An unbalanced garage door might not reverse

when required and someone under the door

could be seriously injured or killed.

If your garage door binds, sticks or is out of

balance, call for professional garage door

service. Garage doors, door springs, cables,

pulleys, brackets and their hardware are under

extreme tension and can cause serious Injury

or death. Do not try to loosen, move or adjust

them yourself!

Ropes left on a garage door could cause

someone to become entangled and killed.

Remove all ropes connected to the door before

installing and operating the opener.

Identify the type and height of your door and any

special conditions that exist and any additional

materials that may be required by referring to the lists

on page 4 or page 5.

To avoid damage to the garage door and

opener, disable locks before installing and

operating the opener. Use a wood screw or nail

to hold locks in the "open" (unlocked)

position.

Operation at other than 120V 60 Hz will cause

opener malfunction and damage.

Before you begin, complete the following test to

make sure your door is balanced, and is not

sticking or binding:

•Liftthe door about halfway as shown. Release the

door. It should stay in place, supported entirely by

its springs.

• Raise and lower the door to see if there is any

binding or sticking.

Installation Step 6 I

Install the Premium Control Console

Locate the door control within sight of the door at a

minimum height of 5 feet where small children

cannot reach, and away from all moving parts of the

door and door hardware.

The door control is typically attached directly to the

wall. If installing into drywall, drill 5/32" holes and

use the anchors provided. For pre-wired installations

(as in new home construction), Console models

may be mounted to a standard single gang box

(Figure 2).

1. Strip 1/4" of insulation from one end of the bell

wire and connect it to the two screw terminals on

the back of the door control: white to 2, and

white/red to 1.

2. Pry off cover along one side with a screwdriver

blade (see Figure 1). Fasten with 6ABxl-1/4" self-

tapping screws (standard installation) or 6-32xl"

machine screws (pre-wired installation) as follows:

•Install bottom screw, allowing 1/8" to protrude

above wall surface.

• Position bottom of door control on screw head and

slide down to secure. Adjust screw for snug fit.

• Ddll and install top screw with care to avoid

cracking plastic housing. Do not overtighten.

•insert top tabs and snap on cover.

3. (For standard installation) Run the bell wire up the

wall and across the ceiling to the opener. Use

insulated staples to secure the wire in several

places. Be careful not to pierce the wire with a

staple, creating a short.

4. Connect the bell wire to the terminal screws on

the opener panel: white to 2; white/red to 1.

5. Position the antenna wire as shown.

Do not connect to live electrical wiring. Connect

only to 24 Volt low voltage wires, Connection to

live wires or higher voltage may cause serious

injury from shock, burn or electrocution.

Children operating or playing with a garage

door opener can injure themselves or others.

The garage door could close and cause

serious injury or death.

Install the door control (or any additional push

buttons) out of the reach of children and away

from all moving parts of the door and door

hardware, but where the garage door is visible.

Do not allow children to operate the push

button(s) or the remote control(s).

A moving garage door could injure someone

under iL Activate the opener only when the

door is properly adjusted, you can see it

clearly, and there are no obstructions to door

travel.

Installation Step 7

Install the Lights and the Lenses I

Install the lights:

•Install a 75 watt maximum light bulb in each

socket. The lights will turn ON and remain lit for

approximately 4-1/2 minutes when power is

connected. Then the lights will turn OFF.

• Use standard neck Garage Door Opener bulbs for

replacement.

Install the lenses:

• Apply slight pressure on the sides of each lens

and slide the tabs into the slots in the side panels.

• For convenience, the lenses may be installed

after Adjustment Step 4 on page 30.

Attach the Emergency

Release Rope and Handle

• Thread one end of the rope through the hole in

the top of the red handle so "NOTICE" reads right

side up as shown. Secure with an overhand knot,

at least 1" from the end of the rope to prevent

slipping.

•Thread the other end of the rope through the hole

in the release arm of the outer trolley.

• Adjust rope length so the handle is 6 feet above

the floor. Secure with an overhand knot.

If it is necessary to cut the rope, heat seal the

cut end with a match or lighter to prevent

unraveling.

Do not use the red handle to pull the door

open or closed. The rope knot could become

untied and you could fall. Use the emergency

release only to disengage the trolley and, if

possible, only when the door is closed.

Garage doors are heavy. If the door is open

when the handle is pulled, the door could

close inadvertently if it is not properly

balanced. Serious injury may result to persons

under the door. Make sure the doorway is clear

of persons and obstructions before pulling

handle when door is open.

Installation Step 9

Electrical Requirements I

To reduce the risk of electric shock, your garage

door opener has agrounding type plug with a third

grounding pin. This plug will onlyfit 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.

