WARNING

CAUTION

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 malfunction and damage.

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.

• This product is for use on sectional garage doors only. SERIOUS INJURY could result from the use of this product on one piece garage doors.

Preparing your garage door

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.

SECTIONAL DOOR INSTALLATION

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.

Without a properly working safety reversal system, persons (particularly small children) could be SERIOUSLY INJURED or KILLED by a closing garage door.

• The gap between the bottom of the garage door and the floor MUST NOT exceed 1/4" (6 mm). Otherwise, the safety reversal system may not work properly.

• The floor or the garage door MUST be repaired to eliminate the gap.

WARNING

Horizontal and vertical reinforcement is needed for lightweight garage doors (fiberglass, steel, aluminum, door with glass panels, etc.). See page 18 for details.

Motor Unit

ASSEMBLY STEP 1

Attach the Rail to the Motor Unit

To avoid installation difficulties, do not run the garage door opener until instructed to do so.

• Place the opener on packing material to protect the cover.

• Remove the (2) 5/16"-18x1/2" washered bolts mounted in the top of the motor unit.

• Position rail at a 45˚ angle to opener so one hole in rail and motor unit line up.

• Thread one of the washered bolts part way in.

Use only these bolts! Use of any other bolts will cause serious damage to door opener.

• Align rail over sprocket. Cut tape from rail.

To avoid SERIOUS damage to opener, ONLY use bolts/fasteners mounted in top of motor unit.

WARNING

ASSEMBLY STEP 2

Attach the Chain to the Sprocket and Install the Rail Support Bracket

• Guide the chain over chain spreader and opener sprocket. If necessary, loosen the outer nut on the trolley to obtain more chain slack. Insert the second washered bolt. Use only the bolts previously

removed from opener.

• Tighten both bolts securely through the rail into the opener as shown.

• Position the rail support bracket on the opener.

• Attach the bracket to the rail with 1/4"-20x5/8" hex bolts and lock washers. Do not overtighten.

• Attach the bracket to the opener by inserting a 5/16"-18x1/2" washered bolt through a hole in each side flange and a matching hole in the bracket. Complete the connection by inserting the #8-32x3/8" screw through the back flange and the hole in rail support.

Proceed to Assembly Step 3.

To avoid possible SERIOUS INJURY to fingers from moving garage door opener:

• ALWAYS keep hand clear of sprocket while operating opener.

• Securely attach rail support bracket BEFORE operating.

ASSEMBLY STEP 3

Tighten the Chain

• Spin the inner nut and lock washer down the threaded shaft, away from the trolley.

• To tighten the chain, turn outer nut in the direction shown. As you turn the nut, keep the chain

from twisting.

• When the chain is approximately 1/2" (1.27 cm) above the base of the rail at its midpoint, re-tighten the inner nut to secure the adjustment.

Sprocket noise can result if chain is either too loose or too tight.

When installation is complete, you may notice some chain droop with the door closed. This is normal. If the chain returns to the position shown when the door is open, do not re-adjust the chain.

NOTE: During future maintenance, ALWAYS pull the emergency release handle to disconnect trolley before adjusting chain.

You have now finished assembling your garage door opener. Please read the following warnings before proceeding to the installation section.

IMPORTANT INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

1. READ AND FOLLOW ALL INSTALLATION WARNINGS AND INSTRUCTIONS.

2. Install garage door opener only on properly balanced and lubricated garage door. An improperly balanced door may not reverse when required and could result in SEVERE INJURY or DEATH.

3. All repairs to cables, spring assemblies and other hardware MUST be made by a trained door systems technician BEFORE installing opener.

4. Disable all locks and remove all ropes connected to garage door BEFORE installing opener to avoid entanglement.

5. Install garage door opener 7 feet (2.13 m) or more above floor.

6. Mount emergency release handle 6 feet (1.83 m) above floor.

7. NEVER connect garage door opener to power source until instructed to do so.

8. NEVER wear watches, rings or loose clothing while installing or servicing opener. They could be caught in garage door or opener mechanisms.

9. Install wall-mounted garage door control:

• within sight of the garage door

• out of reach of children at minimum height of 5 feet (1.5 m) away from all moving parts of the door.

10. Place entrapment warning label on wall next to garage door control.

11. Place manual release/safety reverse test label in plain view on inside of garage door.

12. Upon completion of installation, test safety reversal system. Door MUST reverse on contact with a 1-1/2" (3.8 cm) high object (or a 2x4 laid flat) on the floor.

To reduce the risk of SEVERE INJURY or DEATH:

INSTALLATION STEP 1

Determine the Header Bracket Location

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 9) when clearance is minimal. (It may be mounted on the wall upside down if necessary, to gain approximately 1/2" [1.27 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 9.

3. Open your door to the highest point of travel as

shown. Draw an intersecting horizontal line on the header wall 2" (5 cm) above the high point. This height will provide travel clearance for the top edge of the door.

Proceed to Step 2, page 9.

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.

You can attach the header bracket either to the wall above the garage door, or to the ceiling. Follow the instructions which will work best for your particular requirements. Do not install the header bracket

over drywall. If installing into masonry, use concrete anchors (not provided).

WALL HEADER BRACKET INSTALLATION

• Center the bracket on the vertical centerline with the bottom edge of the bracket on the horizontal line as shown (with the arrow pointing toward the ceiling).

• Mark the vertical set of bracket holes (do not use the holes designated for ceiling mount). Drill 3/16" pilot holes and fasten the bracket securely to a structural support with the hardware provided.

way you’ll need help. Have someone hold the opener securely on a temporary support to allow the rail to clear the spring.

• Position the chain pulley bracket against the header bracket.

• Align the bracket holes and join with a clevis pin as shown.

• Insert a ring fastener to secure.
