Planning

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.

• Installation Step 10 – Depending upon garage construction, extension brackets or wood blocks may be needed to install sensors.

• Installation Step 10 – Alternate ﬂ oor mounting of the safety reversing sensor will require hardware not provided.

• Do you have an access door in addition to the garage door? If not, Model 7702CB Emergency Key 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 1/4" (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 11).

• 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 4 feet (1.22 m) to the left or right of the door center. See Installation Steps 1 and 11.

• If your door is more than 7 feet (2.13 m) high, see rail extension kits listed on Accessories page.

SECTIONAL DOOR INSTALLATION

Horizontal and vertical reinforcement is needed for lightweight garage doors (ﬁ berglass, steel, aluminum, door with glass panels, etc.). See page 23 for details.

ASSEMBLY STEP 1

Assemble the Rail & Install the Trolley

To avoid installation difﬁ culties, do not run the garage door opener until instructed to do so.

The front rail has a cut out “window” at the door end (see illustration). The hole above this window is larger on the top of the rail than on the bottom. A smaller hole 3-1/2" (8.9 cm) away is close to the rail edge. Rotate the back rail so it has a similar hole close to the opposite edge, about 4-3/4" (12 cm) from the far end.

1. Remove the straight door arm and hanging bracket packaged inside the front rail and set aside for Installation Step 5 and 12. NOTE: To prevent INJURY

while unpacking the rail carefully remove the straight door arm stored within the rail section.

2. Align the rail sections on a ﬂ at surface as shown and slide the tapered ends into the larger ones. Tabs along the side will lock into place.

3. Place the motor unit on packing material to protect the cover, and rest the back end of the rail on top. For convenience, put a support under the front end of the rail.

To prevent INJURY from pinching, keep hands and ﬁ ngers away from the joints while assembling the rail.

4. As a temporary trolley stop, insert a screwdriver into the hole 10" (25 cm) away from the front of the rail, as shown.

5. Check to be sure there are 4 plastic wear pads inside the inner trolley. If they became loose during shipping, check all packing material. Snap them back into position as shown.

6. Slide the trolley assembly along the rail from the back end to the screwdriver.

INSTALLATION STEP 1

Determine the Header Bracket Location

To prevent possible SERIOUS INJURY or DEATH:

• Header bracket MUST be RIGIDLY fastened to structural support on header wall or ceiling, otherwise garage door might NOT reverse when required. DO NOT install header bracket over drywall.

• Concrete anchors MUST be used if mounting header bracket or 2x4 into masonry.

• NEVER try to loosen, move or adjust garage door, springs, cables, pulleys, brackets, or their hardware, ALL of which are under EXTREME tension.

• ALWAYS call a trained door systems technician if garage door binds, sticks, or is out of balance. An unbalanced garage door might NOT reverse when required.

Installation procedures vary according to garage door types. Follow the instructions which apply to your door.

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 4 feet

(1.22 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 13) when clearance is minimal. (It may be mounted on the wall upside down if necessary, to gain approximately 1/2" (1 cm).

If you need to install the header bracket on a 2x4

(on wall or ceiling), use lag screws (not provided) to securely fasten the 2x4 to structural supports as shown here and on page 13.

3. Open your door to the highest point of travel as shown. Draw an inter secting horizontal line on the header wall above the high point:

• 2" (5 cm) above the high point for sectional door

and one-piece door with track.

• 8" (20 cm) above the high point for one-piece door

without track.

This height will provide travel clearance for the top

edge of the door.

NOTE: If the total number of inches exceeds the height

available in your garage, use the maximum height possible, or refer to page 13 for ceiling installation.

On ﬁ nished ceilings (Figure 2 and Figure 3), 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 3/16" 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 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 2x4. Operate the door manually. If the door hits the rail, raise the header bracket.

NOTE: DO NOT connect power to opener at this time.

INSTALLATION STEP 6

Install the Door Control

Locate door control within sight of door at a minimum height of 5 feet (1.5 m) where small children cannot reach, and away from all moving parts of door and door hardware.

