CAUTION Do not close door from
outside until all latches have been
checked for correct setting and
operation. Failure to follow these
instructions carefully may result in a
lock out situation and a chargeable
service call may result.
Take cable with double loop and attach
looped end of cable (without clamp) in
centre groove of nylon latch (see fig. 8).
Loop the other end of the cable over the
closest arm on the internal latch lever.
Repeat this operation for both side latches.
Remove ‘Park pins’ to release latches (see fig.
8). The setting mark on the nylon latch (see
fig. 8) indicates nominal latch position but
adjustment may be necessary to ensure
correct latch engagement. This can be done
by either looping the cable over a different
groove in the latch (see fig. 8) or by
loosening the screw on the cable clamp,
moving cable slightly and re-tightening.
IMPORTANT Test latches for correct
operation.
•
Side latches should engage behind side
WARNING
When fitting the multi-point latching do not
shut the door whilst you are outside the
garage until all latches have been correctly
set and tested (See instructions 8 & 9)
Failure to comply could result in being
locked out of the garage and a chargeable
service call will be required.
