This manual contains IMPORTANT SAFETY information
DO NOT PROCEED WITH THE INSTALLATION BEFORE READING THOROUGHLY
START BY READING THESE IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING
•Failureto complywiththe following instructionsmayresultin seriouspersonal injuryor property damage.
• Read and follow all instructions carefully.
• The garage door opener is designed and tested to offer safe service provided it is installed and
operated in strict accordance with the instructions in this manual.
These safety alert symbols mean WARNING : A possible risk to personal safety or
property damage exists.
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 40 mm obstacle placed on the floor.
Failure to properly adjust the opener may result in
serious personal injury from a closing garage
door. Repeat the test once a month and make
any necessary adjustments.
The opener must not be used on a wicket
door (door within a door).
TM
The Protector System
must be used for all
installations where the closing force as
measured on the bottom of the door is over
400 N (40 kgf). 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.
This appliance is not intended for use by persons
(including children) with reduced physical, sensory
Do not allow children to play near the door,
or with door controls.
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.
Automatic Drive - Keep away from the area of
the door as it may operate unexpectedly.
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.
This opener should not be installed in a damp
or wet space exposed to weather.
NOTE: If your garage has no service entrance door, a CM1702 or DMK1 outside quick release must be installed.
This accessory allows manual operation of the garage door from outside in case of power failure.

DOOR REQUIREMENTS
The maximum allowable door height for both models is 4.5 m. With a maximum curtain area of 16.5 m²* for
QuietDrive (MR650EVO) & 18 m²* for SilentDrive (MR850EVO) (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 kgf). Door axle diameter must not exceed 35 mm.
Direct clamping
method
Independent
clamping method
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 kgf 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.
SAFETY CHECK!

step
• 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.

• Thread one end of the rope through the hole in the top
of the red release handle so that “NOTICE” reads
right side up as shown.
• Secure with an overhand knot at least 25 mm from the
end of the rope to prevent slipping.
• Thread the other end of the rope through the loop of
the manual release cable.
• Adjust rope length so the handle (when installed) will
be no higher than 1.8 m above the floor. Secure with
an overhand knot. If the door is greater than 2.5 m in
height the release cord extension kit accessory is
required.
NOTE: Final adjustment of handle height should be
completed after the opener is installed. If it is
necessary to cut the rope, heat seal the cut end to
prevent unravelling.

process as serious injury can occur.
NOTE: The opener can be installed on either side
of the door. The following instructions are for
RIGHT HAND INSTALLATIONS (as illustrated i.e.
inside the garage looking out). For left hand
installations, reverse the instruction terminology
(eg LEFT for RIGHT etc).
Preparation:
• Place the opener in manual release mode (refer
section 8).
• Open the roller door fully. For safety, tie a rope
around the door.

bracket on the left hand side (non opener side) are
securely fastened.
• Support the door with a door stand or similar device
to safely support the door.
• Mark the position of the door shaft on the right hand
door bracket (for reassembly purposes).
• While the door is supported, remove the right hand
axle U-Bolt and door mounting bracket from the wall.
Install the opener:
• Slide the opener over the door axle and engage the
drive legs into the door drum wheel, either side of a
spoke. Extensions may be necessary (refer section
10).

door bracket needs to be relocated due to opener
width, refer section 3.
• Clamp the opener on the door axle and door bracket
in the marked position using the clamp assembly
supplied (tighten to 25 – 28 Nm).
• If side room exceeds 95mm clamp independently to
the door axle as illustrated in section 3.
• Remove all ropes and the support stand.
• Check the operation of the door in manual mode by
raising and lowering by hand. It should operate
smoothly without sticking or binding. The disengage
handle should already be attached less than 1.8m
above the floor (refer section 7).
Connect the power:
• Position the power cable away from the door curtain
and any moving parts.
• Plug the opener into a nearby power point and turn
ON.