1. Strip 1/4" (6 mm) of insulation from one end of the bell wire. Connect it to the two screw terminals on the back of the door control by color: white wire to 2 and white/red wire to 1.

2. Fasten the Lighted Door Control Button securely with 6ABx1-1/2" screws. If installing into drywall, drill 5/32" holes and use the anchors provided.

3. 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, creating a short or open circuit.

4. Receiver terminal screws and the antenna are located on the back panel of the motor unit. Position the antenna wire as shown.

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

6. Use tacks or staples to permanently attach the entrapment warning label to the wall near the door control, and the manual release/safety reverse test in a prominent location on the inside of the garage door.

NOTE: DO NOT connect the power and operate the opener at this time. The trolley will travel to the full open position, but will not return to the close position until the sensor beam is connected and properly aligned.

To prevent possible SERIOUS INJURY or DEATH from electrocution:

• Be sure power is NOT connected BEFORE installing door control.

• Connect ONLY to 24 VOLT low voltage wires.

To prevent possible SERIOUS INJURY or DEATH from a closing garage door:

• Install door control within sight of garage door, out of reach of children at a minimum height of 5 feet (1.5 m), and away from ALL moving parts of door.

• NEVER permit children to operate or play with door control push buttons or remote control transmitters.

• Activate door ONLY when it can be seen clearly, is properly adjusted and there are no obstructions to door travel.

• ALWAYS keep garage door in sight until completely closed. NEVER permit anyone to cross path of closing garage door.

Attach the Emergency Release Rope and Handle

• 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 at least 1" (2.5 cm) from the end of the rope to prevent slipping.

• 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 (1.83 m) above the ﬂ oor. Ensure that the rope and handle clear the tops of all vehicles to avoid entanglement. Secure with an overhand knot.

NOTE: If it is necessary to cut the rope, heat seal the cut end with a match or lighter to prevent unraveling.

To prevent possible SERIOUS INJURY or DEATH from a falling garage door:

• If possible, use emergency release handle to disengage trolley ONLY when garage door is CLOSED. Weak or broken springs or unbalanced door could result in an open door falling rapidly and/or unexpectedly.

• NEVER use emergency release handle unless garage doorway is clear of persons and obstructions.

• NEVER use handle to pull door open or closed. If rope knot becomes untied, you could fall.

INSTALLATION STEP 9

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.

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 plug in any way to make it ﬁ t outlet. Be sure the opener is grounded.

WRONGRIGHT

If permanent wiring is required by your local code, refer to the following procedure.

To make a permanent connection through the 7/8" 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.

INSTALLATION STEP 10

Install The Protector System

The safety reversing sensor must be connected and aligned correctly before the garage door opener will move in the down direction.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION ABOUT THE SAFETY REVERSING SENSOR

When properly connected and aligned, the sensor will detect an obstacle in the path of its electronic beam. The sending eye (with an amber indicator light) transmits an invisible light beam to the receiving eye (with a green indicator light). If an obstruction breaks the light beam while the door is closing, the door will stop and reverse to full open position, and the opener lights will ﬂ ash 10 times.

The units must be installed inside the garage so that the sending and receiving eyes face each other across the door, no more than 6" (15 cm) above the ﬂ oor. Either can be installed on the left or right of the door as long as the sun never shines directly into the receiving eye lens.

The mounting brackets are designed to clip onto the track of sectional garage doors without additional hardware.

Be sure power is NOT connected to the garage door opener BEFORE installing the safety reversing sensor.

To prevent SERIOUS INJURY or DEATH from a closing garage door:

• Correctly connect and align the safety reversing sensor. This required safety device MUST NOT be disabled.

• Install the safety reversing sensor so beam is NO HIGHER than 6" (15 cm) above garage ﬂ oor.

If it is necessary to mount the units on the wall, the brackets must be securely fastened to a solid surface such as the wall framing. Extension brackets (see Accessories) are available if needed. If installing in masonry construction, add a piece of wood at each location to avoid drilling extra holes in masonry if repositioning is necessary.

