Setting garage door to manually opening.

To locate the bypass switch look for a red rope hanging down from your garage mechanisms. To manually open most garage doors you simply pull a corded handle that is attached to the door. To reset it begin by pulling the cord in the opposite direction. Have a helper steady the ladder.

To reattach your garage door to opener system you ll pull the emergency release cord down and towards the opener. It should click in place. Keep the rollers and chain lubricated on your garage door. Many electronic garage doors come with a bypass switch allowing you to override the system and manually lift it open when needed.

This disengages the electric drive from the door and you can manually open and close it. This will reengage the door to the opener system and now the only way to open and close your garage door would be with the power of your opener unit. Keep your owner s manual on hand. Place a stepladder beneath the box portion of the garage door opener.

It makes the door operate quiet and makes the chain and all.
