may not reverse and could result in severe injury or death. Repairs to cables, spring assemblies

and other hardware must be made by a professional service person before installing opener.

3. Disable all locks and remove all ropes connected to the garage door before installing the opener.

Ropes connected to a garage door can cause entanglement and death.

4. If possible, install door opener 7 feet or more above floor with the emergency release handle

mounted 6 feet above the floor.

5. Do not connect the opener to power source until instructed to do so.

6. Locate the Door Control within sight of the door at a minimum height of 5 feet where small

children cannot reach and away from all moving parts of the door.

7. Install the User Safety Instruction Label on the wall adjacent to the door control and the

Maintenance Instruction Label in a prominent location on the inside of the garage door.

8. Upon completion of the installation, the door must reverse when it comes in contact with a

one-inch high object or a 2x4 laid flat on the floor.

9. Do not wear watches, rings or loose clothing while installing or servicing an opener. Jewelry or

loose clothing can be caught in the mechanism of the garage door or the opener,

Installation Step 9 J

Electrical Requirements

To reduce the risk of electric shock, your garage

door opener has a grounding type plug with a third

grounding pin. This plug will onlyfit 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.

I To avoid installation difficulties, I

do not run the opener at this time.

To prevent electrocution or fire, installation

and wiring must be in compliance with local

electrical and building codes.

Do NOTuse an extension cord, 2-wire adapter,

or change the plug in any way to make it fit

your outlet.

Right Wrong

If permanent wiring is required by your local code, refer to the following procedure:

To make a permanent connection through the

7/8" diameter hole in the top of the opener

(according to local code):

• Remove the opener 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 the

screw on the silver terminal; and the ground wire

to the green ground screw. The opener must be

grounded.

• Reinstall the cover.

and aligned correctly before the garage door

opener will move in the down direction. This is a

required safety device and cannot be disabled.

installation procedures are the same for sectional

and one-piece doors.

Information you'll need before you begin the installation of the safety reversing sensor.

The safety reversing sensor mustbe connected

Without a properly working safety reversing

sensor, persons (particularly children) could

be injured or killed by a closing garage door.

Read and follow all instructions.

To protect small children, install the safety

reversing sensor so that the beam will be no

higher than 4"-6" above the garage floor.

Disconnect power to the garage door opener

before installing the safety reversing sensor.

Be sure power to the opener is disconnected.

The sending eye transmits an invisible light beam to

the receiving eye. The units can be installed on

either side of the garage door as long as the sun

never shines directly into the receiving eye lens.

Look at the label on the connector end of each case

to identify the sensors.

The brackets must be connected and fastened so

that the sending and receiving eyes face each other

as shown in Figure 1.

If an obstructionbreaks the light beam while the

garage door isclosing, the door will stop and

reverse to full open position and the opener lights

will flash for 5 seconds.

The brackets mustbe securely fastened to a solid

surface such as the studs on either side of the door,

or add a piece of wood at each location if installing in

masonry construction.

The invisible light beam path must be unobstructed.

No part of the garage door (or door tracks, springs,

hinges, rollers or other hardware) can interrupt the

beam while the door is closing, if it does, use a piece

of wood to build out each sensor mounting location to

the minimum depth required for light beam clearance.

Figures 2 and 3 show assembly of brackets and

"C" wrap based on the recommended installation of

the sensors as shown on page 21.

However, Figures 4 and 5 are variations which may

fit your installation requirements better. Make sure

the wraps and brackets are aligned so the

sensors will face each other across the garage

door.

i Fasten the "C" wraps to the mounting brackets

having square holes, using the hardware shown

in Figure 2.

Connect each assembly to a slotted bracket, using

the hardware shown in Figure 3.

Note the alignment of the brackets for left and

right sides of the door.

• Finger tighten the lock nuts.

• Use bracket mounting holes as a template to

locate and drill (2) 3/16" diameter pilot holes on

both sides of the garage door, 4"-6" above the

floor but not exceeding 6" (See warning on

page 21 .)

• Attach bracket assemblies with 1/4"x1-1/2" lag

screws as shown in Figure 3.

• Adjust right and left side bracket assemblies to the

same distance out from the mounting surface.

