• 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 25mm from the end of
the rope to prevent slipping.
• Thread the other end of the rope through the loop of red
clutch lever.
• Adjust rope length so the handle is no higher than 1.8m
above the floor. Secure with an overhand knot. If the door is
greater than 2.5m in height the release cord extension kit
accessory is required.
NOTE: Final adjustment of handle height should be
completed after the opener is installed. If it is necessary
to cut the rope, heat seal the cut end to prevent
unravelling (refer section 16).
