SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

These safety alert symbols mean WARNING : A possible risk to personal safety or property damage exists.

Keep the 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 

examine 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 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 injury from a closing garage 

door. 

Repeat the test once a month and make any 

necessary adjustments.

This appliance should not be used by children or persons 

with reduced physical, sensory or mental capablities, or a 

lack of experience & 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.

WARNING!

 

Product includes wireless transmitters and 

wall controls that contain coin/button cell batteries. Keep 

wireless devices and batteries away from children. Battery 

can cause severe or fatal injuries in 2 hours or less if 

swallowed or placed inside any part of the body. Seek 

immediate medical attention if it is suspected that a coin/

button cell battery has been swallowed or placed inside 

any part of the body.

The opener must not be used on a wicket door (door 

within a door).
The Protector System

TM

 (IR Beams) 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.

Installers must ensure that the doors are installed in a 

compliant manner as per AS/NZS 60335-2-95.
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) i

n 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 buttons or transmitters. 

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 power cable is damaged, it must be replaced by the 

manufacturer, its service agent or similarly qualified 

persons in order to avoid hazard.

Disconnect electric power 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.
 

KEEP THESE INSTRUCTIONS

NOTE: If your garage has no service entrance door, we recommend an outside quick release must be installed. This 

accessory allows manual operation of the garage door from outside in case of power failure.
