Keep garage door balanced. Sticking or binding doors must
be repaired. Garage doors, door springs, cables, pulleys,
brackets and their hardware are under extreme tension and
can cause serious personal injury. Do not attempt to loosen,
move or adjust them. Call for garage door service.
Do not wear rings, watches or loose clothing while installing
or servicing a garage door opener.
To avoid serious personal injury from entanglement, remove
all ropes connected to the garage door before installing the
door opener.
Installation and wiring must be in compliance with your local
building and electrical codes. Connect the power supply
cord only to properly earthed mains.
Lightweight doors or fiberglass, aluminum or steel must
be substantially reinforced to avoid door damage. (See
page 4.) The best solution is to check with your garage door
manufacturer for an opener installation reinforcement kit.
The safety reverse system test is very important. Your
garage door MUST reverse on contact with a 50mm (2")
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
needed adjustments.
This unit should not be installed in a damp or wet space.
Door must not extend over public byway during operation.
The force, as measured on the closing edge of the door,
should not exceed 150 N (15kg). If the closing force is
adjusted to more than 150 N, the Protector System must
be installed. Do not use the force adjustments to
compensate for a binding or sticking garage door.
Excessive force will interfere with the proper operation of the
Safety Reverse System or damage the garage door.
Fasten the caution label adjacent to the lighted door control
button as a reminder of safe operating procedures.
Disengage all existing garage door locks to avoid damage
to garage door.
Install the lighted door control button (or any additional push
buttons) in a location where the garage door is visible, but
out of the reach of children. Do not allow children to
operate push button(s) or remote control(s). Serious
personal injury from a closing garage door may result from
misuse of the opener.
Activate opener only when the door is in full view, free of
obstructions and opener is properly adjusted. No one
should enter or leave the garage while the door is in
motion. Do not allow children to play near the door.
Use manual release only to disengage the trolley and, if
possible, only when the door is closed. Do not use the red
handle to pull the door open or closed.
Disconnect electric power to the garage door opener
before making repairs or removing covers.

ADJUSTMENT SECTION -
LIMIT ADJUSTMENT
Run the opener through a complete travel cycle. Limit adjustments are
not necessary when the door opens and closes completely and doesn't
reverse unintentionally in the fully closed position.
Situations requiring limit adjustment are listed below. Run the opener
through a complete travel cycle after each adjustment.
NOTE: Repeated operation of the opener during adjustment procedures
may cause motor to overheat and shut off. Allow a 15 minute cooling
period after 5 continuous operations of the opener.
Read the following carefully before proceeding to Force Adjustment. Use a
screwdriver to make limit adjustments.
If Door Doesn't Open Completely but Opens at Least 1,5m (5 feet):
Increase up travel. Turn the up limit adjustment screw (1) clockwise. One
turn equals 5cm (2") of travel.
If door does not open at least 1,5m (5 feet): Adjust up (open) force.
See Force Adjustment.
If Door Doesn't Close Completely: Increase down travel. Turn down
limit adjustment screw (2) counterclockwise. One turn equals 5cm (2") of
travel. If the door still will not close completely, lengthen the door arm. If it
still will not close completely, lower the header bracket.
If Opener Reverses in Fully Closed Position: Decrease down travel.
Turn down limit adjustment screw (2) clockwise. One turn equals 5cm (2")
of travel.
If Door Reverses when Closing and there is no Interference to Travel
Cycle: Test door for binding. Pull manual release handle. Manually open
and close door. If door is binding, call a door serviceman. If door is not
binding or unbalanced, adjust down (close) force.
FORCE ADJUSTMENT
The force, as measured on the closing edge of the door, should not
exceed 150 N (15kg). If the closing force is adjusted to more than
150 N, the Protector System must be installed.
Do not use force adjustments to compensate for a binding or sticking
garage door. Excessive force will interfere with proper operation of
safety reverse system or damage garage door.
Force Adjustment Controls (1 & 2) are located on the back panel of the
opener.
If the force adjustments are set too light, door travel may be interrupted by
nuisance reversals in down direction and stops in up direction. Weather
conditions can affect the door movement, occasional adjustment may be
needed.
Maximum force adjustment range is 260 degrees, about 3/4 of a complete
turn. Do not force controls beyond that point. Turn force adjustment
controls with a screwdriver.
Test Down (Close) Force: Grasp the door handle or door bottom when
door is about halfway through down (close) travel. Door should reverse.
