Planning

Identify the type and height of your garagedoor. Surveyyour

garage areato see if any of the conditions below apply to your

installation. Additional materials may be required.You may find it

helpful to refer backto this page andthe accompanying

illustrations asyou proceedwith the installation of your opener.

Dependingon your requirements,there are several installation

steps which may call for materialsor hardwarenot included in the

carton.

• Installation Step 1 - Lookat the wall or ceiling abovethe

garagedoor. Theheader bracketmust be securelyfastenedto

structural supports.

• Installation Step 5 - Doyou havea finished ceiling inyour

garage? If so, a support bracketand additional fastening

hardware may be required.

• Installation Step 11 - Dependingupon garageconstruction,

extension brackets or wood blocks may be neededto install

sensors.

• Installation Step 11 - Alternate floor mounting of the safety

reversingsensor will require hardwarenot provided.

Doyou havean access door in addition to the garagedoor?

If not, Model 139.53702 EmergencyKeyReleaseis required.

SeeAccessoriespage.

Lookat the garage door where it meetsthe floor. Any gap

betweenthe floor andthe bottom of the door must not exceed

1/4" (6 mm). Otherwise,the safety reversalsystem may not

work properly. SeeAdjustment Step 3. Floor or door should be

repaired.

SECTIONALDOORINSTALLATIONS

• Doyou havea steel, aluminum, fiberglass or glass panel door?

If so, horizontal and vertical reinforcement is required

(Installation Step12).

• Theopener should be installed abovethe center of the door.

If there is a torsion spring or center bearing platein the way of

the header bracket, it may be installed within 4 feet (1.22 m)

to the leftor right of the door center. See Installation

Steps 1 and 12.

• If your door is morethan 7 feet (2.13 m) high, seerail

INSTALLATION STEP 1

Determinethe HeaderBracketLocation

To prevent possible SERIOUSINJURYor DEATH:

• HeaderbracketMUSTbe RIGIDLYfastenedto structural

support on headerwall or ceiling, otherwise garagedoor

might NOTreversewhen required. DONOTinstall header

bracket over drywall.

• Concreteanchors MUST be usedif mounting headerbracket

or 2x4 into masonry.

center bearingplate is in theway; or youcan attachitto the

ceiling (see page 13) whenclearanceis minimal. (It may be

mountedon thewall upsidedownif necessary,to gain

approximately1/2" (1 cm).)

If you needto install the headerbracket on a 2x4 (on wall or

ceiling), use lag screws (not provided) to securelyfasten the

2x4 to structural supports as shown hereand on page13.

3. Openyour door to the highestpoint of travel asshown. Draw

an intersecting horizontal line on the headerwall abovethe high

point:

• 2"(5 cm) abovethe high point for sectional door and

one-piecedoor with track.

• 8"(20 cm) abovethe high point for one-piecedoor without

track.

This heightwill provide travel clearancefor the top edgeof the

door.

NOTE:If thetotal number of inches exceedsthe height available

moving parts of door and door hardware. If installing into drywall,

drill 5/32" holes andusethe anchors provided. Forpre-wired

installations (as in new home construction), it may be mounted to

a single gang box (Figure1).

1. Strip 7/16" (11 mm) of insulation from one end of bell wire and

connect to the two screwterminals on the back of the door

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

(Figure 2).

2. Removecover by gently prying at slot in top of the cover with a

small flat head screwdriver (Figure3). Fastenwith 6ABxl"

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 the bottom of the door control on the screw head

and slide down to secure. Adjust screwfor snugfit.

• 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 staplesto secure

wire inseveral places. Donot piercewire 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 (Figure4).

5. Positionthe antennawire as shown.

6. Usetacks or staplesto permanently attachentrapment warning

label to wall nearthe door control, and manual release/safety

reversetest labelin a prominent location on inside of garage

door.

NOTE:DONOTconnectpower and operate openerat this time.

Thetrolley will travel to the furl open position but will not return

to the closeposition until thesensor beamis connectedand

a grounding type plug with a third grounding pin. This plug will

only fit into agrounding type outlet. If the plug doesn't fit into the

outlet you have,contact a qualified electricianto install the proper

outlet.

To prevent possible SERIOUSINJURYor DEATHfrom

electrocution or fire:

• DisconnectALL electric and battery power BEFORE

performing ANY serviceor maintenance.

• Garagedoor installation and wiring MUSTbe in compliance

with ALL local electrical and building codes.

• NEVERusean extension cord, 2-wire adapter,or change

plug in ANYway to makeit fit outlet. Besure the opener is

grounded.

PERMANENTWIRING

CONNECTION

If permanent wiring isrequired byyourlocal code,refer to the

followingprocedure.

To makea permanent connection through the 7/8" hole in the top

of the motor unit:

1. Removethe motor unit cover screws and set the cover aside.

2. Removethe attached3-prong cord.

3. Connectthe 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 openermustbe grounded.

4. Reinstallthe cover.

To avoidinstallationdifficulties,do notrunthe openerat this

IMPORTANTINFORMATIONABOUTTHESAFETYREVERSING

SENSOR

When properly connectedand aligned, the sensor will detectan

obstacle in the pathof its electronic beam. Thesending eye

(with an amber indicator light) transmits aninvisible light beam

to the receivingeye(with a green indicator light). If an obstruction

breaks the light beamwhile the door is closing, the door will stop

and reverseto full open position, and the opener lights will flash

10 times.

The units must be installed inside the garageso that the sending

and receivingeyes face eachother across the door, no morethan

6" (15 cm) abovethefloor. Either can be installed on the left or

right of the door aslong as the sun never shines directly into the

receiving eyelens.

The mounting brackets are designedto clip onto the track of

sectional garagedoors without additional hardware.

Besure power is NOTconnectedto the garagedoor opener

BEFOREinstalling the safety reversing sensor.

To prevent SERIOUSINJURYor DEATHfrom a closing garage

door:

• Correctly connect and align the safety reversingsensor.

This required safety device MUSTNOTbe disabled.

• Install the safety reversing sensor so beamis NOHIGHER

than 6" (15cm) abovegaragefloor.

If it is necessaryto mount the units on the wall, the brackets must

be securely fastenedto a solid surface such as the wall framing.

Extensionbrackets (seeaccessories) are availableif needed.

If installing in masonry construction, add a pieceof wood at each

location to avoid drilling extra holesin 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 beamwhile the door is closing.