The invisible light beam path must be unobstructed. No part of the garage door (or door tracks, springs, hinges, rollers or other hardware) may interrupt the beam while the door is closing.

Page 20

INSTALLING THE BRACKETS

Be sure power to the opener is disconnected. Install

and align the brackets so the sensors will face each other across the garage door, with the beam no higher than 6" (15 cm) above the ﬂ oor. They may be installed in one of three ways, as follows.

Garage door track installation (preferred):

• Slip the curved arms over the rounded edge of each door track, with the curved arms facing the door. Snap into place against the side of the track. It should lie ﬂ ush, with the lip hugging the back edge of the track, as shown in Figure 1.

If your door track will not support the bracket securely, wall installation is recommended.

Wall installation (Figures 2 & 3):

• Place the bracket against the wall with curved arms facing the door. Be sure there is enough clearance for the sensor beam to be unobstructed.

• If additional depth is needed, an extension bracket (see Accessories) or wood blocks can be used.

• Use bracket mounting holes as a template to locate and drill (2) 3/16" diameter pilot holes on the wall at each side of the door, no higher than 6" (15 cm) above the ﬂ oor.

• Attach brackets to wall with lag screws (not provided).

• If using extension brackets or wood blocks, adjust right and left assemblies to the same distance out from the mounting surface. Make sure all door hardware obstructions are cleared.

Floor installation (Figure 4):

• Use wood blocks or extension brackets (see Accessories) to elevate sensor brackets so the lenses will be no higher than 6" (15 cm) above the ﬂ oor.

• Carefully measure and place right and left assemblies at the same distance out from the wall. Be sure all door hardware obstructions are cleared.

• Fasten to the ﬂ oor with concrete anchors as shown.

MOUNTING AND WIRING THE SAFETY REVERSING SENSORS

Mounting:

• Slide a 1/4"-20x1/2" carriage bolt head into the slot on each sensor. Use wing nuts to fasten sensors to brackets, with lenses pointing toward each other across the door. Be sure the lens is not obstructed by a bracket extension (Figure 5).

• Finger tighten the wing nuts.

Option A - Installation Without Pre-Wiring:

• Run the bell wire from both sensors to the garage door opener. Attach the wire to the wall and ceiling with the staples (Figure 6).

Option B - Pre-Wired Installation:

If your garage already has wires installed for the safety reversing sensors, follow the instructions below:

• Cut the end of the safety reversing sensor wire, making sure there is enough wire to reach the pre-installed wires from the wall (Figure 7).

• Separate the safety reversing sensor wires and strip 7/16" (11 mm) of insulation from each end. Choose two of the pre-installed wires and strip 7/16" (11 mm) of insulation from each end. Make sure that you choose the same color pre-installed wires for each sensor (Figure 8).

• Connect the pre-installed wires to the sensor wires with wire nuts making sure the colors correspond for each sensor (Figure 9).

ALIGNING THE SAFETY REVERSING SENSORS

• Plug in the opener. The indicator lights in both the

sending and receiving eyes will glow steadily if wiring connections and alignment are correct.

The sending eye amber indicator light will glow regardless of alignment or obstruction. If the green indicator light in the receiving eye is off, dim, or ﬂ ickering (and the invisible light beam path is not obstructed), alignment is required.

• Loosen the sending eye wing nut and readjust, aiming

directly at the receiving eye. Lock in place.

• Loosen the receiving eye wing nut and adjust sensor

until it receives the sender’s beam. When the green indicator light glows steadily, tighten the wing nut.

1. Strip wire 7/16" (11 mm)

2. Twist like colored wires together

3. Connect wire to the opener terminal

TROUBLESHOOTING THE SAFETY REVERSING SENSORS

1. If the sending eye indicator light does not glow steadily after installation, check for:

• Electric power to the opener.

• A short in the white or white/black wires. These can occur at staples, or at opener connections.

• Incorrect wiring between sensors and opener.

• A broken wire.

2. If the sending eye indicator light glows steadily but the receiving eye indicator light doesn’t:

• Check alignment.

• Check for an open wire to the receiving eye.