Make sure all door hardware obstructions are

cleared. Tighten the nuts securely.

Fasten Door Bracket

Follow instructions which apply to your door

type as illustrated below or on page 25.

T_ prevent damage to steel, aluminum,

fiberglass or glass panel doors, always

reinforce the inside of the door both vertlcany

and horizontally with an angle iron.

A horizontal brace should be long enough to be secured to 2 vertical supports. A vertical brace should

cover the height of the top panel.

The illustration 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.

• Center the door bracket on the previously marked

vertical guideline used for the header bracket

installation. Note the correct UP plaeement, as

stamped inside the bracket.

• Position the bracket on the face of the door within

the following limits:

A) The top edge of the bracket 2"-4" betow the top

edge of the door.

I_) The top edge of the bracket directly below any

Structural support across the top of the door.

• Mark and drill 5/16" left and right fastening holes.

Secure the bracket as shown in Figure I if there is

vertical reinforcement.

If your instaltation doesn't require vertical reinforce-

ment but does need top and bottom fastening hoJes

for the door bracket, fasten as shown in Figure 2.

Open Door Adjustment:

Decrease UP limit

• Turn the UP limit adjustment screw counter-

clockwise 5-1/2 turns.

• Press the Door Control push bar or button. The

trolley will travel to the fully open position.

• Manually raise the door to the open position

(parallel to the floor), and liftthe 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" of

trolley travel.

Closed Door Adjustment:

Decrease DOWN limit

* Turn the DOWN limit adjustment screw clockwise 5

complete turns.

° Press the Door Control push bar or button. The

trolley will travel to the fully closed position.

, 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" of trolley travel.

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.

• Run the opener through a complete travel cycle. Ifthe door has a slight "backward" slant in full open position

as shown in the illustration, decrease the UP limit untilthe door is parallel to the floor.

Adjustment Section: Pages 28 - 30

Adjustment Step 1

Adjust the UP and DOWN Limits

Do not make any limit adjustments until the

safety reversing sensors are completely

installed.

Limit adjustment settings regulate the points at

which the door will stopwhen moving up or down.

The door will stop in the up direction if anything

interferes with door travel. The door will reverse in

the down direction if anything interferes with the

I door travel (including binding or unbalanced doors).

! To operate the opener, press the Door Control push

button. 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 (See page 30).

Improper adjustment of the travel limits will

interfere with the proper operation of the safety

reverse system. The door might not reverse

properly when required and could seriously

injure or kill someone under it. Test the safety

reverse system following all adjustments to the

travel limits. See page 30.

Urnff

Adjustment

Screws

Protection

Belt

Left Side Panel

Adjustment procedures are outlined below. Run the

opener through a complete travel cycle after

each adjustment.

Repeated operation of the opener during adjustment

_rocedures may cause the motor to overheat and

shut off. Simply wait 15 minutes and try again.

Read the procedures carefully before continuing on

to Adjustment Step 2. Use a screwdriver to make

limit adjustments.

How and When to Adjust the Limits

• If the door does not open completely

but opens at leastfive feet:

Increase up travel, Turn the UP limit adjustment

screw clockwise. One turn equals 2" of travel.

NOTE: To prevent the trolley from hitting the

cover protection bolt, keep a minimum distance

of 2-4" between the trolley and the bolt.

• If door does not open at least 5 feet:

Adjust the UP (open) force as explained in

Adjustment Step 2,

• If the door does not close completely:

Increase downtravel. Turn the DOWN limit

adjustment screw counterclockwise. One turn

equals 2" of travel.

If door still won't close completely and the trolley

bumps into the pulley bracket (see page 4 or 5), try

lengthening the door arm. (see page 26).

If you have adjusted the door arm to the maximum

length and the door still will not close completely,

lower the header bracket. See Installation Step 1,

pages 12 and 13.

• If the opener reverses in fully closed position:

Decrease down travel. Turn the DOWN limit

adjustment screw clockwise. One turn equals 2" of

travel.

• If the door reverses when closing and

there is no visible interference to travel cycle:

If the opener lights are flashing, the Safety Reversing

Sensors are either not installed, misaligned, or

obstructed. See "rroubleshooting, page 23.

