Planning

Identify the type and height of your garagedoor. Surveyyour

garageareato see if any of the conditions below apply to your

installation. Additional materials may be required.You mayfind it

helpful to referbackto this pageand the accompanying

illustrations asyou proceedwith the installation of your opener.

Dependingon your requirements,there are several installation

steps which may call for materialsor hardware not 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 in your

garage? If so, a support bracketand additionalfastening

hardware may be required.

• Installation Step 12- Dependingupon garageconstruction,

extension brackets or wood blocks may be neededto install

sensors.

• Installation Step 12 - 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.See

Accessoriespage.

Lookat the garage door where it meetsthe floor. Any gap

betweenthe floor and the bottom of the door must not exceed

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

work properly. SeeAdjustment Step 2. Floor or door should be

repaired.

SECTIONALDOORINSTALLATION

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

If so, horizontal and vertical reinforcement is required

(Installation Step 8).

• Theopener should be installed abovethe center of the door.

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

of the headerbracket, it may be installed within 4 feet (1.22 m)

to the left or right of the door center. See Installation Steps 1

and 8.

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

extension kits listed on Accessories page.

SECTIONALDOORINSTALLATION

Horizontal and vertical reinforcement is

needed for lightweight garage doors

(fiberglass, steel, aluminum, door with

glass panels, etc.). See page 18 for details.

ONE-PIECEDOORINSTALLATIONS

• Generally,a one-piecedoor does not require reinforcement. If

your door is lightweight, refer to the information relatingto

sectional doors in Installation Step 8.

• Dependingon your door's construction, you may need

additional mounting hardwarefor the door bracket (Step8).

Without a properly working safety reversalsystem, persons

(particularly small children) could be SERIOUSLYINJUREDor

KILLEDby a closing garagedoor.

• Thegap betweenthe bottom of the garage door andthe floor

MUSTNOTexceed1/4" (6 mm). Otherwise,the safety

INSTALLATION STEP 1

Determinethe HeaderBracketLocation

To prevent possible SERIOUSINJURYor DEATH:

• HeaderbracketMUST be RIGIDLYfastenedto structural

support on headerwall or ceiling, otherwise garagedoor

might NOTreversewhen required. DONOTinstall header

bracket overdrywall.

• Concreteanchors MUST be usedif mounting headerbracket

or 2x4 into masonry.

• NEVERtry to loosen, move or adjust garagedoor, springs,

cables, pulleys,brackets, or their hardware,ALL of which are

under EXTREMEtension.

• ALWAYScall a trained door systems technician if garage

door binds, sticks, or is out of balance.An unbalanced

garagedoor might NOTreversewhen required.

Installation procedures vary according to garagedoor types.

Follow the instructions which applyto your door.

1. Closethe door and mark the insidevertical centerline of the

garagedoor.

2. Extendthe lineonto the headerwall abovethe door.

Youcanfastenthe headerbracketwithin 4 feet (1.22 m) of

the left or rightof the doorcenter onlyif a torsionspringor

center bearingplate is in theway; or youcanattach itto 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 lagscrews (not provided) to securelyfasten the

2x4 to structural supports as shown hereand on page13.

3. Openyour door to the highest point of travel asshown. Draw

an intersectinghorizontal lineon 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 the total number of inches exceedstheheight available

in your garage,use themaximum height possible, or referto
