Pre-Installation
IMPORTANT! Before starting the installation read these instructions thoroughly to
familiarize yourself with all aspects of installation and adjustment.
IMPORTANT: IF YOUR GARAGE HAS NO SERVICE ENTRANCE DOOR, INSTALL AN OPTIONAL OUTSIDE QUICK RELEASE LOCK. THIS ACCESSORY
ALLOWS MANUAL OPERATION OF GARAGE DOOR FROM OUTSIDE IN CASE OF POWER FAILURE.
IDENTIFY YOUR DOOR
Identify your door by referring to illustrations below and verify that your door type is a sectional door with curved track. Do not install if the door
is any type of one piece door.
NOTE: The opener has been designed for sectional doors. Do not attempt to install this opener on any style one piece door. Using this opener on
a one-piece door may result in serious personal injury or property damage.
TEST YOUR DOOR
Before you begin, complete the following two tests to insure that the door is balanced and working properly. A door that binds, sticks or is out
of balance could cause severe injury. Do not attempt to compensate for an improperly adjusted door by the installation of an opener. This will
interfere with the proper operation of the opener’s safety features and/or may damage the door or opener. Have a qualifi ed service person
make any needed adjustments or repairs before proceeding with installation.
Door Test One
Raise and lower the door and check closely for any sticking or binding
that may occur. Lift the door approximately half way open, as
illustrated. When releasing the door, it should stay in position. If spring
tension pulls the door further open or door weight pulls it down, your
door is not properly adjusted.
Door Test Two
When properly installed, a door should remain clear of the
opening, when allowed to rest at its natural, full open position.
If “door drift” pulls door back into opening or spring tension is
not suffi cient to pull door totally clear of opening, the door is not
properly adjusted.

PRE-ASSEMBLY CHECK
Every opener is factory tested and shipped with the limit switch adjustment in the door CLOSED
position. If the opener has been powered up before assembly, perform the following steps to insure
that the limit switch adjustment is in the door CLOSED position. Connect the opener to a power
source and short across the screw terminals labeled “PB” and “COM” with a metal screw driver.
Motor should start; run through a full OPEN cycle, (driven gear rotates clockwise) and stop. This
will leave opener in OPEN position. To get the opener back to full CLOSE position, short and hold
“PB” and “COM” terminals again (driven gear rotates counter clockwise). Continue to short
terminals until opener stops in the CLOSED position. If the contact between “PB” and “COM” is
lost, the motor will stop, reverse, and travel back to the open limit, repeat with a constant short
across “PB” and “COM”.
CAUTION: KEEP CLEAR OF ALL ROTATING AND MOVING PARTS.
FAILURE TO KEEP CLEAR OF ROTATING AND MOVING PARTS CAN RESULT IN SEVERE INJURY.
Disconnect from power source and proceed to assembly.
