Limit and Force Adjustment Control
Weather conditions may cause some minor
changes in door operation requiring some
re-adjustments, particularly during the first
year of operation.
Pages 21 and 22 refer to the limit and force
adjustments. Only a screwdriver is required.
Follow the instructions carefully.
Repeat the safety reverse test (page 23) after
any adjustment of limits or force.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONSTo 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 a 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 23. The garage door
MUST

with a one-inch object (or a 2x4 board laid flat) placed on the floor. If an adjustment is made to
either the force or the limit of travel, both adjustments may be needed 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 from the garage door opener before making any repairs or removing
the covers.
