Preparing your garage door  
WARNING  
Before you begin:  
To prevent possible SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH:  
• Disable locks.  
• ALWAYS call a trained door systems technician if  
garage door binds, sticks, or is out of balance. An  
unbalanced garage door may not reverse when  
required.  
• NEVER try to loosen, move or adjust garage door, door  
springs, cables, pulleys, brackets or their hardware, all  
of which are under EXTREME tension.  
• Disable ALL locks and remove ALL ropes connected to  
garage door BEFORE installing and operating garage  
door opener to avoid entanglement.  
• Remove any ropes connected to garage door.  
Complete the following test to make sure your  
garage door is balanced and is not sticking or  
binding:  
1. Lift the door about halfway as shown. Release  
the door. If balanced, it should stay in place,  
supported entirely by its springs.  
2. Raise and lower the door to see if there is any  
binding or sticking.  
If your door binds, sticks, or is out of balance, call a  
trained door systems technician.  
CAUTION  
To prevent damage to garage door and opener:  
• ALWAYS disable locks BEFORE installing and operating  
the opener.  
• ONLY operate garage door opener at 120V, 60 Hz to  
avoid malfunction and damage.

INSTALLATION STEP 4  
WARNING  
®
Install The Protector System  
• Be sure power is not connected to the garage door  
opener BEFORE installing the safety reversing sensor.  
The safety reversing sensor must be connected  
and aligned correctly before the garage door  
opener will move in the down direction.  
• To prevent SERIOUS INJURY or DEATH from a closing  
garage door:  
– Correctly connect and align the safety reversing  
sensor. This required safety device MUST NOT be  
disabled.  
IMPORTANT INFORMATION ABOUT  
THE SAFETY REVERSING SENSOR  
– Install the safety reversing sensor so beam is NO  
HIGHER than 6" (15 cm) above garage floor.  
When properly connected and aligned, the sensor  
will detect an obstacle in the path of its electronic  
beam. The sending eye (with an amber indicator  
light) transmits an invisible light beam to the  
receiving eye (with a green indicator light). If an  
obstruction breaks the light beam while the door is  
closing, the door will stop and reverse to full open  
position, and the opener lights will flash 10 times.  
If it is necessary to mount the units on the wall, the  
brackets must be securely fastened to a solid surface  
such as the wall framing. Extension brackets (see  
accessories) are available if needed. If installing in  
masonry construction, add a piece of wood at each  
location to avoid drilling extra holes in masonry if  
repositioning is necessary.  
The units must be installed inside the garage so that  
the sending and receiving eyes face each other  
across the door, no more than 6" (15 cm) above the  
floor. Either can be installed on the left or right of the  
door as long as the sun never shines directly into the  
receiving eye lens.  
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  
beam while the door is closing.  
The mounting brackets are designed to clip onto the  
track of sectional garage doors without additional  
hardware.

INSTALLATION STEP 7  
WARNING  
Install the Door Control  
To prevent possible SERIOUS INJURY or DEATH from  
electrocution:  
Locate door control within sight of the door at a minimum  
height of 5 feet (1.5 m) where small children cannot reach,  
and away from moving parts of the door and door  
hardware. The installation surface must be smooth and flat.  
If installing into drywall (Figure 1), drill 5/32" holes and use  
anchors provided. For pre-wired installations (as in new  
home construction), it may be mounted to a single gang  
box (Figure 2). NOTE: After installation, a green indicator  
light behind the cover will indicate proper connection. If not  
lit, the Lock and Light features will not function (reverse  
wires to correct).  
• Be sure power is not connected BEFORE installing door  
control.  
• Connect ONLY to 24 VOLT low voltage wires.  
To prevent possible SERIOUS INJURY or DEATH from a  
closing garage door:  
• Install door control within sight of garage door, out of  
reach of children at a minimum height of 5 feet (1.5 m),  
and away from all moving parts of door.  
• NEVER permit children to operate or play with door  
control push buttons or remote control transmitters.  
• Activate door ONLY when it can be seen clearly, is  
properly adjusted, and there are no obstructions to door  
travel.  
• ALWAYS keep garage door in sight until completely  
closed. NEVER permit anyone to cross path of closing  
garage door.