3. If the receiving eye indicator light is dim, realign either sensor.

NOTE: When the invisible beam path is obstructed or misaligned while the door is closing, the door will reverse. If the door is already open, it will not close. The opener lights will blink 10 times. See page 19.

Page 23

INSTALLATION STEP 11

Fasten the Door Bracket

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

A horizontal reinforcement brace should be long enough to be secured to two or three vertical supports. A vertical reinforcement brace should cover the height of the top panel.

Figure 1 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.

NOTE: Many door reinforcement kits provide for direct attachment of the clevis pin and door arm. In this case you will not need the door bracket; proceed to Step 12.

SECTIONAL DOORS

1. Center the door bracket on the previously marked vertical centerline used for the header bracket installation. Note correct UP placement, as stamped inside the bracket.

2. Position the top edge of the bracket 2"-4" (5-10 cm) below the top edge of the door, OR directly below any structural support across the top of the door.

3. Mark, drill holes and install as follows, depending on your door’s construction:

Metal or light weight doors using a vertical angle iron brace between the door panel support and the door bracket:

• Drill 3/16" fastening holes. Secure the door bracket using the two 1/4"-14x5/8" self-threading screws (Figure 2A).

• Alternately, use two 5/16" bolts, lock washers and nuts (not provided) (Figure 2B).

Metal, insulated or light weight factory reinforced doors:

• Drill 3/16" fastening holes. Secure the door bracket using the self-threading screws (Figure 3).

Wood Doors:

• Use top and bottom or side to side door bracket holes. Drill 5/16" holes through the door and secure bracket with 5/16"x2" carriage bolts, lock washers and nuts (not provided) (Figure 4).

NOTE: The 1/4"-14x5/8" self-threading screws are not intended for use on wood doors.

clockwise 4 turns.

- Press the Door Control push button. 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 2" (5 cm) of trolley travel.

• Closed door adjustment: decrease DOWN travel limit

- Turn the DOWN limit adjustment screw clockwise

4 complete turns.

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 2" (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.

ADJUSTMENT STEP 1

Adjust the UP and DOWN Travel Limits

Limit adjustment settings regulate the points at which the door will stop when moving up or down.

To operate the opener, press the Door Control push bar. 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 (Adjustment Step 3, page 29).

Adjustment procedures are outlined below. Read the procedures carefully before proceeding to Adjustment Step 2. Use a screwdriver to make limit adjustments.

Run the opener through a complete travel cycle after each adjustment.

NOTE: Repeated operation of the opener during adjustment procedures may cause the motor to overheat and shut off. Simply wait 15 minutes and try again. If anything interferes with the door’s upward travel, it will stop. If anything interferes with the door’s downward travel (including binding or unbalanced doors), it will reverse.

HOW AND WHEN TO ADJUST THE LIMITS

• If the door does not open completely but opens at least ﬁ ve feet (1.5 m):

Increase up travel. Turn the UP limit adjustment screw

clockwise. One turn equals 2" (5 cm) of travel.

NOTE: To prevent the trolley from hitting the cover

protection bolt, keep a minimum distance of 2-4" (5 cm - 10 cm) between the trolley and the bolt.

• If door does not open at least 5 feet (1.5 m):

Adjust the UP (open) force as explained in Adjustment

Step 2.

• If the door does not close completely:

Increase down travel. Turn the down limit adjustment

screw counterclockwise. One turn equals 2" (5 cm) of travel.

If door still won't close completely and the trolley

bumps into the pulley bracket (page 4), try lengthening the door arm (page 25) and decreasing the down limit.

• If the opener reverses in fully closed position:

Decrease down travel. Turn the down limit adjustment

screw clockwise. One turn equals 2" (5 cm) of travel.

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 1-1/2" high (3.8 cm) object (or 2x4 laid ﬂ at) on ﬂ oor.

To prevent damage to vehicles, be sure fully open door provides adequate clearance.

Sensors are either not installed, misaligned, or obstructed. See Troubleshooting, page 22.

