open position .

under the door path.
3. Activate the door to the closed position with the
wallstation; upon contacting a solid object, the door will stop, then reverse direction within two seconds and
travel to the full open position.
If the door does not respond to the required tests, remove 2 x 4 and repeat install routine making sure the
door is in the fully closed position prior to activation. If problem persists contact Wayne Dalton Customer
