Preparing your garage door
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.
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 6
Install the Door Control
To prevent possible SERIOUS INJURY or DEATH from
electrocution:
• 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.
Locate door control within sight of door at a minimum
height of 5 feet (1.5 m) where small children cannot reach,
and away from moving parts of 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 or amber
indicator light behind the cover will indicate proper
connection. If not lit, the Lock and Light features will not
function (reverse wires to correct).
1. Strip 7/16" (11 mm) of insulation from one end of bell
wire and connect to the two screw terminals on back of
door control by color: white wire to WHT and white/red
wire to the RED (Figure 3).
2. Remove cover by gently prying at slot in the side of the
cover with a small flat head screwdriver (Figure 4).
Fasten with 6ABx1-1/4" self-tapping screws (drywall
installation) or 6-32x1" machine screws (into gang box)
as follows:

INSTALLATION STEP 8
Attach the Emergency Release Rope
and Handle
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. Ensure that the rope and handle clear
the tops of all vehicles to avoid entanglement. 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.

• 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,
The mounting brackets are designed to clip onto the track rollers or other hardware) may interrupt the beam while

INSTALLATION STEP 11
Fasten the Door Bracket
Fiberglass, aluminum or lightweight steel garage doors WILL
REQUIRE reinforcement BEFORE installation of door bracket.
Contact your door manufacturer for reinforcement kit.
Follow instructions which apply to your door type as
illustrated below or on the following page.
A horizontal reinforcement brace should be long
enough to be secured to two or three vertical
supports. A vertical reinforcement brace should cover
the height of the top panel.
Header
Bracket
Figure 1 shows one piece of angle iron as the horizontal
brace. For the vertical brace, 2 pieces of angle iron are
used to create a U-shaped support. The best solution is
to check with your garage door manufacturer for an
opener installation door reinforcement kit.
NOTE: Many door reinforcement kits provide for direct
attachment of the clevis pin and door arm. In this case
you will not need the door bracket; proceed to Step 12.

adjustment screws are located on the left side panel
as shown on page 23. Follow adjustment procedures
below.
Door
Arm
(Groove
facing out)
• Open door adjustment: decrease UP travel limit
- 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.
- Turn the UP limit adjustment screw counter-
clockwise 4 turns.
- 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.
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.
• Secure with a ring fastener.
• Closed door adjustment: decrease DOWN travel
limit
• 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.
- Turn the DOWN limit adjustment screw clockwise
4 complete turns.
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.
- Press the Door Control push button. The trolley will
travel to the fully closed position.

ADJUSTMENT STEP 1
Adjust the UP and DOWN Travel Limits
Without a properly installed safety reversal system, persons
(particularly small children) could be SERIOUSLY INJURED or
KILLED by a closing garage door.
Limit adjustment settings regulate the points at which the
door will stop when moving up or down.
• 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.
• After ANY adjustments are made, the safety reversal system
MUST be tested. Door MUST reverse on contact with 1-1/2"
high (3.8 cm) object (or 2x4 laid flat) on floor.
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?
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.
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.

Adjustment Label
Adjust the UP (open) force as explained in Adjustment
Step 2.
• If the door does not close completely:
• If the door reverses when closing and there is no
visible interference to travel cycle:
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
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.
• 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.
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.
• 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"
high (3.8 cm) object (or 2x4 laid flat) on floor.
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
Force
Adjustment
Controls
• 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 adjustment, run the opener
through a complete travel cycle. Do not increase the
force beyond the minimum amount required to close
the door.

ADJUSTMENT STEP 3
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.
• Operate the door in the down direction. The door must
reverse on striking the obstruction.
• After ANY adjustments are made, the safety reversal system
MUST be tested. Door MUST reverse on contact with 1-1/2"
high (3.8 cm) object (or 2x4 laid flat) on the floor.
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.
• If the unit continues to fail the Safety Reverse Test, call
for a trained door systems technician.
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.
ADJUSTMENT STEP 4
Test The Protector System
®
Without a properly installed safety reversing sensor, persons
(particularly small children) could be SERIOUSLY INJURED or
KILLED by a closing garage door.
• 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.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING
To reduce the risk of SEVERE INJURY or DEATH:
1. READ AND FOLLOW ALL WARNINGS AND INSTRUCTIONS.
9. If one control (force or travel limits) is adjusted, the other
control may also need adjustment.
2. ALWAYS keep remote controls out of reach of children.
NEVER permit children to operate or play with garage door
control push buttons or remote controls.
10. After ANY adjustments are made, the safety reversal system
MUST be tested.
3. ONLY activate garage door when it can be seen clearly, it is
properly adjusted, and there are no obstructions to door
travel.
4. ALWAYS keep garage door in sight until completely closed.
NO ONE SHOULD CROSS THE PATH OF THE MOVING DOOR.
11. Safety reversal system MUST be tested every month. Garage
door MUST reverse on contact with 1-1/2" (3.8 cm) high
object (or a 2x4 laid flat) on the floor. Failure to adjust the
garage door opener properly may cause SEVERE INJURY or
DEATH.
12. ALWAYS KEEP GARAGE DOOR PROPERLY BALANCED (see
page 3). An improperly balanced door may NOT reverse
when required and could result in SEVERE INJURY or
DEATH.
13. ALL repairs to cables, spring assemblies and other hardware,
ALL of which are under EXTREME tension, MUST be made
by a trained door systems technician.
5. NO ONE SHOULD GO UNDER A STOPPED, PARTIALLY OPEN