To avoid installation difficulties, I

do not run the opener at this time. I

To prevent electrocution or fire, Installation

and wiring must be in compliance with local

electrical and building codes.

Do NOTuse an extension cord, 2-wire adapter,

or change the plug in any way to make it fit

your outlet.

The Safety Reversing System

IMPORTANT INFORMATION ABOUT THE

;AFETY 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.

When properly connected and aligned, the safety

reversing sensor will detect an obstacle in the path

of its electronic beam. The sending eye (with an

orange indicator light) transmits an invisible light

beam to the receiving eye (with a green indicator

light). If an obstruction breaks the light beam while

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

full open position, and the opener light will flash

10 times.

The units must be installed inside the garage so

that the sending and receiving eyes face each other

across the door, between 4 - 6" above the floor.

Either can be installed on the left or right of the door

as long as the sun never shines directly into the

receiving eye lens.

The mounting brackets are designed to clip onto the

track of sectional garage doors without additional

hardware.

Without a properly working safety reversing

sensor, persons (particularly children) could

be injured or 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

between 4 - 6" above the garage floor.

Disconnect power to the garage door opener

before installing the safety reversing sensor.

If it is necessary to mount the units on the wall, the

brackets must be securely fastened to a solid surface

such as the wall framing. Extension brackets (see

accessories) are available if needed. If installing in

masonry construction, add a piece of wood at each

location to avoid drilling extra holes in masonry if

repositioning is necessary.

The invisible light beam path must be unobstructed.

No part of the garage door (or door tracks, springs,

hinges, rollers or other hardware) may interrupt the

beam while the door is closing.

Protection Area

Installation Step 10 I

Install the Safety Reversing Sensor I

Be sure power to the opener is disconnected.

install and align the brackets so the sensors will

face each other across the garage door, with the

beam from4 -6" above the floor.

They may be installed in one of three ways,

depending on your requirements, as follows.

1. (Preferred) Clipped onto the left and right garage

door tracks. See Figure 2.

2. Fastened to the wall on each side of the garage.

See Figure 3.

3. Fastened to the floor (see Figure 4). Concrete

anchors and wood blocks or extension brackets

will be needed.

Garage door track Installation:

•Slip the curved arms over the rounded edge of the

door track. Snap into place against the side of the

track. It should lie flush, with the lip hugging the

back edge of the track, as shown.

If your door track will not support the bracket

securely, wall installation is recommended.

Wall installation:

• Place the bracket against the wall and make sure

there is enough clearance for the sensor beam to

be unobstructed.

• If additional depth is needed, an extension bracket

(see Accessories) or wood blocks can be used.

•Use bracket mounting holes as a template to

locate and drill (2) 3/16" diameter pilot holes on

the wall at each side of the door, from 4-6" above

the floor. (See warning at beginning of Installation

Step 10.)

• Attach brackets to wall with lag screws (not

provided).

• If using extension brackets or wood blocks, adjust

right and left assemblies to the same distance out

from the mounting surface. Make sure all door

hardware obstructions are cleared.

Floor installation:

• Use wood blocks or extension brackets (see

Accessories) to elevate sensor brackets so the

lenses will be 4-6" above the floor.

• Carefully measure and place right and left

assemblies at the same distance out from the wall.

Be sure all door hardware obstructions are

cleared.

• Fasten to the floor with concrete anchors as

shown.

Mounting and Wiring the Safety Sensors

• Slide a1/4"-20xl/2" carriage bolt head into the slot

on both sensors. Use wing nuts to fasten sensors to

brackets, with lenses pointing toward each other

across the door. Be sure the lens is not obstructedby

a bracket extension. See Figure 5.

•Finger tightenthe sensor wing nuts.

•Run the wires from both sensors to the opener. Use

insulated staples to secure wire to wall and ceiling.

•Strip 1/4" of insulationfrom each set of wires.

Separate white and white/black wires sufficientlyto

connect to the opener terminal screws: white to 2

and white/black to 3.

Aligning the Safety Sensors

•Plug inthe opener. The indicator lightsin boththe

sending and receiving eyes will glow steadilyif wiring

connectionsand alignment are correct.

The sendingeye orange indicator lightwill glow

regardless of alignment or obstruction. If the green

indicatorlight inthe receiving eye is off, dim, or

flickering(and the invisiblelight beam path is not

obstructed), alignment is required.

• Loosenthe sending eye wing nut and readjust,

aiming directlyat the receiving eye. Lock inplace.

•Loosen the receiving eye wing nut and adjustsensor

vertically and/or horizontally until it receives the

sender's beam. When the green indicatorlightglows

steadily, tightenthe wing nut.

