E:ADJUSTMENTS / IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

Adjustment #3: Obstruction Sensing (Closing Direction) cont.

When the door comes into contact with a 2” x 4” laid flat on the garage floor and stops intends of reversing, move the close limit stop away from the power head unit. It is advised that you move the close limit stop one link at a time and run opener through another close cycle, until the door reverses when it comes into contact with the 2” x 4”.

Adjustment #4: Positive Mechanical Lock Adjustment

110057-1

 

 

 

 

 

The garage door opener is designed with an automatic mechanical

 

 

 

“Latch”

locking system. This lock secures the door in the fully closed

 

 

 

position.

 

 

 

To adjust, activate your opener and allow the door to go to its

 

 

 

fully closed position. Loosen the two screws on the rail stop and

 

 

 

move it behind behind the chain latch assembly with a gap of 1/2”

 

 

 

between “stop” and “latch”.

 

 

 

Checking the Travel Timer

 

 

 

Your opener is shipped with the jumper disconnected, allowing the operator to run continuously for up to 29 seconds, then stop in the Open cycle or reverse in the closing cycle.

If your unit will run for only 17 seconds, the operator has mistakenly been shipped with the jumper intact on the control board (perhaps the control board was replaced with a board that still has the jumper installed). On all doors having over 9 feet of travel, it is necessary to cut the run timer jumper on the motor control board to allow the opener to run for 29 seconds. Disconnect the power from the opener before removing cover and cutting the jumper. MAKE SURE YOU DISCONNECT THE POWER BEFORE CUTTING THE JUMPER. THE RUN TIMER WILL NOT CHANGE IF THE JUMPER IS CUT WITH THE POWER CONNECTED.

This jumper is located under operator cover on the control board, as illustrated.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

 

 

 

 

 

WARNING

TO REDUCE THE RISK OF SEVERE INJURY OR

 

 

DEATH, READ AND FOLLOW ALL INSTRUCTIONS!

Ensure authorized personnel only operate the door. NEVER let children operate or play with door controls. Keep the Remote Control away from children.

ALWAYS keep a moving door in sight and keep people and objects away from the door area until the door is completely closed. NO ONE SHOULD CROSS THE PATH OF A MOVING DOOR.

TEST THE DOOR OPENER MONTHLY. The door MUST reverse upon contact with a 1-1/2” high object (or a 2 X 4 board laid flat) on the floor. After adjusting the sensitivity or the limit of travel, ALWAYS RETEST the Opener. Failure to ADJUST THE OPENER PROPERLY may result in SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH.

If possible, USE THE MANUAL RELEASE only when the door is closed. Use caution when using the Release with the door open. WEAK OR BROKEN SPRINGS MAY ALLOW THE DOOR TO CLOSE RAPIDLY, CAUSING SEVERE INJURY OR DEATH.

KEEP THE GARAGE DOOR PROPERLY BALANCED. See the door owner's manual. An improperly balanced door MAY CAUSE SEVERE INJURY OR DEATH. Have a QUALIFIED SERVICE PERSON MAKE REPAIRS TO CABLES, SPRING ASSEMBLIES AND OTHER HARDWARE.
