ENTRAPMENT PROTECTION ACCESSORIES (OPTIONAL)
PHOTO EYES & SENSING EDGES
Sensing devices supplied for door industry type operators
with an isolated normally open (N.O.) dry contact output
are compatible with your operator. This includes through
beam and retro reflective photo eyes, and pneumatic and
electric edges. If your door does not have bottom safety
photo eyes or a sensing edge and you wish to add a safe-
ty device to your application, please contact your local
LiftMaster Authorized Dealer.
If not pre-installed by the door manufacturer, mount the
sensing edge on the door according to the instructions pro-
vided with the edge. The sensing edge may be electrical-
ly connected by either coiled cord or take-up reel.
Important Notes:
a) Proceed with Limit Switch Adjustments before making
any sensing edge wiring connections to operator as
described below.
b) Electrician must hardwire the junction box to the oper-
ator electrical box in accordance with local codes.
MAKE SURE THE LIMIT NUTS ARE POSITIONED BETWEEN THE LIMIT SWITCH ACTUATORS BEFORE
PROCEEDING WITH ADJUSTMENTS.
1. To adjust limit nuts depress retaining plate to allow
nut to spin freely. After adjustment, release plate
and ensure it seats fully in slots of both nuts.
2. To increase door travel, spin nut away from actu-
ator. To decrease door travel, spin limit nut
toward actuator.
3. Adjust open limit nut so that door will stop in open
position with the bottom of the door even with top
of door opening.
4. Repeat Steps 1 and 2 for close cycle. Adjust close
limit nut so that actuator is engaged as door fully
seats at the floor.
