Installation Step 7
Install the Light and the Lens
Install the lights
• Install a 75 watt maximum light bulb in the socket.
The light will turn ON and remain lit for
approximately 4-1/2 minutes when power is
connected. Then the light will turn OFF.
• If the bulb burns out prematurely due to vibration,
replace it with a standard neck "Garage Door
Opener" bulb.
Install the lens
• Apply slight pressure on the sides of the lens and
slide the tabs into the slots in the end panel.
• Reverse the procedure to remove the lens.
Installation Step 8
Attach the Emergency
Release Rope and Handle
• Thread one end of the rope through the hole in
the top of the red handle so "NOTICE" reads right
side up as shown. Secure with an overhand knot.
The knot should be at least 1" from the end of
the rope to prevent slipping.
• Thread the other end of the rope through the hole
in the release arm of the outer trolley.
• Adjust rope length so the handle is 6 feet above
the floor. Secure with an overhand knot .
If it is necessary to cut the rope, heat seal the
cut end with a match or lighter to prevent
unraveling.
Do NOT connect the power and operate the
opener at this time. The trolley will travel to the
full open position but will not return to the
close position until the sensor beam is
connected and properly aligned.
See Safety Reversing Sensor instructions
beginning on page 21.

WARNING
Do not use the red handle to pull the door open
or closed. The rope knot could become untied
and you could fall. Use the emergency release
only to disengage the trolley and, if possible,
only when the door is closed.
Garage doors are heavy. If the door is open
when the handle is pulled, the door could close
inadvertently if it is not properly balanced.
Serious injury may result to persons under the
door. Make sure the doorway is clear of
persons and obstructions before pulling handle
when door is open.
