IMPORTANT! PLEASE READ THESE INSTRUCTIONS CAREFULLY PRIOR TO
INSTALLATION OF THE ROLLER DOOR OPERATOR.
This automatic opener has been designed to provide years of trouble free use. The opener will
perform efficiently only if it is installed and operated correctly.
READ THESE IMPORTANT SAFETY RULES FIRST.
Keep garage door balanced. Sticking or binding doors must be repaired. Garage doors, door
springs, brackets and their hardware are under extreme tension and can cause serious personal
injury.
Do not attempt adjustment.
Call professional garage door installers.
Do not wear rings, watches or loose clothing while installing or servicing a garage door operator.
Installation and wiring must be in compliance with your local building and electrical codes.
The safety reverse system
test is very important. Your garage door must reverse on a contact with
a
5 to 10cm high object on the floor. Failure to properly adjust the operator may result in serious
personal injury from a closing garage door. Repeat the test once a month and make any needed
adjustments. (See Sensitivity adjustment).
DTS-12 operator has an electronic obstruction system that provides safe and reliable operation.
It is however a legal requirement in some countries to also install a Photo-electric sensor across the
door way. Please check this requirement with your local distributor.
Do not use the force adjustments to compensate for a binding or sticking garage doors. Excessive
force will interfere with the proper operation of the Safety Reverse System or damage the garage
door.
This unit should not be installed in a damp or wet space.
Disengage all existing garage door locks to avoid damage to garage door.
Install the lighted door Control Box (or any additional Push Buttons) in a location where the garage
door is visible, but out of the reach of children. Do not allow children to operate push button(s) or
remote control(s). Serious personal injury from a closing garage door may result from misuse of
the operator.
CAUTION:
Activate operator only when the door is in full view, free of obstructions and
operator
is properly adjusted. No one should enter or leave the garage while the
door is in
motion. Do not allow children to play near the door.
Disconnect electric power to the garage door operator before making repairs or
removing covers.
IMPORTANT:
Fix a caution label to the rear of the garage door as a reminder of safe
operating procedures.