WARNING  
To prevent possible SERIOUS INJURY or DEATH from a  
falling garage door:  
• If possible, use emergency release handle to disengage  
trolley ONLY when garage door is CLOSED. Weak or  
broken springs or unbalanced door could result in an  
open door falling rapidly and/or unexpectedly.  
• NEVER use emergency release handle unless garage  
doorway is clear of persons and obstructions.  
• Thread one end of the rope through the hole in the  
top of the red handle so “NOTICE” reads right side  
up as shown. Secure with an overhand knot at  
least 1" (2.5 cm) from the end of the rope to  
prevent slipping.  
• Thread the other end of the rope through the hole  
in the release arm of the outer trolley.  
• NEVER use handle to pull door open or closed. If rope  
knot becomes untied, you could fall.  
• Adjust rope length so the handle is 6 feet (1.83 m)  
above the floor. Secure with an overhand knot.  
NOTE: If it is necessary to cut the rope, heat seal  
the cut end with a match or lighter to prevent  
unraveling.

INSTALLATION STEP 10  
WARNING  
Electrical Requirements  
To prevent possible SERIOUS INJURY or DEATH from  
electrocution or fire:  
To avoid installation difficulties, do not run the  
opener at this time.  
• Be sure power is not connected to the opener, and  
disconnect power to circuit BEFORE removing cover to  
establish permanent wiring connection.  
• Garage door installation and wiring MUST be in  
compliance with all local electrical and building codes.  
• NEVER use an extension cord, 2-wire adapter, or  
change plug in any way to make it fit outlet. Be sure  
the opener is grounded.  
To reduce the risk of electric shock, your garage door  
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 electrician to install the  
proper outlet.

• Reinstall the cover.  
To avoid installation difficulties, do not run the  
opener until Step 11 below.  
TROUBLESHOOTING THE SAFETY SENSORS  
INSTALLATION STEP 11  
Complete Safety Reversing Sensor  
Installation  
1. If the sending eye indicator light does not glow  
steadily after installation, check for:  
• Electric power to the opener.  
• A short in the white or white/black wires. These  
can occur at staples, or at opener connections.  
ALIGNING THE SAFETY SENSORS  
Plug in the opener. The indicator lights in both the  
sending and receiving eyes will glow steadily if  
wiring connections and alignment are correct.  
• Incorrect wiring between sensors and opener.  
• A broken wire.  
2. If the sending eye indicator light glows steadily but  
the receiving eye indicator light doesn’t:  
The sending eye amber indicator light will glow  
regardless of alignment or obstruction. If the green  
indicator light in the receiving eye is off, dim, or  
flickering (and the invisible light beam path is not  
obstructed), alignment is required.  
• Check alignment.  
• Check for an open wire to the receiving eye.  
3. If the receiving eye indicator light is dim, realign  
either sensor.  
• Loosen the sending eye wing nut and readjust,  
aiming directly at the receiving eye. Lock in place.  
NOTE: When the invisible beam path is obstructed  
or misaligned while the door is closing, the door will  
reverse. If the door is already open, it will not close.  
The opener lights will blink 10 times. (If bulbs are not  
installed, 10 clicks can be heard.) See page 11.  
• Loosen the receiving eye wing nut and adjust the  
sensor vertically and/or horizontally until it  
receives the sender’s beam. When the green  
indicator light glows steadily, tighten the wing nut.

