6.5.1 Set the Limit Positions and adjust drive speed:
The Limit Positions can vary due to site conditions, such as uneven
ground. When setting the Close limit, ensure the position is when the
door makes first contact with the ground. Alternatively for the Open limit
the position should be at the height of the garage opening.
NOTE: The drive speed is set to the fastest setting by default. This may
not be suitable for larger doors.
a. Move the door to the half way position.
b. Engage the opener by pulling down on the manual release string until
a click sounds.
c. Switch power on and the BLUE LED on the BLUE CLOSE button will
start to flash.
WARNING! In setting the close limit position, do not
force the door into the floor with excessive force, as
this can interfere with the ease of operation of the
manual release mechanism.
AVERTISSEMENT! Ne pas forcer la porte contre le
sol lors du réglage de fin de course, car une force
excessive peut entraver le fonctionnement du système
de déclenchement manuel.
NOTE: If unhappy with the speed or travel limit setting, restart this
