Planning
Identify the type and height of your garage door. Survey
your garage area to see if any of the conditions below
apply to your installation. Additional materials may be
required. You may find it helpful to refer back to this page
and the accompanying illustrations as you proceed with
the installation of your opener.
Depending on your requirements there are several
installation steps which may call for materials or hardware
not included in the carton.
• Installation Step 1 - Look at the wall or ceiling above
the garage door. The header bracket must be securely
fastened to structural supports.
• Installation Step 5 - Do you have a finished ceiling in
your garage? If so, a support bracket and additional
fastening hardware may be required.
• Installation Step 10- Depending upon garage
construction, extension brackets or wood blocks may be
needed to install sensors.

• Look at the garage door where it meets the floor. Any
gap between the floor and the bottom of the door must
not exceed 1/4" (6 mm). Otherwise, the safety reversal
system may not work properly. See Adjustment Step 3.
Floor or door should be repaired.

SECTIONAL DOOR INSTALLATIONS
• Do you have a steel, aluminum, fiberglass or glass
panel door? If so, horizontal and vertical
reinforcement is required (Installation Step 11).
• The opener should be installed above the center of the
door. If there is a torsion spring or center bearing plate
in the way of the header bracket, it may be installed
within 4 feet (1.22 m) to the left or right of the door
center. See Installation Steps 1 and 11.
• If your door is more than 7 feet (2.13 m) high, see rail
extension kits listed on Accessories page.

• Installation Step 10 -Alternate floor mounting of the
safety reversing sensor will require hardware not
provided.
• Do you have an access door in addition to the garage
door? If not, Model 53702 Emergency Key Release is
required. See Accessories page.

(Continued)

ONE-PIECE DOOR INSTALLATIONS
• Generally, a one-piece door does not require
reinforcement. If your door is lightweight, refer to the
information relating to sectional doors in Installation
Step 11.
• Depending on your door's construction, you may need
additional mounting hardware for the door bracket
(Step 11).

Without a properly working safety reversal system, persons
(particularly small children) could be SERIOUSLYINJUREDor
KILLED by a closing garage door.
• The gap between the bottom of the garage door and the floor
MUST NOT exceed 1/4" (6 mm). Otherwise, the safety
reversal system may not work properly.
• The floor or the garage door MUST be repaired to eliminate
the gap.

the Rail & Install

the Trolley

To avoid installation difficulties, do not run the garage
door opener until instructed to do so.

To prevent INJURYfrom pinching, keep hands and fingers
away from the joints while assembling the rail.

The front rail has a cut out "window" at the door end (see
illustration). The hole above this window is larger on
the top of the rail than on the bottom. A smaller hole
3-1/2" (8.9 cm) away is close to the rail edge. Rotate the
back rail so it has a similar hole close to the opposite
edge, about 4-3/4" (12 cm) from the far end.

3. Place the motor unit on packing material to protect the
cover, and rest the back end of the rail on top. For
convenience, put a support under the front end of the
rail.

1. Remove the straight door arm and hanging bracket
packaged inside the front rail and set aside for
Installation Step 5 and 12. NOTE: To prevent INJURY
while unpacking the rail carefully remove the straight
door arm stored within the rail section.

5. Check to be sure there are 4 plastic wear pads inside
the inner trolley. If they became loose during shipping,
check all packing material. Snap them back into
position as shown.

4. As a temporary stop, insert a screwdriver into the hole
10" (25 cm) from the front end of the rail, as shown.

6. Slide the trolley assembly along the rail from the back
end to the screwdriver.

2. Align the rail sections on a flat surface as shown and
slide the tapered ends into the larger ones. Tabs along
the side will lock into place.

Requirements

To prevent possible SERIOUSINJURYor DEATHfrom
electrocution or fire:

To avoid installation difficulties, do not run the opener
at this time.

• Be sure power is not connected to the opener, and
disconnect power to circuit BEFOREremoving cover to
establish permanent wiring connection.
• Garagedoor installation and wiring MUST be in compliance
with all local electrical and building codes.
• NEVERuse an extension cord, 2-wire adapter, or change
plug in any way to make it fit outlet. Be sure the opener is
grounded.

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.

Be sure power is not connectedto the garage door opener
BEFOREinstalling the safety reversing sensor.
To prevent SERIOUSINJURYor DEATHfrom a closing
garage door:
• Correctly connect and align the safety reversing sensor. This
required safety device MUST NOTbe disabled.
• Install the safety reversing sensor so beam is NO HIGHER
than 6" (15 cm) above garage floor.

