CARE OF THE OPENER
When properly installed, opener will provide high performance
with a minimum of maintenance. The opener does not require
additional lubrication.
Most complaints of unsatisfactory opener operation can be
traced to problems with the door Itself. When operated
manually, a properly balanced door will stay in any point of
travel while being supported entirely by its springs.
THE OPENER IS NOT INTENDED TO CORRECT ANY
PROBLEMS THAT ARE CAUSED BY AN UNBALANCED OR
BINDING DOOR, BROKEN DOOR SPRINGS OR BY FAULTY
DOOR HARDWARE.
LIMIT AND FORCE ADJUSTMENTS: These acrjuslments
must be chected and properly set when opener is installed.
Only a screwdriver is required. Page 17 refers to the limit and
force adjustments. Follow instructions carefully,
REPEAT SAFETY REVERSE TEST AFTER ANY ADUST-
MEMT OF FORCE AND/OR LIMITS. Weather conditions
may cause'some minor changes in door operation requir
ing some readjustments, particularly during the first year

pg. 18). GARAGE DOOR MUST REVERSE ON CONTACT
WITH A ONE-INCH OBSTACLE PLACED ON THE FLOOR.
FAILURE TO PROPERLY ADJUST OPENER MAY RESULT
IN SERIOUS PERSONAL INJURY FROM A CLOSING
GARAGE DOOR.
CHAIN TENSION ADJUSTMENT: After installation of the
opener and adjustment of forces and limits, the chain may
appear loose. This is normal. To check the chain tension:
disconnect the trolley by pulling the red emergengy handle.
If the chain returns to the position described and illustrated
in Step 5 page 9, DO NOT make ANY further adjustments,
TRANSMITTER: The 3-funclion transmitter will operate more

may also be used to operate other 53000 and/or53000SR
Series devices. The standard transmitter may be secured to
car sun visor with clip provided. Additional transmitters can
be purchased at any time. Refer to Accessories on page 4,
Any new transmitters must be set to the same code as the