Reversal halfway through down travel does not guarantee reversal on a
50mm (2") obstruction. If the door is hard to hold or doesn't reverse,
decrease down (close) force by turning the control (2) in a
counterclockwise direction. Make small adjustments until door reverses
normally. After each adjustment, run opener through a complete cycle.
If Door Doesn't Open at Least 1,5m (5 feet): Increase up (open) force by
turning the control (1) in a clockwise direction. Make small adjustments until
door opens completely. Re-adjust up limit if necessary. After each
adjustment, run opener through a complete travel cycle.
If Door Reverses During Down (Close) Cycle: Increase down (close)
force by turning the control (2) in a clockwise direction. Make small
adjustments until door completes close cycle. After each adjustment, run
the opener through a complete travel cycle. Do not increase the force
beyond the minimum amount required to close the door.
TEST THE SAFETY REVERSE SYSTEM
The safety reverse system test is important. Garage door must
reverse on contact with a 50mm (2") obstacle laid flat on the floor.
Failure to properly adjust opener may result in serious personal injury
from a closing garage door. Repeat test once a month and adjust as
needed.
Procedure: Always begin with door in fully open position. Place a 50mm
(2") obstacle (1) laid flat on the floor under the garage door. Operate the
door in the down direction. The door must reverse on the obstruction. If
the door stops on the obstruction, it is not traveling far enough in the
down direction. Increase the down limit by turning down limit adjustment
screw counterclockwise 1/4 turn. Repeat test.
When the door reverses on the 50mm (2") obstacle, remove the
obstruction and run the opener through a complete travel cycle. Door must
not reverse in closed position. If it does, adjust Limits and Force and
repeat safety reverse test.
INSTALL THE SAFETY EYES (OPTIONAL)
(See accessories)
The force, as measured on the closing edge of the door, should not
exceed 150 N (15kg). If the closing force is adjusted to more than
150 N, the Protector System must be installed.
After opener has been installed and adjusted, The Safety Eyes accessory
can be installed. Instructions are included with this optional device.
The Safety Eyes provides an additional measure of safety against a
small child being caught under a garage door.
It uses an invisible beam which, when broken by an obstruction, causes a
closing door to open and prevents an open door from closing and is
strongly recommended for homeowners with young children.

• The Outside Keylock or Keyless Entry System (if you have installed
either of these accessories).
• The Remote Control Transmitter. Hold the push button down until the
door starts to move.
Opening the Door Manually:
Door should be fully closed if possible. Weak or broken springs could
allow an open door to fall rapidly. Property damage or serious
personal injury could result.
The door can be opened manually by pulling the release handle straight
down (so that the trolley release arm snaps into a vertical position). To
reconnect the door, pull the release handle toward the opener at a 45˚
angle so that the trolley release arm is horizontal. See illustration 14.
Do not use the manual release handle to pull the door open or closed.
When the Opener is Activated by Remote Control or Lighted Door
Control Button:
1. If open, the door will close. If closed, the door will open.
2. If closing, the door will reverse.
3. If opening, the door will stop (allowing space for entry and exit of pets
and for fresh air).
4. If the door has been stopped in a partially open position, it will close.
5. If an obstruction is encountered while closing, the door will reverse.
6. If an obstruction is encountered while opening, the door will stop.
7. The optional Protector System™uses an invisible beam which, when
broken by an obstruction, causes a closing door to open and prevents
an open door from closing. It is STRONGLY RECOMMENDED for
homeowners with young children.
Allow a 15 minute cooling period after 5 continuous operations of the
opener.
The opener light will turn on: 1. when opener is initially plugged in;
2. when the power is interrupted; 3. when the opener is activated.
The light turns off automatically after 4-1/2 minutes. Bulb size is 40 Watts
maximum (230V, E27).
CARE OF YOUR OPENER
When properly installed, opener will provide high performance with a
minimum of maintenance. The opener does not require additional
lubrication.
Limit and Force Adjustments: These adjustments must be checked and
properly set when opener is installed. Only a screwdriver is
required. Weather conditions may cause some minor changes in the door
operation, requiring some re-adjustments, particularly during the first year
of operation.
Refer to the limit and force adjustments on page 4. Follow the instructions
carefully and repeat the safety reverse test after any adjustment.
Remote Control Transmitter: The portable remote control may be
secured to a car sun visor with the clip provided. Additional remotes can be
purchased at any time for use in all vehicles using garage. Refer to
Accessories. The receiver must be programmed to operate with any new

garage door service.
