inflict severe injury. Have a qualified service person make repairs to cables, spring assemblies, and
other hardware before installing the opener.

WARNING
To reduce the risk of severe injury or death:
1. READ AND FOLLOW ALL INSTRUCTIONS.
2. Never let children operate or play with door controls. Keep the remote control away from children.
3. Always keep the moving door in sight and away from people and objects until it is completely
closed. NO ONE SHOULD CROSS THE PATH OF THE MOVING DOOR.
4. NEVER GO UNDER A STOPPED, PARTIALLY OPEN DOOR.
5. Test door opener monthly. The garage door MUST reverse on contact with a 1-1/2-inch high object
(or a 2 by 4 board laid flat) on the floor. After adjusting either the force or the limit of travel, retest
the door opener. Failure to adjust the opener properly increases the risk of severe injury or death.

the door open.
Weak or broken springs are capable of increasing the rate of door closure and increasing the risk of
severe injury or death.
7. KEEP GARAGE DOORS PROPERLY BALANCED. See owner’s manual. An improperly balanced door
increases the risk of severe injury or death. Have a qualified service person make repairs to cables,
spring assemblies, and other hardware.
