21. After Installation Care
21.1 Service Checklist Preventative servicing of your garage door and opener, is just as important as servicing your car. Much like the engine of your car, your garage door is made up of numerous moving parts designed to lift and lower your door safely and efficiently.
Ongoing preventative servicing ensures that your door continues to function within factory specifications, greatly reduces the risk of failure and repair bills down the track and ensures you maintain your Warranty.
Run the Safety Testing procedures MONTHLY in tip Section 13 to ensure garage door is fit for use.

WARNING! Failure to maintain your your garage door voids the warranty on your garage door opener.
DO NOT DO IT YOURSELF:
DIY Door adjustments should only be
carried out by experienced persons, as this function can be dangerous if not performed under strict safety procedures.

TECHNICIAN CHECKLIST 1. Lubrication of the critical moving parts including chain drive, tracks, wheels or cable drum. 2. Tightening of door mounting points along with door bolts, screws, cables and connectors. 3. Adjustment of spring tension to limit `spring fatigue’. 4. Adjustment of opener travel limits and force margin to ensure the door opens and closes to specification. 5. Assessment and adjustment of safety components and accessories including safety beams, Auto-Lock and Safe
Lock (if installed) 6. Assessment of the door alignment and the diagnosis of irregular operation remedies. 7. Record Cycle count at each service to establish next date of service (as per table)

d. With a non-metallic object (e.g. pen) remove the battery.

Use a pen to push the battery down through the side opening to release battery
WARNING! Chemical Burn Hazard. Keep batteries away from children

21.3 Battery Disposal
WARNING! The Battery shall be disposed of properly, including keeping them away from children. Even used batteries may cause injury.

DO NOT throw the batteries in municipal waste. This symbol of the crossed out wheeled bin indicates that the battery should not be placed in the municipal waste. Check your local regulations for appropriate disposal of the batteries.

Recycling all batteries will have other environmental and social benefits:

· Some batteries are less toxic but hazardous for other reasons. Lithium batteries can explode or catch fire in landfill, while button cells are dangerous if swallowed by children. Recycling offers a safe and environmentally responsible solution for end of life batteries.
· Battery recycling recovers non-renewable materials such as lead, cadmium, stella, zinc, manganese, cobalt, silver, plastics and rare earth elements.

· Removal of batteries and other hazardous household products from household waste facilitates the recovery of organic materials through alternative waste technologies such as composting. Batteries and heavy metals are known contaminants in compost.
· The community supports recycling because it reduces waste to landfill and achieves environmental benefits.

WARNING! Prior to disposal, recycling, or collection, all battery terminals must be securely insulated with a non conductive material to prevent any two batteries from short circuiting and generating heat during storage or transport. Battery terminals may be insulated with electrical tape; or batteries may be individually packaged in a non conductive material (e.g., plastic bag or original packaging).

21.4 Warranty
Full details of the warranty are available in your Owners Opener Handbook, from your nearest Dominator office or visit the Dominator Website dominator.co.nz.
