START BY READING THESE IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

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) 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 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.
KEEP THESE INSTRUCTIONS

WARNING

• Failure to comply with the following instructions may result in serious injury or 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.

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.

Keep the garage door balancedDo 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.

This opener should not be installed in a damp
or wet space exposed to weather
