Operation of Your Opener

WARNING

Weak or broken springs could allow an open door to fall (either rapidly or unexpectedly), resulting in serious injury, death or property damage. If possible, use the manual release rope and handle only when the door is fully closed.

Activate the opener with any of the following devices:

1.The Door Control. Hold push button down until the door starts to move.

2.A Remote Control Transmitter. Hold push button down until the door starts to move.

3.The Outside Keylock or Keyless Entry Accessories.

When the opener is activated:

1.If open, the door will close. If closed, the door will open.

2.If closing, the door will reverse.

3.If opening, the door will stop (allowing space for entry and exit of pets and for fresh air).

4.If the door has been stopped in a partially open position, it will close.

5.If obstructed while closing, the door will reverse.

6.If obstructed while opening, the door will stop.

7.With the safety reversing sensor installed and correctly aligned, the garage door will reverse in the closing cycle when the invisible beam is broken. If fully open, the door will not close when the beam is broken. The sensor has no effect in the opening cycle.

If the sensor is not installed, or is not aligned correctly, the door won't close from a remote control transmitter. You can close the door with the Door Control, however, if you press and hold the push button until down travel is complete. If you release the push button too soon, the door will reverse.

The opener light will blink for 5 seconds when the safety reversing sensor is obstructed.

The opener light will turn on under the following conditions: When the opener is initially plugged in; when the power is interrupted and when the opener is activated. It will turn off automatically after 4-1/2 minutes. Bulb size is 75 watts maximum.

To open the door manually:

The door should be fully closed if possible. Pull down sharply on the red manual release handle and lift the door manually. To reconnect the door to the opener, press the Door Control push button.

The lockout feature prevents the trolley from reconnecting automatically. Pull the manual release handle down and back (toward the opener). The door can then be raised and lowered manually as often as necessary. To disengage the lockout feature, pull the manual release handle straight down. The trolley will reconnect on the next UP or DOWN operation.
