After the Installation
1.
Never permit children to play with or operate the garage door opener either from the wall station or the remote
controls. Keep radio transmitter locked in the car. Misuse of the push button or transmitter could result in serious
injury or even death.
2. Open the garage door with the remote controls only when the garage door is fully visible to you and clear of all
obstructions. The garage door should be kept in sight until it is completely open or closed and you are certain that the
garage door opener has shut off.
3. Attempting to exit the garage through the garage door opening, while the door is in motion, is a very dangerous
activity that could result in serious injury or even death.
4. Children and pets should always be clear of the door opening while the garage door is in motion.
5. Check the safety reverse mechanism at least once a month to make sure that it will reverse with the minimum amount
of force
.
Also check to be sure that the door will reverse within 100 mm of the floor. See page 16.
6. Check the manual operation of your garage door at least every 90 days to be sure that it is operating smoothly and
does not bind or stick. Tighten all bolts on the door and visually check all hardware including springs for wear of
damage. Caution: If service is needed contact your local garage door service person.
7. Do not decrease the safety reversing sensitivity mechanism to overcome a damaged or poorly operating door. This
will adversely affect the operation of the safety reverse mechanism, which could result in damage to the door,
personal injury or even death.
Caution:
Never operate the door opener if the reversing mechanism is not functioning properly.
8. Whenever possible, the manual disconnect should only be used when the door is fully closed. Caution: Extreme care
must be taken whenever the disconnect cord is pulled with the door partially open. Weak or broken springs may allow
the door to fall rapidly resulting in property damage, personal injury or death. If a broken spring is evident, contact
your local garage door service person immediately before disconnecting the door from the opener. Never attempt
servicing a broken spring.
9. Always disconnect electrical power supply to the opener when performing any maintenance or service to the opener
or garage door. Failure to do so could result in electrical shock, property damage, personal injury or death.
10. If any damage to any mechanical or structural component of the opener is observed, discontinue use and contact
your local garage door service person immediately.
