Locate door control within sight of doer at a minimum
height of 5 feet(t.5 m) where smafichildren cannot
reach, and away from moving parts of door and door
hardware. The installation surface must besmooth and
flat. if installing into drywall (Figure 1), drill 5/32" ho_es
and useanchors provided. For pre-wired installations (as
in new homeconstruction), it may bemounted to a single
gangbox (Figure 2). NOTE:After installation, a green or
amber indicator light behind thecover will indicate proper
connection. If not lit, the Lockand Light features will not
function (reverse wires to correct).
1. Strip 7/16" (tl ram) 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 WriT andwhite/red
wire to the RED(Figure 3).
2. Removewhite cover by gently prying on a side
corner nearthe top of thecover with asmall flat head
screwdriver (Figure 4), Fastenwith 6ABx1-ti4"
self-tapping screws (drywall installation) or 6-32xt"
machine screws (into gang box) as fOllOwS:
- Drill and instatl bottom screw, allowing I/8" (3 mm)
to protrude above wall surface.
Position bottom ot door controI on screw headand
slide down to secure. Adjust screw for snug fit,
•tnstali top screw with care to avoidcracking plastic
housing. Denot overtighten,
- Insert bottom tabs and snap on cover.

mounted on a smooth surface, ira click is not heard
when pressing thepush bar, loosen thetwo mounting
screws or relocate the door control to a smoother
surfacer
3. (Standard installation only) Run bell wire up wattand
across ceiling to motor unit. Use insulated staplesto
secure wire in several places. Donot pierce wire with a
staple,creating a short or opencircuit.
4. Strip 7/16" (11 ram) of insulation from end of bell wire.
Connectbell wire to the quick-connect terminals as
foflows: white to white andwhite/red to red (Figure5),
NOTE:When connecting multiple door controls tothe
opener, twist samecolor wires together. Insed wires
into quick-connect holes: white to white and red/white
to red.
5, Use tacks or staples to permanentfyattach entrapment

Limit adiustment settings regulate the points atwhich the
door wilt stop when moving up or down.
To operate theopener, press the Door Control push bar.
Run the openerthrough a complete travet cycle.
. Does the door open and close completely?
o Does the door stay closed and not reverse
unintentionally when fully closed?
it your door passes both of these tests, no limit
adjustments arenecessary unfessthe reversing test fails
(Adjustment Step 3, page 30).
Adjustment procedures are outlined below. Readthe
procedures carefully before proceeding to Adjustment
Step 2. Use ascrewdriver to make limit adjustments, Bun
the opener through acomplete travel cycle after each
adjustment.
NOTE:Repeatedoperation of the opener during adjustment
procedures may causethe motor to overheat and shut off.
Simply wait !5 minutes and try again, If anything interferes
with the door's upward travel, it wilt stop. If anything
interferes with the door's downward travel (including
binding or unbalanced doors), it win reverse.
HOW AND WHEN TO ADJUST THE LIMITS
If the doordoesnot opencompletelybutopens at
least live feet (1.5 m):
increase up travel. Turn the UPfimit adjustment screw
clockwise. Oneturn equals 2" (5 cm) of travel.
NOTE: Toprevent the trolley from hitting thecover
protection bolt, keep a minimum distance of
2-4" (5 cm - 10cm) between the trolley and the bolt.
If door doesnotopenat least 5 feet (1.5 m):
Adjust the UP(open) force as explained in
Adjustment Step 2.
If the door doesnotclose completely:
Increasedown travel Turn the down limit adjustment
screw counterclockwise. One turn equals 2" (5 cm) of
travel.
If door still won't close completely and the trolley
bumps into the puiley bracket (page 4), try lengthening
the door arm (page 26) and decreasing the down limit,
o If the openerreverses in fully closedposition:
Decreasedown travel. Turn the down limit adjustment
screw clockwise. Oneturn equats 2" (5 cm) of travel.
Without a properly installed safety reversal system,
persons (particularly smali children) could be
SERIOUSLYiNJUREDor KILLED bya closing garage
door.
Incorrect adjustment of garagedoor travel limits
will interfere with proper operation ol safety
reversalsystem,
If onecontrol (force or travel limits) is adiusted, the
other control may also needadjustment.
After ANY adjustments are made, the safety
reversalsystem MUST betested. Door MUST

