3 Garage Door Opener Maintenance
Weather conditions may affect the door operation which could require some re-setting of the opener’s adjustments. Doors may swell and become heavier during wet periods, door hinges and rollers might bind during cold periods. To insure safe operation of the door, perform the following tests, including any additional test steps described.
Every Month
1 With the door closed, pull the red release handle to
disconnect the opener from the door.
2 From outside the garage, slowly open the door
manually all the way, and then close it all the way. Notice if there is any binding, sticking or rubbing. The door should move smoothly in both directions.
3 Raise the garage door about halfway up. Carefully
release the door and see if the door balances. It should stay in place. Close the door.
NOTE: If the garage door is unbalanced or the
door travel isn’t smooth, have a qualifi ed garage door professional adjust or repair the door.
4 To reconnect the opener, fl ip the release lever up.
Raise the door manually until the opener reconnects.
5 Perform the Safety Beam Test (Section 4).
6 Perform the Safety Reversal System Test as described
in Steps 4-6 in Section 6.
After Servicing the Opener
1 Perform the Safety Beam Test (Section 4).
2 Perform the Open and Close Limit Adjustments
(Section 5).
3 Perform the entire Door Force Safety System Test
(Section 6).
Every 6 Months
Check the belt or chain tension.
• For belt-drive rails, examine the length of the tension spring in the traveler. It should be about 1” long.
• For chain-drive rails, examine the spacing between the turnbuckle and the rail. The turnbuckle should be slightly above the rail.
NOTE: Too much or too little chain tension will cause
excessive sprocket noise.
Chain Adjustment
If necessary, use the following steps to adjust the chain.
1 Hold the turnbuckle with a fl at blade screwdriver and
loosen the two locknuts with a 7/16” end wrench.
2 Twist the turnbuckle to adjust the chain tension. Adjust
the chain until the turnbuckle is sightly above the rail.
3 Hold the turnbuckle with a fl at blade screwdriver and
tighten the two locknuts with a 7/16” end wrench.
Belt Adjustment
The tension spring in the traveler keeps the belt taut. The factory setting for the tension spring length is .9” long. If the tension spring is longer than 1”, adjust the belt.
1 Hold the traveler so the adjustment wheel is visible
through the large slot.
2 Use a fl at blade screwdriver to turn the adjustment
wheel to compress the tension spring until its length is between .9” and 1” long.
Every Year
Check the door hardware for lubrication needs. Lubricate door hinges, rollers and bearings according to door manufacturer’s recommended procedures.

4 Testing the Infrared Safety Beam
The safety beam has two components, a sender and a receiver. The sender produces a narrow infrared beam that travels across the bottom of the door opening to the infrared receiver. If an object blocks the infrared beam while the door is closing, the door will stop, then reverse and fully open (the opener’s light will fl ash three times).
As a safety feature, the opener will ignore signals from all remote controls if the door is open and the infrared safety beam is blocked or out of alignment. In this case, the door can be forced closed by pressing and holding the wall station’s up/down arrow pushbutton (be sure the door area is in clear view).
WARNING
With the door closed, disengage the trolley from the chain during these alignment tests by pulling the red release handle.
Safety Beam Test
1 Check that the opener has power. The green lights on
the sender and receiver should be lit.
Serious injury or death from a closing garage door may result because of failure to test and adjust safety reverse system. Repeat this test monthly and adjust as needed.
SAFETY BEAM INDICATORS
WARNING
2 If the receiver’s green light is on, but the red light is off,
the receiver has power but is not detecting the infrared beam from the sender. The red light might fl ash when the beam is partially detected. This can be caused by mis-alignment or something blocking the beam. Adjust the safety beam sender and receiver while watching the receiver’s red light (stay out of the beam while aligning it). When the red light stays on, the beam is aligned.

5 Adjusting the Open and Close Limits
The limit adjustments that control how far the door will open or close are located on the side of the opener. The limits should be adjusted so the door opens just short of any door stops, and closes right at the fl oor level. Each full turn of a limit adjustment equals about 2-½” of door
travel.
CAUTION
Set the open and close limits carefully. Setting the limits beyond the distance that the door can travel could cause damage to the door, the door hardware, or opener.
1 Star t with the door in the closed position.
2 Activate the remote control. Wait while the door moves
to the open position and stops.
3 Examine the position of the door.
• If the door needs to open more, turn the OPEN LIMIT adjustment clockwise ¼-turn (towards UP on the label) to raise the open limit.
• If the door needs to open less, turn the OPEN LIMIT adjustment counterclockwise ¼-turn (towards DOWN on the label) to lower the open limit.
NOTE: On jamb doors, set the open limit so the door
stops just short of level (see fi gure).
4 Activate the remote control. Wait for the door to move
down a few feet, then activate the remote control again to stop the door.
5 Repeat Steps 2-4 until the open limit is properly
adjusted.
6 Activate the remote control. Wait while the door moves
to the closed position and stops.
7 Examine the position of the door.
• If the door needs to close more, turn the CLOSE LIMIT adjustment counterclockwise ¼-turn (towards DOWN on the label) to lower the close limit.
• If the door needs to close less, turn the CLOSE LIMIT adjustment clockwise ¼-turn (towards UP on the label) to raise the close limit.
8 Activate the remote control. Wait for the door to move
up a few feet, then activate the remote control again to stop the door.
9 Repeat Steps 6-8 until the close limit is properly
adjusted.
NOTE: If the door stops during opening or reverses
during closing before reaching the limits, the door force adjustment needs to be set. Change the adjustment as described in the next section then return to this step to fi nish setting the limits.

6 Testing & Adjusting the Door Force Safety System
The door force adjustments are located on the side of the opener. The door force adjustments must be properly set at all times. The CLOSE FORCE adjustment controls how much force is required to cause the door to reverse
direction if an obstruction is encountered during closing. The OPEN FORCE adjustment controls how much force is required to stop the door if an obstruction is encountered during opening.
WARNING
SETTING THE DOOR FORCE
Too much door force will interfere with the proper operation of the safety system. SOMEONE COULD BE SERIOUSLY INJURED OR KILLED IF THE DOOR FORCE IS SET TOO HIGH. A closing door might not reverse properly when required and someone could be pinned under it. An opening door might not stop when going up and someone hanging on the door could get pinned between the door and the header. Do not increase the door force beyond what is required to move the door. DO NOT USE THE DOOR FORCE ADJUSTMENT TO COMPENSATE FOR A BINDING OR STICKING GARAGE DOOR. PERFORM THE SAFETY REVERSAL
