IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Garage doors are large and heavy objects that move with the help of springs under high tension and electric
motors. Since moving objects, springs under tension, and electric motors can cause injuries, your safety and
the safety of others depends on you reading the information in this installation manual. If you have questions or
do not understand the information presented, call Linear PRO Access Technical Support at 1-800-543-1236.
TO REDUCE THE RISK OF SEVERE INJURY OR DEATH TO PERSONS, REVIEW THESE INSTALLATION
SAFETY STEPS BEFORE PROCEEDING
1 READ AND FOLLOW ALL INSTALLATION 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 the door monthly. The garage door MUST reverse on contact with a 1-1/2 inch high object (ir 2 x 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.
6 For products having an emergency release, when possible, use the emergency release only when door is
closed. Use caution when using this release with 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 user’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.
8 For operator systems equipped with an unattended operation feature, the following statement shall be
included: “This operator system is equipped with and unattended operation feature. The door could move
unexpectedly. NO ONE SHOULD CROSS THE PATH OF THE MOVING DOOR”.
