The Safety Reversing Sensor
Information you'll need before you begin the installation of 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. This is a required safety
device and cannot be disabled.
Installation procedures are the same Jbr sectional and
one-piece dool_=
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 lnUStbe connected and thstened so that the
sending and receiving eyes t:ace each other as shown.
If an obstruction breaks the light beam while the garage
door is closing, the door will stop and reverse to fidl open
position and the opener lights will flash for 5 secon&.
The brackets must be securely _hstened to a solid surthce
such as the studs on either side of the door, or add a piece
of wood at each location if installing in masonry
constrnction.
Withouta properly working safety reversing sensor,

The invisible light beam path lnnst be unobstrncted. No
part of the garage door (or door tracks, springs, hinges,
rollers or other hardware) can intemtpt the beam while
the door is closing. If it does, use a piece of wood to bnild
out each sensor mounting location to the minimum depth
required for light beam clearance.
