INSTALLATION STEP 8
Attach the Emergency Release Rope and Handle
• Thread one end of the rope through the hole in the top of the
red handle so “NOTICE” reads right side up as shown. Secure
with an overhand knot at least 1" (2.5 cm) from the end of the
rope to prevent slipping.
• Thread the other end of the rope through the hole in the
release arm of the outer trolley.
• Adjust rope length so the handle is 6 feet (1.83 m) above the
floor. Ensure that the rope and handle clear the tops of all
vehicles to avoid entanglement. Secure with an overhand knot.
NOTE:
If it is necessary to cut the rope, heat seal the cut end with
a match or lighter to prevent unraveling.

To prevent possible SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH from a falling
garage door:
• If possible, use emergency release handle to disengage
trolley ONLY when garage door is CLOSED. Weak or broken
springs or unbalanced door could result in an open door
falling rapidly and/or unexpectedly.
• NEVER use emergency release handle unless garage doorway
is clear of persons and obstructions.
• NEVER use handle to pull door open or closed. If rope knot
becomes untied, you could fall.
INSTALLATION STEP 7
Install the Light
INSTALL THE LIGHT
• Install a 75 watt maximum light bulb in the socket. The light
will turn ON and remain lit for approximately 4-1/2 minutes
when power is connected. Then the light will turn OFF.
• Use A19, standard neck garage door opener bulbs for
replacement.
INSTALL THE LENS
• Locate and loosen (approximately 1/8") the two screws near
top of opener front panel.
• Position lens against panel with slotted tabs directly below
screws. Slide lens up to seat tabs behind screws.
• Snap bottom tabs of lens into panel slots.
• Retighten top panel screws to secure lens.
To prevent possible OVERHEATING of the endpanel or light
socket:
• DO NOT use short neck or specialty light bulbs.
• DO NOT use halogen bulbs. Use ONLY incandescent.
To prevent damage to the opener:
• DO NOT use bulbs larger than 75W.
• ONLY use A19 size bulbs.