Test the door for binding: Pull the emergency release

handle. Manually open and close the door. If the door

is binding, call for garage door service. If the door is

not binding or unbalanced, adjust the DOWN (close)

force. See Adjustment Step 2.

Adjustment Step 2

Adjust the Force

Force adjustment controls are located on the back

_anel of the opener. Force adjustment settings

regulate the amount of power required to open and

close the door.

The door will stop in the up direction if anything

interferes with its travel. The door will reversein the

down direction if anything interferes with its travel

(including binding or unbalanced doors).

If the forces are set too light, door travel may be

interrupted by nuisance reversals in the down

direction and stopsin the updirection. Weather

conditions can affect the door movement, so

occasional adjustment may be needed.

The maximum force adjustment range is 260 degrees,

about 3/4 of a complete turn. Do not force controls

beyond that point. Turn force adjustment controls

with a screwdriver.

Adjustment Label

Too much force on the door will interfere with

the proper operation of the safety reverse

system. The door might not reverse properly

when required and could seriously injure or kill

someone under it. Do not increase the force

beyond the minimum amount required to close

the door. Do not use the force adjustments to

compensate for a binding or sticking garage

door. Test the safety reverse system following

all adjustments to force levels. See page 30.

Back panel of

door opener

Force

Adjustment

Control

How and When to Adjust the Forces

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 two-inch

obstruction. See page 30. If the door is hard to

hold or doesn't reverse, decrease the DOWN (close)

force by turning the control counterclockwise.

Make 10 degree turn adjustments until the door

reverses normally. After each adjustment, run the

opener through a complete cycle.

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 10 degree turn adjustments until the door stops

easily. After each adjustment, run the opener through

a complete travel cycle.

If the door doesn't open atleast5 feet

Increase UP (Open) force by turning the control

clockwise. Make 10 degree turn adjustments until

door opens completely. Re-adjust the UP limitif

necessary. After each adjustment, run the opener

through a complete travel 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 10 degree turn 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 Reversing Sensor

• 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,

and the opener light will flash.

Professional service is required if the opener

closes the door when the safety reversing

sensor is obstructed,

The garage door opener will not close from a

remote control if the indicator light in either

sensor is off(alerting you to the fact that the

sensor is misaligned or obstructed),

The garage door can be closed by pressing and

holding the Door Control push button until down

travel iscompleted,

Test:

• Place a one-inch board (or a 2x4 laid flat) on the

floor, centered under the garage door.

• Operate the door in the down direction. The door

must reverse on striking the obstruction,

I Adjustment:

If the door stopson the obstruction, it is not traveling

far enough in the down direction.

• Increase the DOWN limitby turning the DOWN

limitadjustment screw countemlockwise 1/4 turn.

• Repeat the test.

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 26.

• When the door reverses on the one-inch board,

remove the obstruction and run the opener through

3 or 4 complete travel cycles to test adjustment.

Ifthe door will not reverse after repeated

adjustment attempts, call Sears Service Center

for garage door opener service.

or limit controls.

• Any repair to or adjustment of the garage door

(including springs and hardware).

• Any repair to or buckling of the garage floor.

• Any repair to or adjustment of the opener.

Situation

Having a Problem?

Probable Cause and Solution

The opener doesn't

operate from either

the Doer Control or

the remote control:

1. Does the opener have electric power?. Pluga lamp into the outlet. If itdoesn't light,

check the fuse box or the circuit breaker. (Some outlets are controlled by a wall switch.)

2. Have you disabled all door locks? Review installation instruction warnings on Page 11.

3. is there a build-up of ice or snow under the door? The door may be frozen to the

ground. Remove any restriction.

4. The garage door spring may be broken. Have it replaced.

5. Repeated operation may have tripped the overload protector in the motor. Wait

15 minutes. Try again.

Opener operates

from the remote

control, but not from

the Door Control:

1. Is the Door Control lit? If not, remove the bell wire from the opener terminal screws.

Short the red and white terminals by touching both terminals at the same time with a

piece of wire. If the opener runs, check for a faulty wire connection at the Door

Control, a short under the staples, or a broken wire.

2. Are the wiring connections correct? Review Step 6, page 18.

The door operates

from the Door

Control, but not from

the remote control:

1. Is any door push button flashing? If your model has the Lock feature, make sure the

lock is Off.

