3 Only install the RDO on a properly balanced and aligned, well functioning Garage Door. An
improperly balanced or malfunctioning Garage Door could cause serious injury. Have a
qualified person check and if required, make repairs to your Garage Door installing the
RDO. As a general rule,your Garage Door is deemed to be well balanced and aligned ifit
a. requires an equivalentamount of applied force to manually openor close and,
b. requiresno more than150N of applied force to either manuallyopen or closeand,
c. does not rise orfall more than100mm when stopped at any position betweenfully open or
fully closed positionsand,
d. doesnot rub onor make contact with any supporting orsurrounding structures.
4. Repairs to Garage Doors must only be carried out by technically qualified persons. Attempting
to repair the Garage Door without suitable technical qualification may result in severe personal
injury, death and/or propertydamage.
5. Remove or renderinoperative all existing locks and ropes priorto installation ofthe RDO.
6 The counter balance springs on sectional type doors be properly lubricated between all of
the coils with heavy automotive bearing grease. Failure to adequately lubricate the springs may
result in oneor more of the following symptoms;
a The springs willbecome rusty over time resulting in extraoperating friction between
the coils whichmay cause the RDO to malfunction.
b. Seasonal temperature changes may causethe Garage Door springs to expand and/or
contract. The resultant increase and/or decrease in operating friction may cause the RDO
to malfunction. Properly lubricating the springs will help to minimize the effect of seasonal
temperature changes inoperating friction of your Garage Door.
7. If possible, install the RDO at least 2 meters or more above the ground. Adjust the Manual
Release Cord sothat it hangs approximately 1.8 meters fromthe ground.
8 Do not connectthe RDO to the power source untilthis manual instructs you to do so.
9 The RDO must be connected to a general purpose 220V outlet which has
been installed bya qualified electrical contractor.
10. Locate the wallcontrol panel/push button;
a. within site of the Garage Door and,
b. at a minimum height of 1.5 meters above the ground so that it remains out of the reach of
small children and,
c. away from all moving parts of the door.
11. Install the EntrapmentWarning Label in a prominent position next to the wallcontrol button.
12 The Manual ReleaseInstruction Tag must remain attachedto the Manual Release Cord.
13 After installing and correctly adjusting the RDO, the Garage Door stop and reverse
direction when it comes into contact with a 35mm high solid object placed on the floor under the
Garage Door.
14 The correct function of the Safety Obstruction Reversing System should be checked on a
monthly basis. Make sure that the Garage Door reverses when it makes contact with an
obstruction.

IMPORTANT SAFETY RECOMMENDATIONS
15 Never use the RDO unless the Garage Door is in full view and free from objects such as cars,
children and/or adults.
16 Never allow childrento operate the RDO.
17. Never operate the RDO when children/persons are under or near the path of the door. Children

must
18. Never attempt to disengage the RDO to manual operation when there are children/persons or
and other objectsincluding motor vehicles under or near thepath of the Garage Door.
19. Never attempt toopen or close the Garage Door bypulling on theManual Release Cord.
20. Never attempt to make any repairs or remove covers from the RDO without first disconnecting
the power supplycord from main power supply.
21. For additional safety we strongly recommend the fitment of Safety Beams. Although the RDO
incorporates a pressure sensitive safety obstruction system, the addition of Safety Beams will
greatly enhance the operating safety of the Automatic Garage Door and provide additional
peace of mind. In some countries it is mandatory by law to fit Safety Beams. It is the sole
responsibility of theowner/installer to fit Safety Beams in thosecountries which so require.
22 Removal of the RDO's protective covers must only be performed by a technically qualified
person. Attempting to remove the protective covers or repair the RDO without suitable technical
qualification may resultin severe personal injury,death and/or property damage.
23. Always ensure thatthe Garage Door is fully open beforedriving into orout of the Garage.
24. Always ensure theGarage Door is fully closed before leavingthe driveway.
25. Adjustments to the Safety Obstruction Force settings must only be carried out by a technically
qualified person. Attempting to adjust the Safety Reverse Force setting without suitable
technical qualification mayresult in severe personal injury, death and/or propertydamage.
26. Keep hands and loose clothing clear of the Garage Door andProduct at all times.
27. In order for the Safety Obstruction Force System to function it must first encounter an
object/person on to which some force be exerted. Asa result the object/person/door may
suffer

MUST
DAMAGE OR INJURY.
The Safety Obstruction Force System is designed to work on STATIONARY objects only. If
the Garage Door encounters a moving object during an Open or Close Cycle, serious

Your RDO is comprised of 2 major individual components being, Drive Unit (top figure alongside) and
Control Box (bottom figure alongside). This section of the manual deals with the basic fitting
requirements which should be met you attempt to install your opener. Study them carefully to
ensure that your door andsurroundings are suitable for such an installation.
The recommended minimum and maximum door mounting bracket position as measured from the edge
of the garage door curtain is depicted in Fig.5. The ideal distance should be between 85~125mm as
indicated.
before
Important Note: The procedures outlined in this manual require a certain degree of technical and
mechanical skill. It is not recommended that your RDO be installed by a home handyman. The RDO
should always be installed, serviced and adjusted by a technically qualified person.
Important Notes:
The fixing distance may vary from garage door to garage door depending on the distance
thatthe garage door drum wheel has been set inside the garage door curtain.
If the door drum wheel has been set too deep inside the garage door curtain it is recommended
to fit an additional drum wheel closer to the edge of the curtain facilitating easier installation of
the RDO unit.
The installer should verify the correct distance by actually checking the measurement prior to
mounting or moving any garage door brackets.
