IMPORTANT INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING - To reduce the risk of severe injury or death:
1. READ AND FOLLOW ALL INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS.
2. Install only on a properly operating and balanced door. A door that is operating improperly
could cause severe injury. Have qualified service personnel make repairs to cables, spring
assemblies, and other hardware before installing the operator.
3. Remove all pull ropes and remove, or make inoperative, all locks (unless mechanically and/or
electrically interlocked to the power unit) that are connected to the door before installing the
operator.
4. Install the door operator at least 8 feet or more above the floor if the operator has exposed
moving parts.
5. Do not connect the door operator to the source of power until instructed to do so.
6. Locate the control station: (a) within sight of the door, (b) at a minimum height of 5 feet so
small children cannot reach it, and (c) away from all moving parts of the door.
7. Install the Entrapment Warning Placard next to the control station in a prominent location.
8. For products having a manual release, instruct the end user on the operation of the manual
release.
9. The door is under extreme spring tension. Have qualified door mechanics make all necessary
adjustments and repairs to the door.
10. Make sure the available power supply to be connected to the operator is of the same voltage,
frequency, phase and wattage as indicated on the nameplate of the operator.
11. Read and understand the wiring diagram of the operator and the control station
(open-close-stop push button), and any other equipment to be connected to the operator.
12. To avoid damage to the door and operator, make all door locks inoperative. Secure locks in the
unlocked position, or install external electrical interlocks to prevent operation with the locks
engaged.
13. Always disconnect power whenever installing or servicing the door operator or door.
14. All wiring is to comply with National Electrical Code (NEC) and local code requirements.
15. Any change in mounting position may result in change of operator rotation and consequently
in change of control functions. Consult factory for any changes.
16. Hand Chain must be kept inside plastic bag when operating electrically.
