IMPORTANT

READ PRIOR TO ANY DOOR OPERATION
1. Read manual and warnings carefully.
2. Keep the door in good working condition.
Periodically lubricate all moving parts of
door.
3. If door has a sensing edge, check
operations monthly. Make any necessary
repairs to keep it functional.
4. AT LEAST twice a year, manually operate
door.
The Door should open and close freely. If it
does not, the door must be taken out of

Section 3: Critical Installation Information

Job Site Issues to Consider/Concerns

The following list of items should be considered prior to selecting an operator for a given job site.
1-Available power supply.
2-Type of door.
3-Potential operator mounting obstructions. Items to consider include, but are not limited to: side room, room above door shaft, room below door shaft, available mounting
surface integrity, power supply location, and convenient chain hoist and release cable positioning.
4-Size of door for appropriate operator torque and door travel speed selection.
5-Operator mounting environment. Items to consider include operator location and dampness, dustiness and corrosiveness of the location.
6-Door activation needs/requirements. Examples include 3 button control stations, 1 button control stations, radio controls, pull cords, loop detectors, photoelectric controls,
key switches, etc. See “Entrapment Protection” section below.
7-Interlock switches are required under certain conditions for doors with pass doors and door locks. See page 5.5.
8-Accessory equipment. Examples are reversing edges and/or photocell beams (required for doors set to operate as momentary contact),, auxiliary control relays, warning lights, etc.

ENTRAPMENT PROTECTION

The installation of a fail safe external reversing device (such as a monitored reversing edge or photocell system, etc.) is required on all momentary contact electronically
operated commercial doors. If such a reversing device is not installed, the operator will revert to a constant contact control switch for operation (Closing only).
The Reversing Devices currently UL Approved with are:
1) MillerEdge ME, MT and CPT series monitored edge sensors used in combination with Timer-Close Module P/N OPABTCX.S, or OPAKMEIGX.S INTERFACE MODULE.
2) Residential Safe-T-Beam® Monitored Photocells from The Genie® Company, model OSTB-BX (P/N 38176R).
3) Series II Commercial Safe-T-Beam®, Monitored Photocells P/N OPAKPE.S.
4) Series II Commercial Safe-T-Beam®, NEMA4 Monitored Photocells P/N OPAKPEN4GX.S.

Sectional Doors—Chain Couple
The Wall Mount Operator can be assembled for right hand
mounting above or below the door shaft. Fig.5A.
NOTE: The operator output shaft extends 3-7/8" on each side of the
operator frame.
1) Attach 12 tooth sprocket to operator output shaft.
2) Align keyways and insert key into sprocket and output shaft
keyway. Do not tighten set screw at this time.
3) Attach door sprocket to door shaft. Do not tighten

7) Be certain operator output shaft is parallel with door shaft.
8) Align chain and secure operator to wall or mounting pad. Fig.5B.
9) Tighten operator sprocket set screws.
INSTALLATION TIP:
While sprocket set screws are loose, if possible, manually operate door to
help align chain. A properly tensioned drive chain should deflect no
more than 1/2" when thumb pressure is applied mid-way between the 2
sprockets. While there is no hard and fast rule governing chain tension, it
must be tight enough to prevent clicking, popping and jumping the
teeth of the sprocket. The 1/2" guideline will insure sufficient tension.
NOTE: If using slotted mounting holes to mount unit, you must use at
least 2 lockdown holes in opposite corners to firmly mount unit to wall. Fig. 5B

Clutch Adjustment

Fig. 8

The o perators have a friction style clutch that can be adjusted.
NOTE: The clutch is intended to provide protection for the door, the
operator and associated equipment. It is not intended for entrapment
protection.
To Adjust the Clutch
1) Decrease the tension on the clutch until the operator will not lift
the door.
Turning the adjustment castle nut counter-clockwise will
decrease tension and clockwise will increase tension.
2) Gradually increase tension until the operator will perform a
complete open and close cycle without clutch slippage.
3) Insert a cotter pin through the adjustment castle nut and bend a
leg of the cotter pin to hold it in place.
NOTE: Periodically check the system for proper clutch action. If clutch
starts to slip after working properly for some time , check manual
operation of door BEFORE adjusting clutch. The door may not be
operating freely or the counterbalance spring may need adjusting.
Repairs and adjustments must be performed by a trained service
representative using proper tools and instructions.

Sensing Edge Switch Installation
Figure 12 shows an example of a typical sensing edge installation. Left hand side is shown but
right hand is a mirror image of this.
1A) If wiring from sensing edge switch to operator is coiled cord or 2 wire jacketed cord:
• Install junction box 12” above the center of the door opening on same side as
sensing switch.
• Secure one end of cord to junction box using a cable clamp.
1B) If connection is to be made through a take up reel cord:
• Install on same side as sensing edge switch and above door opening and
slightly to the side.
• Install junction box adjacent to take up reel and route the stationary cord from
the reel to the box and secure with a cable clamp.
NOTE: Do not use a take-up-reel on a monitored edge. They have slip connections in them
that momentarily break contact which causes false reversals.
2) Secure other end of cord (straight, coiled or reel) to sensing edge switch
enclosure using a cable clamp.
3) Connect wires of cord to sensing edge switch using wire nuts or other suitable
wire connectors.
4) Run a straight 2 wire cord from the junction box (Step 1) to the operator
electrical box.
• Secure using cable clamp on each end.
5) Join wires in cord from operator to wires in cord from switch using wire nuts or
other suitable wire connectors.
6A) Monitored sensing or reversing edge connects to optional Timer-Close Module
terminals shown in Fig. 13A.
6B) Monitored sensing edge connects to main cirsuit board ODC STB terminals
using the optional OPAKMEIGX.S as shown in Fig. 13B.
7) Operate the door to make certain cord is free to travel and does not become
snared during door opening or closing.
• Check sensing edge switch for proper operation.

WARNING: Actuating the operator using constant contact on the CLOSE
button will override external reversing devices, including sensing edges or
reversing edges.
