If you have a canopy garage door, a door arm conversion kit is required. Follow the installation instructions included with the replacement door arm. Exercise care in removing and assembling arm conversion kit. Keep fingers away from the sliding parts.

NOTE: Horizontal and vertical reinforcement is needed for lightweight garage doors.

Sectional and One-Piece Door Installation Procedure:

Door bracket (1) has left and right side fastening holes. If your installation requires top and bottom fastening holes use both the door bracket and door bracket plate (2) as shown.

1. Center door bracket (with or without door bracket plate, as required) at the top inside face of door as shown. Mark holes.

2. A. Wooden doors Drill 8mm holes (5/16") and fasten the door bracket with nut, lock washer, and carriage bolt (3).

B. Sheet metal doors Fasten with wood screws (4).

C. One-piece door optional Fasten with wood screws (4).

Assemble Door Arm

A. ONE-PIECE DOOR INSTALLATION:

Fasten the straight (1) and curved (2) door arm sections together to the longest possible length (with a 2 or 3 hole overlap) using hardware (3,4 and 5). With the door closed connect the straight door arm section (1) to the door bracket with clevis pin (6). Secure with ring fastener (7). Disconnect the inner and outer trolley. Slide the outer trolley back toward the opener and join the curved arm (2) to the connector hole in the trolley (8) with clevis pin (6). It may be necessary to lift the door slightly to make the connection. Secure with ring fastener (7).

NOTE: When setting the up limit, the door should not have a “backward” slant when fully open. A slight backward slant (9) will cause unnecessary bucking and/or jerking operation as the door is bing opened or closed from the fully open position.

B. SECTIONAL DOOR INSTALLATION:

Connect according to Figure B, then proceed to Step 21.

Attach Rail to Header Bracket

Position opener on garage floor below the header bracket. Use packing material to protect the cover. Raise rail until holes in the header sleeve and holes in the header bracket align. Join with clevis pin (1). Insert ring fastener (2) to secure.

NOTE: To enable the rail to clear sectional door springs, it may be necessary to lift opener onto a temporary support. The opener must either be secured to a support or held firmly in place by another person.

Position the Opener

NOTE: A 25mm (1") board (1) is convenient for setting an ideal door-to-rail distance (unless headroom is not sufficient).

Raise the opener onto a stepladder. Open garage door. Place a 25mm (1") board (1) laid flat on the top section of door near the centerline as shown. Rest the rail on the board.

If the raised door hits the trolley, pull down on the trolley release arm to disconnect the inner and outer trolley sections. The trolley can remain disconnected until connecting door arm to trolley is completed.

Hang the Opener

The opener must be securely fastened to a structural support of the garage.

Three representative installations are shown. Yours may be different. Hanging brackets (1) should be angled (Figure A) to provide rigid support. On finished ceilings, (Figure B) attach a sturdy metal bracket (not supplied) (4) to a structural support before installing the opener. For concrete ceiling mount, (Figure C), use concrete anchors (5) provided.

On each side of opener measure the distance from the opener to the structural support (or ceiling).

Cut both pieces of the hanging bracket to required lengths. Flatten one end of each bracket and bend or twist to fit the fastening angles. Do not bend at the bracket holes. Drill 4,5mm (3/16") pilot holes in the structural supports (or ceiling). Attach brackets to supports with wood screws (2).

Lift opener and fasten to hanging brackets with screw, lock washer and nut (3). Check to make sure rail is centered over the door. REMOVE 25mm (1") board. Operate door manually. If door hits the rail, raise header bracket. Use rail grease and lubricate bottom surface of rail (6).

Attach Emergency Release Rope & Handle

Thread one end of rope (1) through hole in top of red handle so "NOTICE" reads right side up as shown (3). Secure with an overhand knot (2). Knot should be at least 25mm (1") from end of the rope to prevent slipping.

Thread other end of rope through hole in release arm of the outer trolley (4). Adjust rope length so that handle is 1,8m (6 feet) above the floor. Secure with an overhand knot.

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

Install the Protector System™

In order to operate this unit, the Protector System™ MUST be installed.

The Protector System™ provides an additional measure of safety against a small child being caught 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.

Installing the Brackets

Be sure power to the opener is disconnected.

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

A. Garage door track installation (preferred):

• Slip curved arms over rounded edge of each door track, with curved arms facing door (1). Snap into place against side of track (2). It should lie flush, with lip hugging back edge of track.

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

B. Floor installation (Figure 4):

• Use wood blocks or extension brackets (See Accessories) to elevate sensor brackets so lenses will be no higher than 6" (15 cm) above floor (1).

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

• Fasten to floor with concrete anchors as shown (2).

C. Wall installation (Figure 2 & 3):

• Place bracket against wall with curved arms facing door (1). Be sure there is enough clearance for sensor beam to be unobstructed.

• If additional depth is needed, an extension bracket (See Accessories) or wood blocks can be used (2).

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

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

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

D. Mounting and Wiring the Safety Sensors

Slide a 1/4"-20x1/2" carriage bolt head into slot on each sensor (1). Use wing nuts to fasten sensors to brackets, with lenses pointing toward each other across door (2). Be sure lens is not obstructed by a bracket extension (3).

