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,

INSTALLATION STEP 6

Install the Door Control

Locate door control within sight of door, at a minimum height of 5 feet (1.5 m) where small children cannot reach,

away from moving parts of door and door hardware. If installing into drywall, drill 5/32" holes and use the

anchors provided. For pre-wired installations (as in new home construction), it may be mounted to a single gang

box (Figure 2).

1.Strip 7/16" (11 mm) of insulation from one end of bell wire and connect to the two screw terminals on back of

door control by color: white wire to 2 and white/red wire to the 1.

2. Remove cover by gently prying at slot in top of the cover with a small flat head screwdriver. Fasten with

6ABx1-1/4" self-tapping screws (drywall installation) or 6-32x1" machine screws (into gang box) as follows:

• Install bottom screw, allowing 1/8" (3 mm) to protrude

above wall surface.

• Position bottom of door control on screw head and

slide down to secure. Adjust screw for snug fit.

• Drill and install top screw with care to avoid cracking

plastic housing. Do not overtighten.

• Insert top tabs and snap on cover.

3. (For standard installation only) Run bell wire up wall and across ceiling to motor unit. Use insulated staples

to secure wire in several places. Do not pierce wire with a staple, creating a short or open circuit.

4. Strip 7/16" (11 mm) of insulation from end of bell wire. Connect bell wire to the quick-connect terminals as

follows: white to white and white/red to red.

NOTE: When connecting multiple door controls to the opener, twist same color wires together. Insert wires into

quick-connect holes: white to white and red/white to red.

5. Position the antenna wire as shown.

6. Use tacks or staples to permanently attach entrapment warning label to wall near door control, and manual

release/safety reverse test label in a prominent location on inside of garage door.

NOTE: DO NOT connect power and operate opener at

this time. The trolley will travel to the full open position

INSTALLATION STEP 9

Electrical Requirements

To avoid installation difficulties, do not run the opener at this time.

To reduce the risk of electric shock, your garage door opener has a grounding type plug with a third grounding

pin. This plug will only fit into a grounding type outlet. If the plug doesn't fit into the outlet you have, contact a

qualified electrician to install the proper outlet.

RIGHT_

If permanent wiring is required by your local code, refer to the following procedure.

To make a permanent connection through the 7/8" hole in the top of the motor unit:

• Remove the motor unit cover screws and set the cover aside.

• Remove the attached 3-prong cord.

• Connect the black (line) wire to the screw on the brass terminal; the white (neutral) wire to the screw on the

silver terminal; and the ground wire to the green ground screw. The opener must be grounded.

• Reinstall the cover.

To avoid installation difficulties, do not run the opener at this time.

WRONG_

Toprevent possible SERIOUSINJURYor DEATHfrom electrocution or fire:

• Besure power is not connectedto the opener,and disconnect power to circuit BEFOREremoving cover to establish permanentwiring connection.

• Garagedoor installation and wiring MUSTbe in compliance with ALL localelectrical and building codes.

• NEVERusean extension cord, 2-wire adapter orchange plug in anyway to makeit fit outlet. Besure the opener is grounded.

Install The Protector System ®

The safety reversing sensor must be connected and aligned correctly before the garage door opener will

move in the down direction. IMPORTANT INFORMATION ABOUT THE SAFETY

REVERSING SENSOR

When properly connected and aligned, the sensor will detect an obstacle in the path of its electronic beam. The

sending eye (with an amber indicator light) transmits an invisible light beam to the receiving eye (with a green

indicator light). If an obstruction breaks the light beam while the door is closing, the door will stop and reverse to

full open position, and the opener lights will flash 10 times. The units must be installed inside the garage so that the

sending and receiving eyes face each other across the door, no more than 6" (15 cm) above the floor. Either can

be installed on the left or right of the door as long as the sun never shines directly into the receiving eye lens.

The mounting brackets are designed to clip onto the track of sectional garage doors without additional hardware.

Be sure power is not connectedto the garage door opener BEFOREinstalling the safety reversingsensor.

Toprevent SERIOUSINJURYor DEATHfrom aclosing garage door:

• Correctly connect and alignthe safety reversingsensor. This

required safety device MUSTNOTbe disabled.

• Install the safety reversingsensor so beamis NOHIGHER

than 6"(15 cm) abovegarage floor.

If it is necessary to mount the units on the wall, the brackets must be securely fastened to a solid surface

such as the wall framing. Extension brackets (see Accessories) are available if needed. If installing in

masonry construction, add a piece of wood at each location to avoid drilling extra holes in masonry if

repositioning is necessary. The invisible light beam path must be unobstructed. No

part of the garage door (or door tracks, springs, hinges, rollers or other hardware) may interrupt the beam while

the door is closing.

