Electrical Requirements
To avoid installation difficulties, do not run the
opener at this time.
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.
If permanent wiring Is required by your local
code, refer to the following procedure.
To make a permanent connection through the 7/8"
hole in the top of the motor unit:
Remove the motor unit cover screws and set the
cover aside.
Remove the attached 3-prong cord
Connect the black (line) wire to the screw on the
brass terminal;the white (neutral) wire to thescrew

IMPORTANT INFORMATION ABOUT
THE SAFETY REVERSING SENSOR
When properlyconnected and aligned, the sensor
will detectan obstacle in the path of itselectronic
beam. The sendingeye (withan orange indicator
light)transmitsan invisiblelightbeam to the
receivingeye (with a green indicatorlight).If an
obstructionbreaks the lightbeam while the door is
closing,the door willstop and reverse to fullopen
position,and the opener lightswill flash 10 times.
The unitsmust be installedinsidethe garage so that
the sendingand receivingeyes face each other
acrossthe door,no higher than 6" above the floor.
Eithercan be installedon the left or dghtofthe door
as long as the sun never shinesdirectlyintothe

ADJUSTMENT STEP 2
Adjust the Force
Force adjustmentcontrolsare locatedon the right
side panel of the motorunit. Force adjustment
settingsregulatethe amountof power requiredto
open and closethe door.
If the forces are set too light,door travel may be
interruptedby nuisance reversalsin the down
directionand stops in the up direction,Weather
conditionscan affectthe doormovement, so
occasionaladjustmentmay be needed,
The maximum force adjustment range is about
3/4 of a complete turn. Do not force controls
beyond that point. Turn force adjustmentcontrols
with a screwdriver.
NOTE: ff anythinginterfereswith thedoor's upward
travel, ff willstop. Ifanythinginterferes withthe
door's downwardtravel (includingbindingor
unbalanced doors),it willreverse.
HOW AND WHEN TO ADJUST THE FORCES
1. Test the DOWN (close) force
Grasp the door bottomwhen the door isabout
halfway throughDOWN (close) travel.The door
shouldreverse. Reversal halfway through down
travel does not guarantee reversalon a one-inch
obstruction.See AdjustmentStep 3, page 30.
If the door is hard to hold or doesn't reverse,
DECREASE the DOWN (close)force by turning
the controlcounterclockwise.Make small
adjustmentsuntilthe door reverses normally.
After each adjustment,runthe opener through
a complete cycle.
If the door reverses during the down (close)
cycle end the opener lights aren't flashing,
INCREASE DOWN (close) force by turningthe
controlclock'wise.Make smalladjustmentsuntil
the door completesa closecycle. After each
adjustment,runthe opener through a complete
travel cycle. Do notincrease the force beyond
the minimumamountrequired to close the door.
2. Test the UP (open) force
Grasp the door bottom when the door is about
halfwaythrough UP (open)travel. The door
shouldstop.If the door is hard to hold or
doesn't stop, DECREASE UP (open) force by
turningthe controlcounterclockwise. Make small
adjustmentsuntilthe door stops easily and
opens fully. After each adjustment,run the
opener through a completetravel cycle.
If the door doesn't open at least 5 feet,
INCREASE UP (open)force by tuming the
