NOTE: Three (3) piece rail assemblies are for a 7
foot high door.

Clear a workspace area to unpack and organize box
and contents for assembly.

1. There are 4 boxes inside the carton. Each box is

numbered 1 - 4. Note that some operators will
contain the same parts and be packaged with
fewer boxes.
Carefully remove the three
internal boxes (Labeled #1, 2, and 3) and place
them on the floor for easy access. (Fig. 1-1).
These boxes contain assembly parts and the
contents are organized by assembly tasks. For
quick reference inside the lid of each box there is
a label illustrating the components inside.

2. Remove the motor power head and place it on

the floor for later use. Remove box #4 and
place it on the floor for later use.

NOTE: For 1-piece rail—skip to POWER HEAD &

To reduce the risk of severe injury or death:

5. Do NOT connect the operator to source of power

until instructed to do so.

able to reach it, and

• Away from all moving parts of the door.

7. Install the Entrapment WARNING Label next to the

control button in a prominent location. Install the
Emergency Release Marking on or next to the
emergency release.

8. After installing the opener, the door must reverse when

it contacts a 1-1/2 inch high object (or a 2 x 4 board laid
flat) on the floor.

To reduce the risk of injury to persons or
damage to property - Use this operator only
with sectional doors.
