug your treadmill into a 120 volt / 20 amp
grounded electrical outlet with 120 volts measured at the treadmill. If this breaker switch has
other appliances that run at the same time, you may experience problems with the breaker switch
or erratic performance from your treadmill.
Using electrical power other than the one specified above will void any warranty, implied
or otherwise.
Note: This unit may not work with a common GFCI outlet.
Warnings
Improper connection of the grounded plug can
result in the risk of shock. Check with a qualified
electrician if you have any questions or are in doubt
as to whether the product is properly ground.
Never use extension cords between the treadmill

exercise programs
TR1000-TV treadmill comes with 1 manual and 12 preset programs (5 Speed Programs, 5 Incline
Programs, 2 distance programs and H.R.C. program). Each preset program has 3 different levels.
Speed Programs – Programs P1 – P5 automatically change the speed of the treadmill throughout
the workout. The incline can be manually set by the user in any of the speed programs and this
incline will remain throughout the workout unless modified by the user. The speed can also be
modified, but changes to the speed will only last until the end of each specific program segment.
Profiles for the speed programs are shown below:
Incline Programs – Programs P6 – P10 automatically modify the level of incline for the treadmill
belt. In an incline program, the user sets the speed to a desired level and the program modifies
the incline. The user can override the incline for any segment within the workout but at the end of
each workout segment the program will override any adjustments made to the incline. The range of
incline in programs P6-P10 is from 1 to 11 level. Profiles for the incline programs are shown below:
Programs P11 and P12 are preset distance programs. The preset distance is 5 kilometers for P11
and 10 kilometers for P12. The incline will be changed automatically in these programs. The
range of incline is from 2 to 10 levels.
TARGET HEART RATE PROGRAM: This program automatically modifies the speed and incline to
maintain a preset target heart rate. This target is established in the setup process. The chart on this
owners manual should be used to determine the appropriate target heart rate. To set up the target
heart rate program, you will need to enter the workout time, your age, and your target heart rate.

Body Mass Program:
Body Mass Index (BMI) - Is a scientific measure that uses a ratio of height and weight. It is a
general measure of health risk, but does not take into account lean body mass. As a result, a
healthy muscular individual with very low body fat can be classified as over weight. The following
are general ranges of BMI measurements:
Below 20
Between 21 and 24
Between 25 and 29
Over 30
User Setup Programs - Provide the ability to establish customized workout programs specific to
a users workout requirements. For each user set up program, the workout time is set and then 10
unique workout segments are set up by the user. For each segment the user can preset the speed
and incline of the segment by using the up and down arrow buttons and then pushing the mode
button to set each program.
Lean - if you are not an athlete you should consider gaining weight
through good diet and exercise.
Ideal - indicates a healthy amount of body fat and the lowest incidence of serious illness.
Slightly Overweight - increased risk for a variety of illnesses. You
should find ways to reduce your weight through diet and exercise.
Overweight - indicates an unhealthy condition with a higher risk of
heart disease, diabetes, high blood pressure, gall bladder disease and
some cancers. You should focus on losing weight by changing your
diet and increasing levels of exercise.
Once a program is set up the user simply scrolls to the User1 program and pushes the start button.
To modify the program after it is established, select the program and then push the mode button.

treadmill operations
Before starting your treadmill the following actions will need to be properly completed:
Be certain that your treadmill is sitting level and stable. It is also recommended that you locate
1.
your treadmill in a pleasant area that gives you something to look at while working out, such
as a window or television. Maintaining an exercise program with a treadmill located in a
poorly lit basement room is more difficult than when your treadmill is located in an active
and pleasant location.
2. Make sure that your treadmill is plugged into a properly grounded outlet as described in the
grounding section of this document.
3. Turn the On/Off switch, which is located in the front of your treadmill, to the On position.

3. Speed Adjustment - can be increased and decreased in 3 different ways:
Display Console - "/\" "\/" Each time you press the "/\" button on the display console the speed will increase by 0.1 mile per hour.
Handlebar Speed Control - The heart rate sensor on the right side of the handlebars
includes a speed control switch. Pushing the switch on the right side increases the speed
by 0.1 mile and pushing the button on the right side decreases the speed. It needs to say
right side for increasing and left side for decreasing.
Quick Buttons - The display console includes buttons that immediately set the speed to
3, 4, 5, and 6 mile per hour without having to scroll through the speeds.
4. Incline - Like the speed settings, incline can be adjusted 3 different ways:
Display Console - "/\" "\/" Each time you depress the "/\" or "\/" button on the display console the incline will increase or decrease by 1 level.
Handlebar Incline Control - The heart rate sensor on the left side of the handlebars
includes an incline control switch. Pushing the switch on the left side increases the
incline by 1 level and pushing the button on the right side decreases the incline by 1 level.
Quick Buttons - The display console includes buttons that immediately set the incline to
4, 6, 8, and 10 level without having to scroll through the incline levels.
5. Display Readouts - Besides "Speed" and "Incline" the center LED window will display Time, Distance, Calories, Heart Rate and Laps. By pressing the MODE button, you can select the
function that you want displayed on the center LED window, or you can go to the Scan mode
to scan through all functions. In the "Quick Start" mode, time will start to count up from 0:00.

