INSTALLATION STEP 7

Install the Light 

•   Press the release tabs on both sides of lens. Gently 

rotate lens back and downward until the lens hinge is 
in the fully open position. Do not remove the lens.

•   Install a 100 watt maximum light bulb in each socket. 

Light bulb size should be A19, standard neck only. 
The lights will turn ON and remain lit for approximately 
4-1/2 minutes when power is connected. Then the 
lights will turn OFF.

•   Reverse the procedure to close the lens.

•   Use A19, standard neck garage door opener bulbs for 

replacement.

NOTE:

 

Use only standard light bulbs. The use of short 

neck or speciality light bulbs may overheat the endpanel 
or light socket.

INSTALLATION STEP 8

Attach the Emergency Release Rope and 
Handle

•   Thread one end of the rope through the hole in the 

top of the red handle so “NOTICE” reads right side up 
as shown. Secure with an overhand knot at least 
1" (2.5 cm) from the end of the rope to prevent 
slipping.

•   Thread the other end of the rope through the hole in 

the release arm of the outer trolley.

•   Adjust rope length so the handle is 6 feet (1.83 m) 

above the fl oor. Ensure that the rope and handle clear 
the tops of all vehicles to avoid entanglement. Secure 
with an overhand knot.

NOTE: 

If it is necessary to cut the rope, heat seal the cut 

end with a match or lighter to prevent unraveling.

To prevent possible OVERHEATING of the endpanel or 
light socket: 
•  DO NOT use short neck or specialty light bulbs.
•  DO NOT use halogen bulbs. Use ONLY incandescent.
To prevent damage to the opener: 
• DO NOT use bulbs larger than 100W.
• ONLY use A19 size bulbs.

To prevent possible SERIOUS INJURY or DEATH from 
a falling garage door:
•  If possible, use emergency release handle to 

disengage trolley ONLY when garage door is 
CLOSED. Weak or broken springs or unbalanced 
door could result in an open door falling rapidly and/
or unexpectedly.

•  NEVER use emergency release handle unless garage 

doorway is clear of persons and obstructions.

•  NEVER use handle to pull door open or closed. If 

rope knot becomes untied, you could fall.
