Adjustments

Without a properly installed safety reversal system, persons (particularly small children) could be SERIOUSLY INJURED or KILLED by a closing garage door.

Incorrect adjustment of garage door travel limits will interfere with proper operation of safety reversal system.

After ANY adjustments are made, the safety reversal system MUST be tested. Door MUST reverse on contact with 1-1/2" (3.8 cm) high object (or 2x4 laid flat) on floor.

Tip: If anything interferes with the door’s upward travel it will stop. If anything interferes with the door’s downward travel, it will reverse.

INTRODUCTION

Your garage door opener is designed with

 

 

electronic controls to make setup and

 

 

adjustments easy. The adjustments allow

 

 

you to program where the door will stop in

UP (Open)

DOWN (Close)

the open (UP) and close (DOWN) position.

 

 

The electronic controls sense the amount

 

 

of force required to open and close the

 

 

door. The force is adjusted automatically

 

 

when you program the travel and cannot be

 

 

changed.

 

 

To prevent damage to vehicles, be sure fully open door provides adequate clearance.

To watch a short instructional video on programming your new garage door opener use your smartphone to read the QR Code below:

ONE-PIECE DOORS ONLY

When setting the UP travel for a one-piece door ensure that the door does not slant backwards when fully open (UP). If the door is slanted backwards this will cause unnecessary bucking and/or jerking when the door is opening or closing.

PROGRAMMING BUTTONS

The programming buttons are located on the left side panel of the garage door opener and are used to program the travel.