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 properly connected and aligned, the sensor will
detect an obstacle in the path of its electronic beam. The
sending eye (with an amber 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 lights will flash 10 times.

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 units must be installed inside the garage so that the
sending and receiving eyes face each other across the
door, no more than 6" (15 cm) 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 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.

The mounting brackets are designed to clip onto the track
of sectional garage doors without additional hardware.

• Slide a 1/4"-20xl/2" carriage bolt head into the slot on
each sensor. Use wing nuts to fasten sensors to
brackets, with lenses pointing toward each other across
the door. Be sure the lens is not obstructed by a bracket
extension (Figure 5).

• Finger tighten the wing nuts.
• Run the wires from both sensors to the opener. Use
insulated staples to secure wire to wall and ceiling.

TROUBLESHOOTING
SENSORS

• Strip 7/16" (11 mm) of insulation from each set of wires.
Separate white and white/black wires sufficiently to
connect to the opener quick-connect terminals. Twist
like colored wires together. Insert wires into quickconnect holes: white to white and white/black to grey
(Figure 6).

THE SAFETY REVERSING

1. If the sending eye indicator light does not glow steadily
after installation, check for:
• Electric power to the opener.
• A short in the white or white/black wires. These can
occur at staples, or at opener connections.
• Incorrect wiring between sensors and opener.
• A broken wire.

ALIGNING THE SAFETY REVERSING SENSORS
• Plug in the opener. The indicator lights in both the
sending and receiving eyes will glow steadily if wiring
connections and alignment are correct.

2. If the sending eye indicator light glows steadily but the
receiving eye indicator light doesn't:
• Check alignment.

The sending eye amber indicator light will glow regardless
of alignment or obstruction. If the green indicator light in
the receiving eye is off, dim, or flickering (and the invisible
light beam path is not obstructed), alignment is required.

• Check for an open wire to the receiving eye.
3. If the receiving eye indicator light is dim, realign
either sensor.

• Loosen the sending eye wing nut and readjust, aiming
directly at the receiving eye. Lock in place.

NOTE: When the invisible beam path is obstructed or
misaligned while the door is closing, the door will reverse.
If the door is already open, it will not close. The opener
lights will blink 10 times. See page 20.

• Loosen the receiving eye wing nut and adjust sensor
until it receives the sender's beam. When the green
indicator light glows steadily, tighten the wing nut.

Limits

Without a properly installed safety reversal system, persons
(particularly small children) could be SERIOUSLYINJUREDor
KILLED by a closing garage door.
• Incorrect adjustment of garage door travel limits will
interfere with proper operation of safety reversal system.
• If one control (force or travel limits) is adjusted, the other
control may also need adjustment.
• After ANY adjustments are made, the safety reversal system
MUST be tested. Door MUST reverse on contact with 1-1/2"
high (3.8 cm) object (or 2x4 laid flat) on floor.

Limit adjustment settings regulate the points at which the
door will stop when moving up or down.
To operate the opener, press the Door Control push bar.
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
(Adjustment Step 3, page 29).
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.

To prevent damage to vehicles, be sure fully open door
provides adequate clearance.

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. 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.

LABEL

• If the door does not close completely:
Increase down travel. Turn the down limit adjustment
screw counterclockwise. One turn equals 2" (5 cm) of
travel.

• If the door reverses when closing and there is no
visible interference to travel cycle:

If door still won't close completely and the trolley bumps
into the pulley bracket (page 4), try lengthening the door
arm (page 25) and decreasing the down limit.

If the opener lights are flashing, the Safety Reversing
Sensors are either not installed, misaligned, or
obstructed. See Troubleshooting, page 22.

• If the opener reverses in fully closed position:

Test the door for binding: Pull the emergency release
handle. Manually open and close the door. If the door is
binding or unbalanced, call for a trained door systems
technician. If the door is balanced and not binding,
adjust the DOWN (close) force. See Adjustment Step 2.

Decrease down travel. Turn the down limit adjustment
screw clockwise. One turn equals 2" (5 cm) of travel.

