1. INSTALLATION SAFETY WARNINGS
The garage door opener is designed and tested to offer safe service, provided it is
installed and operated in strict accordance with the following safety warnings and
instrucons in this manual. Please read and follow all instrucons carefully.
Failure to comply with the following instrucons may result in death, serious
personal injury or property damage.
WARNING
• Keep garage door balanced. Do not let the garage door opener compensate
for a binding or scking garage door. Scking, binding or unbalanced doors
must be repaired before installing this opener.
• Keep the path of the door clear - Door may fall rapidly due to weak or broken
springs or improperly balanced.
• Remove all ropes, chains and locks connected to the garage door before
installing the door opener to avoid serious personal injury from
entanglement.
• Do not disengage the opener to manual operaon whilst children/persons
or any object is within the doorway.
• Do not use a door with faulty obstrucon sensing - If the door is closing and
is unable to re-open when obstructed disconnue use. Your garage door
MUST reverse on contact with a 40mm obstacle placed on the floor. Failure
to properly adjust the opener may result in serious personal injury from a
closing garage door. Repeat the test once a month and make any necessary
adjustments.
• Photo Electric Beam Installaon - When using the auto close mode, a PE
beam (IR Beam) must be fied correctly and tested for operaon regularly.
Extreme cauon should be taken when using this feature.
ELECTROCUTION
• Do not install in a damp or wet space exposed to weather.
• Do not spray your opener with water
• Disconnect Power and Baeries before making repairs or removing cover.
• Only experienced Service Personnel should remove covers from the opener
• Installaon and Wiring - Must be in compliant with your local building and
electrical codes.
• Supply cord - if the supply cord is damaged it must be replaced by the
manufacturer, its service agent or similarly qualified persons in order to
avoid hazards.
• Connect the opener to a properly earthed general purpose 240V mains
power outlet installed by a qualified electrical contractor.
CAUTION:
• Emergency Access - If this garage has no pedestrian entrance door, the
Emergency access device should be installed. This accessory allows manual
operaon of the garage door from outside in case of power failure.
© LEXO Automaon Pty Ltd 2019 | www.lexo.com.au | Model RD1P1000A | Page 2/22

• User - this appliance is not intended for use by persons (including children)
with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilies, or lack of experience
and knowledge.
• Automac Drive - Keep away from the area of the door as it may operate
unexpectedly.
• Wicket Door - This opener must NOT be used on a wicket door (door within
a door).
• The Protector System TM - must not be used for all installaons where the
closing force as measured on the boom of the door is over 400N (40kgf).
Excessive force will interfere with the proper operaon of the safety reverse
system or damage the garage door.
• Aer Installaon - ensure that the parts of the door do not extend over
public footpaths or roads.
• Wireless Wall Controls and Transmiers - Install in a locaon where the
garage door is visible, at a height of at least 1.5m and out of the reach of
children. Do not allow children to operate push buon (s) or transmier (s).
Serious personal injury from a closing garage door may result from misuse of
the opener.
• Warning Labels - Permanently fasten warning labels in a prominent place.
Adjacent to wall controls and manual release mechanisms as a reminder of
safe operang procedures.
• Acvate opener only when the door is in full view, free of obstrucons and
the opener is properly adjusted. No one should enter or leave the garage
while the door is in moon.
• Children - Do not allow children to touch or acvate wall controls and
transmiers. Make sure children are not allowed to play near the door or
with door controls.
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
• Pracce correct liing techniques
• Ensure ladder is correct type for your job. Ensure the ladder is placed on a
flat firm ground and that user has 3 points of contact prior whilst on ladder.
• Secure the door - Place a 2-metre exclusion zone around the area under the
door while it is unsecured.
• Springs, Cables and Mounngs - Examine the installaon for signs of wear,
damage and imbalance of springs and mounngs. Do not use if repair or
adjustment is needed. Springs and hardware are under extreme tension and
a fault can cause serious personal injury.
• Repair Scking or binding doors by a qualified garage door installer prior to
installaon of the opener.
• DO NOT wear loose clothing or Jewellery while installing or servicing a
garage door opener. Wear gloves and suitable protecve clothing where
appropriate.

balanced
Door Axle diameter must not exceed 35mm
Ensure that there is at least 45mm from the edge of the curtain to the edge of
the bracket.

an extension pole kit may be required (secon 5.7)
5. DOOR PREPARATION
Complete the following test to ensure
that your door is well balanced, and not
scking or binding.
• Disable all locks and remove any
ropes connected to the garage door.
• Li the door to about halfway and
then release it. The door should
remain spring balanced.
• Raise and lower the door to
determine if there are any scking
or binding points (20kgf is the
absolute maximum allowable to
raise or lower the door in any
posion).
• Clean the Guides of any oil or wax built up
• Install locking bar covers if there are locking bar holes in the guides. This
ensures fingers cannot be placed in the holes while the door operates
• Place included warning label so they are visible on the inside of the door
If your door does not hold in place or the door binds or sticks, have your roller door
attended to by a qualified technician before installing the Roller door opener.
5.1 Testing the door
• Install the stop collar on the
opposite end to where the opener is
going to be installed.
ie – Right hand installation – Stop Collar
will be on the Left Hand side.

• Thread the other end of the rope
through the loop of the manual
release cable.
• Adjust rope length so the handle
(when installed) will be no higher
than 1.8m above the floor.

installed. If it is necessary to cut the
rope, heat seal the cut end to prevent
unravelling.

6. INSTALLATION PROCEDURE
Do not allow people to walk underneath or around the door during the
installaon process as serious injury can occur.
Note: The opener can be installed on either side of the door. The following instructions
are for RIGHT HAND INSTALLATIONS (as illustrated ie. Inside the garage looking out).
For left hand installation, reverse the instruction terminology (eg. LEFT FOR RIGHT
etc).
6.1 Preparation
• Place the opener in manual release
mode (refer Secon 5.5)
• Open the roller door fully. For safety,
e a rope around the door to hold the
door in place.
• Ensure the door axle U-BOLT and door
mounng bracket on the le hand side
(non-opener) are securely fastened.
• Support the door with a door stand or
similar device to safely support the door.
6.2 Install the Opener
• Slide the opener over the door axle
and engage the drive legs into the
door drum wheel, either side of a
spoke. Extensions may be
necessary (refer to Secon 5.7).
• Refit the door mounng bracket to
the wall. If the door bracket needs
to be relocated due to opener
width. Refer to Secon 4.
• Clamp the opener on the door axle
and door bracket in the marked
posion using the clamp assembly
supplied (ghten to 25-28Nm).
• If side room exceeds 95mm clamp
independently to the door axle as
illustrated in Secon 4.
• Remove all ropes and the support
stand.
• Check the operaon of the door in
manual mode by raising and
lowering by hand. It should
operate smoothly without scking
or binding. The disengage handle
should already be aached less than
1.8m above the floor (refer to
Secon 5.1 and 5.4).
• Mark the posion of the door sha on the right hand door bracket (for
reassembly purposes).
• While the door is supported, remove the right hand axle U-Bolt and
door mounng bracket from the wall.
