    NOTE:

    1. The "Suggested maximum weight" includes the weight of the door, the hardware (hinges, rollers, reinforcement struts), and the windows where applicable.

    2. Garaga strongly recommends adding an electropneumatic reversing system and/or photocell system.

    3. Jackshaft-type operators (H model) come equipped with a mechanical braking system. A solenoid brake is an option.

    4. Jackshaft-type operators (MJ, MH & GH) come equipped with a solenoid brake standard.


    Conversion:

    1 lb = 0.454 kg


    12 inches = 1 foot = 305 mm
