 Disconnect battery pack and unplug the garage door
opener before making any adjustments, changing

points and moving parts. Following this rule will reduce
the risk of electric shock or fire.
 Check damaged parts. Before further use of the garage
door opener, a belt, pulley, or other part that is damaged
should be carefully checked to determine that it will
operate properly and perform its intended function.
Check for alignment of moving parts, binding of moving

the manufacturer. Following this rule will reduce the risk
of shock, fire, or serious injury.
 When servicing a product, use only identical replacement
parts. Follow instructions in the Maintenance section of
this manual. Use of unauthorized parts or failure to follow
Maintenance instructions may create a risk of injury.
 Never attempt to loosen, adjust, or remove the door
springs (torsion spring and/or extension spring), door
spring components, or any surfaces to which these items
are secured. These items are under extreme tension and
any such alteration could result in death, serious personal
injury, and/or property damage.
 Servicing of garage doors, door springs (torsion and/or
extension springs), and door spring components should
be performed only by a qualified service person.
 To prevent SERIOUS INJURY or DEATH, DO NOT open
garage door if fire is present, unless you must escape
through it. CALL 911 or the fire department. Opening the
garage door will introduce fresh air and may cause fire to
spread rapidly.
