The force, as measured on the closing edge of the
door, should not exceed 400 N (40kg). If the closing
force is more than 400 N, the Protector System must
be installed. Do not use the force setting procedure
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.
Permanently 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, at a height of at least 1,5m and 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.
This product is provided with a power supply cord of
special design which,
if damaged, must be replaced by
a power supply cord of the same type