2. Your opener needs to re-learn a remote control code. Refer to instructions on the

opener panel.

3, Program the receiver to match the remote control code,

4. Repeat the receiver programming procedure with all remote controls.

The remote control

has short range:

1. Change the location of the remote control in your car.

2. Check to be sure the antenna on the side or back panel of opener extends fully

downward.

Some installations may have shorter range due to a metal door, foil backed

insulation, or metal garage siding. (Antenna Extender Kit 41A3504)

Opener noise is

disturbing in living

quarters of home:

If operational noise is a problem because of proximityof the opener to the living

quarters, the Vibration Isolator Kit 41A3263 can be installed. This kit was designed to

minimize vibration to the house and is easy to install.

The garage door

opens and closes

by itself:

1. Be sure that all remote control push buttons are off.

2. Remove the bell wire from the Door Control terminals and operate from the remote

control only. If this solves the problem, the Door Control is faulty (replace), or there is

an intermittent short on the wire between the Door Control and the opener.

3. Clear memory and reprogram all remote controls.

The door doesn't

open completely:

1. If the door has been working properly but now doesn't open all the way, increase the

up force. See page 29.

2. Is something obstructing the door? Remove the obstruction or repair the doer.

3. If door opens at least 5 feet, the travel limits may need to be increased. One turn

equals 2 inches of travel. See page 28.

Repeat the safety reverse test after the adjustment is complete.

The door stops but

doesn ?close

completely:

Review the travel limits adjustment procedures on page 28.

Repeat the safety reverse test after any adjustment of door arm length, close

force or down limit,

Situation

Having a Problem? (continued)

Probable Cause & Solution

The door opens but 1,

won't close: 2,

If the opener lights blink, check the safety reversing sensor. See page 23.

If the opener lights do not blink and it is a new installation, check the down force.

See Adjustment Step 2, page 29. For an existing installation, see below.

Repeat the safety reverse test after the adjustment is complete,

The door reverses for

no apparent reason

and opener lights

don't blink:

1. Is something obstructing the door? Pull the red emergency release handle. Operate

the door manually. If it is unbalanced or binding, call for professional garage door

service.

Clear any ice or snow from the garage floor area where the door closes.

Review the force adjustment procedures on page 29.

If door reverses in the fully closedposition, decrease the travel limits (page 28).

Repeat safety reverse test after adjustments to force or travel limits, The need

for occasional adjustment of the force and limit seffings is normal Weather

conditions in particular can affect door traveL

The door reverses for

no apparent reason

and opener lights

blink for 5 seconds

after reversing:

Check the safety reversing sensor. Remove any obstruction or align the receiving eye.

See page 23.

The opener light:

The opener strains or

maximum force is

needed to operate

Is the Light feature on?.Turn it off

The door may be out ofbalance or the springsare broken. Close the door and use the

emergency release to disconnectthe trolley.Open and close the doormanually. A properly

balanced door willstay in any pointoftravel whilebeing supportedentirely by itssprings. Ifit

does not,disconnectthe opener and call a professionalgarage door serviceman. Do not

increase the force to operate the opener,

The opener motor

hums briefly, then

won't work:

The garage door springs are broken. See above.

if the problem occurs on the first operation of the opener, door may be locked. Disable

the doorlock. Ifthe chain was removed and reinstalled, the motor may be out of phase.

Remove the chain; cycle the motor to the down position. Observe the drive sprocket.

When it turns in a clockwise direction and stops in the down position, reinstall the chain.

Repeat the safety reverse test after the adjustment is complete,

The opener won't

operate due to

power failure:

1. Use the emergency release to disconnectthe troUey.The doorcan be opened and closed

manually. When the power is restored, press the Door Control push button and trolley will

automatically reconnect (unless trolley is in lockout position.)See page 32.

2. The Emergency Key Release accessory (for use on garages with no service door)

disconnects the trolley from outside the garage in case of power failure.

The chain droops

or sags:

It is normal for the chain to droop slightly in the closed door position. Use the

emergency release to disconnect the trolley. If the chain returns to normal height when

the trolley is disengaged and the door reverses on a one-inch board, no adjustments

are needed (see page 11).