Force

Without a properly installed safety reversal system, persons
(particularly small children) could be SERIOUSLYINJUREDor
KILLED by a closing garage door.
• Too much force on garage door will interfere with proper
operation of safety reversal system.
• NEVERincrease force beyond minimum amount required to
close garage door.
• NEVERuse force adjustments to compensate for a binding
or sticking garage door.
• If one control (force or travel limits) is adjusted, the other
control may also need adjustment.
• After ANY adjustments are made, the safety reversal system
MUST be tested. Door MUST reverse on contact with 1-1/2"
high (3.8 cm) object (or 2x4 laid flat) on floor.

Force adjustment controls are located on the back panel
of the motor unit. Force adjustment settings regulate the
amount of power required to open and close the door.
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 force adjustment range is about 3/4 of a
complete turn. Do not force controls beyond that
point. Turn force adjustment controls with a screwdriver.
NOTE: 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.

HOW AND WHEN TO ADJUST THE FORCES

Force Adjustment
Controls

1. Test the DOWN (close) force
Back Panel

• 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 1-1/2" (3.8 cm)
obstruction. See Adjustment Step 3, page 29. If the
door is hard to hold or doesn't reverse,
DECREASE the DOWN (close) force by turning
the control counterclockwise. Make small adjustments
until the door reverses normally. After each
adjustment, run the opener through a complete cycle.

I

• 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 small 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.

2. 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 small adjustments until the
door stops easily and opens fully. After each
adjustment, run the opener through a complete
travel cycle.

Open Force

• If the door doesn't open at least 5 feet (1.5 m),
INCREASE UP (open) force by turning the control

Your Security+ ®opener and hand-held remote control
have been factory-set to a matching code which changes
with each use, randomly accessing over 100 billion new
codes. Your opener will operate with up to eight
Security+ ® remote controls and one Security+ ®Keyless
Entry System. If you purchase a new remote, or if you
wish to deactivate any remote, follow the instructions in
the Programming section.

If the sensor is not installed, or is misaligned, the door
won't close from a hand-held remote. However, you can
close the door with the Door Control, the Outdoor Key
Switch, or Keyless Entry, if you activate them until down
travel is complete. If you release them too soon, the door
will reverse.
The opener lights will turn on under the following
conditions: when the opener is initially plugged in; when
power is restored after interruption; when the opener is
activated. They will turn off automatically after 4-1/2
minutes. Bulb size is A19. Power is 100 watts maximum.
Lights will also turn on when someone walks through the
open garage door.

Activate your opener with any of the following:
• The hand-held Remote Control: Hold the large push
button down until the door starts to move.
• The wall-mounted Door Control: Hold the push button
or bar down until the door starts to move.
• The Keyless Entry (See Accessories): If provided with
your garage door opener, it must be programmed
before use. See Programming.
When the opener is activated (with the safety
reversing sensor correctly installed and aligned)
1. If open, the door will close. If closed, it will open.
2. If closing, the door will reverse.
3. If opening, the door will stop.
4. If the door has been stopped in a partially open

3. My door reverses for no apparent reason: Repeat
safety reverse test after adjustments to force or travel
limits. The need for occasional adjustment for the force
and limit settings is normal. Weather conditions in
particular can affect door travel.
• Manually check door for balance or any binding
problems.

6. My motor unit hums briefly:
• First verify that the trolley is against the stop bolt.

• Refer to Adjustment Step 2, Adjust the Force.

• Release the door from the opener by pulling the
Emergency Release Rope.

4. My door reverses for no apparent reason after fully
closing and touching the floor: Repeat safety reverse
test after adjustments to force or travel limits. The need
for occasional adjustment for the force and limit settings
is normal. Weather conditions in particular can affect
door travel.

• Manually bring the door to a closed position.
• Loosen the chain by adjusting the outer nut 4 to 5
turns. This relieves the tension.
• Run the motor unit from the remote control or door
control. The trolley should travel towards the door and
stop. If the trolley re-engages with the door, pull the
Emergency Release Rope to disengage.

• Refer to Adjustment Step 1, Adjust the UP and DOWN
Travel Limits. Decrease down travel by turning down
limit adjustment screw clockwise.

• Decrease the UP travel by turning the UP Travel
adjustment screw 2 full turns away from the arrow.
• Re-tighten the outer nut so the chain is a 1/4" (6 mm)
above the base of the rail. (When the door is
reconnected and closed, the chain will sag. This is
normal.)

5. My lights will not turn off when door is open:
• The garage door opener is equipped with a security
light feature. This feature activates the light on when
the safety sensor beam has been obstructed.

• If the trolley does not move away from the bolt, repeat
the steps above.