2. Adjustment procedures, Figure 5:  
• On one-piece doors, before connecting the door  
arm to the trolley, the travel limits must be  
adjusted. Limit adjustment screws are located on  
the left side panel as shown on page 23. Follow  
adjustment procedures below.  
– Manually close the door and lift the door arm to  
the trolley. The arm should touch the trolley just  
ahead of the door arm connector hole. Refer to  
the fully closed trolley/door arm positions in the  
illustration. If the arm is behind the connector  
hole, adjust the limit further. One full turn equals  
2" (5 cm) of trolley travel.  
• Open door adjustment: decrease UP  
travel limit  
– Turn the UP limit adjustment screw  
counter-clockwise 4 turns.  
3. Connect the door arm to the trolley:  
• Close the door and join the curved arm to the  
connector hole in the trolley with the remaining  
clevis pin. It may be necessary to lift the door  
slightly to make the connection.  
– Press the Door Control push button. The trolley  
will travel to the fully open position.  
– Manually raise the door to the open position  
(parallel to the floor), and lift the door arm to the  
trolley. The arm should touch the trolley just in  
back of the door arm connector hole. Refer to  
the fully open trolley/door arm positions in the  
illustration. If the arm does not extend far  
enough, adjust the limit further. One full turn  
equals 2" (5 cm) of trolley travel.  
• Secure with a ring fastener.  
• Run the opener through a complete travel cycle. If  
the door has a slight “backward” slant in full open  
position as shown in the illustration, decrease the  
UP limit until the door is parallel to the floor.  
NOTE: When setting the up limit on the following  
page, the door should not have a “backward” slant  
when fully open as illustrated below. A slight  
backward slant will cause unnecessary bucking  
and/or jerking operation as the door is being opened  
or closed from the fully open position.  
• Closed door adjustment: decrease DOWN  
travel limit

ADJUSTMENT STEP 1  
WARNING  
Without a properly installed safety reversal system,  
persons (particularly small children) could be  
SERIOUSLY INJURED or KILLED by a closing garage  
door.  
• Incorrect adjustment of garage door travel limits will  
interfere with proper operation of safety reversal  
system.  
Adjust the UP and DOWN Travel  
Limits  
Limit adjustment settings regulate the points at which  
the door will stop when moving up or down.  
To operate the opener, press the Door Control push  
bar. Run the opener through a complete travel cycle.  
• Does the door open and close completely?  
• If one control (force or travel limits) is adjusted, the  
other control may also need adjustment.  
• After ANY adjustments are made, the safety reversal  
system MUST be tested. Door MUST reverse on  
contact with 1-1/2" (3.8 cm) high object (or 2x4 laid  
flat) on floor.  
• Does the door stay closed and not reverse  
unintentionally when fully closed?  
If your door passes both of these tests, no limit  
adjustments are necessary unless the reversing test  
fails (Adjustment Step 3, page 25).  
Adjustment procedures are outlined below. Read the  
procedures carefully before proceeding to  
Adjustment Step 2. Use a screwdriver to make limit  
adjustments. Run the opener through a complete  
travel cycle after each adjustment.  
CAUTION  
To prevent damage to vehicles, be sure fully open door  
provides adequate clearance.  
NOTE: Repeated operation of the opener during  
adjustment procedures may cause the motor to  
overheat and shut off. Simply wait 15 minutes and  
try again.  
NOTE: If anything interferes with the door’s upward  
travel, it will stop. If anything interferes with the  
door’s downward travel (including binding or  
unbalanced doors), it will reverse.

