The Liftmaster® Medium-Duty Trolley Operator is designed for use on commercial standard lift sectional doors. Its high-torque industrial 1/2 HP motor provides dependable lift along a high-strength L-rail track featuring an exclusive nylon guiding chain for quieter operation.  A quick-mount header bracket means faster installation. In addition, its featured Auxiliary Reversal System protects the door and operator from damage in case of obstructions.  

FEATURES
Liftmaster® Medium-Duty Trolley Operator

Standard Features:

  • Our high-torque industrial 1/2 HP 115V single-phase motor features instant reverse and automatic reset thermal overload. The motor can be removed without affecting limit switch settings.
  • A high-strength dual L-rail track features a nylon gliding chain on rail spacers for quieter and smoother operation.
  • A quick-mount swivel header bracket is designed for faster installation.
  • A 3-button station for OPEN/CLOSE/STOP functions is standard for all operators.  Controls with one, two and three buttons are available.
  • An adjustable friction clutch helps protect against damage to the door and operator should the door meet an obstruction. Works in conjunction with the Auxiliary Reversal System.

Safety Features:
The MT features an Auxiliary Reversal System which is designed to protect the door and door operator from damage.  The system detects the slip of the clutch in the event of an obstruction, then immediately reverses the door to full open position. This system is not a substitute for light-beam or other personal safety systems.
