IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING | WARNING |
To reduce the risk of severe injury or death to persons:
1.READ AND FOLLOW ALL INSTRUCTIONS.
2.Do not permit children either to operate or to play with the opener. Keep remote control in a location inaccessible to children.
3.Operate opener only when the door is in full view and free from any obstruction. Keep the door in sight until it is completely closed. NO ONE SHOULD CROSS THE PATH OF THE MOVING DOOR.
4.Check safety reversal system monthly. See page 30. The garage door MUST reverse on contact with a one inch object (or a 2x4 board laid flat) placed on the floor. If an adjustment is made to one of the controls (either force or limits of travel), the other control may need to be adjusted also, and the safety reversal system must be checked. Failure to properly adjust the opener may result in severe injury or death.
5.If possible, use the manual release only when the door is in a closed position. Caution should be taken whenever the disconnect cord is actuated with the door open. Weak or broken springs may cause the door to fall rapidly, causing injury or death to persons.
6.KEEP GARAGE DOORS PROPERLY BALANCED. See page 3. An improperly balanced door may not reverse when required and could result in severe injury or death. Repairs to cables, spring assemblies and other hardware must be made by a professional garage door person.
7.Disconnect the electric power to the garage door opener before making any repairs or removing the covers.
8.SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS.

Weather conditions may cause some minor changes in door operation requiring some re- adjustments, particularly during the first year of operation.
Pages 28 and 29 refer to the limit and force adjustments. Only a screwdriver is required. Follow the instructions carefully.
Repeat the safety reverse test (page 30) after any adjustment of limits or force.
The green test light will glow and the opener will operate when the remote control is activated, as long as there is adequate battery power.
If the test light is dim or off, replace the battery. Also check the test light if transmission range decreases.
The 12V battery should produce power for at least a year.
Dispose of your old battery properly.
