WIRING CONNECTIONS

6. At Safe-T-Beam® source and sensor, attach wires at terminal screws.

Either wire may be connected to either terminal (Circuit is non-polar).

ﬁ ne). Bundle any excess slack and tape to top of powerhead

NOT DIRECTLY ABOVE LIGHT(S).

This opener includes parts and supplies needed for installation in MOST garages and on MOST garage doors. There are many variations of garages and

garage doors. A few additional parts and supplies may be needed for installation in YOUR garage and to YOUR garage door. While going over the checklist below,

used–does it extend far enough above the spring(s) to allow mounting of the Header Bracket. If not, or if you can’t tell–you will probably need a piece of 2" x 6"

need fasteners for mounting to the track itself or some other material? 4) Measure the height of your door. If it is taller than 7', you will need a Rail Extension Kit.

Is there an electrical outlet within approximately 3' of the point where the powerhead will be? If not you need to contact a licensed electrician.

Check condition of the door and all its associated hardware: Tracks, springs, hinges, rollers. Is anything loose or appear worn? If so, call a trained profes-

sional for an evaluation and repairs if needed. DO NOT ATTEMPT TO ADJUST SPRINGS OR THEIR ATTACHED PARTS!

Operate the door manually. Does it move freely and smoothly? Check the balance of the door by lifting it by hand approximately halfway open and let go. It

should stay put or move very slowly. If not, call a trained professional for repairs.

Remove all ropes and remove or disable all locks connected to the garage door. It is also recommended tha T-handles be removed. Closed loop lifting

handles with no protruding parts can remain.
