Installation Pre-Installation Requirements IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR INSTALLATION Warning: Incorrect installation can lead to severe injury. Follow ALL installation instructions. Door Operation The door must be in good operating condition. The maximum effort to move the door up or down, from stationary, should not exceed 150 Newtons (15kg force) at the bottom rail. The recommended force is 70N (7kg) for manual operation. Lift the door to about halfway.
Installation Step 1 - Preparation a. fig 03 b. Check the door’s operation: i. The door must travel smoothly and be easy to operate by hand. ii. Operating force on the bottom rail should be approximately 70N (7kgs) force. iii. Adjust any tight or twisted guides/tracks iv. Clean the guides if there is any oil or wax present using a suitable white spirit. The only lubricant suitable for use on door guides is silicon spray. DO NOT use WD40, RP-7, petroleum grease, or similar.
Installation Step 3 - Pin the Door Curtain Door drum Pinning the door curtain to the door drum maintains security when the opener closes and locks. a. b. c. d. Fully close the door. Mark drill holes at both ends of the drum (Fig. 07). Drill holes using 3.2mm (1/8”) drill bit. Open the door slightly for easier access, if necessary. Fit a 10 x 32mm screw and washer to each end.
Installation Step 5 - Mounting the Opener If the internal gear does not rotate freely, switch the opener to manual by pulling the disengagement handle down (there will be a click), so that the ring gear can be rotated by hand. b. Slide the opener over the door axle and into the drum of the door (Fig. 09). c. Ensure the internal gear is pushed in as far as possible (without interfering with the door curtain) and that one of the door drum’s wheel spokes is completely between the opener’s drive forks. d.
Programming the Opener Step 6.1 - Setting Travel Limits NOTE: If PE Beams are to be used they must be installed before setting the travel limits. WARNING! Use caution when operating the manual release with the door open since it may fall rapidly due to weak or broken springs, or an improperly balanced door. fig 11 CAUTION! Do not disengage the opener to manual operation with children, persons or any objects including motor vehicles within the doorway.
Programming the Opener Setting Limits: via Transmitter The GDO-6v3 has the alternate ability to set travel limits using the transmitter, allowing free movement around the garage to better assess the desired limit positions. fig 13 Step 7.1 - Code a Transmitter for Limit Setting a. b. c. d.

Troubleshooting Symptom Door will not operate Possible cause Remedy Mains power not switched on. Switch on mains power. Door is obstructed. Remove obstruction. Door is locked or motor jammed. Unlock door or remove jam. Door tracks/hardware damaged. Door requires service/repair by qualified technician. The opener is in “vacation mode”. Turn off “vacation mode”. Adverse weather conditions (wind or cold) causing door to stiffen and become tight in the tracks. Increase force margin setting.
Maintenance Maintenance Yearly Whilst your opener does not require any periodic maintenance, the door that it is fitted to, does. Your garage door is a large, heavy, moving object and should be tested regularly to ensure it is in good condition. A poorly maintained door could cause fatal or serious injuries or serious damage to property. Automatic Technology suggests you contact your door professional to perform an annual door service.
