Nuts 5/16 -18 Screw • Secure with a ring fastener. Door Arm On one-piece doors, before connecting the door arm to the trolley the travel limits must be adjusted.
Adjustment Section: Pages 28 - 30 Adjustment Step 1 Adjust the UP and DOWN Limits Do not make any limit adjustments until the safety reversing sensors are completely installed. Improper adjustment of the travel limits will interfere with the proper operation of the safety reverse system. The door might not reverse properly when required and could seriously injure or kill someone under it. Test the safety reverse system following all adjustments to the travel limits. See page 30.
Adjustment Adjust Step 2 I I the Force Too much force on the door will interfere with the proper operation of the safety reverse system. The door might not reverse properly when required and could seriously injure or kill someone under it. Do not increase the force beyond the minimum amount required to close the door. Do not use the force adjustments to compensate for a binding or sticking garage door. Test the safety reverse system following all adjustments to force levels. See page 30.
Adjustment Step 3 Test The Safety Reversing Sensor I • Press the remote control push button to open the door. • Place the opener carton in the path of the door. • Press the remote control push button to close the door. The door will not move more than an inch, and the opener light(s) will flash. Professional service is required if the opener closes the door when the safety reversing sensor is obstructed.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS To reduce the risk of severe injury or death to persons: 1. READ AND FOLLOW ALL INSTRUCTIONS. 5. If possible, use the emergency release only when the door is in a closed position. Caution should be taken whenever the disconnect cord is actuated with the door open. Weak or broken springs may cause the door to fall rapidly, causing injury or death to persons. 6. KEEP GARAGE DOORS PROPERLY BALANCED. See page 3.
Operation of Your Opener Activate the opener with any of the following: • The Remote Control: Hold push button clown until the door starts to move. • The Door Control: Hold push button down until the door starts to move. • Weak or broken springs could allow an open door to fall (either rapidly or unexpectedly), resulting in serious injury, death or property damage. If possible, use the emergency release rope and handle onlywhen the door is fully closed.
