Setting the Force
The force, as measured on the closing edge of the door,
should not exceed 400N (40kg). If the closing force is
measured to more than 400N, the Protector System
must be installed. See Section 16.
The force setting regulates the amount of power
required to open and close the door.
• Door should be closed.
• Press the PURPLE button twice to enter opener into
Force Adjustment Mode. The indicator LED will flash
quickly (The Courtesy LEDs dim).
• Press the Green start button on the bottom of the
opener. The door will travel to the UP limit. Press the
Green start button again, the door will travel to the
DOWN limit. The indicator LED will stop flashing when
the force has been learned.
• The door must travel through a complete cycle, UP
and DOWN, in order for the force to be set properly.
If the opener cannot open and close your door fully,
examine your door to ensure that it is balanced
properly and is not sticking or binding.

obstacle laid flat on the floor. Failure to properly adjust the
opener may result in serious personal injury from a closing
garage door. Operate the door in the down direction. The door
must reverse on the obstruction. If the door stops on the
obstruction, remove obstruction and repeat limit and force
setting, Sections 12 & 13, pages 8 & 9. Repeat test.
