Operation of Your Opener
CAUTION
BEFORE YOU PROCEED, PLEASE READ THE SAFETY RULES ON PAGE 2 AND OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS ON THIS PAGE CAREFULLY.
TO AVOID DIFFICULTY DURING INSTALLATION, DO NOT RUN OPENER UNTIL INSTRUCTED TO DO SO.
USING THE OPENER
Your opener can be activated by any of the following devices:
1.The 3-Function Transmitter. Hold LARGE push button down until the door starts to move.
2.The Wall Control. Hold push bar down until the door starts to move.
3.The Key Switch or Touch Code Transmitter accessories. Descried on page 4.
OPENING THE DOOR MANUALLY
THE DOOR SHOULD BE FULLY CLOSED IF POSSIBLE. WEAK OR BROKEN SPRINGS COULD ALLOW AN OPEN DOOR TO FALL RAPIDLY. PROPERTY DAMAGE OR SERIOUS PERSONAL INJURY COULD RESULT. DO NOT USE EMERGENCY HANDLE TO PULL DOOR OPEN OR CLOSED.
The door can be operated manually by disconnecting it from the opener. Pull down sharply on the red emergency release handle and lift the door manually. To automatically reconnect the door to the opener, press the Wall Control push bar.
LOCKOUT FEATURE: prevents trolley from reconnecting automatically. If you need to use this feature, pull emergen^ handle down and back (toward the opener). Trolley will remain "Locked-Out" and door can be raised and lowered manually. To reconnect trolley, pull emergency handle straight down.
•DO NOT PERMIT CHILDREN TO PLAY IN DOOR AREA.
•OPERATE ONLY WHEN OPENER IS PROPERLY ADJUSTED AND THE DOOR IS VISIBLE AND UNOBSTRUCTED.
WHEN OPENER IS ACTIVATED:
1.If open, the door will close. If closed, the door will open.
2.If closing, the door will reverse.
3.If opening, the door will stop (allowing space for entry and exit of pets and for fresh air),
4.If the door has been stopped in a partially open position, it will close.
5.If an obstruction is encountered while closing, the door will reverse.
6.if an obstruction is encountered while opening, the door will stop.
7.If the optional ‘Infrared Sensor’ is installed, the garage door will reverse in the closing cycle when the invisible beam
is broken. An open door will not close when beam is broken. The sensor has no effect in the opening cycle.
OPENER LIGHTS will turn on under the following conditions: when the opener is initially plugged in; when the power is interrupted; when the opener is activated. They will turn off automatically after 4’/i minutes or provide constant light when Light Feature is activated. Bulb size 75 watts maximum.
CARE OF THE OPENER
When properly instiled, opener will provide high performance with a minimum of maintenance. The opener does not require additional lubrication.
Most complaints of unsatisfactory opener operation can be traced to problems with the door itself. When operated manually, a properly balanced door will stay in any point of travel while being supported entirely by its springs.
THE OPENER IS NOT INTENDED TO CORRECT ANY PROBLEMS THAT ARE CAUSED BY AN UNBALANCED OR BINDING DOOR, BROKEN DOOR SPRINGS OR BY FAULTY DOOR HARDWARE.
LIMIT AND FORCE ADJUSTMENTS: These a(fjustments must be checked and properly set when opener is installed. Only a screwdriver is required. Page 17 refers to the limit and force adjustments. Follow instructions carefully.
REPEAT SAFETY REVERSE TEST AFTER ANY ADJUST MENT OF FORCE AND/OR LIMITS. Weather conditions may cause some minor changes in door operation requir ing some readjustments, particularly during the first year of operation.
THE SAFETY REVERSE SYSTEM IS IMPORTANT (See pg. 18). GARAGE DOOR MUST REVERSE ON CONTACT WITH A ONE-INCH OBSTACLE PLACED ON THE FLOOR. FAILURE TO PROPERLY ADJUST OPENER MAY RESULT IN SERIOUS PERSONAL INJURY FROM A CLOSING GAR.<\GE DOOR.
CHAIN TENSION ADJUSTMENT; After installation of the opener and adjustment of forces and limits, the chain may appear loose. This is normal. To check the chain tension: disconnect the trolley by pulling the red emergency handle. If the chain returns to the position described and illustrated in Step 5 page 9, DO NCT make ANY further adjustments.
TRANSMITTER; The 3-function transmitter will operate more than one garage door opener, if desired. The other push but tons may also be used to operate 53000 and 53000SR Series light controls. Transmitter may be secured to car sun visor with clip provided. Additional transmitters can be purchased at any time. Refer to Accessories on page 4.
Any new transmitters must be set to the same code as the original transmitter. Page 19 explains how to change your existing code and use the transmitter(s) with other 53000 and 53000 SR receivers. Self service of your radio controls is rwt recommended. If service is needed, contact your nearest Sears Service Center.
TRANSMITTER BATTERY: The 12 Vblt battery should produce power for at least one year. As long as the battery power is adequate, the transmitter test light will glow when the push button is pressed (and the opener will operate).
When the light does not come on, replace the battery. If trartsmission range lessens, check battery test light.
TO CHANGE BATTERY Slide №e battery compartment cover down. Position new 12 Volt battery as directed.
