1 Determine the Header Bracket Location
To prevent possible SERIOUSINJURY or DEATH:
l
Header bracket MUST be RIGIDLY fastened to structural supporton header wall or ceiling,
otherwise garage door might NOT reverse when required. DO NOT install header bracket
over drywall.
l
Concreteanchors MUST be used if mounting header bracket or 2x4 into masonry.
l
NEVER try to loosen, move or adjustgarage door,springs,cables,pulleys,brackets,or their
hardware, ALL of which are under EXTREME tension.
l
ALWAYS call a trained door systemstechnician ifgarage door binds, sticks,or is out of
balance. An unbalanced garage door might NOT reverse when required.
l
DO NOT enable the Timer-to-Close functionalityif operating either one-piece or swinging
garage doors. To be enabled ONLY when operating a sectional door.
NOTE: Ifyou are installing the garage door opener on a one-piece door,visit www.liftmaster.comfor
installation instructions.
Close the door and mark the inside vertical centerline ofthegarage door.
Extend the line onto the header wall above the door.You can fasten the header bracket within 4 feet
(1.22 m) of the left or right of the door center only if a torsion spring or center bearing plate isin the way;
or you can attach it to the ceiling when clearance is minimal. (Itmay be mounted on the wall upside down
if necessary,to gain approximately1/2"(1 cm). Ifyou need to install the header bracket on a 2x4 (on wall
or ceiling),use lag screws(notprovided) to securely fasten the 2x4 to structural supports.
Open your door to the highest point oftravel as shown.Draw an intersecting horizontal line on the
header wall 2"(5 cm) abovethe high point. This heightwill provide travel clearance for the top edge of
the door.
NOTE: Ifthe total number of inches exceeds the height available in your garage,use the maximum
height possible, or refer to page 6 for ceiling installation.

masonry.
Hanging your garage door opener will vary depending on your garage.Two representative installations
are shown.Yours may be different.Hanging bracketsshould be angled (Figure 1) to provide rigid
support.On finished ceilings (Figure 2), attach a sturdymetalbracketto structural supports before
installing the opener. This bracket and fastening hardwareare not provided.
1. Measure the distancefromeach side of the motor unittothe structural support.
2. Cutboth pieces ofthehanging bracket to required lengths.
3. Drill 3/16" pilot holes in the structural supports.
4. Attach one end of eachbrackettoa supportwith 5/16"-18x1-7/8" lag screws(not provided).
5. Fasten the opener to the hanging bracketswith 5/16"-18x7/8"hex bolts,lock washersand

wire to the wall and ceiling withthe staples (not applicable for gang box or pre-wired
installations).Donot pierce the wire withthe staple as this may cause a short or an open
circuit.
2. Strip 7/16 inch (11 mm) of insulation from the end of the wire near the garage door opener.
3. Connectthe wire tothe red and white terminals on the garage dooropener. To insert or
release wires fromthe terminal, push in the tab with screwdriver tip.
3 Attach the warning labels
1. Attach the entrapment warning labelon the wall near the door control with tacksor staples.
2. Attach the manual release/safety reverse test label in a visible location on the inside ofthe
garage door.
Be sure power is NOT connected to the garage door opener BEFORE installing the safety reversing
sensor.
To prevent SERIOUS INJURY or DEATH from closing garage door:
l
Correctlyconnectand align the safetyreversing sensor. This required safetydevice MUST
NOTbe disabled.
l
Install the safetyreversingsensor so beamis NO HIGHER than 6" (15 cm)above garage
floor.
IMPORTANTINFORMATIONABOUTTHESAFETYREVERSINGSENSORS
The safety reversingsensors must be connected and aligned correctly before the garage door
openerwill move in the down direction.
The sending sensor (with an amber LED) transmitsan invisible light beam to the receiving sensor (with a
green LED). Ifan obstruction breaks the light beamwhile the door is closing, the door will stop and
reverse to the full open position, and the garage door opener lights will flash10 times.
NOTE: For energyefficiency the garage door opener will enter sleep mode when the door is fully
closed. The sleep mode shuts the garage door opener down until activated.The sleep mode is
sequenced with the garage door opener light bulb; as the lightbulb turns offthe sensor LEDs will turn off
and whenever the garage door opener lights turn on the sensor LEDs will light. The garage door opener
will not go into the sleep mode until the garage door opener has completed 5 cycles upon power up.
Wheninstalling the safety reversingsensors check the following:
l
Sensors are installed insidethe garage,one on either side ofthedoor.
l
Sensors are facing each other with the lenses aligned and the receiving sensor lens doesnot
receive direct sunlight.
l
Sensors are no more than 6 inches(15 cm) abovethe floor and the lightbeam is
unobstructed.

To prevent possible SERIOUSINJURY or DEATHfromelectrocution or fire:
l
Be sure power is NOT connected to the opener, and disconnect power to circuitBEFORE
removing cover to establishpermanent wiring connection.
l
Garage door installation and wiring MUSTbe in compliance with ALL local electrical and
building codes.
l
NEVER use an extension cord, 2-wire adapter, or change plug in ANYwayto make it fit
outlet.Be sure the opener is grounded.
To avoidinstallation difficulties, do not activate the garage door 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 onlyfitintoa grounding type outlet.Ifthe plug doesn’t fitinto your outlet,
contacta qualified electrician to install the proper outlet.
THERE ARE TWO OPTIONS FOR CONNECTINGPOWER:
OPTION A
TYPICAL WIRING
1. Plug in the garage door opener into a grounded outlet.
2. DO NOT run garage door opener at this time.
OPTION B
PERMANENT WIRING
If permanent wiring is required by your localcode,refer to the following procedure.Tomake a
permanent connection throughthe 7/8 inch hole in the top of the motor unit(according to local
code):
1. Removethe motor unitcover screws and set the cover aside.
2. Removethe attached 3-prong cord.
3. Connectthe black (line) wire to the screwon the brass terminal; the white (neutral) wire to the

can be aligned by loosening the wing nuts,aligning the sensors, and tightening the wing nuts.
1. Checktomake sure the LEDs in both sensors are glowing steadily.TheLEDs in both sensors
will glow steadily if they are aligned and wired correctly.
IFTHE AMBER LED ON THE SENDING SENSOR IS NOT GLOWING:
1. Make sure there is power to the garage door opener.
2. Make sure the sensor wire isnotshorted/broken.

To prevent damage to vehicles,be sure fully open door provides adequate clearance.
Your garage door opener is designed with electronic controls to make setup and adjustments easy.The
adjustmentsallowyou to program where the door will stop in the open (UP) and close(DOWN)position.
The electronic controls sense the amount of force required toopen and close the door.The force is
adjusted automaticallywhen you program the travel.
NOTE: Ifanything interferes with the door’s upward travel it will stop. If anything interferes with the door’s
downward travel, it will reverse.
PROGRAMMING BUTTONS
The programmingbuttonsare located on the leftside panel of the garage door opener and are used to
program the travel.While programming,the UP and DOWN buttonscan be used to move the door as
needed.
