Without a properly working safety reversing sensor, persons(particularlychildren)could be injured or killed by a closing garage door. Read and follow all instructions. are the same Jbr sectional and To protect small children, install the safety reversing sensor so that the beam will be no higher than 4"-6" abovethegaragefloor. Be sure power to the opener is disconnected. The sending eye transmits an invisible light beam to the receiving eye. The units can be installed on either side of the garage door as long as the snn never shines directly into the receiving eye lens. Look at the label on the connector end of each case to identify the sensors. The brackets must be comaected and fastened so that the sending and receiving eyes face each other as shown. Disconnect power to the garage door opener before installingthe safetyreversingsensor. The invisible light beam path must be unobstrncted. No part of the garage door (or door tracks, springs, hinges, rollers or other hardware) can interrupt the beam while the door is closing. If it does, use a piece of wood to bnild om each sensor lnounting location m the lninilnnm depth required for light beam clearance. If an obstrnction breaks the light beam while the garage door is closing, the door will stop and reverse to full open position and the opener lights will flash for 5 seconds. The brackets must be secnrely fastened to a solid surt:ace snch as the studs on either side of the door, or add a piece of wood at each location if installing in masonry construction.

Adjust DOWN Travel How and When to Adjust the Limits If the door does not open completely but opens at least five feet: If the opener reverses in fully closed position: Decrease down travel. Turn the DOWN limit adjustment screw clockwise. One turn equals 2" of travel. Increase up travel. Turn the UP limit adjustlnent screw clockwise. One turn equals 2" of travel. If door does not open at least 5 feet: If the door reverses when closing and there is no visible interference to travel cycle: Adjust the UP (open) force as explained in Adjustment Step 2. It"the opener lights are flashing, the Safety Reversing Sensor is obstructed. Remove the obstruction. Test the door for binding: Pull the emergency release handle. Manually open and close the door. If the door is binding, call for garage door selwice. If the door is not binding or unbalanced, adjust the DOWN (close) force. See Adjustment Step 2. If the door does not close completely: Increase down travel. Turn the DOWN limit adjustlnent screw counterclockwise. One turn equals 2" of travel. If door still won't close completely, try lengthening the door arm. (Page 26.) If you have adjusted the door arm to the lnaxilmun length and the door still will not close completely, lower the header bracket.

Force adjustlnent controls are located on the right panel of the opener. Force adjustlnent settings regulate the amount of power required to open and close the door. The door will stop in the zip direction if anything interferes with its travel. The door will revel_s'ein the down direction if anything interferes with its travel (including binding or unbalanced doors). If the forces are set too light, door travel may be interrupted by mdsance revel_'als in the down direction and stops in the zip direction. Weather conditions can affect the door lnovelnent, so occasional adjustment may be needed. The lnaxilnum force adjustlnent range is about 3/4 of a complete turn. Do not force controls beyond that point.