• Finger tighten wing nuts.

• Run wires from both sensors to opener. Use insulated staples to secure wire to wall and ceiling.

• Strip 7/16" (11 mm) of insulation from each set of wires (4). Separate white and white/black wires sufficiently to connect to opener quick-connect terminals. Twist like colored wires together (5). Insert wires into quick-connect holes: white to white (3) and white/black to grey (4).

114A2804E-GB

Aligning the Safety Sensors

Plug in opener. Indicator lights in both sending and receiving eyes will glow steadily if wiring connections and alignment are correct.

Sending eye orange indicator light will glow regardless of alignment or obstruction. If green indicator light in receiving eye is off, dim, or flickering (and invisible light beam path is not obstructed), alignment is required.

• Loosen sending eye wing nut and readjust, aiming directly at receiving eye. Lock in place.

• Loosen receiving eye wing nut and adjust sensor until it receives sender’s beam. When green indicator light glows steadily, tighten wing nut.

Troubleshooting the Safety 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.

Program your Opener & Remote

Activate the opener only when door is in full view, free of obstruction and properly adjusted. No one should enter or leave garage while door is in motion. Do not allow children to operate push button(s) or remote(s). Do not allow children to play near the door.

Your garage door opener receiver and remote control transmitter are set to a matching code. If you purchase additional remote controls, the garage door opener must be programmed to accept the new remote code.

Program the Receiver to Match Additional Remote Control Codes: Using the orange “LEARN” Button

1. Press and release the orange “learn” button on the opener. The learn indicator light will glow steadily for 30 seconds (1).

2. Within 30 seconds, press and hold the button on the hand-held remote that you wish to operate your garage door (2).

3. Release the button when the opener light blinks. It has learned the code. If the light bulb is not installed, two clicks will be heard (3).

Using the Multi-Function Door Control:

Test the Safety Reverse System

The safety reverse system test is important. Garage door must reverse on contact with a 40mm obstacle laid flat on the floor. 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 40mm obstacle (1) laid flat on the floor 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, remove obstruction and repeat Setting the Limits step 25. Repeat test.

When the door reverses on the 40mm obstacle, remove the obstruction and run the opener through a complete travel cycle. Door

must not reverse in closed position. If it does, repeat Setting the Limits and Force steps 25 and 26 and repeat safety reverse test.

Place 20kg at the center of the door and ensure that the door will not move up more than 500mm.

Setting the Limits

Travel limits regulate the points at which the door will stop when moving up or down. Follow the steps below to set the limits.

To program the travel limits:

1. Open the light lens. Press and hold the black button (1) until the

yellow indicator light (3) starts flashing slowly and then release.

2. Push and hold the black button (1) until the door reaches the

desired open position. Adjust the position of the door by using the black (1) and orange (2) buttons. Black moves the door UP, orange moves the door DOWN.

3. Push the programmed remote control (4) or push bar on the door

control that was shipped with your opener. This sets the full UP (open) position. The door will travel to the floor and reverse back to the UP (open) position. The opener has learned its travel limits.

Check to be sure the door is high enough for your vehicle. Adjust if necessary.

4. The indicator light (3) will stop flashing when the limits have been

learned.

If the door reverses before it reaches the floor repeat steps 1-3 immediately. If this does not set the limits, proceed to #15 of the Having a Problem? section and follow the instructions for setting the limits manually.

The force MUST be learned in order to properly complete the setting of the limits.

NOTE: The worklight blinks 10 times whenever the Limits Setting routine fails. If you get this error, proceed to #15 of the Having a Problem? section and follow the instructions for setting the limits manually.

ADJUSTMENT SECTION

Quick Release

As you proceed with the installation of Model 1702EML Outside Quick Release, refer to door types shown in Figures A, B, C and D:

Figure A: One-piece door with horizontal track only Figure B: One-piece door without track Figure C: Sectional Door with curved track Figure D: Canopy and one-piece door with horizontal and

vertical track with “The Chamberlain Arm” installed

Locate the Quick Release on the outside of your garage door (2).

For doors A, B and C, center the Quick Release (1) below the opener door bracket (3). For door style D, locate Quick Release (1) approximately 10cm on either side of the door’s centerline.

For one-piece doors without track (B), position lock 35-60cm below top of door. For all other door types (A, C and D), position the lock 5075cm below the top of the door (refer to illustrations). If door

construction is metal, refer to special instructions contained in the "NOTE".

Figure E – Install Outside Quick Release:

Fasten template G at marked location. From outside of door, drill a 19mm diameter hole for the lock (1) and two 6,5mm side holes (2) for the 1/4"-20x2-1/2" mounting bolts (4). Drill all holes completely

through the door.

Uncoil cable attached to end of tumbler. Guide cable (3) through the 19mm diameter hole from outside the door. Insert lock assembly and position flush with door.

Insert the two mounting bolts into the side holes from outside of door. Fasten from the inside with 1/4" washers (5) and hex nuts (6). Tighten nuts securely.

