STEP 6 Install the Light Bulb
To prevent possible OVERHEATING of the end panel or light socket:
l
Use ONLY A19 incandescent (100W maximum) or compact fluorescent (26W maximum) light bulbs.
l
DO NOT use incandescent bulbs larger than 100W.
l
DO NOT use compact fluorescent light bulbs larger than 26W (100W equivalent).
l
DO NOT use halogen bulbs.
l
DO NOT use short neck or specialty light bulbs.
l
DO NOT use LED bulbs
1.
Install a 100 watt maximum light bulb in the socket. Light bulb size should be A19, standard neck only. The
light will turn ON and remain lit for approximately 4-1/2 minutes when power is connected. Then the light
will turn OFF.
2.
Insert bottom lens tabs into slots on chassis. Tilt towards chassis to engage top tabs, then drop down gently
into place (see illustration).
3.
To remove, depress both top lens tabs. Tilt lens slightly outward and down, then pull out to clear bulb. Use
care to avoid snapping off bottom lens tabs.
NOTE:
Do not use halogen, short neck, or specialty light bulbs as these may overheat the end panel or light socket.
Do not use LED bulbs as they may reduce the range or performance of your remote controls.
STEP 7 Attach the Emergency Release Rope and Handle
To prevent possible SERIOUS INJURY or DEATH from a falling garage door:
l
If possible, use emergency release handle to disengage trolley ONLY when garage door is CLOSED. Weak
or broken springs or unbalanced door could result in an open door falling rapidly and/or unexpectedly.
l
NEVER use emergency release handle unless garage doorway is clear of persons and obstructions.
l
NEVER use handle to pull door open or closed. If rope knot becomes untied, you could fall.
1.
Insert one end of the emergency release rope through the handle. Make sure that “NOTICE” is right side
up. Secure with an overhand knot at least 1" (2.5 cm) from the end of the rope to prevent slipping.
2.
Insert the other end of the emergency release rope through the hole in the trolley release arm. Mount the
emergency release within reach, but at least 6 feet (1.83 m) above floor, avoiding contact with vehicles to
prevent accidental release and secure with an overhand knot.
NOTE:
If it is necessary to cut the emergency release rope, seal the cut end with a match or lighter to prevent
unraveling. Ensure the emergency release rope and handle are above the top of all vehicles to avoid entanglement.
