The remote control transmitter
The opener must learn the code of any new trans-
mitter. Page 33 explains how to program your garage
door opener and how to erase all codes if required.
Self service of your receiver and transmitter(s) is not
recommended. If service is needed, contact your
nearest Sears Service Center.
The transmitter battery
The green test light should glow and the opener
should operate when the transmitter is activated.
If the green test light is
dim or does not come on,
replace the battery.
The 12V battery should produce power for at least
a year.
Dispose of your old battery properly.
Once a Month
Manually operate door. If it is unbalanced or
binding, call for professional garage door service.
Check to be sure door opens & closes fully.
Adjust limits and/or force if necessary. (See pages
28 and 29.)
Repeat the safety reverse test. Make any
necessary adjustments (See page 30).
Twice a Year
Check chain tension. Disconnect trolley first.
Adjust if necessary (See page 11).
Once a Year
Oil door rollers, bearings and hinges. The opener
does not require additional lubrication.

Weather conditions may cause some minor
changes in door operation requiring some re-
adjustments, particularly during the first year of
operation.
Pages 28 and 29 refer to the limit and force
adjustments. Only a screwdriver is required. Follow
the instructions carefully.
Repeat the safety reverse test (page 30) after any
adjustment of limits or force.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
To reduce the risk of severe injury or death to persons:
1. READ AND FOLLOW ALL INSTRUCTIONS.
2. Do not permit children either to operate or to play with the opener. Keep remote control in a
location inaccessible to children.
3. Operate opener only when the door is in full view and free from any obstruction. Keep the door in
sight until it is completely closed. NO ONE SHOULD CROSS THE PATH OF THE MOVING DOOR.
4. Check safety reversal system monthly. See page 30. The garage door
MUST reverse on contact
with a 2x4 board laid flat on the floor. If an adjustment is made to either the force or the limit of
travel, both adjustments may be needed and the safety reversal system must be checked.
Failure
to properly adjust the opener may result in severe injury or death.
5. If possible, use the emergency release only when the door is in a closed position. Caution should
be taken whenever the disconnect cord is actuated with the door open.
Weak or broken springs
may cause the door to fall rapidly, causing injury or death to persons.
6. KEEP GARAGE DOORS PROPERLY BALANCED. See page 3.
An improperly balanced door may not
reverse when required and could result in severe injury or death. Repairs to cables, spring
assemblies and other hardware must be made by a professional garage door person.
7. Disconnect the electric power to the garage door opener before making any repairs or removing the
covers.
