Checkout this, This is from PHP MANUAL, This may help you.

If you're using PHP_CLI SAPI and getting error "Maximum execution time of N seconds exceeded" where N is an integer value, try to call set_time_limit(0) every M seconds or every iteration. For example:

query($sql);

while ($row = $stmt->fetchRow()) {
    set_time_limit(0);
    // your code here
}