Using Your Garage Door Opener
Your Security✚® opener and hand-held remote control
have been factory-set to a matching code which changes
with each use, randomly accessing over 100 billion new
codes. Your opener will operate with up to eight
Security✚® remote controls and one Security✚® Keyless
Entry System. If you purchase a new remote, or if you
wish to deactivate any remote, follow the instructions in
the Programming section.
6. If obstructed while opening, the door will stop.
7. If fully open, the door will not close when the beam is
broken. The sensor has no effect in the opening cycle.
If the sensor is not installed, or is misaligned, the door
won’t close from a hand-held remote. However, you can
close the door with the Door Control, the Outside
Keylock, or Keyless Entry, if you activate them until down
travel is complete. If you release them too soon, the door
will reverse.
Activate your opener with any of the following:
• The hand-held Remote Control: Hold the large push
button down until the door starts to move.
• The wall-mounted Door Control: Hold the push button
or bar down until the door starts to move.
The opener lights will turn on under the following
conditions: when the opener is initially plugged in; when
power is restored after interruption; when the opener is
activated.
• The Keyless Entry (See Accessories): If provided with
your garage door opener, it must be programmed
before use. See Programming.
They will turn off automatically after 4-1/2 minutes or
provide constant light when the Light feature on the
Multi-Function Door Control is activated. Bulb size is A19.
Bulb power is 100 watts maximum.
Security✚® light feature: Lights will also turn on when
someone walks through the open garage door. With a
Multi-Function Door Control, this feature may be turned
off as follows: With the opener lights off, press and hold
the light button for 10 seconds, until the light goes on,
then off again. To restore this feature, start with the
opener lights on, then press and hold the light button for
10 seconds until the light goes off, then on again.
When the opener is activated (with the safety
reversing sensor correctly installed and aligned)
1. If open, the door will close. If closed, it will open.
2. If closing, the door will reverse.
3. If opening, the door will stop.
4. If the door has been stopped in a partially open
position, it will close.
5. If obstructed while closing, the door will reverse. If the
obstruction interrupts the sensor beam, the opener
lights will blink for five seconds.

3. My door reverses for no apparent reason: Repeat
safety reverse test after adjustments to force or travel
limits. The need for occasional adjustment for the force
and limit settings is normal. Weather conditions in
particular can affect door travel.
6. My motor unit hums briefly:
• First verify that the trolley is against the stop bolt.
• Release the door from the opener by pulling the
Emergency Release Rope.
• Manually bring the door to a closed position.
• Manually check door for balance or any binding
problems.
• Loosen the chain by adjusting the outer nut 4 to 5
turns. This relieves the tension.

• Run the motor unit from the remote control or door
control. The trolley should travel towards the door
and stop. If the trolley re-engages with the door, pull
the Emergency Release Rope to disengage.
4. My door reverses for no apparent reason after fully
closing and touching the floor: Repeat safety reverse
test after adjustments to force or travel limits. The need
for occasional adjustment for the force and limit

affect door travel.
• Decrease the UP travel by turning the UP Travel
adjustment screw 2 full turns away from the arrow.
• Re-tighten the outer nut so the chain is a 1/2" (13
mm) above the base of the rail. (When the door is
reconnected and closed, the chain will sag. This is
normal.)
• Refer to Adjustment Step 1, Adjust the UP and
DOWN Travel Limits. Decrease down travel by turning
down limit adjustment screw clockwise.
• If the trolley does not move away from the bolt,
repeat the steps above.
5. My lights will not turn off when door is open:
• The garage door opener is equipped with a security
light feature. This feature activates the light on when
the safety sensor beam has been obstructed. Refer to
Operation section; Using the Wall Mounted Door
