tion),, The limit nut retaining bracket which holds the nuts
in place must be loosened before nuts can be turned.
CAUTION: Do not run opener before limit nut bracket is
secured in original positiom
1. The top nut controls closing limits_
2. The bottom nut controls opening limits..
3. One turn of the limit nut equals 3 inches of trolley travel.
4. All adjustments require complete turns.
D,. TO MAKE ADJUSTMENTS: Loosen limit nut bracket screw..
Slide bracket to the left
1. To increase UP limits-turn bottom nut upward.
2. To decrease UP limits-turn bottom nut downward

of the door as it is about halfway through downward travel.
Normally the door should reverse by this action.
If it is hard to hold, or doesn't reverse, loosen the clown force
screw one turn at a time until the door reverses normally. This
means it will not reverse at the end of a travel cycle, and will
reverse when moderately obstructed.

REMOTE INSTALLATION PROCEDURES: (1) Fasten
header bracket to a suitable support on ceiling (a 2x4 or
2x6 reinforcing plank nailed to joists, for example), Tile
support location should be the most convenient in line with
the door bracket and further inside the garage than tile
highest point of door travel.
(2) Follow procedures of Steps 3,4,5,6, and 7 by which
garage door opener is fastened to header bracket and ceiling
Increased distance between trolley and door bracket is
joined by 1 inch thin walled electrical metallic tubing
(EMT) conduit available at most electrical supply or hard-
ware stores,
(3) Run trolley to "Down" limit,, Close door, Measure
distance between holes for door arm clevis pins in door
bracket and trolley Subtract 24 inches,,
Remainder is desired length of EMT,, Cut EMT to this
length. Insert long end of curved door arm, and one end of
straight door arm into ends of conduit at least 4 inches,,
Flatten EMT at each end where bolt hole is needed for at-
taching to door arms, Drill 3/8 inch holes, Fasten with 3/8
inch by 7/8 inch screws, and 3/8 inch lock washers and nuts,,
Radio Controls
1 The radio control has two basic components:
=' A portable transmitter which sends a coded signal from an
automobile
= A receiver which is attached to a garage wall. It receives the coded
signal, and activates the garage door opener..
TRANSMITTER RECEIVER
FOR SERVICE - DO NOT ATTEMPT REPAIR OF RADIO
CONTROLS, If service becomes necessary, see instructions on
page 23 of manual, CovBr
2THE TRANSMITTER
= The transmitter, including a battery and push button switch, is "_ I,'_
contained in an attractive, high4mpact plastic case, A metal clip ".L ..... Battery
is provided for attaching the unit to an auto sun visor, Separate
transmitters can be installed in each of the vehicles using the
garage
3THE BATTERY Clip
The battery should operate for a time equal to its normal shelf fife (approximately one year), This may be shortened by
weather conditions° To avoid unexpected battery failure, replace it at least once a year. There is Iess possibility of cold
oO
weather failure if a new battery is installed in autumn, In regionswhere temperature extremes are below 0 F, and above 90 F,
mercury batteries assure the most reliable operation.
TO CHANGE BATTERY-Remove cover as indicated in accompanying illustration Disconnect battery from connector. CEip
new battery to connector. Replace cover,
