Preparing your garage door
Before you begin:
• Disable locks.
• Remove any ropes connected to garage door.
• Complete the following test to make sure your garage door is
balanced and is not sticking or binding:
1. Lift the door about halfway as shown. Release the door. If
balanced, it should stay in place, supported entirely by its
springs.
2. Raise and lower the door to see if there is any binding or
sticking.
If your door binds, sticks, or is out of balance, call a trained door
systems technician.
To prevent possible SERIOUS INJURY or DEATH:
• ALWAYS call a trained door systems technician if garage door
binds, sticks, or is out of balance. An unbalanced garage door
may NOT reverse when required.
• NEVER try to loosen, move or adjust garage door, door
springs, cables, pulleys, brackets or their hardware, ALL of
which are under EXTREME tension.
• Disable ALL locks and remove ALL ropes connected to garage
door BEFORE installing and operating garage door opener to
avoid entanglement.
To prevent damage to garage door and opener:
• ALWAYS disable locks BEFORE installing and operating the
opener.
• ONLY operate garage door opener at 230V, 50 Hz to avoid

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
fi nd 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 fi nished ceiling in your
garage? If so, a support bracket and additional fastening
hardware may be required.
• Do you have an access door in addition to the garage door?
If not, Model 1702E Outside Quick Release is required. See
Accessories page.
• Look at the garage door where it meets the fl oor. Any gap
between the fl oor and the bottom of the door must not exceed
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, fi berglass or glass panel
door? If so, horizontal and vertical reinforce ment is required
(Installation Step 10).
• 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 1.2 m to the left or
right of the door center. See Installation Steps 1 and 10.
SECTIONAL DOOR INSTALLATION
Horizontal and vertical reinforcement
is needed for lightweight garage doors
(fiberglass, steel, aluminum, door with
glass panels, etc.). See page 24 for details.

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 10.
• Depending on your door’s construction, you may need
additional mounting hardware for the door bracket (Step 10).
ONE-PIECE DOOR WITHOUT TRACK
Without a properly working safety reversal system, persons
(particularly small children) could be SERIOUSLY INJURED or
KILLED by a closing garage door.
• The gap between the bottom of the garage door and the fl oor
MUST NOT exceed 6 mm. Otherwise, the safety reversal
system may NOT work properly.
• The fl oor or the garage door MUST be repaired to eliminate
the gap.

1. Close the door and mark the inside vertical centerline of the
garage door.
2. Extend the line onto the header wall above the door.
You can fasten the header bracket within 1.2 m of the left
or right of the door center only if a torsion spring or center
bearing plate is in the way; or you can attach it to the
ceiling (see page 17) when clearance is minimal. (It may
be mounted on the wall upside down if necessary, to gain
approximately 1 cm.)
If you need to install the header bracket on a 38 mm board
(on wall or ceiling), use lag screws (not provided) to securely
fasten the 38 mm board to structural supports as shown here
and on page 16.
3. Open your door to the highest point of travel as shown. Draw an
inter secting horizontal line on the header wall 5 cm above the
high point. This height will provide travel clearance for the top
edge of the door.
Proceed to Step 2, page 17.

Follow instructions which apply to your door type as illustrated.
SECTIONAL DOOR OR ONE-PIECE DOOR WITH TRACK
A 38 mm board is convenient for setting an ideal door-to-T-rail
distance.
• Raise the opener onto a stepladder. You will need help at this
point if the ladder is not tall enough.
• Open the door all the way and place a 38 mm board on the top
section beneath the T-rail.
• If the top section or panel hits the trolley when you raise
the door, pull down on the trolley release arm to disconnect
inner and outer sections. Slide the outer trolley toward
the motor unit. The trolley can remain disconnected until
Installation Step 11 is completed.
To prevent damage to garage door, rest garage door opener
rail on 38 mm board placed on top section of door.
ONE-PIECE DOOR WITHOUT TRACK
A 38 mm board is convenient for setting an ideal door-to-T-rail
distance.
• With the door fully open and parallel to the fl oor, measure the
distance from the fl oor to the top of the door.
• Using a stepladder as a support, raise the top of the opener to
this height.
• The top of the door should be level with the top of the motor
unit. Do not position the opener more than 5 cm above this
point.
Two representative installations are shown. Yours may be
different. Hanging brackets should be angled (Figure 1) to provide
rigid support. On fi nished ceilings (Figure 2), attach a sturdy metal
bracket to structural supports before installing the opener. This
bracket and fastening hardware are not provided.
1. Measure the distance from each side of the motor unit to the
structural support.
2. Cut both pieces of the hanging bracket to required lengths.
3. Drill 5 mm pilot holes in the structural supports.
4. Attach one end of each bracket to a support with
5/16"-18x1-7/8" lag screws.
5. Fasten the opener to the hanging brackets with 5/16"-18x7/8"
hex bolts, lock washers and nuts.
6. Check to make sure the T-rail is centered over the door (or in
line with the header bracket if the bracket is not centered above
the door).
7. Remove the 38 mm board. Operate the door manually. If the
door hits the rail, raise the header bracket.
8. Grease the top and underside of the rail surface where the
trolley slides with rail grease.
To avoid possible SERIOUS INJURY from a falling garage
door opener, fasten it SECURELY to structural supports of
the garage. Concrete anchors MUST be used if installing ANY
brackets into masonry.

