  • Page 2 BEFORE GETTING STARTED... (1) If the minimum headroom above the garage door is less than 35 mm (see page 4) you need a door-arm extension. The operator then must be mounted in the rear of your garage. (2) If your garage-door is higher than 2.25m a C-rail extension-piece is required. Otherwise the garage-door will not open completely.
  • Page 3 MOUNTING Before fitting the operator to the ceiling we recommend you detach the motor- head unit; mounting the C-rail will then be easier. You will find the instructions on how to detach the motor-head on page 4. Measure the distance between the ceiling and the highest point reached by the garage door (1).
  • Page 4: Connecting The Battery

    CONNECTING THE BATTERY To prevent the battery from discharging while in stock the Solar FRI is delivered with one disconnected battery cable. To use the operator this cable must first be plugged onto the open battery connector (please refer to the sketches aside) - or else the operator will not work.
  • Page 5: Limit Switch Setting

    LIMIT SWITCH SETTING Your garage door opener automatically stops when one of the red limit-switch actuators trips a limit-switch (in either CLOSING or OPENING direction). Adjust the limit-switches by hand. OPENING direction Please set the limit-switch actuator for the OPENING direction so that the door comes to a halt about 30 mm (1.2") before its final resting position.
  • Page 6 THE SOLAR PANEL Together with the Solar FR I you receive a solar panel and a fixing-bracket (in 2 parts). The panel transforms solar energy into electricity which is used to recharge the batteries. With a supply of 7 Watts the panel is sufficient for the average day light all year for most European countries.
  • Page 7: Force Adjustment

    FORCE ADJUSTMENT The force needs to be adjusted separately for OPENING and CLOSING direction. To get the forces right you might need a couple of tries. Please take your time for these adjustments. You should not use more force than necessary to operate your door (danger of injuries)! Therefore please reduce both forces first.
