ONCE EVERY

YEAR:

Keep door rollers, hinges,

and bearings properly lubricated by following recommended door instructions or contacting a door service company in your area.

AS NEEDED:

Readjust opener travel limits and force settings as necessary

due to cold weather, normal wear of door, etc.

The convenient adjustment instruction label on the opener

can be used for any periodic adjustments needed.

Check and readjust belt tension, if necessary, in the unlikely event that it loses its proper tension during the life of the opener.