Electrical Requirements
To avoid installation diffi culties, 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 fi t into a grounding type outlet. If the plug doesn't fi t into
the outlet you have, contact a qualifi ed 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 22 mm diameter
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 ground wire to the green ground screw. The opener must
be grounded.
• Reinstall the cover.
To avoid installation diffi culties, do not run the opener at
this time.
To prevent possible SERIOUS INJURY or DEATH from
electrocution or fi re:
• Be sure power is NOT connected to the opener, and
disconnect power to circuit BEFORE removing cover to
establish permanent wiring connection.
• Garage door installation and wiring MUST be in compliance
with ALL local electrical and building codes.
• NEVER use an extension cord, 2-wire adapter, or change

• Secure with a ring fastener.
2. Adjustment procedures, Figure 6:
On one-piece doors, before connecting the door arm to the
trolley, the travel limits must be adjusted. Limit adjust ment
screws are located on the left side panel as shown on page 28.
Follow adjustment procedures below.
• Open door adjustment: decrease UP travel limit
– Turn the UP limit adjustment screw counter-clockwise
5-1/2 turns.
– Press the Door Control push bar. The trolley will travel to
the fully open position.
– Manually raise the door to the open position (parallel to the
fl oor), and lift the door arm to the trolley. The arm should
touch the trolley just in back of the door arm connector
hole. Refer to the fully open trolley/door arm positions
in the illustration. If the arm does not extend far enough,
adjust the limit further. One full turn equals 5 cm of trolley
travel.
• Closed door adjustment: decrease DOWN travel limit
– Turn the DOWN limit adjustment screw clockwise
5 complete turns.
– Press the Door Control push bar. The trolley will travel to
the fully closed position.
– Manually close the door and lift the door arm to the trolley.
The arm should touch the trolley just ahead of the door
arm connector hole. Refer to the fully closed trolley/door
arm positions in the illustration. If the arm is behind the
connector hole, adjust the limit further. One full turn equals
5 cm of trolley travel.

3. 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 travel 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 fl oor.
NOTE: When setting the up limit on the following page, the door
should not have a “backward” slant when fully open as illustrated
below. A slight backward slant will cause unnecessary bucking
and/or jerking operation as the door is being opened or closed
from the fully open position.