Test the door for binding: Pull the emergency release

handle. Manually open and close the door. If the door is binding or unbalanced, call for a trained door systems technician. If the door is balanced and not binding, adjust the DOWN (close) force. See Adjustment Step 2.

Page 28

ADJUSTMENT STEP 2

Adjust the Force

Force adjustment controls are located on the back panel of the motor unit. Force adjustment settings regulate the amount of power required to open and close the door.

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.

The maximum force adjustment range is about 3/4 of a complete turn. Do not force controls beyond that point.

Turn force adjustment controls with a screwdriver.

NOTE: If anything interferes with the door’s upward travel, it will stop. If anything interferes with the door’s downward travel (including binding or unbalanced doors), it will reverse.

HOW AND WHEN TO ADJUST THE FORCES

1. Test the DOWN (close) force

• 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 1-1/2" (3.8 cm) obstruction. See Adjustment Step 3, page 29. If the door is hard to hold or doesn't

reverse, DECREASE the DOWN (close) force by turning the control counterclockwise. Make small 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 ﬂ ashing, INCREASE

DOWN (close) force by turning the control clockwise. Make small 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.

2. Test the UP (open) force

• Grasp the door bottom when the door is about halfway through UP (open) travel. The door should stop. If the door is hard to hold or doesn't stop, DECREASE UP (open) force by turning the control counterclockwise. Make small adjustments until the door stops easily and opens fully. After each adjustment, run the opener through a complete travel cycle.

• If the door doesn’t open at least 5 feet (1.5 m),

INCREASE UP (open) force by turning the control clockwise. Make small adjustments until door opens completely. Readjust the UP limit if necessary. After each adjustment, run the opener through a complete travel cycle.

Without a properly installed safety reversal system, persons (particularly small children) could be SERIOUSLY INJURED or KILLED by a closing garage door.

• 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 1-1/2" high (3.8 cm) object (or 2x4 laid ﬂ at) on ﬂ oor.

ADJUSTMENT STEP 3

Test the Safety Reversal System

TEST

• With the door fully open, place a 1-1/2" (3.8 cm) board (or a 2x4 laid ﬂ at) on the ﬂ oor, centered under the garage door.

• Operate the door in the down direction. The door must reverse on striking the obstruction.

ADJUST

• If the door stops on the obstruction, it is not traveling far enough in the down direction. Reconduct

Adjustment Steps 1 and 2.

NOTE: On a sectional door, make sure limit

adjustments do not force the door arm beyond a straight up and down position. See the illustration on page 25.

•

Repeat the test.

• When the door reverses on the 1-1/2" (3.8 cm) board, remove the obstruction and run the opener through 3 or 4 complete travel cycles to test adjustment.

•

If the unit continues to fail the Safety Reverse Test, call for a trained door systems technician.

IMPORTANT SAFETY CHECK:

Test the Safety Reverse System after:

• Each adjustment of door arm length, limits, or force controls.

• Any repair to or adjustment of the garage door (including springs and hardware).

• Any repair to or buckling of the garage ﬂ oor.

• Any repair to or adjustment of the opener.

Without a properly installed safety reversal system, persons (particularly small children) could be SERIOUSLY INJURED or KILLED by a closing garage door.

• 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 1-1/2" high (3.8 cm) object (or 2x4 laid ﬂ at) on the ﬂ oor.

1-1/2" (3.8 cm) board

(or a 2x4 laid ﬂ at)

ADJUSTMENT STEP 4

Test The Protector System

• Press the remote control push button to open the door.

• Place the opener carton in the path of the door.

• Press the remote control push button to close the door. The door will not move more than an inch (2.5 cm), and the opener lights will ﬂ ash.

The garage door opener will not close from a remote if the indicator light in either sensor is off (alerting you to the fact that the sensor is misaligned or obstructed).

If the opener closes the door when the safety reversing sensor is obstructed (and the sensors are no more than 6" (15 cm) above the ﬂ oor), call for a trained door systems technician.

Without a properly installed safety reversing sensor, persons (particularly small children) could be SERIOUSLY INJURED or KILLED by a closing garage door.
