To avoid damage to the garage door and opener, disable locks before installing and operating the opener. Use a wood screw or nail to hold locks in the "open" (unlocked) position.
Operation at other than 120V 60 Hz will cause opener malfunction and damage.
Identify the type and height of your door and any special conditions that exist and any additional materials that may be required by referring to page 4.
Before you begin, complete the following test to make sure your door is balanced, and is not sticking or binding:
• Lift the door about halfway as shown. Release the door. It should stay in place, supported entirely by its springs.
• Raise and lower the door to see if there is any binding or sticking.
An unbalanced garage door might not reverse when required and someone under the door could be seriously injured or killed.
If your garage door binds, sticks or is out of balance, call for professional garage door service .
Garage doors, door springs, cables, pulleys, brackets and their hardware, are under extreme tension and can cause serious injury or death.
Do not try to loosen, move or adjust
them yourself!
Ropes left on a garage door could cause someone to become entangled and killed.
Remove all ropes connected to the door before installing and operating the opener.

IMPORTANT INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

To reduce the risk of severe injury or death to persons:
1. READ AND FOLLOW ALL INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS.
2. Install only on a properly balanced and lubricated garage door.
An improperly balanced door
may not reverse and could result in severe injury or death.
Repairs to cables, spring assemblies
and other hardware must be made by a professional service person before installing opener.
3. Disable all locks and remove all ropes connected to the garage door before installing the opener.
Ropes connected to a garage door can cause entanglement and death.
4. If possible, install door opener 7 feet or more above floor with the manual release handle mounted 6 feet above the floor.
5. Do not connect the opener to power source until instructed to do so.
6. Locate the Door Control within sight of the door at a minimum height of 5 feet where small children cannot reach and away from all moving parts of the door.
7. Install the User Safety Instruction Label on the wall adjacent to the control button and the Maintenance Instruction Label in a prominent location on the inside of the garage door.
8. Upon completion of the installation, the door must reverse when it comes in contact with a 2x4 laid flat on the floor.
9. Do not wear watches, rings or loose clothing while installing or servicing an opener. Jewelry or loose clothing can be caught in the mechanism of the garage door or the opener.

Installation Step 6
Children operating or playing with a garage door opener can injure themselves or others.
The garage door could close and cause serious injury or death.
Install the Door Control (or any additional push buttons) out of the reach of children and away from all moving parts of the door and door hardware,
but where the garage door is visible.
Do not allow children to operate the push button(s) or the remote control transmitter(s).
A moving garage door could injure someone under it.
Activate the opener only when the door is properly adjusted, you can see it clearly, and there are no obstructions to door travel.

• Strip 1/4" of insulation from one end of the bell wire; connect the wire to the two screw terminals on the back of the Door Control by color: white to 2 and white/red to 1.
• Locate the Door Control within sight of the door
at a minimum height of 5 feet where small children cannot reach, and away from all moving parts of the door and door hardware.
Fasten the Multi-Function Door Control Panel securely with 6ABx1" screws. Fasten the Lighted Door Control Button securely with 6ABx1-1/2" screws. If installing into drywall, drill 5/32" holes and use the anchors provided.
• Run the bell wire up the wall and across the ceiling to the opener. Use insulated staples to secure the wire in several places. Be careful not to pierce the wire with a staple, thereby resulting in a short.
• Receiver terminals and the antenna are located on the back panel of the opener. Position the antenna wire as shown.
• Then connect the bell wire to the opener terminal screws: white to 2 and white/red to 1.
• Remember to affix the User Safety Instruction
label to the wall near the Door Control, and the Maintenance Instruction label in a prominent location on the inside of the garage door.
If the label adhesive will not adhere to your garage wall surface (or becomes loose with time) use tacks to secure the label alongside the Door Control.
Page 28 explains how to operate the opener using the door controls and the Lock & Light features available on the Multi-Function Door Control Panel.

Attach the Manual Release Rope and Handle
Do not use the red handle to pull the door open or closed.
The rope knot could become
untied and you could fall.
Use the manual release only to disengage the trolley and, if possible, only when the door is closed.
Garage doors are heavy. If the door is open when the handle is pulled, the door could close inadvertently if it is not properly balanced. Serious injury may result to persons under the door. Make sure the doorway is clear of persons and obstructions before pulling handle when door is open.
• Thread one end of the rope through the hole in the
top of the red handle so "NOTICE" reads right side up as shown. Secure with an overhand knot.
The knot should be at least 1" from the end of the rope to prevent slipping.
• Thread the other end of the rope through the hole in the release arm of the outer trolley.
• Adjust rope length so the handle is 6 feet above the floor. Secure with an overhand knot.
If it is necessary to cut the rope, heat seal the cut end with a match or lighter to prevent unraveling.

