light feature. This feature activates the light on when
the safety reversing sensor beam has been
obstructed. Refer to Operation section; Using the
Wall Mounted control console, Light Feature.
6. My motor unit hums briefly:
• First verify that the trolley is against the stop bolt.
• Release the door from the opener by pulling the
Emergency Release Rope.
• Manually bring the door to a closed position.
• Loosen the belt by adjusting the outer nut4 to 5
turns. This relieves the tension.
• Run the motor unit from the remote control or control
console. The trolley should travel towards the door
and stop. If the trolley re-engages with the door, pull
the Emergency Release Rope to disengage.
