INSTALLATION STEP 7

Install the Light and Lens

INSTALL THE LIGHT
• Install a 75 watt maximum light bulb in the socket.
Light bulb size should be A19. The light will turn
ON and remain lit for approximately 4-1/2 minutes
when power is connected. Then the light will turn
OFF.
• Use A19, standard neck garage door opener bulb
for replacement.
NOTE: Use only standard light bulbs. The use of
short neck or speciality light bulbs may overheat the
endpanel or light socket.
INSTALL THE LENS
• Locate and loosen (approximately 1/8" (3 mm) the
two screws near top of opener front panel.
• Position lens against panel with slotted tabs
directly below screws. Slide lens up to seat tabs
behind screws.
• Snap bottom tabs of lens into panel slots.
• Retighten top panel screws to secure 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 at
least 1" (2.5 cm) 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 (1.83 m)
above the floor. Secure with an overhand knot.
NOTE: If it is necessary to cut the rope, heat seal
the cut end with a match or lighter to prevent
unraveling.
