The Safety Reversing Sensor

Information you'll need before you begin the installation of the safety reversing sensor

The safety reversing sensor must be connected and

aligned correctly before the garage door opener will

move in the down direction. This is a required safety

device and cannot be disabled.

Installation procedures are the same Jbr sectional and

one-piece dool_=

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 sun 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 lnUStbe connected and thstened so that the

sending and receiving eyes t:ace each other as shown.

If an obstruction breaks the light beam while the garage

door is closing, the door will stop and reverse to fidl open

position and the opener lights will flash for 5 secon&.

The brackets must be securely _hstened to a solid surthce

such as the studs on either side of the door, or add a piece

of wood at each location if installing in masonry

constrnction.

Without aproperly working safety reversing sensor,

persons (particularlychildren)couldbe injuredor killed

by a closing garage door. Read and follow all

instructions,

To protect small children, install the safety reversing

sensor so that the beam will be no higher than 4"-6"

abovethegaragefloor.

Disconnect power to the garage door opener before

installingthesafetyreversingsensor.

The invisible light beam path lnnst be unobstrncted. No

part of the garage door (or door tracks, springs, hinges,

rollers or other hardware) can intemtpt the beam while

the door is closing. If it does, use a piece of wood to bnild

out each sensor mounting location to the minimum depth

required for light beam clearance.

Installation Step 4

Install the Safety Reversing Sensor

(Receiving and Sending Eyes)

Figures 1 and 2 show assembly of brackets and "C" wrap

based on the recolmnended installation of the sensors on

each side of the garage door as shown on page 16.

However, Figures 3 and 4 are variations which may fit

your installation requirelnents better. Make sure the

wraps and brackets are aligned so the sensors will face

each other across the garage door.

1. Fasten the "C" wraps to the mounting brackets having

sqtmre holes, using the hardware shown in Figure 3.

2. Connect each assembly to a slotted bracket, using the

hardware shown in Figure 2.

Note the alignment of the brackets for left and right

sides of the door.

3. Finger tighten the loci( nuts.

4. Use bracket mounting holes as a template to locate and

drill (2) 3/16" diameter pilot holes on both sides of the

garage door, 4"-6" above the floor but not exceeding

6". (See warning on page 16.)

5. Attach bracket assemblies with 1/4"x1-1/2" lag screws

as shown in Figure 2.

6. Adjust right and left side bracket assemblies to the

same distance out froln the mounting snrface. Make

sure all door hardware obstrnctions are cleared.

Electrical Requirements

To reduce the risk of electric shock, your garage door

opener has a grounding type plug with a third grounding

pin. This plug will only fit into a grounding type outlet.

If the plug doesn't fit into the outlet you have, contact a

qualified electrician to install the proper outlet.

ITo avoid installation difficulties,

do not run the opener until Step 9 below.

If permanent wiring is required by your local code,

refer to the following procedure:

Complete Safety Reversing Sensor

Installation

Aligning the Safety Sensors

•Plug in the opener. Green indicator lights in both the

sending and receiving eyes will glow steadily if wiring

connections and alignment are correct.

The sending eye indicator light will glow regardless of

alignment or obstruction. If the indicator light is of£ dim,

or flickering in the lvceiving c3,e(and the invisible light

beam path is not obstructed), alignment is required.

• Loosen the sending eye wing nut and readjust, aiming

directly at the receiving eye. Lock in place.

• Loosen the receiving eye wing nut and adjust sensor

vertically and/or horizontally until it receives the

sender's beam. When the green indicator light glows

steadily, tighten the wing nut.

Trouble Shooting

1. If the sending eye indicator light does not glow

steadily after installation, check for:

• Electric power to the opener.

• A short in the white or white/black wires. These can

occur under staples or at screw terminal connections.

• Incorrect wiring between sensors and opener.

• An open wire (wire break).

2. If the sending eye indicator light glows steadily but the

receiving eye indicator light doesn't:

• Check alignment.

• Check for an open wire to the receiving eye.

3. If the receiving eye indicator light is dim, realign

either sensor.

NOTE: When the itwisible beam path is'obstructed or

re#aligned while the door is'closing, the door will

revels'e. If the door is'already open, it will not close. The

opener li@ts will flash 10 times. (If bulbs my not

installed, 10 clicks' are audibleJ Seepage 16.

Installation Step 10

Install the Lights and Lens

• Install a 100 watt lnaxilmnn light bulb in each socket.

The lights will turn ON and relnain lit for

approxilnately 4-1/2 lninutes when power is connected.

Then the lights will mm OFF.

