Install the Door Control
Locate the door control within sight of the door at a
minimumheight of 5 feet where smallchildren
cannot reach, and away from all movingparts of the
doorand doorhardware.
The door controlis typicallyattacheddirectlyto the
wall. If installinginto drywall, drill5/32" holes and
use the anchors provided. Forpre-wiredinstalla#ons
(as in new home construction),Console models
may be mountedto a standard singlegang box
(Figure 2).
1. Strip 1/4"of insulationfrom one end of the bell
wire and connect it to the two screw terminalson
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 (Figure 1). Fasten with 6ABx1-1/4" self-
tapping screws (standard installation)or 6-32xl"
machine screws (pre-wired installation) as
follows:
Installbottom screw, allowing1/8"to protrude
above wall surface.
Positionbottom of door controlon screw head
and slide down to secure, Adjustscrew for snug
fit,
Install top screw with care to avoid cracking
plastichousing. Do not overtighten.
Insert top tabs and snap on cover.
3. (For standard installation only) 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 astaple, 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 w/ms. Connection to
live wires or higher voltage may cause serious
injury from shock, bum 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(e) or the remote control(s).
A moving garage door could injure someone
under it. Activate the opener only when the

Adjust rope lengthso 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.

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.
When properlyconnected and aligned,the safety
reversingsensor will detect an obstacle inthe path
of its electronic beam. The sending eye (with an
orange indicatorlight)transmitsan invisiblelight
beam to the receiving eye (witha green indicator
light).If an obstructionbreaks the lightbeam while
the door is closing, the doorwill stop and reverse to
full open position, and the opener lightwill flash
10 times.
The units must be installed insidethe 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 rightof the door
as long as the sun never shines directlyinto the
receivingeye lens.
The mountingbrackets are designed to clip onto the
track of sectional garage doorswithoutadditional
hardware.
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.
If it is necessaryto mount the unitson the wall, the
bracketsmust be securelyfastened to a solidsurface
suchas the wall framing. Extensionbrackets (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 partof the gai'age door (or doortracks, springs,
hinges,milers or other hardware) may interruptthe
beam while the door is ctosing.

Installation Step 10
Install the Safety Reversing Sensor
Be sure power to the opener Is disconnected.
Install and align the bracketsso the sensors will
face each other acrossthe garage door, with the
beam from 4 -6" above the #oor.
They may be installedin one of three ways,
depending on your requirements, as follows.
1. (Preferred) Clipped onto the left and rightgarage
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 blocksor extension brackets
will be needed.
Garage door track Installation:
Slip the curved arms overthe 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 supportthe bracket
securely, wall installationis recommended.
Wall installation:
Place the bracket against the wall and make sure
there is enough clearance for the sensor beam to
be unobstructed.
If additionaldepth is needed, an extension bracket
(see Accessories)or wood blocks can be used.
Use bracket mountingholes as a template to
locate and drill (2) 3/16" diameter pilotholes 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 extensionbrackets 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 blocksor extensionbrackets (see
Accessones) to elevate sensor brackets so the
lenses will be 4-6" above the floor.
Carefully measure and place rightand left
assemblies at the same distance out from the wall.
Be sure all door hardwareobstructionsare
cleared.

Adjustment Section: Pages 28 - 30
Adjustment Step I
Adjust the UP and DOWN Limits
Do not make any limit adjustments until the
safety reversing sensors are completely
Installed.
Limit adjustmentsettings regulate the pointsat
which the doorwill stopwhen movingup or down,
If anything interferes with the door's upwardtravel, it
wiI!stop. If anything interferes withthe door's
downward travel (includingbindingor unbalanced
doors), it will reverse.
To operate the opener, press the Door Control push
bar or button. Run the opener througha complete
travel cycle.
Does the door open and close completely?
Does the door stay closed and not reverse
unintentionallywhen fully closed?
If your doorpasses both of these tests, no limit
adjustments are necessary unless the reversingtest
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
adjustmentprocedures may cause the motor to
overheat and shut off. Simply wait 15minutes 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 following all adjustments to the
travel limits. See page 30.

between the trolley and the bolt.
If door does not open at least 5 feet:
Adjustthe UP (open) force as explained in
Adjustment Step 2.
If the door does not close complete/y:
Increase downtravel. Turn the DOWN limit
adjustmentscrew counterclockwise.One turn
equals 2" of travel.
If the door stillwon't close completely and the trolley
bumps intothe trolley stop bolt (see page 4 or 5), try
lengtheningthe door arm (see page 26) and
decreasing the down limit.
If the opener reverses In fully closed position:
Decrease downtravel.Turn the DOWN limit
adjustmentscrewclockwise.One turn equals 2" of
travel.
If the door revereeswhen closing and
there Is no visible interference to travel cycle:
If the opener lightsare flashing,the Safety
Reversing Sensors are either notinstalled,
misaligned, or obstructed.See Troubleshooting,
page 23.
Test the door forbinding:Pull the emergency
release handle. Manuallyopen and close the door. If
the dooris binding,call for garage door service. If
the dooris not bindingor unbalanced,adjust the
DOWN (close)force. See AdjustmentStep 2.
28
Adjustment Step 2 I
Adjust the Force I
Force adjustmentcontrols are located on the back
_anel of the opener. Force adjustmentsettings
regulate the amount of power requiredto open and
close the door.
The door will stopin the up direction if anything
interfereswith its travel. The doorwill reverse inthe
down directionif anything interfereswith its travel
(includingbinding or unbalanced doors).
If the forces are set too light,doortravel may be
interrupted by nuisance reversals in the down
directionand stops in the up direction.
Weather conditions can affect the door
movement, so occasional adjustment may be
needed.
The maximum force adjustment range is 260 degrees,
about 3/4 of a complete turn. Do notforce controls
beyond that point. Turn force adjustmentcontrols
with a screwdriver.
Adjustment Labe4
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.

How and When to Adjust the Forces
Test the DOWN (close) force
Grasp the door bottom when the door is about
halfway throughDOWN (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
holdor doesn't reverse, decrease the DOWN (close)
force by turningthe control counterclockwise.
Make 10 degree turn adjustmentsuntilthe door
reverses normally. After each adjustment, run the
opener througha complete cycle.
Test the UP (open) force
Grasp the door bottom when the door is about
halfway throughUP (open) travel. The door should
stop. If the door is hard to holdor doesn't stop,
decrease UP (open) force by turningthe control
counterclockwise,
Make 10 degree tum adjustmentsuntilthe door stops
easily.After each adjustment, runthe opener through
a complete travelcycle.
If the door doesn't open at leest5 feet
Increase UP (Open) force by turningthe control
clockwise.Make 10 degree turn adjustmentsuntil
door openscompletely. Re-adjustthe UP limitif
necessary.After each adjustment,run the opener
througha complete travel 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 adjustmentsuntilthe
doorcompletes a close cycle. Aftereach adjustment,
runthe opener througha complete travelcycle. Do
not increase the force beyond the minimum
amount required to close the door.
