make repairs to cables, spring and other hardware before installing the opener.
•

Product Features
1.
Motor: Permanently lubricated, thermally protected, heavy-duty motor with automatic reset.
2.
Opener Lights: Turn on and off automatically with 2-1/2 minutes illumination for your safety and convenience.
3.
Sensing System: A built-in sensing system detects obstructions during door operation. If in the Downward (close)
travel mode, the Opener will sense an obstruction and reverse to the full open position. In the Open mode, the
Opener will stop. In both cases the light will start flashing and continue to flash for 60 seconds. Since all doors are
different, the Sensing System has independent adjustments for customising the level of force for the normal
opening and closing of specific door.
4.
Close Limit Switch: In winter months it’s common for small pieces of ice or packed snow to be trapped under the
door. Ground swelling may also affect the close limit setting of the Opener. The Close Limit Switch overrides the
Sensing System under the last 2.5cm of closing travel and prevents the door from reversing if it encounters an
obstruction at this point.
5.
Emergency Release: A pull cord allows manual disconnect and operation of door during power failure. Unit will
automatically reconnect when release is reset (the trolley release lever is snapped back to its original position),
power is restored and Opener is activated.
6.
Mechanical Door Lock: When properly adjusted, opener locks door in closed position preventing unwanted entry.
7.
Easy Connect Continuous Monitor Entrapment System: System allows quick and easy installation of Safety Door
Reversing System, (Photo Eye system Optional) while control circuitry monitors these devices continuously for
proper operation.
8.
Constant Contact to Close: For utmost safety if Photo Eye system (Optional) fails, constant contact of mechanical
push button is necessary to close door. In this mode of operation, a radio transmitter cannot be used to close door.
9.
Momentary Contact to Close: Single touch to Radio Transmitter or Wall Button will allow door to close as long as
Photo eye system (Optional) is operational.
10.
Safety Door Reversing System (Photo eye system Optional): An invisible infra-red beam of light guards the door
opening and reverses a downward moving door if the beam is broken by a stationary or moving object. If the beam
is broken, the opener light will flash for 30 seconds. Motor control circuitry constantly monitors the Photo Eye
system for proper operation.
11.
Digital Radio Control: Built in allowing over 1.6 million private codes, easily selected without use of tools. Bright
transmitter LED indicates operation and monitors battery condition.

Door Test
Before beginning installation of the operator please complete the following test to insure that your door is balanced and
in good working condition. A poorly balanced door could cause severe personal injury and damage to the opener.
Always have a qualified garage door service person make any needed adjustments and/or repairs to your door before
proceeding with installation.
1.
Raise and lower the door and check closely for areas of
sticking and binding. Check for loose hinges, wobbly
rollers, frayed cables and damaged or broken springs.
Contact a qualified garage door service person to make
the necessary adjustments.
2.
Lift the door approximately halfway. When released, the
door should stay in that position. If door pulls open or
moves downward, the spring mechanism is not
adjusted properly. Contact a qualified garage door
service person to make the necessary adjustments.
3.
When properly installed and adjusted the door will
remain clear of the opening, when allowed to rest at its
natural full open position. If door drifts up or down the
door is not adjusted properly. Contact a qualified
garage door service person to make the necessary
adjustments.
Do Not Install the Opener Until These
Adjustments and Repairs Have Been Made.

Assembly
Note: The Tube/Chain Speed Unit Assembly with Trolley and Front Idler Sprocket is packaged separately from the
Power Head Unit. Refer to Page 7 for package contents and identification.
Step 1.
Place Power Head Unit on discarded packing material/
cardboard.
Step 2.
Remove the sprocket cover, see figure 7A, and position
the trolley on the drive tube as illustrated figure 7B.
Step 3.
Roll out the chain assembly carefully to prevent tangling.
Connect the trolley release rod to the connecting link
through the drive trolley, but do not tighten. (Figure 7C)
Wrap the chain around the drive sprockets on the drive
unit ensuring the chain engages the teeth on the sprocket.
Extend the chain along the other side of the tube and
around the return pulley.
Ensure the trolley has not moved from the point as
indicated in the diagram (Figure 7B).
Now install the connecting link to the trolley release rod as
illustrated. (Figure 7C).
Note: during the assembly the trolley release rod is
actually engaged in the trolley. It is shown here removed
for the sake of clarity.
Step 4.
Tension the chain by turning the adjusting nut. Hold the
trolley release rod and the connecting link to prevent from
turning. (Figure 7C).
The tension should be correct when the chain has a sag of
between 6 mm and 12 mm (Figure 7D).
Tighten lock nut against the connecting link, to lock
adjustment into place (Figure 7C)
Note:
The chain and its supporting equipment may stretch after a
period of time. The chain should be re-tightened after the
first three months’ use, and thereafter as required.
Step 5.
Re-check all nuts for tightness.
Assembly is now completed. You are ready to begin installation of the opener.
