Care of the Opener
When properly installed on a door which is in balance
and in good repair, opener will provide high
performance with a minimum of maintenance. The
opener does not require additional lubrication.
Most complaints of unsatisfactory opener operation
can be traced to problems with the door itself. When
operated manually, a properly balanced door will stay
in any point of travel while being supported entirely by
its springs.
THE OPENER IS NOT INTENDED TO CORRECT
ANY PROBLEMS THAT ARE CAUSED BY AN
UNBALANCED OR BINDING DOOR, BROKEN
DOOR SPRINGS OR BY FAULTY DOOR
HARDWARE.
LIMIT AND FORCE ADJUSTMENTS: These
adjustments must be checked and properly set when
opener is installed. Only a screwdriver is required.
Pages 20 and 21 refer to the limit and force
adjustments. Follow the instructions carefully.
REPEAT THE SAFETY REVERSE TEST AFTER
ANY ADJUSTMENT. Weather conditions may cause
some minor changes in the door operation, requiring
some readjustments, particularly during the first year
of operation.
THE SAFETY REVERSE SYSTEM IS IMPORTANT
(see page 22). GARAGE DOOR MUST REVERSE
ON CONTACT WITH A 25MM OBSTACLE PLACED
ON THE FLOOR. FAILURE TO PROPERLY
ADJUST OPENER MAY RESULT IN SERIOUS
PERSONAL INJURY FROM A CLOSING GARAGE
DOOR.
CHAIN TENSION ADJUSTMENT: After installation
of the opener and adjustment of forces and limits, the
chain may appear loose. This is normal.
TO CHECK THE CHAIN TENSION: Disconnect the
trolley by pulling the red manual release handle. If the
chain returns to the position described and illustrated
in Step 4 page 9, DO NOT make ANY further
adjustments.
REMOTE CONTROL TRANSMITTER: The portable
remote control may be secured to a car sun visor with
the clip provided. Additional remote transmitters can
be purchased at any time for use in all vehicles using
the garage. Refer to Accessories on page 5.
The opener must learn the code of any new remote
control. Page 23 explains how to program your
garage door opener and how to erase all codes if
required. Self service of your receiver and remote
control is not recommended. If service is needed, call
the toll-free number listed on the back page.
THE REMOTE CONTROL BATTERY
The lithium battery should produce power for up to
5 years. To replace battery, pry open case with visor
clip or screwdriver, as shown. Insert battery positive
side up.
Dispose of old battery properly.

MANUALLY OPERATE DOOR. If it is unbalanced or
binding, call professional garage door service.

CLOSES FULLY. Adjusts Limits and/or Force if
necessary.
