J I 2O The Safety Reversing System IMPORTANT INFORMATION ABOUT THE SAFETY REVERSING SENSOR The safety reversing sensor mustbe 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. Without # 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. When properly connected and aligned, the safety reversingsensor will detect an obstacle in the path of its electronic beam. The sending eye (with an orange indicator light) transmitsan invisiblelight beam to the receiving eye (with a green indicator light).If an obstructionbreaks 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. If it is necessary to mount the unitson the wall, the bracketsmust be securelyfastened to a solid surface such as the wall framing. Extension brackets (see accessories)are available if needed. If installingin masonryconstruction,add a piece of wood at each locationto avoid drillingextra holes in masonry if rspositioningis necessary. The invisiblelightbeam path must be unobstructed. No part of the gai'age door (or door tracks, springs, hinges,milers or other hardware) may interrupt the beam while the door is ctosing. The units must be installed inside the garage so that the sending and receivingeyes face each other across the door, between 4 - 6" above the floor. Either can be installedon the left or right of the door as long as the sun never shines directly into the receivingeye lens. The mounting brackets are designed to clip onto the track of sectional garage doors without additional hardware.

If the door has a slight "backward"slant in full open position as shown in the dlustration,decrease the UP limituntil the door is parallelto the floor. 27 Adjustment Section: Pages 28 - 30 Adjustment Step I Adjust the UP and DOWN Limits 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 following all adjustments to the travel limits. See page 30. Do not make any limit adjustments until the safety reversing sensors are 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 wiI! stop. If anything interferes with the door's downward travel (including bindingor unbalanced doors), it will reverse. To operate the opener, press the Door Control push bar or button. Run the opener through a complete travel cycle. Urn_ Adjustment Screws • Does the door open and close completely? • Does the door stay closed and not reverse unintentionallywhen fully closed? If your door passes both of these tests, no limit adjustments are necessary unless the reversingtest fails (See page 30). Cover Protection 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. Left Side Panel Bolt NOTE: Repeated operation of the opener during adjustmentprocedures may cause the motor to overheat and shut off. Simply wait 15 minutes and try again. Adiustment Label How and When to Adjust the Limits • If the door does not open completely, but opens atleastflve feet: • If the opener reverses In fully closed position: Decrease downtravel.Turn the DOWN limit adjustment screwclockwise. One turn equals 2" of travel. Increase up travel. Turn the UP limit adjustment screw clockwise.One turn equals 2" of travel. NOTE: To prevent the trolley from hiring the cover protection bolt, keep a minimum distance of 2-4" between the trolley and the bolt. • If the door revereeswhen closing and there Is no visible interference to travel cycle: Adjust the UP (open) force as explained in Adjustment Step 2. If the opener lights are flashing, the Safety Reversing Sensors are either not installed, misaligned, or obstructed.See Troubleshooting, page 23. • If the door does not close complete/y: Increase downtravel. Turn the DOWN limit adjustment screw counterclockwise. One turn equals 2" of travel. Test the door for binding:Pull the emergency release handle. Manuallyopen and close the door. If the door is binding,call for garage door service. If the door is not bindingor unbalanced,adjust the DOWN (close) force. See AdjustmentStep 2. • If door does not open at least 5 feet: If the door stillwon't close completely and the trolley bumps intothe trolley stop bolt (see page 4 or 5), try lengthening the door arm (see page 26) and decreasing the down limit. 28 Adjustment Step 2 I I Adjust the Force Force adjustment controls are located on the back _anel of the opener. Force adjustment settings regulate the amount of power required to open and close the door. The door will stopin the up direction if anything interferes with its travel. The door will reverse in the down direction if anything interfereswith its travel (includingbinding 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. Too much force on the door will Interfere witt the proper operation of the safety reverse system. The door might not reverse properly when required and could seriously Injure or Idll 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 a binding or sticking garage door. Test the safety reverse system following all adjustments to force levels. See page 30. Backpanelof door opener \ Force Adjustment Contr_ The maximum force 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 Labe4 How and When to Adjust Test the DOWN (close) force the Forces Make 10 degree tum adjustmentsuntilthe door stops easily.After each adjustment, runthe opener through a complete travel cycle. If the door doesn't open at leest5 feet 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 a two-inch obstruction. Seepage 30. If the door is hard to hold or doesn't reverse, decrease the DOWN (close) force by turning the control counterclockwise. Increase UP (Open) force by turningthe control clockwise. Make 10 degree turn adjustmentsuntil door openscompletely. Re-adjust the UP limitif necessary.After each adjustment,run the opener through a complete travel cycle. Make 10 degree turn adjustments until the door reverses normally. After each adjustment, run the opener through a complete cycle. If the door reverses during the down (close) cycle and the opener lights aren't flashing Increase DOWN (close) force by turningthe control clockwise. Make 10 degree turn adjustmentsuntil the door completes a close cycle. Aftereach adjustment, runthe opener througha complete travel cycle. Do not increase the force beyond the minimum amount required to close the door. 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 turningthe control counterclockwise, 29 Adjustment Step 3 Test The Safety Reversing Sensor I • Press the remote controlpush buttonto 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 will/lash. Professional service Is required If the opener closes the door when the safety reversing sensor Is obstructed. I [ if 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 mlsaligned or obstructed). In I Io[ ] 11il The garage door can be closed by pressing and holdingthe Door Control push bar or button until down travel is completed. Adjustment Step 4 Test the Safety Reverse System I 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. L 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 limitadjustment screw counterclockwise1/4 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 boll If necessary, lengthen straight door arm to maintain this minimum distance. • When the door reverses on the one-inch board, remove the obstructionand run the opener through 3 or 4 completetravel cycles to test adjustment. If the door will not reverse after repeated adjustment attempts, call Sears Service Center for garage door opener service. Important safety check Repeat Adjustment Steps 1, 2 and 4 after: • Each adjustment of door arm length, force controls or limit controls. • Any repair to or adjustmentof the garage door (including springsand hardware). • Any repair to or bucklingof the garage floor. • Any repair to or adjustmentof the opener. 3O IMPORTANT F SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS To reduce the risk of severe injury or death to persons: 1.