Resetting the Console
Press and hold the Start/Stop button until the console resets.
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
1. Make sure that the On/Off switch is turned Off and the power cord is removed from the wall.
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 lift 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 evenly 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:
• Do not fold the treadmill by lifting on the running belt or rear roller. These parts do not
lock in place and are difficult to grip when folding - personal injury or damage to the treadmill
could result.
• Do not lean against the treadmill once it is folded or place items on it that could cause it to
become unstable or fall over. This could result in serious personal injury.
• Do not connect the power cord when the treadmill is folded or try to operate the treadmill in
the folded position
18
Page 23
Unfolding the Treadmill
1. Make sure you have adequate space to lay the treadmill down. There needs to be at least
2 feet of clearance on both sides and in the front of the treadmill. There should be at
least 4 feet of clearance on the back side of the treadmill for safety reasons. If the user
were to fall this would give adequate clearance to get off the treadmill.
2. Inspect to ensure that nothing is on or near your treadmill that might spill, be knocked
over or prevent the treadmill from completely unfolding.
3. Position yourself behind the treadmill. Slightly push the treadmill forward towards the
display and with you left foot lightly push the top portion of the hydraulic lift 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.

troubleshooting
The treadmill is designed and manufactured to be reliable and easy to use. However, if
you have a problem, these troubleshooting steps may help you find the cause.
Problem: The console lights do not light up.
Solution: Check to make sure that the treadmill is properly plugged-in, the On/Off switch is
turned to the "On" position, and Safety Key is attached.
Problem: The belt does not stay in the center of the treadmill when in use.
Solution: First check to make sure that the treadmill is level, then refer to the instructions in
this manual on how to tension and adjust the belt.
Problem: The treadmill motor seems strained or the fuse becomes blown.
Solution: The lubricating silicon that is applied to the deck and belt is wearing down and the
belt needs to be lubricated with silicon spray.
Problem: The treadmill belt slips during use.
Solution: The belt may need to be tensioned after a period of use. Refer to the Belt Tensioning
and Adjustment Section of this manual.
Problem: Speed does not match quick keys. Treadmill Starts at 1 and goes to 16.
Solution: The treadmill is set up in Metric Mode. See chart on next page for Metric
English Conversion.
Problem: The console has some static lines going thru the display while the treadmill is
running. Some of this is normal due to interference from the motor.
Solution: Check the connection at the base of the right handlebar support post and at the back
of the console. Make sure the connections are tight and that the rubber boot at the
console connection is pulled up over the metal cable connectors. The boot will keep
the metal connectors from making contact with the metal handlebars or anything
metallic inside the console.
Note: There will be some static lines thru the display when the unit is running while
in TV mode.

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, alternating back and forth until the
belt slipping stops. After you adjust each side 1/2 turn, test to see if the slipping is eliminated. If
the belt still 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 need to be aligned.
Note: Over tensioning the belt can cause unnecessary friction and wear and tear on
the belt, motor and electronics.
Aligning the Running Belt
Ensure the running belt is centered on your treadmill at all times. Running style and a non- level
surface are two instances that may cause the belt to drift off center. Minor adjustments to the two
bolts at the rear of the treadmill are necessary when the belt has drifted off center.
1. Press "START" to begin running belt, then increase the treadmills speed to 3MPH.
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 step 3, 4 and 5 as needed.

Belt Lubrication
Your LifeSpan treadmill belt should be lubricated every 3 months of regular use or every 40
hours of use.
Use only 100% Silicon and avoid using aerosol silicon sprays that include additives and
petroleum distillates. One ounce of silicon should be used for each application. LifeSpan
offers 100% silicon lubricant that can be ordered at www.LifeSpanFitness.com or from
801.973.9993
When applying the silicon either apply it directly to the deck surface or to the back of the
running belt. This may be accomplished by folding the treadmill and applying the silicon to
the back of the belt from each back corner. Spray the silicon down and across the belt from
each corner. Rotate the belt 1/2 of the circumference and repeat from each corner.
Note: When lubricating the belt, make sure that the treadmill is located on a surface
that can be easily cleaned. After lubricating your treadmill, clean off any excess
silicon from the belt and frame.
Cleaning
After use, wipe down your treadmill with a soft cloth. On a regular basis, you will also want to
clean the treadmill using a mild detergent to remove all dirt and salt from the belt, painted parts
and the display.
Avoid getting dirt and other materials on the belt as these materials can work their way under the
belt and damage your treadmill or cause components to wear prematurely.
