WARNING
An unbalanced garage door might not reverse
when required and someone under the door
could be seriously injured or killed.
If your garage door binds, sticks or is out of
balance, call for professional
garage door
service. Garage doors, door springs, cables,
pulleys, brackets and their hardware are under
extreme tension and can cause serious injury
or death. Do not try to loosen, move or adjust
them yourself!
Ropes left on a garage door could cause
someone to become entangled
and killed.
Remove all ropes connected to the door before
installing and operating the opener.
Identify the type and height of your door and any
special conditions that exist and any additional
materials that may be required by referring to the lists
on page 4 or page 5.
To avoid damage to the garage door and
opener, disable locks before installing and
operating the opener. Use a wood screw or nail
to hold locks in the "open"
(unlocked)
position.
Operation at other than 120V 60 Hz will cause
opener malfunction and damage.
Before you begin, complete the following test to
make sure your door is balanced, and is not
sticking or binding:
• Lift the door about halfway as shown• Release the
door. It should stay in place, supported entirely by
its springs.
• Raise and lower the door to see if there is any
binding or sticking.
Before you begin, survey your garage area to
see whether any of the conditions below apply
to your installation.

Connection to live wires or higher voltage may
cause serious injury from shock, burn or
electrocution.
Locate the door control within sight of the door
at a minimum height of 5 feet where small
children cannot reach, and away from all moving
aarts of the door and door hardware.
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.
The door control is typically attached directly to the
wall. If installing into drywall, drill 5/32" holes and
use the anchors provided. For pre-wired installations
(as in new home construction), Console models
may be mounted to a standard single gang box
(Figure 2).
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(s) or the remote control(s).

possible, only when the door is closed.
• Thread one end of the rope through the hole in
the top of the red handle so "NOTICE" reads right
side up as shown. Secure with an overhand knot.
The knot should be at least 1" from the end of
the rope to prevent slipping.
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.
• Thread the other end of the rope through the hole
in the release arm of the outer trolley.
• Adjust rope length so 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.

Requirements
To prevent electrocution
or fire, installation
and wiring must be in compliance with local
electrical and building codes.
To reduce the risk of electric shock, your garage
door opener has a grounding type plug with a third
]rounding pin. This plug will onlyfit into a grounding
type outlet.
Do NOTuse an extension cord, 2-wire adapter,
or change the plug in any way to make it fit
your outlet.
If the plug doesn't fit into the outlet you have,
contact a qualified electrician to install the proper
outlet.
To avoid installation difficulties,
do not run the opener at this time,
If permanent
wiring is required
by your local code, refer to the following
procedure:
Permanent
Wiring
Connections
To make a permanent connection through the
7/8" diameter hole in the top of the opener
(according to local code):

are the same for sectional
To protect small children, install the safety
reversing sensor so that the beam will be no
higher than 4"-6" above the garage floor.
Disconnect power to the garage door opener
before installing the safety reversing sensor.
The brackets mustbe securely fastened to a solid
surface such as the studs on either side of the door,
or add a piece of wood at each location if installing in
masonry construction.
Be sure power to the opener is disconnected.
The sending eye transmits an invisible light beam to
the receiving eye. The units can be installed on
either side of the garage 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) can interrupt the
beam while the door is closing. If it does, use a piece
of wood to build out each sensor mounting location to
the minimum depth required for light beam clearance.
Look at the label on the connector end of each case
to identify the sensors.
The brackets must be connected and fastened so
that the sending and receiving eyes face each other
as shown in Figure 1.
If an obstruction breaks the light beam while the
garage door is closing, the door will stop and
reverse to full open position and the opener lights
will flash for 5 seconds.

• Electric power to the opener.
• A short in the white or white/black wires. These
can occur under staples or at screw terminal
connections.
• Incorrect wiring between sensors and opener.
• An open wire (wire break).
Aligning the Safety Sensors
• Plug in the opener. Green indicator lights in both
the sending and receiving eyes will g/owsteadilyif
wiring connections and alignment are correct.
2. If the sending eye indicator light glows steadilybut
the receiving eye indicator light doesn't:
• Check alignment.
• Check for an open wire to the receiving eye.
The sending eye indicator light will glow regardless
of alignment or obstruction. If the indicator light is
off, dim, or flickering in the receiving eye (and the
invisible light beam path is not obstructed),
alignment is required,
3. If the receiving eye indicator light is dim, realign
either sensor.
• Loosen the sendingeye wing nut and readjust,
aiming directly at the receiving eye. Lock in place.
NOTE: When the invisible beam path is obstructed or
misa/igned while the door is closing, the door will
reverse. If the door is already open, it will not close.
The opener lights will flash 10 times. (_ifbulbs are not
installed, 10 clicks are audible.) See page 21.
• Loosen the receiving eye wing nut and adjust

A horizontal brace should be long enough to be secured to 2 vertical supports. A vertical brace should
cover the height of the top panel.
The illustration shows one piece of angle iron as the horizontal brace. For the vertical brace, 2 pieces of
angle iron are used to create a "U"-shaped support. The best solution is to check with your garage door
manufacturer for an opener installation door reinforcement kit.