Connect the door arm to the trolley.

• Close the door and join the curved arm to the connector hole in the trolley with the remaining clevis pin. It may

be necessary to lift the door slightly to make the connection.

•Secure with aring fastener.

•Run the opener through a complete travel cycle. If the door has a slight "backward" slant in full open position

as shown in the illustration, decrease the UP limit until the door is parallel to the floor.

27

Adjustment Section: Pages 28 - 30

Adjustment Step 1

Adjust the UP and DOWN Limits

Do not make any limit adjustments until the

safety reversing sensors ere completely

installed.

Limit adjustment settings regulate the points at

which the door will stop when moving up or down.

If anything interferes with the door's upward travel, it

will stop. If anything interferes with the door's

downward travel (including binding or unbalanced

doors), it will reverse.

To operate the opener, press the Door Control push

button. Run the opener through a complete travel

cycle.

•Does the door open and close completely?

•Does the door stay closed and not reverse

unintentionally when fully closed?

If your door passes both of these tests, no limit

adjustments are necessary unless the reversing test

fails (See page 30).

Adjustment procedures are outlined below.

Read the procedures carefully before

proceeding to Adjustment Step 2. Use a

screwdriver to make limit adjustments. Run the

opener through a complete travel cycle after

each adjustment.

NOTE: Repeated operation of the opener during

adjustment procedures may cause the motor to

overheat and shut off. Simply wait 15 minutes and

try again.

Improper adjustment of the travel limits will

Interfere with the proper operation of the

safety reverse system. The door might not

reverse properly when required and could

seriously Injure or kill someone under It. Test

the safety reverse system after making all

travel and force adjustments. See page 30.

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 adjustment

screw clockwise. One turn equals 2" of travel.

NOTE: Toprevent the trolley from hitting the cover

protection bolt, keep a minimum distance 0f2-4"

between the trolley and the bolt.

•If door does not open at least 5 feet:

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 the door still won't close completely and the trolley

bumps into the trolley stop bolt (see page 4 or 5), try

lengthening the door arm (see page 26) and

decreasing the down limit.

•If the opener reverses in fully closed position:

Decrease down travel. Turn the DOWN limit

adjustment 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, misaligned, or

obstructed. See Troubleshooting, page 23.

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 service. If the door is

not binding or unbalanced, adjust the DOWN (close)

force. See Adjustment Step 2.

28

Adjustment Step 2

Adjust the Force

Force adjustment controls are located on the right

side panel of the opener. Force adjustment settings

regulate the amount of power required to open and

close the door.

The door will stop in the up 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 may be

interrupted by nuisance reversals in the down

direction and stops in the up direction.

Weather conditions can affect the door

movement, so occasional adjustment may be

needed.

The maximum fome adjustment range is 260 degrees,

about 3/4 of a complete turn. Do not force controls

beyond that point. Turn force adjustment controls

with a screwdriver.

Adjustment Label

Too much force on the door will Interfere with

the proper operation of the safety reverse

system. The door might not reverse properly

when required and could seriously injure or

kill someone under it. Do not increase the

force beyond the minimum amount required

to close the door. Do not use the force

adjustments to compensate for abinding or

sticking garage door. Test the safety reverse

system following all adjustments to force

levels. See page 30.

Force Adjustment

Controls

Right Side Panel

How and When to Adjust the Forces

Test the DOWN (close) force

Grasp the door bottom when the door is about

halfway through DOWN (close) travel. The door

should reverse. Reversal halfway through down

travel does not guarantee reversal on aone-Inch

obstruction. See page 30. If the door is hard to

hold or doesn't reverse, decrease the DOWN (close)

force by turning the control counterclockwise.

Make 10 degree turn adjustments until the door

reverses normally. After each adjustment, run the

opener through a complete cycle.

Test the UP (open) force

Grasp the door bottom when the door is about

halfway through UP (open) travel. The door should

stop. If the door is hard to hold or doesn't stop,

decrease UP (open) force by turning the control

counterclockwise.

Make 10 degree turn adjustments until the door stops

easily. After each adjustment, run the opener through

a complete travel cycle.

If the door doesn't open at least5 feet

Increase UP (Open) force by turning the control

clockwise. Make 10 degree turn adjustments until

door opens completely. Re-adjust the UP limit if

necessary. After each adjustment, run the opener

through a complete travel cycle.

If the door reverses during the down (close) cycle

and the opener lights aren't flashing

Increase DOWN (close) force by turning the control

clockwise. Make 10 degree turn adjustments until the

door completes a close cycle. After each adjustment,

run the opener through a complete travel cycle. Do

not increase the force beyond the minimum

amount required to close the door.

