Without a properly installed safety reversal
system, persons (particularly small
children) could be SERIOUSLY INJURED or
KILLED by a closing door.
• Incorrect adjustment of garage door travel limits
will interfere with proper operation of safety
reversal system.
• NEVER use force adjustments to compensate for a
binding or sticking garage door.
• After ANY adjustments are made, the safety
reversal system MUST be tested. Door MUST
reverse on contact with 40 mm high object laid flat
on floo
r.
To prevent damage to vehicles, be sure fully open
door provides adequate clearance.

Travel limits regulate the points at which the door will stop
when moving UP or DOWN. The travel limit buttons are located
under the access cover on the rear panel (figure 1).
NOTE: This opener uses a POSITION TAB attached to the chain
which activates a mechanical passpoint during the door travel.
The indicator LED will blink when this occurs. If the passpoint
is not activated during the door travel process, the travel limits
cannot be programmed.