HOW AND WHEN TO ADJUST THE LIMITS  
Limit  
Adjustment  
Screws  
• If the door does not open completely but opens  
at least 5 feet (1.5 m):  
Left Side Panel  
Increase up travel. Turn the UP limit adjustment  
screw clockwise. One turn equals 2" (5 cm) of  
travel.  
NOTE: To prevent the trolley from hitting the cover  
protection bolt, keep a minimum distance of 2-4"  
(5-10 m) between the trolley and the bolt.  
Adjust UP Travel  
+
• If door does not open at least 5 feet (1.5 m):  
Adjust DOWN Travel  
+
Adjust the UP (open) force as explained in  
Adjustment Step 2.  
• If the door reverses when closing and there is  
no visible interference to travel cycle:  
• If the door does not close completely:  
Increase down travel. Turn the down limit  
adjustment screw counterclockwise. One turn  
equals 2" (5 cm) of travel.  
If the opener lights are flashing, the Safety  
Reversing Sensors are either not installed,  
misaligned, or obstructed. See Troubleshooting,  
page 18.  
If door still won’t close completely and the trolley  
bumps into the pulley bracket (page 4), try  
lengthening the door arm (page 21) and  
decreasing the down limit.  
Test the door for binding: Pull the emergency  
release handle. Manually open and close the door.  
If the door is binding or unbalanced, call for a  
trained door systems technician. If the door is  
balanced and not binding, adjust the DOWN  
(close) force. See Adjustment Step 2.  
• If the opener reverses in fully closed position:  
Decrease down travel. Turn the down limit  
adjustment screw clockwise. One turn equals 2"  
(5 cm) of travel.

ADJUSTMENT STEP 2  
WARNING  
Adjust the Force  
Without a properly installed safety reversal system,  
persons (particularly small children) could be  
SERIOUSLY INJURED or KILLED by a closing garage  
door.  
Force adjustment controls are located on the back  
panel of the motor unit. Force adjustment settings  
regulate the amount of power required to open and  
close the door.  
• Too much force on garage door will interfere with  
proper operation of safety reversal system.  
• NEVER increase force beyond minimum amount  
required to close garage door.  
• NEVER use force adjustments to compensate for a  
binding or sticking garage door.  
• If one control (force or travel limits) is adjusted, the  
other control may also need adjustment.  
• After ANY adjustments are made, the safety reversal  
system MUST be tested. Door MUST reverse on  
contact with 1-1/2" (3.8 cm) high object (or 2x4 laid  
flat) on floor.  
If the forces are set too light, door travel may be  
interrupted by nuisance reversals in the down  
direction and stops in the up direction. Weather  
conditions can affect the door movement, so  
occasional adjustment may be needed.  
The maximum force adjustment range is about  
3/4 of a complete turn. Do not force controls  
beyond that point. Turn force adjustment controls  
with a screwdriver.  
NOTE: If anything interferes with the door’s upward  
travel, it will stop. If anything interferes with the  
door’s downward travel (including binding or  
unbalanced doors), it will reverse.  
HOW AND WHEN TO ADJUST THE FORCES

1. Test the DOWN (close) force  
Back Panel  
• Grasp the door bottom when the door is about  
halfway through DOWN (close) travel. The door  
should reverse. Reversal halfway through down  
travel does not guarantee reversal on a 1-1/2"  
(3.8 cm) obstruction. See Adjustment Step 3,  
page 25.

If the door is hard to hold or doesn’t reverse,  
DECREASE the DOWN (close) force by turning  
the control counterclockwise. Make small  
adjustments until the door reverses normally. After  
each adjustment, run the opener through a  
complete cycle.  
• If the door reverses during the down (close)  
cycle and the opener lights aren’t flashing,  
INCREASE DOWN (close) force by turning the  
control clockwise. Make small adjustments until the  
door completes a close cycle. After each

2. Test the UP (open) force  
• Grasp the door bottom when the door is about  
halfway through UP (open) travel. The door should  
stop. If the door is hard to hold or doesn’t stop,  
DECREASE UP (open) force by turning the control  
counterclockwise. Make small adjustments until the  
door stops easily and opens fully. After each  
adjustment, run the opener through a complete  
travel cycle.  
• If the door doesn’t open at least 5 feet (1.5 m),  
INCREASE UP (open) force by turning the control  
clockwise. Make small adjustments until door  
opens completely. Readjust the UP limit if  
necessary. After each adjustment, run the opener  
through a complete travel cycle.