29

Adjustment Step 3

Test The Safety Reversing Sensor

•Press the remote control push button to open the

door.

•Place the opener carton in the path of the door.

•Press the remote control push button to close the

door. The door will not move more than an inch,

and the opener light(s) will flash.

Professional service Is required If the opener

closes the door when the safety reversing

sensor Is obstructed.

The garage door opener will not close from a

remote control if the indicator light in either

sensor is off(alerting you to the fact that the

sensor is misaligned or obstructed).

The garage door can be closed by pressing and

holding the Door Control push button untildown

travel is completed.

I

Adjustment Step 4

Test the Safety Reverse System

Test:

•Place a one-inch board (or a 2x4 laid flat) 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 turn.

• Repeat the test.

On a sectional door, make sure limit

adjustments do not cause the trolley to move

within 2-1/2" of the trolley stop bolt. If

necessary, lengthen straight door arm to

maintain this minimum distance.

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

remove the obstruction and run the opener through

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.

IFailure to test and adjust the safety reverse

system may result in serious injury or death to

persons trapped by a closing garage door.

Repeat this test once a month and adjust as

needed.

Situation

Having a Problem?

Probable Cause and 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 circuitbreaker, (Some outlets are controlled by a door switch.)

2. Have you disabled all door looks? Review installationinstructionwarnings on Page 11.

3. Is there a build-up of ice or snow under the door? The door may be frozen 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 lit? If not, remove the bell wire from the opener terminal screws.

Short the red and white terminals by touching both terminals at the same time with a

piece of wire. If the opener runs, check for afaulty wire connection at the Door

Control, a short under the staples, or a broken wire.

2. Are the wiring connections correct? Review Step 6, page 18.

The door operates

from the Door

Control, but not from

the remote control'.

1.

2.

3.

4.

Is any door push button flashing? If your model has the Lock feature, make sure the

lock is Off.

Your opener needs to re-learn aremote control code, Refer to Instructions on the

opener panel.

Program the receiver to match the remote control code.

Repeat the receiver programming procedure with all remote controls.

The remote control

has short range: 1. Change the location of the remote control in your car.

2. Check to be sure the antenna on the side or back panel of opener extends fully

downward.

3. 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 remote control push buttons are off.

2. Remove the bell wire from the Door Control terminals and operate from the remote

control only. If this solves the problem, the Door Control is faulty (replace), or there is

an intermittent short on the wire between the Door Control and the opener.

3. Clear memory and reprogram all remote controls.

The door doesn't

open completely: 1. Is something obstructing the door? Remove 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 force. 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 adjustment procedures on page 28.

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

force or down limit.

34

Situation

Having a Problem? (continued)

Probable Cause & Solution

The door opens but

won't close: 1. If the opener lights blink, check the safety reversing sensor. See page 23.

2. 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 something obstructing the door?. Pull the red emergency release handle. Operate

the door manually. 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 adjustment procedures on page 29.

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

Repeat safety reverse test after adjustments to force or travel limits. The need

for 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 5 seconds

after reversing:

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

See page 23.

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

Replace the light bulbs (75 watts maximum). Use a standard neck garage door opener

bulb if regular bulb burns out.

•.. don't turn off:

Is the Light feature on? Turn it off.

The opener strains or

maximum force is

needed to operate

door:

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

emergency release to disconnectthe trolley. Open and closethe door manually. Apropedy

balanced door will stay in any point of travel while being supported entirelyby its springs. If it

does not, disconnect the opener and call a professionalgarage door serviceman. Do not

increase the force to operate the opener.

The opener motor

hums briefly, then

won't work:

1. The garage door springs are broken. See above.

2. If the problem occurs on the first operation of the opener, door may be locked. Disable

the doorlock. If the chain was removed and reinstalled, the motor may be out of phase.

Remove the chain; cycle the motor to the down position. Observe the drive sprocket.

When it turns in a clockwise direction and stops in the down position, reinstall the chain.

Repeat the safety reverse test after the adjustment is complete.

The opener won't

operate due to

power failure:

1. Use the emergency releaseto disconnect the trolley.The door can be opened and closed

manually. When the poweris restored, pressthe Door Controlpush button and trolleywill

automaticallyreconnect(unless trolleyis in lockoutposition.)See page 32.

2. The Emergency Key Release accessory (for use on garages with no service door)

disconnects the trolley from outside the garage in case of power failure.

The cham droops

or sags:

it is normal for the chain to droop slightly in the closed door position. Use the

emergency release to disconnect the trolley. If the chain returns to normal height when

the trolley is disengaged and the door reverses on a one-inch board, no adjustments

are needed (see page 11).
