Important Installation Instructions

In order to reduce the risk of serious injuries or death, please read and follow all instructions
provided.
1. Install only on a properly balanced door. An improperly balanced door has the potential
to inflict severe injury or cause damage to your opener. Have a qualified service person
make repairs to cables, spring assemblies, and other hardware before installing the
opener.
2. Remove all ropes and remove or make inoperative all locks connected to the garage
door before installing opener.
3. Where possible, install the opener 2.1 meters or more above the floor.
4. Do not connect the opener to source of power until instructed to do so (see page 11 -
Step 6).
5. Locate the wireless wall switch:
• Within sight of door
• At a minimum height of 1.5 meters so small children are not able to reach it
• Away from all moving parts of the door
6. Attach the Entrapment Warning Label next to the control button in a prominent
location. Use a staple gun to secure label to surfaces to which the adhesive will not
adhere. Attach the Emergency Release label. Attach the label on or next to the
emergency release.
7. This opener is to be used only with residential sectional or tilt doors.
8. To avoid damage to the garage door and opener, disable locks before installing and
operating the opener.
9. Prior to installation, check for and avoid any damaging of covered electrical, gas or
water lines in the walls or ceilings.
10. The garage ceiling must be designed so that a secure fastening of the opener is
guaranteed.
11. The installer must ensure that the opener is firmly attached to the garage structure. Do
not attach to gypsum or plaster ceilings.
12. The emergency release rope must be installed at an easy to reach height, approx. 1.8
meters above the floor. Check the emergency release to ensure operation with only
moderate force required.
13. Do not use the emergency release rope to open or close the door.
14. Check the function of all safety devices (light beam device, emergency release, and
automatic reversal).
15. After installing the opener, the door must reverse when it contacts a 40mm high object
(or a 50mm by 100mm board laid flat) on the floor.
16. The mechanical limitation device should be installed on the end of each horizontal rail
in order to avoid the door panels sliding out of the rail.
17. The installation and wiring must comply with local regulations.
Work safely! Always wear appropriate safety protection when using any tools. For
garages without a second access, an additional emergency release is necessary, which
prevents a possible lock out.
