Step  12:

  

Install a 

Rough Service

 lamp bulb (75 Watt maximum) firmly 

in the light socket.  Light bulbs in door openers are subject to vibration 
during normal operation which may shorten their life spans.  Rough Service 
bulbs, available at most hardware stores, are recommended. Fit Light 
Diffuser tabs into the panel tabs as shown.  

STEP 11: Connecting The Electrical Power

  

Consult the label on the rear panel of the Opener to 

determine its proper working voltage.  Normally it will be marked for 115V, 60 cycle operation.  (If it is an export 
model designed for 220V, 50 cycle operation, the label will clearly indicate this.) The Opener must be plugged 
into a properly grounded receptacle within 3 FT of the Power Unit.   

A GFI Type receptacle is recommended.

  

Do not use 2-prong adapters and do not use extension cords for anything more than temporary hook-up and testing 
purposes.  Receptacle wiring should be No. 14 or heavier, and 

must be in compliance with local building and 

electrical codes.

  

If local codes require permanent wiring, a GFI type circuit breaker is recommended to protect the line.  Remove 
the Strain Relief Bushing and withdraw the Line Cord from the rear of the Power Unit to expose the three 
insulated connectors.  Cut the wire at the rubber jacket of the Line Cord and wire in permanently, employing 
proper wiring practices.  Discard Strain Relief.  It is not used with permanent wiring.  

Using the two wires (black & white) that were left the 

line cord was cut, splice in the permanent connections

WARNING 

C: INSTALLING THE OPERATOR 

Slide door arm and trolley toward door; connect 
the tube assembly to the door bracket with the 
3/8” diameter bolt and locking nut, tightening 
enough to allow for door arm pivot.  Do not 
overtighten the locking nut. 
 
Press door control button and run opener through 
full open and close cycles, adjusting the limit 
stops as required to fully open and close the door.  
At full closed position, the door arm assembly 
should compress approximately one inch. 

HOW TO OPERATE THE DOOR MANUALLY - 

MANUAL RELEASE DISCONNECT 

The door should be fully closed, if possible, before 
using the manual disconnect.  Weak or broken 
springs could allow an open door to fall rapidly.  
Property damage or serious personal injury could 
result.  Do not use the manual release handle to pull 
the door open or closed. 
 

Your opener is equipped with a manual release recessed 
trolley-type disconnect system, enabling manual 
operation of the garage door during a power failure. 
 
The trolley is disconnected from the chain by pulling 
down on the red release handle, allowing the garage 
door to be operated manually. 

 
The trolley will 
automatically 
reconnect when 
power is 
restored and the 
door is 
activated. 
 
If the manual release is used, close the door before 
reactivating the opener. 
 

NOTE:  Outside keylock manual releases are an 
available accessory and are recommended for 
garages without a service entrance.
