Does this opener have an emergency release pull cord in the event of a power failure so I can still open the garage door manually?

Yes, it does have a red emergency release cord. Very accessible - if one is 4ft tall or more.

IT does have a small electronic board in it. We did have to replace ours when it was maybe 4-5 years old, but it could also be faulty wiring between the switch and the opener. As I recall it's a two wire system, using bell wire (Single strand wire) should be pretty easy to pick up a small roll of wire and re-wire the switch, it's low voltage, but if that makes you nervous, just unplug the drive unit before you start (always a good practice.)

I am not sure of the electrical cord. Mine did not come with one. it is battery operated with 2 master keys to open if power is lost.

Yes - all you need is a heavy duty extension cord. We use one with 3 different outlets on it so we can plug a couple different things into the generator. Course I don't have to tell you to leave your garage door open when running the generator....believe if or not, we've had a couple of people here in Maine who died of carbon monoxide poisoning from leaving the generator running inside a garage with doors shut.

No it doesn't, you have to pull the door closed again. However, if you try and walk through the screen because you didn't realize it was closed it will automatically open, LOL.

Yes, Lynn, mine is. Look for a little hole on the side. If it is there you have rechargeable opener.

I doubt it. It did not on the model 2 versions ago. The light merely indicated that that the opener was connected to the charger and the charger was connected to power.

Sure, there is a disengagement rope under the motor. You have to be inside the garage to release the opener. Not unlike a 'normal' garage door opener.

yes the wall control unit will still run the opener with the power being out.

This unit is designed for the Liftmaster 3800, 3900 and 8500 series. It connects directly to the opener via a small plastic connector and does not need any programming. The bolt is activated to retract just prior to opening the door and extend after the door is down. It's pretty reassuring to hear that "clunk" and know that the door is locked tight. You may also manually slide the bolt if needed (i.e. power outage).

It has a cord running over pulleys internally. Mine is jammed at the moment and is inaccessible to fix.

No cord to pull. This is an electric mower and it has a lever on the handle. You pull up the lever with your hand and hold it. If you let it go the mower engine stops.

Yes-manually ... there is a red 'T' handle on a short piece of rope you pull to disengage the chain ... you then open and close the door like you did before you had the opener attached. It is easy to re-set once the power is restored. My wife just had to do this this past weekend when the power was out and I was at the Fire Hall.

No, this is normally closed and then open when power is applied. I'm very happy with the two of them that I bought.

If you are talking about the two cables that connect to it (one for the lock and the other to open the door) then no, it does not. Was there an issue with these cables? If your handle is just broken like mine was, but those cables are still intact, you won't need anything else.

Don't know. It has a specific plug that plugs into the back of the opener. If the opener doesn't have the receptacle for the plug, then no.

It is a rechargeable opener. The cord should have been in the box. I had to look a little for mine but it was in the packaging.
