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

Assembly Step 1

Assemble the T-rail & Attach the Belt Pulley Bracket

• Align the 4 T-rail sections on a flat surface exactly as shown. Center sections are interchangeable. Front and back sections are also interchangeable for ease of assembly.

• Insert the carriage bolts so the square bolt necks seat in the square holes in the T-rail sections and pass through the round holes in the rail braces. Assemble lock nuts, ensure alignment and tighten.

If T-rail is not assembled exactly as shown, trolley will not travel smoothly along length of rail or it will hit against nuts.

Right

Wrong

Make sure bolt necks are seated in the square holes and rails are aligned before you tighten lock nuts. (See right and wrong views). Improper assembly can cause jerky trolley operation, noise and/or nuisance door reversals.

• Position the belt pulley bracket on the front end of the T-rail as shown. Fasten securely with the hardware shown.

Installation Step 6

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.

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 transmitter(s).

A moving garage door could injure someone under it.

Activate the opener only when the door is properly adjusted, you can see it clearly, and there are no obstructions to door travel.

• Strip 1/4" of insulation from one end of the bell wire; connect the wire to the two screw terminals on the back of the door control by color: white to 2 and white/red to 1.

• 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 parts of the door and door hardware.

Fasten the Multi-Function Door Control securely with 6ABx1" screws. If installing into drywall, drill 5/32" holes and use the anchors provided.

• Run the bell wire up the wall and across the ceiling to the opener. Use insulated staples to secure the wire in several places. Be careful not to pierce the wire with a staple, thereby resulting in a short.

• Receiver terminal screws and the antenna are located on the right panel of the opener. Position the antenna wire as shown.

• Then connect the bell wire to the opener terminal screws: white to 2 and white/red to 1.

• Remember to affix the User Safety Instruction

label to the wall near the door control, and the Maintenance Instruction label in a prominent location on the inside of the garage door.

If the label adhesive will not adhere to your garage wall surface (or becomes lose with time) use tacks to secure the label alongside the door control.

Information you'll need before you begin the installation of the safety reversing sensor.

The safety reversing sensor

must

be connected and aligned correctly before the garage door opener will move in the down direction. This is a required safety device and cannot be disabled.

Installation procedures are the same for sectional and one-piece doors.

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.

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.

WARNING

Without a properly working safety reversing sensor, persons (particularly children) could be injured or killed by a closing garage door.

Read and follow all instructions. 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 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.

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.

Follow instructions which apply to your door type as illustrated below or on page 25.

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.

To prevent damage to steel, aluminum, fiberglass or glass panel doors, always reinforce the inside of the door both vertically and horizontally with an angle iron.

SECTIONAL Door Installation Procedure

Figure 1

• Center the door bracket on the previously marked vertical guideline used for the header bracket installation.

• Position the bracket on the face of the door within the following limits:

A) The top edge of the bracket 2"-4" below the top

edge of the door.

B) The top edge of the bracket directly below any

structural support across the top of the door.

• Mark and drill 5/16" left and right fastening holes. Secure the bracket as shown in Figure 1 if there is vertical reinforcement.

If your installation doesn't require vertical reinforcement but does need top and bottom fastening holes for the door bracket, position the door plate over the door bracket as shown in Figure 2. Fasten securely with hardware shown in Figure 1.

Having a Problem?

Situation Probable Cause & Solution

The opener doesn't operate from either the door control or the remote control:

Opener operates from remote control, but not from door control:

The door operates from the door control, but not from the remote control:

1. Does the opener have electric power? Plug a lamp into the outlet. If it doesn't light, check the fuse box or the circuit breaker. (Some outlets are controlled by a wall switch.)

2. Have you disabled all door locks? Review installation instruction warnings 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.

1. Is the door control push bar 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.

1. If your model has the Lock feature, turn it

2. Is the wall push button flashing? Your opener needs to re-learn a remote control code. Refer to instructions on the opener panel.

3. Does the battery test light glow when the remote control push button is pressed? If not, replace the battery.

4. Program the receiver to match the remote control code.

5. Repeat the receiver programming procedure with all remote controls.

The remote control has short range:

Opener noise is disturbing in living quarters of home:

The garage door opens and closes by itself:

The door doesn't open completely:

1. Check the battery test light. If the light is dim, replace the battery.

2. Change the location of the remote control in your car.

3. Check to be sure the antenna on the side or back panel of the opener extends fully downward.

4. Some installations may have shorter range due to a metal door, foil backed

insulation, or metal garage siding.

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.

1. Be sure that all remote control push buttons and battery indicator lights 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.

1. If the door has been working properly but now doesn't open all the way, increase the

up force.

2. Is something obstructing the door? Remove the obstruction or repair the door.

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.

See page 29.

Repeat the safety reverse test after the adjustment is complete.

The door stops but doesn't close completely:

Review the travel limits adjustment procedures on page 28.

Repeat the safety reverse test after any adjustment of door arm length, close force or down limit.
