10.Safety reversal system MUST be tested every month. Garage door MUST reverse on contact with 40mm high object on the floor.

11.ALWAYS KEEP GARAGE DOOR PROPERLY BALANCED (see page 3). An improperly balanced door may not reverse when required and could result in severe injury or death.

13.ALWAYS disconnect electric power to garage door opener before making any repairs or removing covers.

14.The force, as measured on the closing edge ot the door, should not exceed 400N (40kg). If the closing force is more than 400N, a Safety Infrared Reversing Sensor must be installed.
