How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Ensure the door is fully closed before attempting to re‑engage the opener.
Steps to try:
- Re‑engage carriage: Pull the emergency release cord toward the opener (or as specified by Novoferm) and move the door manually until the carriage clicks back into the trolley.
- Test operation: Restore power and operate the opener. The carriage should now move with the rail.
- Inspect latch: If the carriage will not stay engaged, the latch mechanism may be worn and require replacement.
