Install The Lights; Attach The Emergency Release Rope And Handle - Craftsman CMXEOCG781 Owner's Manual

INSTALLATION STEP 6

INSTALL THE LIGHTS

1. 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.
2. Insert an A19 incandescent (100 watt maximum) or compact fluorescent
(26W, 100W equivalent) light bulb into the light 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.
3. Reverse the procedure to close the lens.
4. If the bulbs burn out prematurely due to vibration, replace with a garage
door opener bulb. Use A19, standard neck garage door opener for
replacement.
NOTE: Do not use halogen, short neck, or specialty light bulbs as these may
overheat the end panel or light socket. Do not use LED bulbs as they may reduce
the range or performance of your remote control(s).
INSTALLATION STEP 7

ATTACH THE EMERGENCY RELEASE ROPE AND HANDLE

1. Insert one end of the emergency release rope through the handle. Make
sure that "NOTICE" is right side up. Secure with an overhand knot at least
1" (2.5 cm) from the end of the rope to prevent slipping.
2. Insert the other end of the emergency release rope through the hole in the
trolley release arm. Mount the emergency release within reach, but at least
6 feet (1.83 m) above floor, avoiding contact with vehicles to prevent
accidental release and secure with an overhand knot.
NOTE: If it is necessary to cut the emergency release rope, seal the cut end with a
match or lighter to prevent unraveling. Ensure the emergency release rope and
handle are above the top of all vehicles to avoid entanglement.

l