Information you'll need before you begin the installation of the safety reversing sensor.
Be sure power to the opener is disconnected.
The sending eye transmits an invisible light beam to the receiving eye.The units can be installed on either side of the garage door as long as the sun never shines directly into the receiving eye lens.
Look at the label on the connector end of each case to identify the sensors.
The brackets must be connected and fastened so that the sending and receiving eyes face each other as shown in Figure 1.
If an obstruction breaks the light beam while the garage door is closing, the door will stop and reverse to full open position; and the opener lights will flash for 5 seconds.
WARNING
WARNING
The safety reversing sensor
must
be connected and aligned correctly before the garage door opener will move in the down direction. This is a required safety device and cannot be disabled.
Installation procedures are the same for sectional and one-piece doors.
Without a properly working safety reversing sensor, persons (particularly children) could be injured or killed by a closing garage door.
Read and follow all instructions. To protect small children, install the safety
reversing sensor so that the beam will be no higher than 4"-6" above the garage floor.
Disconnect power to the garage door opener before installing the safety reversing sensor.
The brackets
must
be securely fastened to a solid surface such as the studs on either side of the door, or add a piece of wood at each location if installing in masonry construction.
The invisible light beam path must be unobstructed. No part of the garage door (or door tracks, springs, hinges, rollers or other hardware) can interrupt the beam while the door is closing. If it does, use a piece of wood to build out each sensor mounting location to the minimum depth required for light beam clearance.

Installation Step 11
To prevent damage to steel, aluminum, fiberglass or glass panel doors, always reinforce the inside of the door both vertically and horizontally with angle iron.
A horizontal brace should be long enough to be secured to 2 vertical supports. A vertical brace should cover the height of the top panel.
The illustration shows one piece of angle iron as the horizontal brace. For the vertical brace, 2 pieces of angle iron are used to create a "U"-shaped support. The best solution is to check with your garage door manufacturer for an opener installation door reinforcement kit.
• Center the door bracket on the previously marked vertical guideline used for the header bracket installation.
Note correct UP placement, as
stamped inside the bracket.
• Position the bracket on the face of the door within the following limits:
A) The top edge of the bracket 2"-4" below the top
edge of the door.
B) The top edge of the bracket directly below any
structural support across the top of the door.
• Mark and drill 5/16" left and right fastening holes. Secure the bracket as shown in Figure 1 if there is vertical reinforcement.
If your installation doesn't require vertical reinforce­ment but does need top and bottom fastening holes for the door bracket, fasten as shown in Figure 2.

On one-piece doors, before connecting the door arm to the trolley the travel limits must be adjusted. Limit adjustment screws are located on the left side panel as shown on page 24. Follow adjustment procedures below.
Adjustment Procedures for One-Piece Doors
Open Door Adjustment:
Decrease UP limit
• Turn the UP limit adjustment screw counter­clockwise 5-1/2 turns.
• Press the Door Control button/push bar. The trolley will travel to the fully open position.
• Manually raise the door to the open position (parallel to the floor), and lift the door arm to the trolley. The arm should touch the trolley just in back of the door arm connector hole. Refer to the fully open trolley/door arm positions in the illustration. If the arm does not extend far enough, adjust the limit further. One full turn equals 2" of trolley travel.
Closed Door Adjustment:
Decrease DOWN limit
• Turn the DOWN limit adjustment screw clockwise 5 complete turns.
• Press the Door Control button/push bar. The trolley will travel to the fully closed position.
• Manually close the door and lift the door arm to the trolley. The arm should touch the trolley just ahead of the door arm connector hole. Refer to the fully closed trolley/door arm positions in the illustration. If the arm is behind the connector hole, adjust the limit further. One full turn equals 2" of trolley travel.
Connect the door arm to the trolley.
• Close the door and join the curved arm to the connector hole in the trolley with the remaining clevis pin. It may be
necessary to lift the door slightly to make the connection.
• Secure with a ring fastener.
• Run the opener through a complete travel cycle. If the door has a slight "backward" slant in full open position as shown in the illustration, decrease the UP limit until the door is parallel to the floor.