andstops in the up direction. Weather conditions can
affect thedoor movement, so occasional adjustment may
be needed.
The maximum forceadjustment range is about3/4 of a
completeturn.Do notforce controlsbeyondthat point.
Turn force adjustment controls with a screwdriver.
NOTE:If anything interferes with thedoor's upward travel,
it will stop. tf 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) for¢e
, 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-!/2"
(3.8 cm) obstruction. SeeAdjustment Step 3,
page30. Ifthe door is hard tohold ordoesn't
reverse, DECREASEthe DOWN (c_ose)force by
turning thecontrol counterclockwise, MakesmaII
adjustments until the door reverses normally.
After each adjustment, runthe opener through a
complete cycle.
If the doorreversesduring the down (close) cycle
and the opener lights aren't flashing, iNCREASE
DOWN(close) force by turning the control
clockwise. Makesmall adjustments until the door
compEetesa close cycle. After each adiustment, run
the openerthrough a complete travel cycle. Do not
increase the torce beyond theminimum amount
required to close the door.
2. Testthe UP (open) force
- Graspthe door bottom when the door is about
halfway through UP (open) travel. The door should
stop. if the door is hardto holdor doesn'tstop,
DECREASEUP (open) force by turning the control
counterclockwise. Makesmall adiustments until
the door stops easilyand opens fully. After each
adjustment, run the openerthrough acomplete
travel cycle.
If the door doesn't open at least5 feet (1.5 m),
INCREASEUP(open) force by turning the control
clockwise. Makesmall adjustments until door opens
completely. Readjustthe UP limit if necessary.
After eachadjustment, run the opener through a
complete travei cycle.
Without a properly installed safetyreversal system,
perso_ts(particularIy small children) could be
SERIOUSLYiNJUREDor KILLED by actosing garage
door.
* Too much force ongarage door will interfere with
proper operation ofsafety reversal system.
- NEVERincreaseforce beyond minimum amount
requiredto close garagedoor.
* NEVERuse force adiustments to compensate for a
binding or sticking garage door.
. If one control (force or travel limits) is adjusted, the
other control may also needadiustment.
o After ANY adjustments are made, the safety
reversalsystem MUST betested. Door MUST
reverse oncontact with t-1/2" high (3.8 cm) object
(or 2x4 laid fiat) on floor.

TEST
With the door fully open, placea 1-1/2" (3.8 cm) board
(or a2x4 taid flat) on the floor, centered under the
garagedoor.
Operatethedoor in the down direction, The door must
reverse onstriking the obstruction.
ADJUST
tf the door stops onthe obstruction, it is nottraveling
far enough in the down direction. Increasethe DOWN
limit by turning the DOWNlimit adjustment screw
counterclockwise 1/4 turn,
NOTE:Ona sectional door, make sure limit adjustments
donot force the door arm beyonda straight up and
down position. See theillustration onpage26.
- Repeatthe test.
When the door reverseson the I-1/2" (3.8 cm) board
(or 2x4 laid fiat), remove the obstruction andrun the
opener through 3or 4 complete travel cycles to test
adjustment.
If theunit continues to fait the Safety ReverseTest,calf
for a traineddoor systems technician.
IMPORTANT SAFETY CHECK:
Testthe Safety ReverseSystem after:
Eachadjustment of door arm length, limits, or force
controls.
Any repair to or adjustment of the garagedoor
(including springs and hardware).
Any repair to or buckling of thegaragefloor.
Any repair to or adiustment of the opener.
Without a properly installed safety reversal system,
persons (particularly small children) could be
SERIOUSLYINJUREDor KILLED by aclosing garage
door.
Safetyreversal system MUSTbetested every
month.
If onecontroi (force or travel limits) is adjusted, the
other controt may also needadjustment,
Alter ANY adjustments are made, the safety
