LandlightS on Jan 27, 2012You may just be missing the red rope and handle that attaches to the release mechanism. I would suggest you take the photos to Sears and verify that. Then it's an easy fixHelpful Reply

Woodbridge Environmental Tiptophouse.com on Feb 03, 2012That is exactly what appears to be missing. The little red rope that is sold with the opener. However is also looks like the lock arm is also missing as well or some part of it. If that is the case, I am not so sure that they sell that as a seperate part for the operator. You may need to get a complete door and track arm assembley. But its one or the other. Regardless this is something that you can fix yourself. Be safe when working on the operator, You never know when they will turn on. Un-plug it when working on this device for safety. Many people have been hurt quite bad when not turning this device off at the power source.Helpful Reply