•Check to be sure door opens and closes fully. Adjust Limits and/or Force
if necessary. Once a Year:
Oil door rollers, bearings and hinges. The opener does not require
additional lubrication. Do not grease the door tracks.
HAVING A PROBLEM?
1. Opener doesn't operate from either door control or remote:
•Does the opener have electric power? Plug lamp into outlet. If it doesn't
light, check the fuse box or the circuit breaker. (Some outlets are
controlled by a wall switch.)
•Have you disengaged all door locks? Review installation instruction
warnings on page 1.
•Is there a build-up of ice or snow under door? The door may be frozen to
ground. Remove any obstruction.
•The garage door spring may be broken. Have it replaced.
•Repeated operation may have tripped the overload protector in the motor.
Wait 15 minutes. Try again.
2. Opener operates from remote but not from door control:
•Is door control button lit? If not, remove the bell wire from the opener
terminals. Short the red and white terminals by touching both terminals at
the same time with a piece of wire. If the opener runs, check for a faulty
wire connection at the door control, a short under the staples, or a broken
wire.
•Are wiring connections correct? Review page 3.
3. Door operates from door control but not from remote:
•Replace battery if necessary.
•If you have two or more remotes and only one operates, review receiver
programming procedures on page 4.
•Is the door control button flashing? The opener receiver must
re-learn the remote control code. Follow the instructions on page 4.
4. Remote has short range:
•Replace battery.
•Change the location of the remote control on the car.
•A metal garage door, foil-backed insulation or metal siding will reduce the
transmission range.
•Make sure antenna is fully extended across ceiling towards the door.
5. Door reverses for no apparent reason and opener lights don't blink:
•Is something obstructing the door? Pull manual release handle. Operate
door manually. If it is unbalanced or binding, call for professional garage
door service.
•Clear any ice or snow from garage floor area where garage door closes.
•Review Force Adjustment.
•If door reverses in FULLY CLOSED position, decrease travel limits.
Repeat safety reverse test after adjustment is complete.
The need for occasional adjustment of the force and limit settings is
normal. Weather conditions in particular can affect door travel.
6. Door reverses for no apparent reason and opener lights blink for
5 seconds after reversing:
Check The Safety Eyes (if you have installed this accessory). If the light is
blinking, correct alignment.

HAVING A PROBLEM? (Continued)
7. Opener noise is disturbing in living quarters of home:
If operational noise is a problem because of proximity of the opener to the
living quarters, Vibration Isolator Kit 41A3263 can be installed. This kit was
designed to eliminate the "sounding board effect" and is easy to install.
8. The garage door opens and closes by itself:
•Is there a neighbor with a garage door opener using the same frequency
code? Change your code.
•Make sure remote push button is not stuck “on.”
9. Door stops but doesn't close completely:
Review Travel Limits Adjustment.
Repeat safety reverse test after any adjustment of door arm length,
close force or down limit.
10. Door opens but won't close:
•Check The Safety Eyes (if you have installed this accessory). If the light
is blinking, correct alignment.
•If opener lights do not blink and it is a new installation, check the down
force.
Repeat the safety reverse test after the adjustment is complete.
11. Opener light does not turn on:
Replace light bulb (40 Watts maximum, 230V, E27). Replace burned out
bulbs with rough service light bulbs.
12. Opener light does not turn off:
There may be a defective earth at the ceiling or wall receptacle. The unit
must be earthed.
13. Opener strains or maximum force is needed to activate door:
Door may be unbalanced or springs are broken. Close door and use
manual release rope and handle to disconnect trolley. Open and close door
manually. A properly balanced door will stay in any point of travel while
being supported entirely by its springs. If it does not, call for professional
garage door service to correct the problem. Do not increase the force to
operate the opener.
14. Opener motor hums briefly, then won't work:
•Garage door springs are broken. SEE ABOVE.
•If problem occurs on first operation of opener, door may be locked.
Disable door lock.
15. Opener won't activate due to power failure:
•Pull manual release rope and handle straight down to disconnect trolley.
Door can be opened and closed manually. When the power is restored,
pull the manual release handle toward the opener at a 45˚angle, so that
the trolley release arm is horizontal. The next time the opener is
activated, the trolley will reconnect.
•The Outside Quick Release accessory (if fitted) disconnects the trolley
from outside the garage in case of power failure.
