THE HEADER BRACKET MUST BE RfGIDLY FASTENED TO THE HEADER WALL OR CElLtNG. REINFORCE
WALL OR CEILING WITH 2x4 IF NECESSARY.

STEP 2 Position & Install Header Bracket

Locate height for header bracket by opening door to
highest point of travel as shown. Draw a horizontal
line on header wall 2" above high point This height
provides travel clearance for top edge of door

When headroom is not sufficient for 2" clearance,
bottom edge of bracket may be placed parallel to the
high point of travel, or bracket may be attached to
ceiling

Optional Quick Turn Brackets are designed for low
headroom installations They replace top brackets
and rollers on the garage door, thereby lowering the
high point of door travel Installation instructions are
contained in the accessory carton

from top of door to floor. Subtract actual height of
door Add 8" to the remainder See example below.

If the total number of inches exceeds the height

available in your garage, use the maximum height

possible On finished ceilings, do not position the

bracket closer than 1/2" from ceiling.

Measuring from top of door, draw a horizontal line on

the header wall at the determined height Position

bottom edge of header bracket on horizontal line,

centering bracket on vertical line. Mark either top

STEPS

Attach Tee Rail to Header Bracket

PROCEDURE: Position opener chassis on garage

floor below door and header brackets. Use packing
material base to protect cover, iSiOTE: To enable

Tee rail to clear sectional door springs, it may be

necessary to lift the chassis onto a temporary
support.

CAUTION: Chassis must either be secured to sup
port or held firmly in place by another person.

Raise Tee rail until cable pulley and header brackets
come together, Align bracket holes and join with
clevis pin as shown. Insert and spread cotter pin to

secure.

INSTALLATION

NOTE: A 2x4 Is convenient for setting an ideal
door-tO'Tee rail distance. It is not necessary
where headroom is insufficient.

PROCEDURE: Raise the opener chassis onto a

stepladder. Open the garage door. Place a 2x4 on
edge on top section of door directly above door

bracket. Rest Tee rail on 2x4,

ONE-PIECE DOOR

INSTALLATION

PROCEDURE: Measure the distance from floor to

top of door (in fully open position and parallel to
floor).

Using a stepladder as a support, raise the opener
chassis to the same distance from the floor (chassis
will have a slight angle as shown)

The top of the door should be level with the top of the

opener For maximum efficiency, do not position the

opener chassis more than 2 inches above this point,

STEPS

TO AVOID SERIOUS PERSONAL INJURY FROM ENTANGLEMENT, REMOVE ALL ROPES CONNECTEDTO THE
GARAGE DOOR BEFORE OPERATING DOOR OPENER.

REMOVE EXISTING GARAGE DOOR LOCKS OR USE A WOOD SCREW OR NAIL TO MAKE THEM INOPERATIVE,
INSTALLATION AND WIRING MUST BE IN COMPLIANCE WITH LOCAL BUILDING AND ELECTRICAL CODES.
OPERATION AT OTHER THAN 120V 60Hz WILL CAUSE OPENER MALFUNCTION AND DAMAGE,

IF LOCAL ELECTRICAL CODES DO NOT REQUIRE
PERMANENT WIRING: Insert the 3-prong plug into a
3-hole receptacle. UNIT MUST BE GROUNDED, DO
NOT USE A 2-WIRE ADAPTER,

IF LOCAL CODES REQUIRE PERMANENT WIRING:
Refer to illustration,,

PROCEDURE: Make connection through 7/8 inch

diameter hole in top of opener chassis,

1. Remove opener chassis cover by removing the 4
cover screws,

2. Remove attached 3-prong cord,

3. Connect black (line) wire to black wire on terminal
block; white (neutral) wire to white terminal wire; green

(ground) wire to green ground screw

Coimect Eiectric Power

CAUTION: BE SURE UNIT IS GROUNDED

4. If the door has been stopped in a partially open position (refer to 3. above), it will close.

5. If an obstruction is encountered while closing, the door wilt reverse.

6. If an obstruction is encountered while opening, the door will stop.

When the opener is activated, lights will turn on. They will turn off automatically after4-l/2 minutes. BULB SlZE-75

watts maximum. When Work Light is ON, the lights will remain on.

OPENING THE DOOR MANUALLY

The door can be operated manually by disconnecting it from the opener. Simply pul! down sharply on the red

emergency release handle. The door may now be lifted manually DO NOTUSE EMERGENCY ROPE AND HANDLE

TO PULL THE DOOR OPEN OR CLOSED. To automatically reconnect the door to the opener, press the Wall Control

push button
CARE OF THE OPENER
When properly installed, your opener will perform efficiently with a minimum of maintenance. You will be required to

replace a light bulb or change a transmitter battery from time to time. A 9-Volt Alkaline battery is the most reliable, and

is available at Sears.
The opener does not require additional lubrication - HOWEVER - the door rollers, bearings and hinges should be

oiled yearly.

Most complaints of unsatisfactory opener operation can be traced to problems with the door itself. The opener is not
intended to correct problems caused by an unbalanced or binding door, broken door springs orfaulty door hardware.

When operating the door manually, a properly balanced door will stay in any point of travel while being supported

soley by its springs, if you encounter any difficulty when operating door manually, call a garage door serviceman,
RADIO CONTROLS
Refer to pages 22 and 23 for complete details.
LIMIT AND FORCE ADJUSTMENTS

Refer to pages 18 and 19 for limit and force adjustments These adjustments must be checked and properly set when opener
is installed Weather conditions may cause minor changes in door operation requiring some change in adjustments,
particularly during the first year of operation. Only a screwdriver is required. Follow instructions carefully.

CHAIN TENSION ADJUSTMENT
After installation of opener and adjustment of forces and limits, chain may appear loose. This is normal. TO CHECK

CHAIN TENSION: disconnect the trolley by pulling red emergency handle. If chain returns to position described in

Step 5. Page 9, DO NOT make further adjustments.

has power (and the opener will operate). When light

does not come on, replace battery. If transmission

range lessens, check battery light,

THE BATTERY

The battery should produce adequate po\«er for

approximately one year. Avoid the inconvenience of
unexpected battery failure by replacing it annualiy,
preferably before winter. Alkaline batteries are the
