General Information: Mounting instructions
for thepower
unit must,of necessity,
be somewhat
general
in naturedueto
the many different ceiling designsfound in variousresidential
andgeographical areas. Custom-designed garages
may havea
finishedceiling of gypsum,
sheetboard,
or finishedtongueand
groove
stylelumber. In otherinstances,unfinished
ceilingtypes
will haveexposed overheadwoodbeams,2" x 4", or 2" x 6"
rafters,
joists,etc. Due to theseconstructionvariances,
every
powerunit installationcouldbe slightly different with different
circumstancesarisingfor each
specific
mountingapplication.
Forfinishedceilings,a sectionof 1" x 6" boardcanbesecured
to spanthedistancebetween
ceilingrafters. Thepowerunit can
thenbe mounteddirectly to theboardusingthemountingangle
andstraps.Ifnecessary,
lagscrews,longerthan
those
furnished
with theopener,or expansionboltscanalsobeused. Basiccar-
pentryprocedures,
coupled
with alittle pre-planning,
shouldbe
all thatis required to mountthepowerunit. If needed,a local
carpentercanbe contactedto providewhateverassistance
is
required.

The main concernin mounting the power unit is
that theinstallation
besecurely
mountedfor oper-
ational strength,rigidity and safety. Mounting
straps can be easilybent and cut to conform to ryhatever
conliguration
that mayberequired. SeeFigs
18
and 19.
A. Mountthepower
unit to anoverhead
beamor ceiling. See
Fig.20 for typical
mounting
suggestions.Formounting,use
lagscrews,hex
headbolts,hexnutsandlockwashers.
(Lag

adjustable
wrench andll2" socketwrencharerequired.
Additional 2x 4'smaybeneeded
for proper installation.
B. Oncepowerheadis securelymounted,removeall supports
andladders. Operate
thedoor manuallyseveral
timesto
ensurethat the door travelsfreely anddoesnot contactany
part of the tubes. Top pdge of door shouldclear the tube
sections
by atleast
oneinch.
Do not allow door to hit the traveler.

Before beginning beam sensor mounting, identify
which side of the garage door opening (if any) the sun
is "likely" to shine into. Since sunlight may cause
undesirable operation, you should plan to mount the
small sending unit (not the receiving unit) on the side
of the door opening exposed to the sun.
Page14
A. Begin by attachingthe sendingandreceiving units to the
mounting bracketsusing the four thumb screws
provided.
The thumb screwsgo through the bracket and threadinto
thetwo holeson thebottom of the units. Do not tishten at

Select

possible
the sending
and receiving units shouldbe
mounted at least 12 inches inside the door opening to
minimize anyinterference
by thesun.SeeFigure 31'
Using the wood screws
provided, attachthe receiving unit
to the wall. In some
installations
it may be necessaryto
attachwooden spacers
to the wall to insure that thebeam
will clear the door tracks. Expansionbolts (not supplied)
may be requiredto attachbrackets
to walls constructed
of
materials
otherthanwood or gypsum.
The beam must be mounted as closeto the door
track or inside edgeol'thc door as possible
to
of'f'er
maximum entrapment protection.
Do not tighten the mounting screws
atthis time. Carefully
uncoil the wire thatis connected
to the small sending
unit.
Run the wires up the wall across
the top of the door
openinganddown the other sideof the wall. Temporarily
tack thewiresin placeusingthestaples
provided.
DO NOT USE A STAPLE GUN.
Be sure to run the wires in a location where they will
not interfere with the operation of the door.

E. If wires must be lengthened,usewire nuts or a suitable
connector.One wire hasa white stripe.Be sureto connect

F. Mount the sendingunit the same

provided, but
approximatelyone (1) inch higher. Make surethe sending
and receiving units point toward each other and are not
obstructedby thedoortracksor otherobjects.
Carefully loop and secur€ any additional wire in a safe
location. Do not staplethrough wire.
Uncoil the remainingloop of wire with the small 2-pin