Too much force on the door will interfere with the proper operation of the safety reverse system.
The door might not reverse properly when required and could seriously injure or kill someone under it.
Do not increase the force beyond the minimum amount required to close the door. Do not use the force adjustments to compensate for a binding or sticking garage door. Test the safety reverse system following all adjustments to force levels. See page 26.
Force adjustment controls are located on the back panel of the opener. Force adjustment settings regulate the amount of power required to open and close the door.

How and When to Adjust the Forces
Test the DOWN (close) force
Grasp the door bottom when the door is about halfway through DOWN (close) travel. The door should reverse.
Reversal halfway through down travel does not guarantee reversal on a one-inch obstruction. See page 26.
If the door is hard to hold or doesn't reverse, decrease the DOWN (close) force by turning the control counterclockwise.
Make 10 degree turn adjustments until the door reverses normally. After each adjustment, run the opener through a complete cycle.
Test the UP (open) force
Grasp the door bottom when the door is about halfway through UP (open) travel. The door should stop. If the door is hard to hold or doesn't stop, decrease UP (open) force by turning the control counterclockwise.
Make 10 degree turn adjustments until the door stops easily. After each adjustment, run the opener through a complete travel cycle.
If the door doesn't open

To reduce the risk of severe injury or death to persons:
1. READ AND FOLLOW ALL INSTRUCTIONS.
2. Do not permit children either to operate or to play with the opener. Keep remote control in a location inaccessible to children.
3. Operate opener only when the door is in full view and free from any obstruction. Keep the door in sight until it is completely closed. NO ONE SHOULD CROSS THE PATH OF THE MOVING DOOR.
4. Check safety reversal system monthly. See page 26. The garage door
MUST
reverse on contact with a 2x4 board laid flat placed on the floor. If an adjustment is made to either the force or the limit of travel, both adjustments may be needed and the safety reversal system must be checked.
Failure to properly adjust the opener may result in severe injury or death.
5. If possible, use the manual release only when the door is in a closed position. Caution should be taken whenever the disconnect cord is actuated with the door open.
Weak or broken springs may
cause the door to fall rapidly, causing injury or death to persons
.
6. KEEP GARAGE DOORS PROPERLY BALANCED. See page 3.
An improperly balanced door may not
reverse when required and could result in severe injury or death
. Repairs to cables, spring
assemblies and other hardware must be made by a professional garage door person.
7. Disconnect the electric power from the garage door opener before making any repairs or removing the covers.

NOTICE: To comply with FCC rules, adjustment or modifications of this receiver and/or transmitter are prohibited, except for changing the code setting or replacing the battery. THERE ARE NO OTHER USER
SERVICEABLE PARTS.
To Add the Keyless Entry
We recommend that you program your code before you install the Keyless Entry. You will not need assistance, and you can test the reception at the mounting location before installation.
1. Choose a 4-digit code using numbers from 0 to 9. You can use a number more than once (for example, 4, 0, 4, 1). Press the selected code digits on the keypad.
2. Press and
hold
the Enter button while you press the “Smart” (learn) button on the opener panel. The indicator light will blink and the door will begin to move.
3. Release the Enter button. Now the opener has learned the selected keypad code.
To ensure that your portable remote control codes were not disturbed while you were programming the Keyless Entry, test your remotes and reprogram them if necessary.
To change the code at any time, repeat steps 1-3.
Children operating or playing with a garage door opener can injure themselves or others.
The garage door could close and cause serious injury or death.
Do not allow children to operate the Door Control or remote control transmitter(s).
A moving garage door could injure or kill someone under it.
Activate the opener only when you can see the door clearly, it is free of obstructions, and is properly adjusted.
Code programming instructions are also located on the opener panel.

Having a Problem?

