To test the safety reverse system:
25.The safety reverse system test is important. The garage door must reverse on contact with a 1-1/2”thick obstacle laid flat on the garage floor. Failure to properly adjust the Garage Door Opener may result in serious personal injury from a closing garage door. Repeat this test once a month and adjust as needed.
26.Place a 1-1/2” thick obstacle flat on the floor under the garage door. Operate the door in the down direction. The door must reverse on the obstruction. If the door stops on the obstruction, remove the obstruction and repeat the “Setting the Limits” section in this manual. Then repeat step #22.
27.When the garage door reverses on the 1-1/2” obstacle, remove the obstruction and run the Garage Door Opener through a complete travel cycle. The door must not reverse in the closed position. If it does, repeat the “Setting the Limits” and “Open- ing/Closing Force” sections in this manual. Then repeat step #22.
28.Finally, place about 40 pounds of weight at the center of the garage door to ensure that the door will not move up more than 20 inches when attempting to raise.
29.The Light Bulb will automatically illuminate when the garage door is activated and will shut off after three minutes with no control activity.
