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 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 53702 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
reinforcement 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
(fiberglass, steel, aluminum, door with
glass panels, etc.). See page 23 for details.

ASSEMBLY STEP 1
Assemble the Rail & Install the Trolley
To avoid installation difficulties, 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 flat surface as shown and
slide the tapered ends into the larger ones. Tabs along
the side will lock into place.
To prevent INJURYfrom pinching, keep handsand fingers
awayfrom the joints while assemblingthe rail.
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 stop, insert a screwdriver into the hole
10" (25 cm) from the front end 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 SERIOUSINJURYor DEATH:
• Headerbracket MUST be RIGIDLYfastenedto structural
support on headerwall or ceiling, otherwise garagedoor
might not reversewhen required. DONOTinstall header
bracketover drywall.
• Concreteanchors MUSTbe usedif mounting header bracket
or 2x4 into masonry.
• NEVERtry to loosen, move or adjust garagedoor, springs,
cables,pulleys, brackets, or their hardware, all of which are
under EXTREMEtension.
• ALWAYScalla trained door systems technician if garage
door binds, sticks, or is out of balance.An unbalanced
garagedoor might not reversewhen 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 intersecting 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.