Connect the door arm to the trolley.
• Close the door and join the curved arm to the connector hole in the trolley with the remaining clevis pin. It may
be necessary to lift the door slightly to make the connection.
• Secure with a ring fastener.
• Run the opener through a complete travet cycle. If the door has a slight "backward" slant in full open position
as shown in the illustration, decrease the UP limit until the door is parallel to the floor.

Adjustment Step 1
Adjust
the UP and DOWN
Limits
Do not make any limit adjustments until the
safety reversing sensors are completely
installed.
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.
Limit adjustment settings regulate the points at
which the door will stopwhen moving up or down.
The door will stop in the up direction if anything
interferes with door travel. The door will reverse in
the down direction if anything interferes with the
door travel (including binding or unbalanced doors).
To operate the opener, press the Door Control push
button. 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 (See page 30).

Read the procedures carefully before proceeding to
Adjustment Step 2, Use a screwdriver to make limit
adjustments.
How and When to Adjust the Limits
• If the door does not open completely, but
opens at leastfive feet:
If you have adjusted the door arm to the maximum
length and the door still will not close completely,
lower the header bracket. See Installation Step 1,
pages 12 and 13.
Increase up travel. Turn the UP limit adjustment
screw clockwise. One turn equals 2" of travel.
NOTE: To prevent the trolley from hitting the
cover protection bolt, keep a minimum distance
of 2-4" between the trolley and the bolt.
• If door does not open at least 5 feet:
• If the opener reverses in fully closed position:
Decrease down travel. Turn the DOWN limit
adjustment screw clockwise. One turn equals 2" of
travel.
Adjust the UP (open) force as explained in
Adjustment Step 2.
• If the door reverses when closing and there is
no visible interference to travel cycle:
• If the door does not close completely:
Increase down travel. Turn the DOWN limit
adjustment screw counterclockwise. One turn
equals 2" of travel.
If the opener lights are flashing, the Safety Reversing
Sensors are either not installed, misaligned, or
obstructed. See Troubleshooting, page 23.
Test the door for binding: Pull the manual release
handle. Manually open and close the door. If the door
is binding, call for garage door service. If the door is
not binding or unbalanced, adjust the DOWN (close)
force. See Adjustment Step 2.
If the door still won't close completely and the trolley
bumps into the pulley bracket (see page 4 or 5), try
lengthening the door arm, (see page 26).

the Force
Too much force on the door 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. 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.
Force adjustment controls are located on the right
side panel of the opener. Force adjustment settings
regulate the amount of power required to open and
close the door.
The door will stop in the up direction if anything
interferes with its travel. The door will reversein the
down direction if anything interferes with its travel
(including binding 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.
Force Adjustment
Controls
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.

Make 10 degree turn adjustments until the door stops
easily. After each adjustment, run the opener through
a complete travel cycle.
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 one-inch
obstruction. See page 30. if the door is hard to
hold or doesn't reverse, decrease the DOWN (close)
force by turning the control counterclockwise.
if the door doesn't open at least5 feet
Increase UP (Open) force by turning the control
clockwise. Make 10 degree turn adjustments until
door opens completely. Re-adjust the UP limit if
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
Test the UP (open) force
Increase DOWN (close) force by turning the control
clockwise. Make 10 degree turn 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.
Grasp the door bottom when the door is about
halfway through UP (open) travel. The door should

