CARE OF YOUR OPENER
LIMIT AND FORCE ADJUSTMENTS:
Weather conditions may cause
some minor changes in door
operation requiring some re-
adjustments, particularly during
the first year of operation.
Pages 24 and 25 refer to the
limit and force adjustments.
Only a screwdriver is required.
Follow the instructions carefully.
Repeat the safety reverse
test (Adjustment Step 3, page 26) after any
adjustment of limits or force.
THE REMOTE CONTROL BATTERY
The lithium battery should produce power for
up to 5 years. To replace battery, use the
visor clip or screwdriver blade to pry
open the case as shown. Insert
battery positive side up.
Dispose of old battery properly.

Having a Problem?

1. The opener doesn't operate from either the
Door Control or the remote control:
• Does the opener have electric power? Plug a lamp
into the outlet. If it doesn't light, check the fuse box
or the circuit breaker. (Some outlets are controlled
by a wall switch.)
• Have you disabled all door locks? Review
installation instruction warnings on page 7.
• Is there a build-up of ice or snow under the door?
The door may be frozen to the ground. Remove
any restriction.
• The garage door spring may be broken. Have it
replaced.
• Repeated operation may have tripped the overload
protector in the motor. Wait 15 minutes and try
again.
2. Opener operates from the remote, but not from
the Door Control:
• Is the door control lit? If not, reverse the wires. If
the opener runs, check for a faulty wire connection
at the door control, a short under the staples, or a
broken wire.
• Are the wiring connections correct? Review
Installation Step 6, page 14.
