• Disable ALLlocks and remove ALLropes connected to garage door BEFORE installation and
operating garage door opener to avoid entanglement.
• DO NOT install on a one-piece door if using devices or features providing unattended close.
Unattended devices and features are to be used ONLY with sectional doors.
To prevent damage to garage door and opener:
• ALWAYS disable locks BEFORE installing and operating the opener.
• ONLY operate garage door opener at 120V, 60Hz to avoid malfunction and damage.
Before you begin:
1. Disable locks and remove any ropes connected to the garage door.
2. Lift the door halfway up. Release the door. If balanced, it should stay in place,
supported entirely by its springs.
3. Raise and lower the door to check for binding or sticking. If your door binds,
sticks, or is out of balance, call a trained door systems technician.
4. Check the seal on the bottom of the door. Any gap between the floor and the
bottom of the door must not exceed 1/4" (6 mm). Otherwise, the safety
reversal system may not work properly.
5. The opener should be installed above the center of the door. If there is a
torsion spring or center bearing plate in the way of the header bracket, it may
be installed within 4feet (1.2 m) to the left or right of the door center. See

Installation
1 Determine the Header Bracket Location
To prevent possible SERIOUS INJURY or DEATH:
• Header bracket MUST be RIGIDLY fastened to structural support on header wall or ceiling, otherwise
garage door might NOT reverse when required. DO NOT install header bracket over drywall.
• Concrete anchors MUST be used if mounting header bracket or 2x4 into masonry.
• NEVER try to loosen, move or adjust garage door, springs, cables, pulleys, brackets, or their
hardware, ALL of which are under EXTREME tension.
• ALWAYS call a trained door systems technician if garage door binds, sticks, or is out of balance. An
unbalanced garage door might NOT reverse when required.
• DO NOT enable the Timer-to-Close functionality if operating either one-piece or swinging garage
doors. To be enabled ONLY when operating a sectional door.
Close the door and mark the inside vertical centerline of the garage door.
Extend the line onto the header wall above the door. You can fasten the header bracket within 4 feet (1.22 m)
of the left or right of the door center only if a torsion spring or center bearing plate is in the way; or you can
attach it to the ceiling when clearance is minimal. (It may be mounted on the wall upside down if necessary, to
gain approximately 1/2" (1 cm). If you need to install the header bracket on a 2x4 (on wall or ceiling), use lag
screws (not provided) to securely fasten the 2x4 to structural supports.
Open your door to the highest point of travel as shown. Draw an intersecting horizontal line on the header wall
2" (5 cm) above the high point. This height will provide travel clearance for the top edge of the door.
NOTE: If the total number of inches exceeds the height available in your garage, use the maximum height
possible, or refer to page 10 for ceiling installation.

7 Install the Door Bracket
Fiberglass, aluminum or lightweight steel garage doors WILL REQUIRE reinforcement BEFORE
installation of door bracket. Contact the garage door manufacturer or installing dealer for opener
reinforcement instructions or reinforcement kit. Failure to reinforce the top section as required according
to the door manufacturer may void the door warranty.
A horizontal and vertical reinforcement is needed for
lightweight garage doors (fiberglass, aluminum, steel, doors
with glass panel, etc.) (not provided). A horizontal
reinforcement brace should be long enough to be secured to
two or three vertical supports. A vertical reinforcement brace
should cover the height of the top panel. Contact the garage
door manufacturer or installing dealer for opener
reinforcement instructions or reinforcement kit.
NOTE: Many door reinforcement kits provide for direct attachment of the clevis pin and door arm. In this case
you will not need the door bracket; proceed to the next step.

installation. Note correct UP placement, as stamped inside the bracket.
2. Position the top edge of the bracket 2"-4" (5-10 cm) below the top edge of the door, OR directly below
any structural support across the top of the door.
3. Mark, drill holes and install as follows, depending on your door’s construction:
Metal or light weight doors using a vertical angle iron brace between the door panel support and
the door bracket:
• Drill 3/16" fastening holes. Secure the door bracket using the two self threading screws. (Figure1)
• Alternately, use two 5/16"-18x2" bolts, lock washers and nuts (not provided). (Figure2)
Metal, insulated or light weight factory reinforced doors:
• Drill 3/16" fastening holes. Secure the door bracket using the self-threading screws. (Figure3)

Install the Protector System®
Introduction
Be sure power is NOT connected to the garage door opener BEFORE installing the safety reversing
sensor.
To prevent SERIOUS INJURY or DEATH from closing garage door:
• Correctly connect and align the safety reversing sensor. This required safety device MUST NOT be
disabled.
• Install the safety reversing sensor so beam is NO HIGHER than 6" (15 cm) above garage floor.
IMPORTANT: The safety reversing sensors MUST be connected and aligned correctly before the garage
door opener will move in the down direction.
The Protector System® includes two safety reversing sensors which use a light beam to prevent the garage
door from closing. The sending sensor (amber LED) transmits the beam to the receiving sensor (green LED)
when both are powered and aligned. If an obstruction breaks the light beam while the door is closing, the
door will stop, and reverse to the full open position, and the garage door opener lights will flash 10 times.
When installing the safety reversing sensors, check:
• Sensors are installed INSIDE the garage.
• Sensor lenses are facing each other. IMPORTANT: Do not allow direct sunlight to the receiving sensor
(green LED).
• Sensor beam is NO HIGHER than 6" (15 cm) above the floor and the light beam is unobstructed.

The safety reversing sensors are designed to clip onto the door track with the provided sensor brackets. If
the door track will not support the sensor bracket a wall installation is recommended. The sensor beam should
be NO HIGHER than 6" (15 cm) above the floor.
DOOR TRACK INSTALLATION
1. Slide the curved arms of the sensor bracket around the edge of the door track. Snap into place so that
the sensor bracket is flush against the track.
2. Slide the hex screw through the sensor.
3. Attach the sensor to the bracket with the wing nut. Make sure the lens is not obstructed by the bracket.
Repeat the steps with the other sensor on the opposite door track. Both lenses must face each other.
