WARNING: Failure to comply with the following instructions may result in serious
personal injury or property damage.
• Read these instructions carefully and follow ALL instructions carefully
• The garage door opener is designed and tested to offer reasonable safe service provided it is installed and
operated in strict accordance with the instructions in this manual.
These safety alert symbols mean WARNING – a personal safety or property damage instruction. Read these
instructions carefully.
Warning: If your garage has no service entrance door, a 1702EV outside quick release must be installed. This accessory
allows manual operation of the garage door from outside in case of power failure.
Keep garage door balanced. Do not let the garage
door opener compensate for a binding or sticking
garage door. Sticking, binding or unbalanced doors
must be repaired before installing this opener.
Do not wear rings, watches or loose clothing while
installing or servicing a garage door opener. Wear
gloves and suitable protective clothing where appropriate.
Frequently examine the door installation, in particular
cable, springs and mountings for signs of wear, damage or imbalance. Do not use if repair or adjustment
is needed since springs and hardware are under
extreme tension and a fault
can cause serious personal injury.
To avoid serious personal injury from entanglement,
remove all ropes, chains and locks connected to the
garage door before installing the door opener.
Installation and wiring must be in compliance with
your local building and electrical codes.
The safety reverse system test is very important. Your
garage door MUST reverse on contact with a 50 mm
obstacle placed on the floor. Failure to properly adjust
the opener may result in serious personal injury from
a closing garage door.
The door should not go back, if it reaches the door
position „Closed“. If it still reverses both limits must
be reprogrammed.
OPENING TEST: Apply 20 kg to the middle of the
door. The door should not open completely.
Repeat the test once a month and make any necessary adjustments.
This appliance is not intended for use by persons
(including children) with reduced physical, sensory or
mental capablities, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless they have been given supervision or
instruction concerning use of the
appliance by a person responsible for their safety.

The opener must not be used on a wicket door (door
within a door).
The Protector SystemTMmust be used for all installations where the closing force as measured on the
bottom of the door is over 400 N (40 kg). Excessive
force will interfere with the proper operation of the
safety reverse system or damage the garage door.
After installation, ensure that the parts of the door do
not extend over public footpaths or roads.
Install the wireless wall control (or any additional wall
control) in a location where the garage door is visible
away from moving parts, at a height of at least 1.5 m
and out of the reach of children. Do not allow children
to operate push button(s) or transmitter(s). Serious
personal injury from a closing garage door may result
from misuse of the opener.
Permanently fasten the Warning Labels in prominent
places, adjacent to wall controls and manual release
mechanisms as a reminder of safe operating procedures.
Activate opener only when the door is in full view,
free of obstructions and the opener is properly adjusted. No one should enter or leave the garage while
the door is in motion.
Do not allow children to play near the door, or with
door controls.
If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced
by the manufacturer, its service agent or similarly
qualified persons in order to avoid hazard.
Disconnect electric power and battery to the garage
door opener before making repairs or removing covers.

DOOR REQUIREMENTS
The maximum allowable door height is 4.5 m with a maximum curtain area of 16.5 m²* (LM650EV) & 18 m²*
(LM850EV) (door height in metres multiplied by the width in metres). The door must be spring balanced. *The
Protector System™ (IR Beams) must be installed if the force at the edge of the closing door exceeds 400 N (40 kg).
For LM950EV the maximum allowable door height is 5.5m (light commercial door) with a maximum curtain area of
25m² (door height in metres multiplied by the width in metres). The door must be of continuous corrugated sheet construction, spring balanced & of a mass not exceeding 250kg. Door axle diameter must not exceed 35mm.
Ensure that there is at least 45 mm from the edge of the curtain to the edge of the bracket. If the roller door drum is
on the edge of the curtain or is a smaller diameter, additional clearance may be required. If the drum is more than 60
mm from the curtain edge or of a smaller diameter, an extension pole kit may be required (section 10).
Different drum and bracket types may result in the minimum side room clearance not being possible and
extension poles being required. Ensure there is a power point near the opener.

TESTING THE DOOR
Complete the following test to ensure your door is well
balanced, and not sticking or binding:
• Disable all locks and remove any ropes connected to the
garage door.
• Lift the door to about halfway and then release it.
The door should remain spring balanced.
• Raise and lower the door to determine if there are any
sticking or binding points (20 kg is the absolute maximum
allowable to raise or lower the door in any position).
• If your door does not hold in place or the door binds or
sticks, call a qualified door technician before installing the
opener.

INSTALLING THE STOP COLLAR
• Install the stop collar on the opposite end to where
the opener is to be installed.
• Fit the stop collar hard against the boss of the door drum.
Ensure the U-bolt holding the door shaft to the door
bracket is tightly secured.
5
INSTALLING THE WEIGHT BAR (optional)
• Place the weight in the centre of the door (as shown).
• Use a pencil to mark the two hole positions.
• If the door curtain does not have a handle you will need
to drill two 5.5 mm holes through the two marked
positions, then place the weight bar on the inside of the
door.
• Use the bolts, washers and nuts (provided) to
fasten the weight bar in place.
NOTE: If the door has a lifting handle, remove the handle,
nuts & bolts. Place weight bar over the handle holes,
insert extended bolts through the weight bar & fasten handle back in place.
