120 VAC AND 240 VAC
1
Turn off the AC power from the main power source circuit breaker.
2
Run the AC power wires to the junction box on the operator.
3
Remove the junction box cover.
4
Connect the green wire to the earth ground rod and AC ground using a wire
nut. NOTE: The earth ground rod can be grounded to the chassis.
5
Connect the white wire to NEUTRAL using a wire nut.
6
Connect the black wire to HOT using a wire nut.
7
Replace the junction box cover. Ensure the wires are not pinched.
SOLAR PANEL(S)
NOT PROVIDED. SEE ACCESSORIES.
Solar Application requirements:
• A minimum of two 10W solar panels in series
• Two 33AH batteries with new wire harness (Model K94-36596). The standard
7AH batteries cannot be used.
• A heater cannot be used with a solar application
For solar applications DO NOT use the expansion board and the wireless
dual gate feature. These features will substantially decrease the cycle
rate and standby time of the operator. We recommend LiftMaster low power
draw accessories to minimize power draw, refer to accessory page.
The solar panel(s) must be located in an open area clear of obstructions and shading
for the entire day. The gate operator is not supported in northern climates where
temperatures reach below -4˚F. This is due to cold weather and a reduced number of
hours of sunlight during the winter months. Cycle rate may vary from solar chart for
areas that reach below 32˚F. Solar panels should be cleaned on a regular basis for
best performance to ensure proper operation.
1
Locate the J15 plug on the control board and unplug it from the control board
(it will not be used).
2
Set the new 33AH batteries in the operator.
3
Connect a jumper between the positive (+) terminal of one battery to the
negative terminal (-) of the other battery.
4
Route the battery wires (the longer set of wires) from the J15 plug (new wire
harness) through the back of the electrical box. Connect the red wire to the
positive (+) terminal of one battery. Connect the black wire to the negative (-)
terminal of the other battery.
5
Connect the red wire (+) from one solar panel to the black wire (-) of the other
solar panel.
6
Connect the shorter red wire (+) from the J15 plug (new wire harness) labeled
DC Power to the red wire on one solar panel. Connect the shorter black (-) wire
from the J15 plug (new wire harness) labeled DC Power to the black wire from
the other solar panel.
7
Plug the J15 plug (new wire harness) into the J15 input on the control board.
NOTE: You may see a small spark when plugging the J15 plug into the board.
Proceed to the Dual Gate section (if applicable) or proceed to the Adjustment section.