Facing the door from inside the garage

INSTALLING THE BRACKETS Be sure power to the opener is disconnected. Install

and align the brackets so the sensors will face each other across the garage door, with the beam no higher than 6"

(15 cm) above the floor. They may be installed in one of three ways, as follows.

Garage door track installation (preferred):

• Slip the curved arms over the rounded edge of each door track, with the curved arms facing the door. Snap

into place against the side of the track. It should lie flush, with the lip hugging the back edge of the track, as

shown in Figure 1.

If your door track will not support the bracket securely, wall installation is recommended.

Wall installation (Figure 2 & 3):

• Place the bracket against the wall with curved arms facing the door. Be sure there is enough clearance for

the sensor beam to be unobstructed.

• If additional depth is needed, an extension bracket (see Accessories) or wood blocks can be used.

• Use bracket mounting holes as a template to locate and drill (2) 3/16" diameter pilot holes on the wall at each

side of the door, no higher than 6" (15 cm) above the floor.

• Attach brackets to wall with lag screws (not provided).

• If using extension brackets or wood blocks, adjust right and left assemblies to the same distance out from the

mounting surface. Make sure all door hardware obstructions are cleared.

Floor installation (Figure 4):

• Use wood blocks or extension brackets (see Accessories) to elevate sensor brackets so the lenses

will be no higher than 6" (15 cm) above the floor.

• Carefully measure and place right and left assemblies at the same distance out from the wall. Be sure all door

hardware obstructions are cleared.

• Fasten to the floor with concrete anchors as shown.

MOUNTING AND WIRING THE SAFETY REVERSING SENSORS

• Slide a 1/4"-20xl/2" carriage bolt head into the slot on each sensor. Use wing nuts to fasten sensors to brackets, with lenses pointing toward each other across

the door. Be sure the lens is not obstructed by a bracket extension (Figure 5).

• Finger tighten the wing nuts.

• Run the wires from both sensors to the opener. Use insulated staples to secure wire to wall and ceiling.

• Strip 7/16" (11 mm) of insulation from each set of wires. Separate white and white/black wires sufficiently to

connect to the opener quick-connect terminals. Twist like colored wires together. Insert wires into quick-connect holes: white to white and white/black to

grey (Figure 6).

ALIGNING THE SAFETY REVERSING SENSORS

• Plug in the opener. The indicator lights in both the sending and receiving eyes will glow steadily if wiring

connections and alignment are correct.

The sending eye amber indicator light will glow regardless of alignment or obstruction. If the green indicator light in

the receiving eye is off, dim, or flickering (and the invisible light beam path is not obstructed), alignment is required.

• Loosen the sending eye wing nut and readjust, aiming directly at the receiving eye. Lock in place.

• Loosen the receiving eye wing nut and adjust sensor until it receives the sender's beam. When the green indicator light glows steadily, tighten the wing nut.

TROUBLESHOOTING THE SAFETY REVERSING SENSORS

1. If the sending eye indicator light does not glow steadily after installation, check for:

• Electric power to the opener.

• A short in the white or white/black wires. These can occur at staples, or at opener connections.

• Incorrect wiring between sensors and opener.

• A broken wire.

2. If the sending eye indicator light glows steadily but the receiving eye indicator light doesn't:

• Check alignment.

• Check for an open wire to the receiving eye.

3. If the receiving eye indicator light is dim, realign either

sensor.

NOTE: When the invisible beam path is obstructed or misaligned while the door is closing, the door will reverse.

If the door is already open, it will not close. The opener

lights will blink 10 times. See page 20.

INSTALLATION STEP 1 1

Fasten the Door Bracket

Follow instructions which apply to your door type as illustrated below or on the following page.

A horizontal reinforcement brace should be long

enough to be secured to two vertical supports. A vertical reinforcement 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, two pieces of

angle iron are used to create a U-shaped support (Figure 1). The best solution is to check with your garage

door manufacturer for an opener installation door reinforcement kit.

NOTE: Many vertical brace installations provide for direct attachment of the clevis pin and door arm. In this case you

will not need the door bracket; proceed to Installation Step

12.

SECTIONAL DOORS

• Center the door bracket on the previously marked vertical centerline used for the header bracket

installation. Note correct UP placement, as stamped inside the bracket (Figure 2).

• Position the bracket on the face of the door within the following limits:

A) The top edge of the bracket 2"-4" (5-10 cm) 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.

Fiberglass,aluminum or lightweight steel garagedoors WILL REQUIREreinforcement BEFOREinstallation of door bracket.
