2 - Test the Safety Reversal System
Without a properly installed safety reversal system, persons
(particularly small children) could be SERIOUSLY INJURED
or KILLED by a closing garage door.
l Safety reversal system MUST be tested every month.
l After ANY adjustments are made, the safety reversal
system MUST be tested. Door MUST reverse on contact
with 1-1/2" (3.8 cm) high object (or 2x4 laid flat) on the
floor.
1With the door fully open, place a 1-1/2 inch (3.8 cm) board (or
a 2x4 laid flat) on the floor, centered under thegarage door.
2Press the remote control push button to close the door. The
door MUST reverse when it makes contact with the board.
If the door stops but does not reverse:
1. Review the installation instructions provided to insure allsteps
were followed; 2. Repeat Program the Travel (seeAdjustment Step
1); 3. Repeat the Safety Reversal test.
If the test continues to fail, call a trained door systems technician.
3 - Test the Protector System
®
Without a properly installed safety reversing sensor, persons
(particularly small children) could be SERIOUSLY INJURED
or KILLED by a closing garage door.
1Open the door. Place an obstruction in the path of thedoor.
2Press the remote control push button to close the door. The
door will not move more than an inch (2.5 cm), and the garage
door opener lights will flash 10 times.
The garage door opener will not close from a remote control if the
LED in either safety reversing sensor is off (alerting you to the fact
that the sensor is misaligned or obstructed).
If the garage door opener closes the door when the safety
reversing sensor is obstructed (and the sensors are no more than
6 inches [15 cm] above the floor), call for a trained door systems
technician.
