13 Install the Protector System®
Be sure power is NOT connected to the garage door opener BEFORE installing the safety
reversing sensor.
To prevent SERIOUS INJURY or DEATH from closing garage door:
lCorrectly connect and align the safety reversing sensor. This required safety device MUST NOT
be disabled.
lInstall the safety reversing sensor so beam is NO HIGHER than 6" (15 cm) above garage floor.
IMPORTANT INFORMATION ABOUT THE SAFETY REVERSING SENSORS
The safety reversing sensors must be connected and aligned correctly before the garage door
opener will move in the down direction.
The sending sensor (with an amber LED) transmits an invisible light beam to the receiving sensor (with
a green LED). Ifan obstruction breaks the light beam while the door is closing, the door will stop and
reverse to the full open position, and the garage door opener lights will flash 10 times.
NOTE: For energy efficiency the garage door opener will enter sleep mode when the door is fully
closed. The sleep mode shuts the garage door opener down until activated. The sleep mode is
sequenced with the garage door opener light bulb; as the light bulb turns off the sensor LEDs will turn
off and whenever the garage door opener lights turn on the sensor LEDs will light.The garage door
opener will not go into the sleep mode until the garage door opener has completed 5 cycles upon
power up.
When installing the safety reversing sensors check the following:
lSensors are installed inside the garage, one on either side of the door.
lSensors are facing each other with the lenses aligned and the receiving sensor lens does not
receive direct sunlight.
lSensors are no more than 6 inches (15 cm) above the floor and the light beam is
unobstructed.

Adjustments
Introduction
Without a properly installed safety reversal system, persons (particularly small children) could be
SERIOUSLY INJURED or KILLED by a closing garage door.
lIncorrect adjustment of garage door travel limits will interfere with proper operation of safety
reversal system.
lAfter ANY adjustments are made, the safety reversal system MUST be tested. Door MUST
reverse on contact with 1-1/2" (3.8 cm) high object (or 2x4 laid flat) on floor.
To prevent damage to vehicles, be sure fully open door provides adequate clearance.
Your garage door opener is designed with electronic controls to make setup and adjustments easy. The
adjustments allow you to program where the door will stop in the open (UP) and close (DOWN)
position. The electronic controls sense the amount of force required to open and close the door. The
force is adjusted automatically when you program the travel.
NOTE: If anything interferes with the door’s upward travel it will stop. If anything interferes with the
door’s downward travel, it will reverse.
UP (Open) DOWN (Close)
PROGRAMMING BUTTONS
The programming buttonsare located on the back panel of the garage door opener and are used to

Automatic Garage Door Opener Safety & Maintenance Guide
Garage Door Opener Safety – An Automatic Decision
A garage door is the largest moving object in the home. An improperly adjusted garage door and opener can exert deadly force when the door closes – which could lead to entrapment of children or
adults and subsequent injury or death.
Proper installation, operation, maintenance, and testing of the garage door and automatic opener are necessary to provide a safe, trouble-free system. Careless operation or allowing children to play with or use
garage door opener controls are also dangerous situations that can lead to tragic results. A few simple precautions can protect your family and friends from potential harm. Please review the safety and
maintenance tips in this guide carefully and keep it for reference. Check the operation of your garage door and opener to ensure they function in a safe and trouble-free manner. Be sure to read all Important
Safety Information found in your garage door opener’s manual as it provides more details and safety considerations than can be supplied with this guide.
Garage Door Openers are Not Toys
Discuss garage door and opener safety with your children.Explain the danger of being trapped under the door.
Stay away from a moving door. The wall-mounted push button should be out of reach of
children, at least 5 feet from the nearest standing surface and
away from all moving parts. Mount and use the button where
you can clearly see the closing garage door.
Keep transmitters and remote controls out of reach of
children. Do not let children play with or use transmitters or
other remote control devices.
Keep the door in sight until it completely closes when using
the wall-mounted push button or transmitter.

Routine Maintenance Can Prevent Tragedies
Make monthly inspection and testing of your garage door and opener system a part of your regular routine. Review your owner’s manual for both the door and door opener. If you don’t have the owner’s manuals,
contact the manufacturer(s) and request a copy for your specific model(s). Look for the opener model number on the back of the power unit.
WARNING – Springs are under high tension. Only qualified individuals should adjust them.
Visually check the door and installation:
lStarting with the door in the closed position, use the manual disconnect on the opener to disconnect the door.
lLook for signs of wear or damage on hinges, rollers, springs, and door panels.
lThese parts may require periodic lubrication. Check the owner’s manual for suggested maintenance.
lIf any signs of damage are evident, contact a trained door systems technician for assistance.
lVerify the photoeye height is no higher than 6" from the garage floor.
Test the door for proper operation:
lOpen and close the door manually using handles or suitable gripping points.
lThe door should move freely and without difficulty.
lThe door should balance and stay partially open 3–4 feet above the floor.
lIf you detect any signs of improper operation, contact a trained door systems technician for assistance.

Test the opener safety features:
lReconnect the opener to the door using the manual disconnectand open the door.
lPlace a 2x4 board flat in the path of the door (1) and try to close it (2). The door should stop when it comes in
contact with the 2x4 and then reverse direction.
lBlock the photoelectric sensor by waving an object in front of the sensor and attempt to close the door. The door
should not close unless the wall-mounted push button is manually held during operation.
lIf the opener does not perform as described, contacta trained door systems technician for assistance.
