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 120V, 60 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 find 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 finished 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 floor 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 floor. Any
gap between the floor 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, fiberglass 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.

Assemble the Rail & Install the Trolley
To avoid installation difficulties, do not run the garage
door opener until instructed to do so.
To prevent INJURY from pinching, keep hands and fingers
away from the joints while assembling the rail.
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 flat 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.
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.

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.
