MANUAL DOOR OPERATION - EMERGENCY DISCONNECT
(see Diagram 16 on page 11 of Drawings of Installation, Use and Maintenance manual)
WARNING
THE EMERGENCY DISCONNECT SHOULD ONLY BE USED WHEN DOOR IS CLOSED. POSSIBLE UNEXPECTED
MOVEMENT OF THE DOOR COULD OCCUR WITH DOOR NOT FULLY CLOSED.
The opener is equipped with an emergency disconnect that allows the door to be moved manually and independent from the opener. With the door
closed, pull down on the disconnect handle (1o) and place the handle under the lower fork section of the handle bracket. This motion causes the motor of
the opener to pivot upwards disconnecting it from the torque tube. Releasing the disconnect handle from the lower fork on the handle bracket and
returning the handle to its original position will reconnect the opener to the torque tube.
NOTE
: The motor will not pivot down when the handle is released. After one complete up/down door cycle, the motor will once again pivot down, and all
cable slack will be taken up.
DISCONNECT LABEL:
Label is located on right side of vertical track next to disconnect handle. View on the left shows handle position when opener is
in the motor operated mode. View on right shows handle position when opener is in the manually operated mode.
NOTE
: Avoid using the emergency disconnect with the door in the open position.
BATTERY REPLACEMENT
(see Diagram 17 on page 11 of Drawings of Installation, Use and Maintenance manual)
Inability to activate door using transmitter (A13) or wall station (A12) may be caused by a weak or dead battery. Press and hold door activation button on
either transmitter or wall station. If the led (2a or 2f) does not light, this is an indication that the battery is weak or dead. Replace the battery.
Insert a coin in the coin slot of wall station or transmitter and twist coin to access the dead battery. Replace dead battery, being careful to match the
positive (+) symbols on the circuit boards with the battery. Dispose of dead battery properly.
NOTE
: use only mn21 or equivalent 12-Volt battery (A12.5).
