Identify the type and height of your garagedoor. Surveyyour

garageareato seeif any of the conditions below applyto your

installation. Additional materials may be required.You mayfind it

helpfulto refer backto this pageand the accompanying

illustrations asyou proceedwith the installation ofyour opener.

Dependingon your requirements, there areseveralinstallation

steps which maycallfor materialsor hardwarenot includedin the

carton.

• Installation Step 1- Lookat the wall or ceiling abovethe garage

door. Theheaderbracketmust be securelyfastenedto

structural supports.

• Installation Step 5- Doyou haveafinished ceiling in your

garage? If so,asupport bracketand additional fastening

hardwaremay be required.

• Installation Step 10- Dependingupon garageconstruction,

extension bracketsor wood blocks may be neededto install

sensors.

• Installation Step 10 - Alternate floor mounting of the safety

reversing sensorwill require hardwarenot provided.

Doyou havean accessdoor in addition to the garagedoor?

If not, Model 53702 EmergencyKeyReleaseis required.See

Accessoriespage.

Look atthe garagedoor where it meetsthe floor. Any gap

betweenthefloor andthe bottom of the door must not exceed

1/4" (6 mm). Otherwise,the safety reversalsystem maynot

work properly.SeeAdjustment Step3. Floor or door should be

repaired.

SECTIONALDOORINSTALLATIONS

• Doyou havea steel,aluminum, fiberglass or glass paneldoor?

If so,horizontal andvertical reinforcement is required

(Installation Step11).

• Theopenershould be installed abovethe centerof the door.

If there isa torsion spring or centerbearingplatein theway of

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

the left or right of the door center.SeeInstallation Steps 1

and 11.

• If your door is more than 7 feet (2.13 m) high,see rail extension

kits listed onAccessoriespage.

SECTIONALDOORINSTALLATION

Horizontal and vertical reinforcement is

neededfor lightweight garage doors

(fiberglass, steel, aluminum, door with

glass panels, etc.). See page 23 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 Step11.

• Dependingon your door's construction, you may need

additional mounting hardwarefor the door bracket(Step 11).

Without a properly working safety reversalsystem, persons

(particularly small children) could be SERIOUSLYINJUREDor

KILLEDby a closing garagedoor.

• Thegap betweenthe bottom of the garagedoor and thefloor

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

system may NOTwork properly.

• Thefloor or the garagedoor MUSTbe repairedto eliminate

the gap.

grounding typeplug with athird grounding pin. Thisplug will only

fit into a grounding type outlet. If the plug doesn't fit into the outlet

you have,contact aqualifiedelectricianto install the proper outlet.

If permanent wiring isrequiredbyyourlocalcode,refer tothe

followingprocedure.

Tomake a permanent connectionthrough the 7/8" hole in the top

of the motor unit:

• Removethe motor unit coverscrews andset the cover aside.

• Removethe attached3-prong cord.

• Connectthe black (line) wire to the screwon the brassterminal;

thewhite (neutral) wire to the screw on the silver terminal; and

IMPORTANTINFORMATIONABOUTTHESAFETYREVERSING

SENSOR

Whenproperly connected andaligned, thesensor will detectan

obstacle in the pathof its electronic beam.Thesending eye(with

an amber indicator light) transmits an invisible light beamto the

receiving eye(with agreenindicator light). If an obstruction

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

and reverseto full open position, andthe openerlights will flash

10 times.

Theunits must be installed insidethe garageso that the sending

and receivingeyesface eachother acrossthe door, no more than

6"(15 cm) abovethe floor. Eithercan be installed on the left or

right of the door aslong asthe sun nevershines directly into the

receiving eyelens.

Themounting brackets are designedto clip ontothe track of

sectionalgarage doors without additional hardware.

Besure power is NOTconnectedto the garagedoor opener

BEFOREinstalling the safety reversingsensor.

To preventSERIOUSINJURYor DEATHfrom a closing garage

door:

• Correctly connect and align the safety reversing sensor.This

requiredsafety device MUSTNOTbe disabled.

• Installthe safety reversingsensor so beam is NOHIGHER

than 6"(15 cm) abovegaragefloor.

If it is necessaryto mount the units onthe wall,the bracketsmust

be securelyfastenedto a solid surfacesuch asthe wall framing.

Extensionbrackets (seeAccessories) are availableif needed.If

installing in masonry construction, addapieceof wood ateach

location to avoiddrilling extra holes in masonry if repositioning is

necessary.

Theinvisible light beampathmust be unobstructed. No part of the

garagedoor (or door tracks, springs, hinges, rollers or other

hardware) may interrupt the beamwhile the door is closing.