• Insert bottom lens tabs into slots on chassis and tilt

towards chassis to engage top tabs, then drop down

gently into place. (See ilhtstralT"om)

• To relnove, lift lens up and gently tilt slightly outward

and down, then pull out to clear bulbs. Use care to

avoid snapping off'bottom lens tabs.

• If the bulbs burn out prelnaturely, replace with standard

neck Garage Door Opener bulbs. (Fluorescent bulbs are

How and When to Adjust the Limits

If the door does not open completely but opens at least

five feet:

Increase up travel. Turn the UP limit adjustlnent screw

clockwise. One turn equals 2" of travel.

If door does not open at least 5feet:

Adjust the UP (open) force as explained in Adjustment

Step 2.

If the door does not close completely:

Increase down travel. Turn the DOWN limit adjustment

screw counterclockwise. One turn equals 2" of travel.

If door still won't close completely, try lengthening the

door arm (see page 26).

If you have adjusted the door arm to the lnaximum length

and the door still will not close completely, lower the

header bracket. See Installation Step 1, pages 12 and 13.

If the opener reverses in full)" closed position:

Decrease down travel. Turn the DOWN limit adjustlnent

screw clockwise. One turn equals 2" of travel.

If the door reverses when closing and there is no

visible interference to travel cycle:

If the opener lights are flashing, the Safety Reversing

Sensors are either not installed, lnisaligned, or obstructed.

See Troubleshooting, page 22.

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.

Adjustment Step 2

Adjust the Force

Force adjustlnent controls are located on the right panel

of the opener. Force adjustlnent settings regulate the

alnount 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 reverse in the

down direction if anything interferes with its travel

(including binding or unbalanced doors).

If the forces are set too light, door travel lnay be

intemlpted by nuisance revel_'als in the down direction

and stops in the lip direction. Weather conditions can

affect the door lnOvelnent, so occasional adjustlnent may

be needed.

The lnaxilnuln force adjustlnent range is about 3/4 of a

I Adjustment Step 4

Test the Safety Reverse System

Test

•Place a one-inch board (or a2x4 laid fiat) on the floor,

centered under the garage door.

• Operate the door in the down direction. The door must

reverse on striking the obstruction.

Adjustment

If the door stops on the obstruction, it is not traveling far

enough in the down direction.

• Increase the DOWN limit by turning the DOWN limit

adjustment screw counterclockwise 1/4 tuna.

• Repeat the test.

On a sectional dool; make sure limit adjustments do

not force the door arm beyond a straight up and down

position. See the illustration on page 26.

• When the door reverses on the one-inch board, remove

the obstruction and run the opener tl_ough 3 or 4

complete travel cycles to test adjustment.

If the door will not reverse after repeated adjustment

attempts, call for professional garage door service.

Important Safety Check

Repeat Adjustment Steps 1-4 after:

• Each adjustlnent of door arm length, force controls or

limit controls.

• Any repair to or adjustment of the garage door

(including swings and hardware).

• Any repair to or buckling of the garage floor.

• Any repair to or adjustment of the opener.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

To reduce the risk of severe injury or death to persons:

1. READ AND FOLLOW ALL INSTRUCTIONS.

2. Do not permit children either to operate or to play with the opener. Keep remote control in a location

inaccessible to children.

3. Operate opener only when the door is in full view and free from any obstruction. Keep the door in sight until

it is completely closed. NO ONE SHOULD CROSS THE PATH OF THE MOVING DOOR.

4. Check safety reversal system monthly. See page 30. The garage door MUST reverse on contact with a one

inch object (or a 2x4 board laid flat) placed on the floor. If an adjustment is made to one of the controls

(either force or limits of travel), the other control may need to be adjusted also, and the safety reversal system

must be checked. Failure to properly adjust the opener may result in severe injury or death.

5. If possible, use the emergency release only when the door is in a closed position. Caution should be taken

whenever the disconnect cord is actuated with the door open. Weak or broken springs may cause the door to

fall rapidly, causing inju O" or death to persons.

6. KEEP GARAGE DOORS PROPERLY BALANCED. See page 3. An improperly balanced door may not

reverse ,,hen required, and could result in severe injury or death. Repairs to cables, spring assemblies and

other hardware must be made by a professional garage door person.

7. Disconnect the electric power to the garage door opener before making any repairs or removing the covers.

Situation

Troubleshooting

Probable Cause & Solution

The opener doesn't

operate from either

the door control or

the remote control:

1. Does the opener have electric power? Plug a lamp into the outlet. If it doesn't light, check the

fuse box or the circuit breal(er. (Solne outlets are controlled by a wall switch.)

