time.

To reducethe risk of electric shock, your garagedoor 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 electricianto install the proper

outlet.

RIGH_

To prevent 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 local electrical and building codes.

• NEVERusean extension cord, 2-wire adapteror change

plug in ANYway to make it fit outlet. Besure the opener is

grounded.

PERMANENT WIRING

CONNECTION

IMPORTANTINFORMATIONABOUTTHESAFETYREVERSING

SENSOR

When properly connectedand aligned, the sensor will detect an

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

an amber indicator light) transmits an invisible light beamto the

receiving eye (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.

Theunits 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 as long as the sun nevershines directly into the

receiving eye lens.

Themounting brackets are designedto clip onto the track of

sectional garagedoors without additional hardware.

Be sure power is not connectedto 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 deviceMUST NOTbe disabled.

• Install the safety reversing sensor so beamis NOHIGHER

than 6"(15 cm) above garagefloor.

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

must be securelyfastenedto a solid surface such asthe wall

framing. Extensionbrackets (seeAccessories) are availableif

needed.If installing in masonry construction, add a pieceof wood

at eachlocation to avoid drilling extra holesin masonry if

repositioning is necessary.

Theinvisible light beam path must be unobstructed. No part of

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

hardware) may interrupt the beamwhile the door is closing.
