ADJUSTMENT STEP 3

Test Safety Reverse System

PROCEDURE: Place a one-inch obstacle on the floor under the garage door. Operate door in DOWN direction. The door MUST reverse on the obstruction.

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

NOTE: Make sure limit adjustments do not force the door arm beyond a straight up and down position. See the Illustration on Page 18/19.

When the door reverses on the one-inch obstacle, remove the obstruction and run the opener through a complete travel cycle

Door MUST NOT reverse in closed position. Repeat Adjustment Steps 1, 2 and 3 if necessary.

THE SAFETY REVERSE SYSTEM TEST IS IMPORTANT. GARAGE DOOR MUST REVERSE ON CONTACT WITH A ONE-INCH

OBSTACLE PLACED ON THE FLOOR. FAILURE TO PROPERLY ADJUST OPENER MAY RESULT IN SERIOUS PERSONAL INJURY FROM A CLOSING GARAGE DOOR. REPEAT TEST ONCE A MONTH AND ADJSUT AS NEEDED.

REPEAT ADJUSTMENT STEP 3 AFTER:

• EACH ADJUSTMENT OF DOOR ARM LENGTH, CLOSE

FORCE OR DOWN LIMIT.

• ANY REPAIR OR ADJUSTMENT OF GARAGE DOOR

(INCLUDING SPRINGS AND HARDWARE).

• ANY REPAIR OR BUCKLING OF THE GARAGE FLOOR.

• ANY REPAIR OR ADJUSTMENT OF THE GARAGE

DOOR OPENER.

THE PROTECTOR SYSTEM

Installation of Optional Safety Feature

After opener has been installed and adjusted, THE PROTECTOR SYSTEM accessory can be installed.

Instructions are included with this optional device.

THE PROTECTOR SYSTEM PROVIDES AN ADDITIONAL MEASURE OF SAFETY AGAINST A SMALL CHILD BEING CAUGHT UNDER A GARAGE DOOR. It uses an Invisible beam which, when broken by an obstruction, causes a closing door to open and prevents an open door from closing. STRONGLY RECOMMENDED FOR HOMEOWNERS WITH YOUNG CHILDREN.