NOTE: On a metal door, the template must be positioned so that all the drilled holes will pass through the inside reinforcement stile of the door, if possible.

Figure F – Remove rope from trolley release arm (1). Place free cable

loop (2) over one pin of the master link outside bar (3) as shown. Securely tie a loop (4) at free end of release rope and place over second pin in outside bar (5).

Push pin holding cable loop through hole in the release arm of the trolley. Push cap (6) onto the pins and into pin notches (7). Be sure cable loop and manual rope are secured to pins. Slide clip-on spring (8) over cap and lock onto pin notches.

Refer to Figures A, B, C and D; use plastic ties (4) to loosely secure the excess cable to door arm.

To Operate the Quick Release: Insert the key into lock and turn clockwise. Remove the key AND tumbler from the lock. Pull firmly on the cable. Do not pull on the key or tumbler. The outer trolley will disconnect from the inner trolley so the door can be opened manually.

Trolley sections will reconnect automatically when the opener is started. Replace tumbler in the lock. Turn the key counterclockwise. Remove the key.

12. Opener strains:

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.

13. Opener motor hums briefly, then won't work:

• Garage door springs are broken. SEE ABOVE.

• If problem occurs on first operation of opener, door is locked. Disable

door lock.

Repeat safety reverse test after adjustment is complete.

14. Opener won't activate due to power failure:

• Pull manual release rope and handle down to disconnect trolley.

Door can be opened and closed manually. When the power is restored, pull the manual release handle straight back. The next time the opener is activated, the trolley will reconnect.

• The Outside Quick Release accessory (if fitted) disconnects the

trolley from outside the garage in case of power failure.

15. Setting the limits manually:

1. Press and hold the black button until the yellow indicator light starts

flashing slowly then release.

2. Push and hold the black button until the door reaches the desired

UP (open) position. Adjust the position of the door by using the black and orange buttons. Black moves the door UP (open) and orange moves the door DOWN (close).

Check to be sure the door opens high enough for your vehicle.

3. Push the remote control or door control. This sets the UP (open)

limit and begins closing the door. Immediately press either the orange or the black button. The door will stop.

Adjust the desired DOWN (close) limit position using the black and orange buttons. Check to be sure the door is fully closed without applying excessive pressure on the rail (rail should not bow upwards and the chain/belt should not sag or droop below the rail). Push the remote control or door control. This sets the DOWN (close) limit and begins opening the door.

NOTE: If neither the black or the orange button is pressed before the door reaches the floor, the GDO will attempt an Automated Limit Setting, reversing the door off the floor and stopping at the set Up limit. If the worklight does not blink 10 times, limits setting has been successful and doesn't need to be manually done; the DOWN limit will be set to the floor.

Regardless of setting the limits automatically or manually, the force MUST be learned in order to properly complete the setting of limits. Refer to section 26, Setting the Force.

4. Open and close the door with the remote control or door control 2

or 3 times.

• If the door does not stop in the desired UP (open) position or reverses before the door stops at the DOWN (close) position, repeat Setting the limits manually one more time.

• If the door stops in both the desired UP (open) and DOWN (close) positions, proceed to Test the Safety Reversal System.

HAVING A PROBLEM?

1. Opener doesn't operate from either door control or remote:

• 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 1.

• 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.

2. Opener operates from remote 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 4.

3. Door operates from door control but not from remote:

• Replace battery if necessary.

• If you have two or more remotes and only one operates, review Program Your Opener, Remote and Keyless Entry steps 22 and 23.

• Is the door control button flashing? The opener is in lock mode. If you have a Multi-Function Door Control, push and hold the Lock button for 2 seconds. The door control button will stop flashing.

4. Remote has short range:

• Is battery installed?

• Change the location of the remote control on the car.

• Ametal garage door, foil-backed insulation or metal siding will reduce the transmission range.

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 floor area where garage door closes.

• Repeat Setting Limits and Force, see adjustment steps 25 and 26.

Repeat safety reverse test after adjustment is complete.

6. Door reverses for no apparent reason and opener light blinks

for 5 seconds after reversing:

Check The Protector System™ (if you have installed this accessory). If the light is blinking, correct alignment.

7. Opener noise is disturbing in living quarters of home:

If operational noise is a problem because of proximity of the opener to the living quarters, Vibration Isolator Kit 41A3263 can be installed. This kit was designed to reduce the "sounding board effect" and is easy to install.

8. The garage door opens and closes by itself:

Make sure remote push button is not stuck "on".

9. Door stops but doesn't close completely:

Repeat Setting the Limits, see adjustment step 25. Repeat safety reverse test after any adjustment of door arm length,

close force or down limit.

10. Door opens but won't close:

• Check The Protector System™ (if you have installed this accessory). If the light is blinking, correct alignment.

• If opener light does not blink and it is a new installation, repeat Setting the Limit and Force steps 25 and 26.

Repeat the safety reverse test after the adjustment is complete.

11. Opener light does not turn on:

Replace light bulb (24V/21W maximum). Replace burned out bulbs with rough service light bulbs.
