Step 8: Photoelectric Safety Sensor Installation
Select a mounting position no more than 5 inches above
the floor to center line of wall mounting bracket. The
sending and receiving units should be mounted inside
the door opening to minimize any interference by the
sun. However, the sensors should be mounted as close
to the door track or inside edge of the door as possible
to offer maximum entrapment protection. It
is very important that both wall brackets be
mounted at the same height for proper
alignment.
The brackets may be temporarily mounted
to the jamb with a 1" flat head nail (provided)
using the small hole above the slot. Using
two 5/16 x 1-1/2" lag screw (provided),
permanently mount the wall mounting
brackets to both door jambs. In some
installation it may be necessary to attach a
wooden spacer to the wall to achieve the
required clearance.

Step 16: Install Routine
During install routine, the door will move up and down twice. Always keep a moving door in sight and keep
people and objects away until it is completely closed. Pull the emergency disconnect handle to the manual door
operated position (lower position). Manually raise the door to the full upward position. Then manually lower
the door to the fully closed position. Make sure there are no obstructions in the path of the door. Also, pay
attention to the cable snubbers. The snubbers should allow free movement of the cables in and out of the drums.
Return the emergency disconnect handle to the motor operated position (upper position).
WARNING THE OPENER SHOULD ONLY BE DISCONNECTED WHILE THE DOOR IS IN
THE CLOSED (DOWN) POSITION. OTHERWISE, IN CASE OF WEAK OR BROKEN SPRING(S), THE
DOOR COULD FALL, CAUSING SEVERE OR FATAL INJURY.
HELPFUL HINTS: Manually move the door slowly upwards after pulling the manual emergency disconnect
handle. If there is interference between the top of the door and
the opener’s housing try repositioning the top roller bracket as
far up as possible. The top roller brackets are located on the
Garage Door top panel (closest to the ceiling). Loosen the nuts
from the slider bracket (if present). Then, remove the screws
holding the bracket to the door panel. Raise the top roller bracket
and re-attach. Re-align the top roller in the track by moving the
slider bracket until the door section meets the weather seal. Retighten nuts. Repeat for the other side.
CAUTION: To avoid the top panel from falling, complete
re-installation on one side before beginning the other.

NOTE: The door must be in its fully closed position and the disconnect handle must be in the motor operated
position (upper position) to initiate the install routine.
NOTE:Install routine will not run if infrared safety sensors are not aligned. (see Step 20 for IR sensor alignment.)
WARNING TO AVOID INJURY, NO ONE SHOULD CROSS THE PATH OF A MOVING DOOR!
HELPFUL HINTS:
Step 16 a: Install routine with standard upper limit
Press and hold the profile button for five (5) seconds. The opener will beep
twice, indicating the activation of the install routine. The door will now
move to the full open position and stop. Then, the door will close completely.
Next, the door will go through one more up/down cycle. Once this is
complete, the door limits are set and the installation is complete.
Step 16 b: Install routine with custom upper limit
Press and hold the profile button for five (5) seconds. The opener will beep
twice, indicating the activation of the install routine. When the door moves
to the desired height, press the up/ down button on the wall station. The
door will stop and then close completely. Next, the door will go through
one more up/down cycle. Once this is complete, the door limits are set and
the installation is complete.Alternately: After an install routine has been completed, the door can be disconnected
and manually moved to the desired upper limit. Reconnect door and initiate a new install routine from that
position.

Step 17: Detent Adjustment (if required)
IMPORTANT! - FOR SYSTEM SECURITY: The motor is designed to pivot down after the door closes
completely. If the motor does not pivot or pivots too soon, the detent may need to be adjusted in order for the
door lock feature to work properly. Proceed to next step: Detent adjustment.
IMPORTANT! Before making any detent pin
adjustments, check the door balance. Door should not
raise off the floor with spring tension alone, nor should
it free fall from any open position.
The amount of pressure the opener uses to pivot the
motor downward is preset at the factory via the detent
pin adjustment screw. Due to variations in door
installations, a detent pin adjustment may need to be
made with a flat head screwdriver in order for proper
pivoting of the motor.
DETENT PIN
A.) If the motor does not pivot down, or only pivots