ADJUSTMENT STEP 3  
WARNING  
Test the Safety Reversal System  
Without a properly installed safety reversal system,  
persons (particularly small children) could be  
SERIOUSLY INJURED or KILLED by a closing garage  
door.  
TEST  
• With the door fully open, place a 1-1/2" (3.8 cm)  
board (or a 2x4 laid flat) on the floor, centered  
under the garage door.  
• Safety reversal system MUST be tested every month.  
• If one control (force or travel limits) is adjusted, the  
other control may also need adjustment.  
• After ANY adjustments are made, the safety reversal  
system MUST be tested. Door MUST reverse on  
contact with 1-1/2" (3.8 cm) high object (or 2x4 laid  
flat) on the floor.  
• Operate the door in the down direction. The door  
must reverse on striking the obstruction.  
ADJUST  
• If the door stops on the obstruction, it is not  
traveling far enough in the down direction.  
Increase the DOWN limit by turning the DOWN  
limit adjustment screw counterclockwise 1/4 turn.  
NOTE: On a sectional door, make sure limit  
adjustments do not force the door arm beyond a  
straight up and down position. See the illustration  
on page 21.  
• Repeat the test.  
• When the door reverses on the 1-1/2" (3.8 cm)  
board, remove the obstruction and run the opener  
through 3 or 4 complete travel cycles to test  
adjustment.  
IMPORTANT SAFETY CHECK:  
Test the Safety Reverse System after:  
• Each adjustment of door arm length, limits, or  
force controls.  
• Any repair to or adjustment of the garage door  
(including springs and hardware).  
1-1/2" (3.8 cm) board  
(or a 2x4 laid flat)  
• Any repair to or buckling of the garage floor.  
• Any repair to or adjustment of the opener.  
WARNING  
Without a properly installed safety reversing sensor,  
persons (particularly small children) could be  
SERIOUSLY INJURED or KILLED by a closing garage  
door.  
ADJUSTMENT STEP 4  
®
Test the Protector System  
• Press the remote control push button to open the  
door.  
• Place the opener carton in the path of the door.  
• Press the remote control push button to close the  
door. The door will not move more than an inch  
(2.5 cm), and the opener lights will flash.  
The garage door opener will not close from a remote  
if the indicator light in either sensor is off (alerting  
you to the fact that the sensor is misaligned or  
obstructed).  
If the opener closes the door when the safety  
reversing sensor is obstructed (and the sensors  
are no more than 6" (15 cm) above the floor), call  
for a trained door systems technician.

warranty, will be repaired or replaced (at Seller's sole option) at no cost to you and returned pre-paid. Defective parts will be repaired or replaced with  
new or factory-rebuilt parts at Seller's sole option.  
ALL IMPLIED WARRANTIES FOR THE PRODUCT, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO ANY IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND

[EXCEPT THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES WITH RESPECT TO THE MOTOR, WHICH ARE LIMITED IN DURATION TO THE LIFETIME WARRANTY  
PERIOD FOR THE MOTOR (MODEL 3220) OR 2 YEARS (MODEL 3110)], AND NO IMPLIED WARRANTIES WILL EXIST OR APPLY AFTER SUCH  
PERIOD. Some States do not allow limitations on how long an implied warranty lasts, so the above limitation may not apply to you. THIS  
LIMITED WARRANTY DOES NOT COVER NON-DEFECT DAMAGE, DAMAGE CAUSED BY IMPROPER INSTALLATION, OPERATION OR CARE  
(INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO ABUSE, MISUSE, FAILURE TO PROVIDE REASONABLE AND NECESSARY MAINTENANCE,  
UNAUTHORIZED REPAIRS OR ANY ALTERATIONS TO THIS PRODUCT), LABOR CHARGES FOR REINSTALLING A REPAIRED OR REPLACED
