INSTALLATION STEP 7

Install the Lights

• 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 up to a 100 watt maximum light bulb in each

socket. 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.

• If the bulbs burn out prematurely due to vibration,

replace with a Garage Door Opener bulb.

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 25 mm 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 1.8 m above

the floor. Secure with an overhand knot.

Optional installation: As an added security option

a padlock may be installed on the trolley release
arm. To utilize this feature you must drill a hole
4.5 mm - 8 mm on the dimple which is located on
the trolley release arm. Install the padlock. When
using this feature the emergency release will not
work until the padlock is removed.

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 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.