Adjust the Travel Limits
Limit adjustment settings regulate the points at which the door
will stop when moving up or down.
TO SET THE LIMITS:
Ensure the door is in the CLOSED position and the trolley is
engaged (see page 19)
• Turn the power on.
• Open the door by pressing either of your pre-programmed
remote controls or wireless wall button.
• Run the opener through a complete travel cycle.
NOTE: Repeated operation of the opener during adjustment
procedures may cause the opener thermal protection to shut the
opener down. If this occurs please wait 15 minutes and try again.
TIP: For larger doors it may be necessary to disengage the
opener to adjust the opener’s limits without the door attached.
Re-Engage the door and fi ne tune limits once the travel has been
roughly adjusted.
ADJUSTING THE LIMITS:
The door should open a minimum of 1.5 m from the CLOSED
position. If door travels less than 1.5 m adjust the force settings
as outlined on page 29 then return to setting limits.
To increase the open travel limit, turn the UP limit adjustment
screw clockwise (one turn = 50 mm of travel).
To adjust the door closure adjust the DOWN limit adjustment
screw counterclockwise (one turn = 50 mm of travel).The door
should close fi rmly against the fl oor without placing back pressure
on the door arm, pole or door fi ttings.
If the door fails to close fi rmly to the fl oor with the down limit
adjusted fully, it may be necessary to increase the length of the
door arm (see page 26 or 27 depending on your door type). If the
door reverses on contact with the fl oor you will need to reduce the
DOWN limit by turning the screw clockwise.
Without a properly installed safety reversal system, persons
(particularly small children) could be SERIOUSLY INJURED or
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 38 mm
obstacle on the fl oor.
To prevent damage to vehicles, be sure fully open door
provides adequate clearance.
28
Page 29
ADJUSTMENT STEP 2
Adjust the Force
The force, as measured on the closing edge of the door, should
not exceed 400 N (40 kg). If the closing force is measured to
more than 400 N, the Protector System® must be installed.
The force setting button is located on the back panel of the
opener. The force setting regulates the amount of power required
to open and close the door. If the forces are too light, door travel
may be interrupted by nuisance reversals.
SETTING THE FORCE:
1. Locate the Learn button on the back panel of the opener.
2. Push the Learn button twice to enter into Force Setting Mode.
The LED (indicator light) will fl ash.
3. Push the wall control or the programmed remote control that
was shipped with your opener. The door will travel to either the
OPEN or CLOSE position.
4. Push the button again, the door will travel to the opposite
position. Push the button again if the LED is still blinking.
The door must travel through a complete cycle UP and DOWN
in order for the force to be set properly. If the opener reverses
before it reaches the open or close limit, repeat the process. The
LED (indicator light) will stop fl ashing when the force has been
learned.
Without a properly installed safety reversal system, persons
(particularly small children) could be SERIOUSLY INJURED or
KILLED by a closing door or gate.
• Too much force on garage door will interfere with proper
operation of safety reversal system.
• NEVER increase force beyond minimum amount required to
close garage door.
• NEVER use 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 38 mm
obstacle on the fl oor.

ADJUSTMENT STEP 3
Test the Safety Reversal System
The safety reverse system test is important. The garage door
must reverse on contact with a 40 mm obstacle laid fl at on the
fl oor. Failure to properly adjust opener may result in serious
personal injury from a closing garage door. Repeat test once a
month and adjust as needed.
PROCEDURE:
• Place a 40 mm obstacle laid fl at on the fl oor under the garage
door. Operate the door in the down direction. The door must
reverse on the obstruction. If the door stops on the obstruction,
it is not travelling far enough in the down direction. Increase
the down limit by turning down limit adjustment screw
counterclockwise 1/4 turn. Repeat test.
• When the door reverses on the 40 mm obstacle, remove the
obstruction and run the opener through a complete travel cycle.
Door must not reverse in closed position. If it does, adjust
limits and force and repeat safety reverse test.
Install the Protector System® (See Accessories)
Install this accessory for all installations on tilt doors, doors
over 2.5 m and when the closing force as measured on the
bottom of the door is over 400 N (40 kg).
• After opener has been installed and adjusted, the Protector
System® accessory can be installed. Instructions are included
with this accessory.
The Protector System® provides an additional measure of safety
against a small child being trapped under a garage door.
• It uses an invisible beam which, when broken by an obstruction,
causes a closing door to open and prevents an open door from
closing and is strongly recommended for homeowners with
young children.
NOTE: The opener will automatically detect the Protector System®
when it is installed. The opener will not close unless the sensors
are aligned.
Without a properly installed safety reversal system, persons
(particularly small children) could be SERIOUSLY INJURED or
KILLED by a closing door or gate.
• Safety reversal system MUST be tested every month.
• 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 40 mm
obstacle on the fl oor.

1. If open, the door will close. If closed, the door will open.
2. If closing, the door will reverse.
3. If opening, the door will stop (allowing space for entry and exit of pets and for fresh air).
4. If the door has been stopped in a partially open position, it will close.
5. If an obstruction is encountered while closing, the door will reverse.
6. If an obstruction is encountered while opening, the door will reverse and stop.
7. The optional Protector System® uses an invisible beam which, when broken by an obstruction, causes a closing door to open and
prevents an open door from closing. It is STRONGLY RECOMMENDED for homeowners with young children.
Allow a 15 minute cooling period after 5 continuous operations of the opener.
The opener light will turn on:
1. When opener is initially plugged in.
2. When the power is interrupted.
3. When the opener is activated.