IMPORTANT
SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
To reduce the risk of severe injury or death to persons:
1. READ AND FOLLOW ALL INSTRUCTIONS.
5. If possible, use the emergency release only
when the door is in a closed position. Caution
should be taken whenever the disconnect cord
is actuated with the door open. Weak or broken
springs may cause the door to fall rapidly,
causing injury or death to persons.
6. KEEP GARAGE DOORS PROPERLY
BALANCED. See page 3. An improperly
balanced door may not reverse when required
and could result in severe injury or death.
Repairs to cables, spring assemblies and other
hardware must be made by a professional
garage door person.
2. Do not permit children either to operate or to
play with the opener. Keep remote control in a
location inaccessible to children.
3. Operate opener only when the door is in full
view and free from any obstruction. Keep the
door in sight until it is completely closed. NO
ONE SHOULD CROSS THE PATH OF THE
MOVING DOOR.
4. Check safety reversal system monthly. See
page 30. The garage door MUSTreverae on
contact with a one-inch (or a 2x4 board laid
flat) object placed on the floor. If an adjustment
is made to either the force or the limit of travel,
both adjustments may be needed and the
safety reversal system must be checked.
Failure to properly adjust the opener may
result in severe injury or death.
7. Disconnect the electric power to the garage
door opener before making any repairs or
removing the covers.

Having a Problem?
Situation
Probable
Cause and Solution
The opener doesn't
operate from either
the Door Control or
the remote control:
1. Does the opener have electric power?. Plug a lamp intothe outlet. If it doesn't light,
check the fuse box or the circuit breaker. (Some outlets are controlled by a door switch.)
2. Have you disabled all door locks? Review installation instruction wamings on Page 11.
3. Is there a build-up of ice or snow under the door? The door may be frozen to the
ground. Remove any restriction.
4. The garage door spring may be broken. Have it replaced.
5. Repeated operation may have tripped the overload protector in the motor. Wait
15 minutes. Try again.
Opener operates
from the remote
control, but not from
the Door Control:
1. Is the Door Control lit? If not, remove the bell wire from the opener terminal screws.
Short the red and white terminals by touching both terminals at the same time with a
piece of wire. If the opener runs, check for a faulty wire connection at the Door
Control, a short under the staples, or a broken wire.
2. Are the wiring connections correct? Review Step 6, page 18.
The door operates
from the Door
Control, but not from
the remote control:
1. Is any door push button flashing? If your model has the Lock feature, make sure the
lock is Off.
2. Your opener needs to re-learn a remote control code. Refer to Instructions on the
opener panel.
3. Program the receiver to match the remote control code.
4. Repeat the receiver programming procedure with all remote controls.
The remote control
has short range:
1. Change the location of the remote control in your car.
2. Check to be sure the antenna on the side or back panel of opener extends fully
downward.
3+ Some installations may have shorter range due to a metal door, foil backed
insulation, or metal garage siding. (Antenna Extender Kits 41A3504)
Opener noise is
disturbing in living
quarters of home:
If operational noise is a problem because of proximity of the opener to the living
quarters, the Vibration Isolator Kit 41A3263 can be installed. This kit was designed to
minimize vibration to the house and is easy to install.
The garage door
opens and closes
by itself,"
1. Be sure that all remote control push buttons are off.
2. Remove the bell wire from the Door Control terminals and operate from the remote
control only. If this solves the problem, the Door Control is faulty (replace), or there is
an intermittent short on the wire between the Door Control and the opener.
3. Clear memory and reprogram all remote controls.
The door doesn't
open completely:
1. Is something obstructing the door? Remove the obstruction or repair the door.
2. If the door has been working properly but now doesn't open all the way, increase the
up force. See page 29.
3. If door opens at least 5 feet, the travel limits may need to be increased. One turn
equals 2 inches of travel. See page 28+
Repeat the safety reverse test after the adjustment is complete.
The door stops but
doesn't close

increase the force to operate the opener.
The opener motor
hums briefly, then
won't work:
1. The garage door springs are broken. See above.
2. If the problem occurs on the first operation of the opener, door may be locked. Disable
the doorlock. If the belt was removed and reinstalled, the motor may be out of phase.
Remove the belt; cycle the motor to the down position. Observe the drive sprocket.
When it turns in a clockwise direction and stops in the down position, reinstall the belt.
Repeat the safety reverse test after the adjustment is complete.
The opener won't
operate due to
power failure:
1. Use the emergency release to disconnect the trolley. The door can be opened and closed
manually. When the power is restored, press the Door Control push button and trolley will
automatically reconnect (unless trolley is in lockout position.) See page 32.
2. The Emergency Key Release accessory (for use on garages with no service door)
disconnects the trolley from outside the garage in case of power failure.
The belt droops or
sags:
It is normal for the belt to droop slightly in the closed door position. Use the manual release
rope and handle to disconnect the trolley. If no droop remains when the outer trolley is
disengaged, no adjustments are needed.
