IMPORTANT! THE OPENER FORCE
SETTINGS MUST BE ADJUSTED
ACCORDING TO THE MANUFACTURER’S
INSTRUCTIONS. SOME LIGHTER WEIGHT
DOORS ARE DESIGNED TO OPERATE WITH
A SINGLE COUNTER-BALANCE SPRING. IF
THAT COUNTER-BALANCE SPRING
BREAKS AND THE OPENER’S FORCE
SETTINGS ARE NOT ADJUSTED
ACCORDING TO THE MANUFACTURER’S
SPECIFICATIONS, THE OPENER MAY THEN
HAVE THE CAPABILITY OF LIFTING THE
DOOR TO THE OPEN POSITION, DESPITE
THE BROKEN COUNTER-BALANCE
SPRING. THIS SCENARIO WILL CAUSE THE
COUNTER-BALANCE CABLES TO GO
SLACK AND ENGAGE THE
TORQUEMASTER
®
PLUS SAFETY SYSTEM.
IF A PERSON IS UNAWARE OF THE SLACK
CABLES AND THE ENGAGED
TORQUEMASTER
®
PLUS SAFETY SYSTEM
AND ACTIVATES THE MIS-ADJUSTED
OPENER, DAMAGE WILL LIKELY OCCUR TO
THE DOOR AND OPENER. THE POTENTIAL
ALSO EXISTS THAT THE PERSON
ACTIVATING THE OPENER UNDER THIS
SCENARIO COULD BE SEVERELY INJURED.
READ THESE INSTRUCTIONS CAREFULLY
BEFORE ATTEMPTING TO RESET THE
TORQUEMASTER
®
PLUS SYSTEM. IF IN
QUESTION ABOUT ANY OF THE
PROCEDURES, DO NOT PERFORM THE
WORK. INSTEAD, HAVE A TRAINED DOOR
SYSTEMS TECHNICIAN RESET THE
SYSTEM.
TO AVOID SEVERE OR FATAL INJURY, DO
NOT STAND OR WALK UNDER A MOVING
DOOR, OR PERMIT ANYONE TO STAND OR
WALK UNDER AN ELECTRICALLY
OPERATED DOOR
This door is equipped with a
TorqueMaster
®
Plus system, a safety
feature which prevents the door from
rapidly descending in case of spring
failure or forceful manual operation. If the
system engages with the door in the open
position, personal items that are left
unattended in the garage or home are at
risk to theft. To insure the safekeeping of
these items, close the garage door.
Typical signs of an engaged system:
Single spring system: Visually inspect
the TorqueMaster
®
Plus right hand end
bracket to confirm that the system has
engaged (see illustration). If the system is
engaged then the door will not close. If
the opener force settings were properly
set during the initial installation, the door
will not open. If the opener can physically
overcome the weight of the door and lift it
to the open position, then the
counterbalance cables will be slack.
