ADJUSTMENT STEP 3

Test the Safety Reversal System

TEST

With the door fully open, place a 1-1/2" (3.8 cm) board (or a 2x4 laid flat) on the floor, centered under the garage door.

Operate the door in the down direction. The door must reverse on striking the obstruction.

ADJUST

If the door stops on the obstruction, it is not traveling far enough in the down direction. Increase the DOWN limit by turning the DOWN limit adjustment screw counterclockwise 1/4 turn.

NOTE: On a sectional door, make sure limit adjustments do not force the door arm beyond a straight up and down position. See the illustration on page 25.

Repeat the test.

When the door reverses on the 1-1/2" (3.8 cm) board, remove the obstruction and run the opener through 3 or 4 complete travel cycles to test adjustment.

If the unit continues to fail the Safety Reverse Test, call for a trained door systems technician.

IMPORTANT SAFETY CHECK:

Test the Safety Reverse System after:

Each adjustment of door arm length, limits, or force controls.

Any repair to or adjustment of the garage door (including springs and hardware).

Any repair to or buckling of the garage floor.

Any repair to or adjustment of the opener.
