IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR OWNER
•
Understand all of the operating features of your door control system at the time of its
installation. Your installing dealer will demonstrate them for you.
•
NEVER let children operate or play with door controls. Keep the Remote Control away from
children.
•
ALWAYS keep a moving door in sight and keep people and objects away from the door area
until the door is completely closed. NO ONE SHOULD CROSS THE PATH OF A MOVING
DOOR.
•
TEST THE DOOR OPENER’S REVERSING FEATURE (where applicable) MONTHLY. The
door MUST reverse upon contact with a 4” high object on the floor. After adjusting the
force setting (clutch) or the limit of travel, ALWAYS RETEST the Opener. Failure to ADJUST
THE OPENER PROPERLY may result in SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH.
•
To protect the motor protector from tripping - Do not exceed 10 door cycles per hour.
•
IMPORTANT: The hardware box contains a caution label which states: “This door is
operated by a light duty operator. To prevent the motor protector from tripping - Do not
exceed 10 door cycles per hour.” Permanently install this label adjacent to the door, near
the push button station, at the eye height of the average adult, approximately six feet above
the above the floor.
•
DO NOT over adjust the force setting (clutch) to compensate for a poorly working door. See
page 18 for procedure to check the door operation and page 14 for proper clutch
adjustment.
•
If possible, USE THE MANUAL RELEASE only when the door is closed. Use caution when
using the Release with the door open. WEAK OR BROKEN SPRINGS MAY ALLOW THE
DOOR TO CLOSE RAPIDLY, CAUSING SEVERE INJURY OR DEATH.
•
KEEP THE GARAGE DOOR PROPERLY BALANCED. See the door owner's manual. An
improperly balanced door MAY CAUSE SEVERE INJURY OR DEATH. Have a QUALIFIED
SERVICE PERSON MAKE REPAIRS TO CABLES, SPRING ASSEMBLIES AND OTHER
HARDWARE.

Inspect and maintain your door system as described in this manual.
