Safety Obstruction Force Test

WARNING! Take care when testing or adjusting

the Safety Obstruction Force. Excessive force

may cause SERIOUS PERSONAL INJURY and/or

PROPERTY DAMAGE.

WARNING! Photo electric beams must be installed

if the closing force at the bottom edge of the door

exceeds 400N (40kg) force.

Step 15.1 - Testing Close Cycle

Press the OPERATE button to open the door (Fig.

27).

Place a piece of timber approximately 40mm high

on the ﬂ oor directly under the door (Fig. 34).

Press the OPERATE button to close door. The door

should strike the object and start to re-open.

Step 15.2 - Testing Open Cycle

Press the OPERATE button to close the door (Fig.

28).

Press again to open the door. When the door

reaches the half open point, grab the bottom rail of

the door ﬁ rmly and the door should stop.

If the door does not reverse readily when closing,

or stop when opening, the force may be excessive

and need adjusting, refer below.

DANGER! If the door fails these tests, put the

opener into manual mode, only operate the door

by hand and call for service.