Opener operates from the remote, but not from Door Control:
1. Is the door control lit? If not, remove the bell wire from the opener terminals. Short the red and white terminals by touching both terminals at the same time with a piece of wire. If the opener runs, check for a faulty wire connection at the door control, a short under the staples, or a broken wire.
2. Are the wiring connections correct? Review Step 6, page 14.
The door operates from the Door Control, but not from the remote control:
1. If your model has the Lock feature, turn it
The remote control has short range:
The garage door opens and closes by itself:
1. Be sure that all remote control push buttons and battery indicator lights are off.
2. Remove the bell wire from the door control terminals and operate from the remote
only. If this solves the problem, the door control is faulty (replace), or there is an intermittent short on the wire between the door control and the opener.
The door doesn't open completely:
1. If the door has been working properly but now doesn't open all the way, increase the
up force.
See page 25.
2. Is something obstructing the door? Remove the obstruction or repair the door.
3. If door opens at least 5 feet, the travel limits may need to be increased. One turn
equals 2 inches of travel. See page 24.
Repeat the safety reverse test after the adjustment is complete.
The door stops but doesn't close completely:
Review the travel limits adjustment procedures on page 24.
Repeat the safety reverse test after any adjustment of door arm length, close force or down limit.
1. Check the battery test light. If the light is dim, replace the battery.
2. Change the location of the remote control in your car.
3. Check to be sure the antenna on the side or back panel of opener extends fully
downward.
4. Some installations may have shorter range due to a metal door, foil backed insulation,
or metal garage siding.
Opener noise is disturbing in living quarters of home:
If operational noise is a problem because of proximity of the opener to the living quarters, the Vibration Isolator Kit 41A3263 can be installed. This kit was designed to minimize vibration to the house and is easy to install.
30
Situation Probable Cause & Solution
The opener doesn't operate from either the Door Control or the remote control:
1. Does the opener have electric power? Plug a lamp into the outlet. If it doesn't light,
check the fuse box or the circuit breaker. (Some outlets are controlled by a wall switch.)
2. Have you disabled all door locks? Review installation instruction warnings on page 7.
3. Is there a build-up of ice or snow under the door? The door may be frozen to the
ground. Remove any restriction.
4. The garage door spring may be broken. Have it replaced.
5. Repeated operation may have tripped the overload protector in the motor. Wait 15
minutes. Try again.
off
2. Is the wall push button flashing? Your opener needs to re-learn a remote control
code. Refer to instructions on the opener panel.
3. Does the battery test light glow when the remote control push button is pressed? If
not, replace the battery.
4. Program the receiver to match the remote control code.
5. Repeat the receiver programming procedure with all remote controls.

The chain droops or sags:
It is normal for the chain to droop slightly in the closed door position. Use the manual release rope and handle to disconnect the trolley. If the chain returns to the normal height when the trolley is disengaged and the door reverses on a 2x4 laid flat, no adjustments are needed. (See page 7.)

Having a Problem?
(continued)
Situation Probable Cause & Solution
The door reverses for no apparent reason and opener lights don't blink:
1. Is something obstructing the door? Pull the manual release handle. Operate the door manually. If it is unbalanced or binding, call for professional garage door service.
2. Clear any ice or snow from the garage floor area where the door closes.
3. Review the force adjustment procedures on page 25.
4. If door reverses in the
The opener strains or maximum force is needed to operate door:
The door may be out of balance or the springs are broken. Close the door and use the manual release to disconnect the trolley. Open and close the door manually. A properly balanced door will stay in any point of travel while being supported entirely by its springs. If it does not, disconnect the opener and call a professional garage door serviceman.
Do not
increase the force to operate the opener.
The opener motor hums briefly, then won't work:
1. The garage door springs are broken. See above.
2. If the problem occurs on the first operation of the opener, door may be locked.
Disable

. If the chain was removed and reinstalled, the motor may be out of phase. Remove the chain; cycle the motor to the down position. Observe the drive sprocket. When it turns in a clockwise direction and stops in the down position, reinstall the chain.
Repeat the safety reverse test after the adjustment is complete.
The opener won't operate due to power failure:
1. Use the manual release to disconnect the trolley. The door can be opened and closed manually. When the power is restored, press the Door Control push bar and trolley will automatically reconnect (unless trolley is in lockout position.) See page 28.
2. The Outside Quick Release accessory (for use on garages with no service door) disconnects the trolley from outside the garage in case of power failure.
The door opens but won't close:
Check the safety reversing sensor. Remove any obstruction or align the receiving eye. See page 19.
1. If the opener lights blink, check the safety reversing sensor. See page 19.
2. If the opener lights do not blink and it is a new installation, check the down force. See Adjustment Step 2, page 25. For an existing installation, see below.
Repeat the safety reverse test after the adjustment is complete.
The door reverses for no apparent reason and opener lights blink for 5 seconds after reversing:
