Instructions for fitting your
Cardale Autoglide operator
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
FOR INSTALLATION
WARNING – INCORRECT INSTALLATION CAN
LEAD TO SEVERE INJURY FOLLOW ALL
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
Before installing the operator check that the door is in
good mechanical condition, and correctly balanced, and
that it opens and closes properly.
Do not use the force adjustments to compensate for
a binding or sticking garage door. Excessive force will
interfere with the proper operation of the Safety Reverse
System or damage the garage door.
Do not wear rings, watches or loose clothing while
installing or servicing a garage door operator.
To avoid serious personal injury from entanglement,
remove any ropes connected to the garage door before
installing the door operator.
Install the remote mounted bell push button within
sight of the door but away from any moving parts and
at a height of at least 1.5 metres.
Permanently fix the label warning of entrapment in a
prominent place or near the remote bell push button.
The safety reverse system test is very important.
The garage door must reverse when obstructed on
closing. Failure to properly adjust the operator may
result in serious personal injury from a closing garage
door. Repeat the test once a month and make any
needed adjustments (see Section 7 in manual –
Safety sensitivity check.)
SAFETY NOTE: If there is a chance that children
may play in the entry of the garage then ensure
the child lock is ENABLED so that the door CANNOT
be operated from the
button (see Section 6c).