Troubleshooting
1. Opener doesn’t operate from either door control or remote
control:
• Does the opener have electric power? Plug lamp into outlet.
If it doesn’t light, check the fuse box or the circuit breaker.
(Some outlets are controlled by a wall switch.)
• Have you disengaged all door locks? Review installation
instruction warnings on page 14.
• Is there a build-up of ice or snow under door? The door may
be frozen to ground. Remove any obstruction.
• The garage door spring may be broken. Have it replaced.
• Repeated operation may have tripped the overload protector
in the motor. Wait 15 minutes and try again.
2. Opener operates from remote control but not from door
control:
• Is door control button lit? If not, remove the bell wire from
the opener terminals. 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.
• Are wiring connections correct? Review page 21.
3. Door operates from door control but not from remote control:
• Check battery. Replace battery if necessary.
• Is the light at the wall control fl ashing? Press button with key
symbol to unlock the opener against remote controls.
• Is the receiver LED fl ashing at the back of the opener when
the remote control is pressed? The opener receiver must
re-learn the remote control code. Follow the instructions on
page 32.
• If you purchased a new remote control then check the
carton of remote control for compatibility or call a LiftMaster
professional dealer.
4. Remote control has a short range:
• Is battery installed? If needed, change the battery.
• Change the location of the remote control on the car.
• A metal garage door, foil-backed insulation or metal siding
will reduce the remote control range.
• Use outside coaxial antenna adaptor to move antenna.
6. Door reverses for no apparent reason and opener light blinks
for 5 seconds after reversing:
®
• Check The Protector System
. If the light is blinking, correct
alignment.
NOTE: Continuously holding down the door control button will
allow the door to close if the Protector System® is not properly
aligned. The remote control will not close the door. The opener
lights will blink.
7. The garage door opens and closes by itself:
• Delete all remote controls and reprogram.
• Make sure remote control push button is not stuck “on”.
• Disconnect all push buttons or key switches attached and wait
one day.
8. Door stops but doesn’t close completely:
• Review limit adjustment section.
Repeat safety reverse test after any adjustment of door arm
length, close force or down limit.
9. Door opens but won’t close:
• Check the Protector System®. If the light is blinking, correct
alignment.
• If opener light does not blink and it is a new installation, check
the down force.
Repeat the safety reverse test after the adjustment is complete.
10. Opener light does not turn on:
• Replace light bulb (40 watts maximum).
11. Opener light does not turn off:
• There may be a defective earth at the ceiling or wall receptacle.
The opener must be grounded.
12. Opener strains or reversed during opening:
• Door may be unbalanced or springs are broken. Close door
and use manual release rope and handle to disconnect trolley.
Open and close door manually. A properly balanced door will
stay in any point of travel while being supported entirely by its
springs.
• If it does not, call for professional garage door service to
correct the problem. Do not change force settings.
5. Door reverses for no apparent reason and opener light
doesn’t blink:
• Is something obstructing the door? Pull manual release
handle. Operate door manually. If it is unbalanced or binding,
call for professional garage door service.
• Clear any ice or snow from garage fl oor area where garage
door closes.
• Review force settings. Open and close the door in learn mode
for 3-5 consecutive cycles to allow the operator to adjust to
inconsistent doors.
• If door reverses in FULLY CLOSED position, relearn travel
limits.
• Repeat safety reverse test after adjustment is complete.
The need for occasional adjustment of the force and limit
settings is normal. Weather conditions in particular can affect
door travel.
13. Opener motor hums briefl y, then won’t work:
• Garage door springs are broken. SEE ABOVE.
• If problem occurs on fi rst operation of opener, the door is
locked. Disable the door lock. If chain was removed and
reinstalled, the opener may be out of phase. Remove chain;
cycle opener to down position. Observe drive sprocket. When
it turns in clockwise direction and stops in down position,
reinstall the chain.
Repeat safety reverse test after adjustment is complete.
14. Opener won’t activate due to power failure:
• Pull manual release rope and handle down and back to
disconnect trolley. Door can be opened and closed manually.
When the power is restored, pull the manual release handle
straight down. The next time the opener is activated, the trolley
will reconnect.
• The Outside Quick Release accessory disconnects the trolley
from outside the garage in case of power failure.
