Owner Installation Instructions GDO-8 Shed Master® 5
The GDO-8 Shed Master ® is not intended for use by young children or infi rm people without adequate
supervision. Children should be supervised to ensure they do not play with the remote transmitters or the
GDO-8 Shed Master ® .
Keep hands and loose clothing clear of the door and GDO-8 Shed Master ® at all times.
The unit is rated to IP24, however, it should be installed so that it is protected from the elements. Where
possible it should not be exposed to water or rain. It is not to be immersed in water or sprayed
directly by a hose or other water carrying device.
The garage door must be well balanced. Sticking or binding doors must be repaired by a
qualifi ed garage door installer prior to installation of the GDO-8 Shed Master ® .
Frequently examine the installation, in particular cables, springs and mountings for signs of
wear, damage or imbalance. DO NOT use if repair or adjustment is needed since a fault
in the installation or an incorrectly balanced door may cause injury. DO NOT attempt to
repair the door yourself as hardware is under extreme tension.
Remove or disengage all garage door locks and mechanisms prior to installation of
the GDO-8 Shed Master ® .
Connect the GDO-8 Shed Master ® to a properly earthed general purpose
240V mains power outlet installed by a qualifi ed electrical contractor. The
outlet (and GDO-8 Shed Master ® ) must be positioned so that it is easily
accessible.
Disconnect the power cord from mains power before making any
repairs or removing covers. Only experienced service personnel
should remove covers from the GDO-8 Shed Master ® .
In order for the GDO-8 Shed Master ® to sense an object
obstructing the door way, some force must be exerted on the
object. As a result the object, door and/or person may suffer
damage or injury.
If the power supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced
by an Automatic Technology service agent or suitably
qualifi ed person.
Make sure that the door is fully open before driving
in or out of the garage and fully closed before
leaving the driveway.
Make sure that remote controls are kept out
of reach of children.
