IMPORTANTINFORMATIONABOUTTHESAFETYREVERSING

SENSOR

When properly connected and aligned, the sensor will detectan

obstacle in the path of its electronic beam.The sending eye (with

an green indicator light) transmits an invisible light beam to the

receivingeye (with a green indicator light). If an obstruction breaks

the light beam while the door is closing, the door will stop and

reverseto full open position, and the opener lights will flash

10 times.

The units must be installed inside the garage so that the sending

and receivingeyesface each other across the door, no more than

6" (15 cm) above the floor. Either can be installed on the left or

right of the door as long as the sun never shines directly into the

receivingeye lens.

The mounting bracketsare designed to clip onto thetrack of

sectional garagedoors without additional hardware.

Besure power is NOTconnected to the garagedoor opener

BEFOREinstalling the safety reversing sensor.

To prevent SERIOUSINJURYor DEATHfrom a closing garage

door:

• Correctly connect and align the safety reversing sensor. This

requiredsafety device MUST NOTbedisabled.

• Install the safety reversingsensor so beam is NO HIGHER

than 6" (15 cm) above garagefloor.

If it is necessaryto mount the units on the wall, the brackets must

be securely fastened to a solid surface such as the wall framing.

Extension brackets (see accessories)are available if needed. If

installing in masonry construction, add a piece of wood at each

location to avoid drilling extra holes in masonry if repositioning is

necessary.

The invisible light beam path must be unobstructed. No partof the

garagedoor (or door tracks, springs, hinges, rollers or other

hardware) may interrupt the beamwhile the door is closing.