2. Have you disabled all door locks? Review installation instruction warnings on Page 11.

3. Is there a build-up of ice or snow under the door? The door may be t_ozen to the ground.

Remove any restriction.

4. The garage door spring may be broken. Have it replaced.

5. Repeated operation may have tripped the overload protector in the motor. Wait

15 minutes. Try again.

Opener operates from

the remote control but

not from the door

control:

1. Is the door control push bar lit? If not, Relnove the bell wire froln the opener terminal

screws. Short the red and white terlninals by touching both terminals at the same time with

a piece of wire. If the opener rtms, check for a faulty wire connection at the door control, a

short under the staples, or a broken wire.

2. Are the wiring connections correct? Review Installation Step 7, page 21.

The door operates from

the door control but not

from the remote

control:

1. Is any door push button flashing? If your model has the Lock feature, make sure it is off.

2. Your opener needs to re-learn a remote control code. Refer m instructions on the opener

panel.

3. Does the battery test light glow when the remote control push button is pressed? If not,

replace the battery.

4. Prograln the receiver m lnatch the remote control code.

5. Repeat the receiver progralraning procedure with all remote controls.

The remote control has

short range:

1. Check the battery test light. If the light is dim, replace the battery.

2. Change the location of the relnote control in your car.

3. Check to be sure the antenna on the right side panel of opener extends fully.

4. Some installations may have shorter range due to a metal door, foil backed insulation, or

metal garage siding. (Antenna Extender Kit 41A3504)

Opener noise is

disturbing in living

quarters of home:

If operational noise is a problem because of proximity of the opener to the living quarters, the

Vibration Isolator Kit 41A3263 can be installed. This kit was designed to minimize vibration

to the house and is easy to install.

The garage door

opens and closes by

itself"

1. Be sure that all relnote control push buttons and battery indicator lights are off.

2. Relnove the bell wire from the door control terminals and operate from the remote control

only. If this solves the problem, the door control is t:aulty (replace), or there is an

intermittent short on the wire between the door control and the opener.

3. Clear lnemory and reprogram all relnote controls.

The door doesn't open

completely:

1. Is SOlnething obstructing the door? Relnove the obstruction or repair the door.

2. If the door has been working properly but now doesn't open all the way, increase the up

fbrce. See page 29.

3. If door opens at least 5 feet, the travel limits may need to be increased. One turn equals

2 inches of travel. See page 28.

Repeat the safety reverse test after the adjustment is"complete.

The door stops" but

doesn't close

completely:

Review the travel limits adjustlnent procedures on page 28.

Repeat the safety reverse test after any adjustment of door arm length, close force or down

limit.

Situation

Troubleshooting (continued)

Probable Cause & Solution

The door opens but

,,on 't close:

If the opener lights blink, check the safety reversing sensor. See page 22.

If the opener lights do not blink and it is a new installation, check the down force. See

Adjustment Step 2, page 29. For an existing installation, see below.

Repeat the safety reverse test after the adjustment is complete.

The door reverses'for no

apparent reason and

opener lights" don't

blink:

1. Is SOlnething obstructing the door? Pull the emergency release handle. Operate the door

lnanually. If it is unbalanced or binding, call for professional garage door service.

2. Clear any ice or snow from the garage floor area where the door closes.

3. Review the force adjustlnent procedures on page 29.

4. If door reverses in thefidly closed position, decrease the travel limits (page 28).

Repeat the safety reverse test after adflJstments to force or travel limits. The needJbr

occasional adjustment of the force and limit settings is normal. Weather conditions in

particular can affect door travel.

The door reverses for no

apparent reason and

opener lights" blink for

5seconds after

reversing:

Check the safety reversing sensor. Relnove any obstruction or align the receiving eye. See

pages 12 and 22.

The opener lights'... don't tnrn on:

Replace the light bulb(s) (100 watts lnaxilnUln). Use a standard neck garage door opener bulb

if regular bulb bums out.

don't tnrn off"

Is the Light feature on? Turn it qff.

The opener strains or

maximum force is

needed to operate door:

The door may be out of balance or the springs are broken. Close the door and use the

emergency release handle to disconnect the trolley. Open and close the door lnanually. A

properly balanced door will stay in any point of travel while being supported entirely by its

springs. If it does not, disconnect the opener and call for professional garage door service.

Do not increase the force to operate the opener.

The opener motor

hums briefly, then

.,on 't work:

The garage door springs are broken. See above.

If the probleln occurs on the first operation of the opener, door lnay be locked. Disable the

door lock.

Repeat the safety reverse test after the adjustment is"complete.
