INSTALLATION STEP 7
Install the Light
1. Press the release tabs on both sides of lens. Gently
rotate lens back and downward until the lens hinge is
in the fully open position. Do not remove the lens.
2. Install up to a 100 watt maximum light bulb in the
socket. Light bulb size should be A19, standard
neck only. The light will turn ON and remain lit
for approximately 4-1/2 minutes when power is
connected. Then the light will turn OFF.
3. Reverse the procedure to close the lens.
4. Use A19, standard neck garage door opener bulbs for
replacement.
NOTE:
Use only a standard light bulb. The use of a short
neck or speciality light bulb may overheat the endpanel or
light socket.
INSTALLATION STEP 8
Attach the Emergency Release Rope and
Handle
1. Insert one end of the emergency release rope through
the handle. Make sure that “NOTICE” is right side up.
Tie a knot at least 1 inch (2.5 cm) from the end of the
emergency release rope.
2. Insert the other end of the emergency release rope
through the hole in the trolley release arm. Mount
the emergency release within reach, but at least 6
feet (1.83 m) above the fl oor, avoiding contact with
vehicles to prevent accidental release and secure with
a knot.
NOTE:
If it is necessary to cut the emergency release
rope, seal the cut end with a match or lighter to prevent
unraveling. Ensure the emergency release rope and
handle are above the top of all vehicles to avoid
entanglement.
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 100W.
• ONLY use A19 size bulbs.
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.
