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.  
• 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:  
• 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.  
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.

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.  
• Install the safety reversing sensor so beam is NO HIGHER  
than 6" (15 cm) above garage floor.  
IMPORTANT INFORMATION ABOUT THE SAFETY  
REVERSING SENSOR  
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.

and align the brackets so the sensors will face each  
other across the garage door, with the beam no higher  
than 6" (15 cm) above the floor. They may be installed in  
one of three ways, as follows:

• 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)

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.

TROUBLESHOOTING THE SAFETY REVERSING  
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.  
ALIGNING THE SAFETY REVERSING SENSORS  
• A short in the white or white/black wires. These can  
occur at staples, or at opener connections.  
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.  
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.  
2. If the sending eye indicator light glows steadily but the  
receiving eye indicator light doesn’t:  
• 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.

• 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:  
– Press the Door Control push button. The trolley will  
travel to the fully open position.  
• 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.  
– 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  
– Turn the DOWN limit adjustment screw clockwise  
4 complete turns.

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.  
• If one control (force or travel limits) is adjusted, the other  
control may also need adjustment.  
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?  
• Does the door stay closed and not reverse  
unintentionally when fully closed?  
• 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 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. 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.  
• If door does not open at least 5 feet (1.5 m):  
Adjust the UP (open) force as explained in Adjustment  
Step 2.  
ADJUSTMENT LABEL  
• 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  
Without a properly installed safety reversal system, persons  
(particularly small children) could be SERIOUSLY INJURED  
or KILLED by a closing garage door.  
• To 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.  
Adjust the Force  
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.  
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  
Force  
Adjustment  
Controls  
1. Test the DOWN (close) force  
• 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)  
Back Panel  
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.  
KG  
KG  
• 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 adjustment, run the opener  
through a complete travel cycle. Do not increase the  
force beyond the minimum amount required to close  
the door.  
Antenna  
2. Test the UP (open) force  
• Grasp the door bottom when the door is about halfway

ADJUSTMENT STEP 3  
WARNING  
Without a properly installed safety reversal system, persons  
(particularly small children) could be SERIOUSLY INJURED  
or KILLED by a closing garage door.  
Test the Safety Reversal System  
TEST  
• Safety reversal system MUST be tested every month.  
• If one control (force or travel limits) is adjusted, the other  
control may also need adjustment.  
• 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.  
• 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.
