above the garage door.The header bracket must
be securely fastened to structuralsupports.
•InstallationStep 5 - Do you have a finished ceiling
in your garage? If so, a supportbracket and
additionalfastening hardware may be required.
•InstallationStep 10- Depending upongarage
construction,extensionbrackets or wood blocks
may be needed to installsensors.
•InstallationStep 10 -Alternate floor mountingof
the safety reversing sensor will require hardware
not provided.
Do you have an access door in additionto the
garage door? If not, Model 53702 Emergency Key
Release is required. See Acoessodes page.
Look at the garage door where it meets the floor.
Any gap between the floor and the bottom of the

Electrical Requirements
To avoid installation difficulties, do not run the
opener at this time.
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.
If permanent wiring Is required by your local
code, refer to the following procedure.
To make a permanent connection through the 7/8"
hole in the top of the motor unit:
• Remove the motor unit cover screws and set the
cover aside.
•Remove the attached 3-prong cord
• Connect the black (line) wire to the screw on the
brass terminal;the white (neutral) wire to the screw
on the silver terminal; and the groundwire to the
green ground screw The opener must be
grounded.

Install 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.
IMPORTANT INFORMATION ABOUT
THE SAFETY REVERSING SENSOR
When properlyconnected and aligned, the sensor
will detect an obstacle in the path of its electronic
beam. The sending eye (withan orange indicator
light)transmits an invisiblelightbeam to the
receiving eye (with a green indicatorlight). If an
obstructionbreaks the lightbeam while the door is
closing,the door will stop and reverse to full open
position,and the opener lightswill flash 10 times.
The units must be installed insidethe garage so that
the sending and receiving eyes face each other
acrossthe door, no higher than 6" above the floor.
Either can be installedon the left or dght of the door
as long as the sun never shines directlyinto the
receiving eye lens.
The mountingbrackets are designed to clip onto the
track of sectionalgarage doors withoutadditional
hardware.

in one of three ways, as follows.
Garage door track installation (preferred):
• Slip the curved arms overthe rounded edge of
each door track, with the curved arms facing the
door. 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 in Figure 1.
If your door track will not supportthe bracket
securely, wall installationis recommended.
Wall installation:
• Place the bracket against the wall withcurved arms
facing the door. Be sure there is enough clearance
for the sensor beam to be unobstructed.
•If additional depth is needed, an extension bracket
(see Accessodes) or wood blocks can be used.
•Use bracket mountingholes as a template to locate
and ddll (2) 3/16" diameter pilotholes on the wall at
each side of the door, no higher than 6" above the
floor.
•Attach brackets to wall with lag screws
(not provided).
•If usingextension brackets or wood blocks,adjust
rightand left assemblies to the same distance out
from the mountingsurface. Make sure all door
hardware obstructionsare cleared.
Floor installation:
•Use wood blocks or extension brackets (see
Accessories) to elevate sensor bracketsso the

•Slide a 114"-20x112"carriage bolt head into the slot
on each sensor, Use wing nuts to fasten sensors to
brackets, with lenses pointingtoward each other
across the door. Be sure the lens is not obstructed
by a bracket extension (Figure 4).
•Finger tighten the wing nuts.
•Run the wires from both sensors to the opener. Use
insulated staplesto secure wire to wall and ceiling.
•Strip 7/16" of insulationfrom each set of wires.
Separate white and white/black wires sufficientlyto
connect to the opener quick-connectterminals.
Twist like coloredwires together. Insert wires into

AUGNING THE SAFETY SENSORS
•Plug in the opener. The indicator lightsin both the
sending and receiving eyes will glow steadily if
winng connectionsand alignment are correct.
The sending eye orange indicatorlight will glow
regardless of alignment or obstruction.If the green
indicatorlight in the receiving eye is off, dim, or
flickering (and the invisiblelightbeam path is not
obstructed),alignment is required.
•Loosenthe sending eye wing nut and readjust,
aimingdirectly at the receiving eye. Lock in place.
•Loosen the receiving eye wing nut and adjust

TROUBLESHOOTING THE SAFETY SENSORS
1. If the sending eye indicatorlightdoes not glow
steadily after installation,check for:
• Electdcpower to the opener.
•A short in the white or white/black wires. These
can occur at staples, or at opener connections.
•Incorrectwiring between sensors and opener.
•A brokenwire.
2. If the sending eye indicatorlight glows steadilybut
the receivingeye indicatorlightdoesn't:
•Check alignment.
•Check for an open wire to the receivingeye.
3. If the receivingeye indicatorlightis dim, realign
either sensor.
NOTE: When the invisiblebeam path is obstructed
or misalignedwhile the door is closing,the door will
reverse. If the dooris already open, it willnot close.

ADJUSTMENT STEP 2
Adjust the Force
Force adjustmentcontrolsare located on the right
side panel of the motor unit. Force adjustment
settings regulatethe amount of power requiredto
open and closethe door.
If the forces are set too light, door travel may be
interruptedby nuisance reversals in the down
directionand stops in the up direction,Weather
conditionscan affectthe doormovement, so
occasional adjustmentmay be needed,
The maximum force adjustment range is about
3/4 of a complete turn. Do not force controls
beyond that point. Turn force adjustmentcontrols
with ascrewdriver.
NOTE: ff anything interfereswith the door's upward
travel, ff will stop. If anything interferes withthe
door's downward travel (includingbindingor
unbalanced doors), it will reverse.
HOW AND WHEN TO ADJUST THE FORCES
1. Test the DOWN (close) force
• Grasp the door bottomwhen the door is about
halfway throughDOWN (close) travel. The door
should reverse. Reversal halfway through down
travel does not guarantee reversal on a one-inch
obstruction.See Adjustment Step 3, page 30.
If the door is hard to hold or doesn't reverse,
DECREASE the DOWN (close)force by turning
the controlcounterclockwise.Make small
adjustmentsuntilthe door reverses normally.
After each adjustment, run the opener through
a complete cycle.
•If the door reverses during the down (close)
cycle end the opener lights aren't flashing,
INCREASE DOWN (close) force by turningthe
controlclock'wise.Make smalladjustmentsuntil
the door completes aclosecycle. After each
adjustment, run the opener through a complete
travel cycle. Do notincrease the force beyond
the minimumamount required to close the door.
2. Test the UP (open) force
•Grasp the door bottom when the door is about
halfwaythrough 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. Make small
adjustmentsuntilthe door stops easily and
opens fully. After each adjustment, run the
opener through a completetravel cycle.
•If the door doesn't open at least 5 feet,
INCREASE UP (open) force by tuming the
control clockwise. Make small adjustments until
door opens completely. Readjust the UP limit if
necessary.After each adjustment, run the
opener through acomplete travel cycle.