MOTOR
down partially, the detent pin is set too hard. Using a
flat head screwdriver, turn the detent pin COUNTER
CLOCKWISE in 1/4 turn increments. Then operate the
door to confirm adjustment. If the motor does not pivot on door closing adjust detent pin again. Repeat procedure
until motor pivots to full down position when the door is completely closed.
B.) If the motor pivots down prematurely (before the door is completely closed) or if the motor is “slapping”
too aggressively against the top of the door, the detent pin is set too soft. Using a flat head screwdriver, turn the
detent pin CLOCKWISE in 1/4 turn increments. Then operate the door to confirm adjustment. If the motor
pivots to soon, adjust detent pin again. Repeat procedure until motor pivots to full down position when the
door is completely closed.
Step 18: Setting the Lock
The opener has built into it a means of locking the door
when in the fully closed position. The motor cover is
designed to act as an obstruction to the door while in
the down position. The lock is adjustable to allow for
proper interface with your door.
The lock ring and lock are assembled to the highest
position. Once the door and opener have been installed
and the opener has been programmed, the lock adjustor
needs to be adjusted. Unscrew the lock adjustor until it
is 1" from the top of the door. Once the lock is set at
desired position, screw the lock ring down to the lock
to prevent it from moving.
Disconnect opener and manually operate the door to
confirm door clears the lock. Reconnect opener and
cycle the door to make sure that the lock adjustor does
not hit the door during the cycle sequence. Adjust the
lock accordingly.

Step 19: Custom Settings
Custom pet position: Normal install routine sets the
pet open position to approximately eight inches above
the ground. The pet opening height may be changed to
open anywhere between 8" and 30" above the ground.
To change the automatic pet opening height use the
following procedure:
UP/DOWN
1. After completion of the normal install routine, with
the door in the closed position, place the disconnect
handle in the manual operated position.
Manually position the door to the desired pet opening
height (between 8" and 30" above ground) and return disconnect handle to the motor operated position.
2. Simultaneously depress the pet and up/down buttons on the wall station. The opener will beep once. The pet
button is now programmed to automatically open the door to this custom height.
NOTE: The opener will NOT accept programmed pet lock position if door is below 8" or higher than 30".
NOTE:Activation of the normal install routine will reset the pet position to the default eight inch target
height. For use of the pet button see Operation section.

PET BUTTON
Step 20: Photoeletric Safety Sensor Alignment
IMPORTANT! - This infrared safety sensor sends an invisible beam of light from the sending unit to the receiving
unit across the pathway of the door. The door opener will not operate until the safety sensor is connected to the
power unit and properly aligned. If the invisible beam of light is obstructed, an open door cannot be closed by the
transmitter or a momentary activation of the wall mounted push button. However, the door may be closed by
holding your finger on the wall push button (constant pressure) until the door travels to a fully closed position.
At this point you will be able to activate the opener; it will open, but will not close the door unless the sensors are
aligned. The safety sensors can be aligned by moving the sending and receiving units in or out (see Fig. 1)until the
alignment light on the receiving unit comes on. The 1/4-20 carriage bolt can be loosened to move the unit in or
out, as required. If you have difficulty aligning
beams, check that both brackets are mounted
at the same height and remount if necessary.
Additional minor adjustments can be made by
lightly bending the mounting brackets (see
Fig. 2).
WARNINGFAILURE TO
MAKE ADJUSTMENTS COULD RESULT
IN SEVERE OR FATAL INJURY.
Once the alignment light comes on, tighten all
bolts and mounting screws. Finish securing all
wire making sure not to break or open any of
the conductors. Loop and secure any extra
wire. Now, using the wall station’s up/down
button, activate the opener and check that it
will operate through full open and close cycles.

This Warranty gives you specific legal rights and you may have other rights, which may vary from state to state. However, some states do not allow limitation on how
long an implied warranty lasts or the exclusion or limitation of incidental or consequential damages so the above limitations or exclusions may not apply to you.
