Install The Door Control - Craftsman 139.53990DS Owner's Manual

iNSTALLATiON STEP 6
Irestall the Door Control
Locate door control within sight of door, at a
minimum height of 5 feet (1.5 m) where small
children cannot reach, away from moving parts of
door and door hardware. If installing into drywall, drill
5/32" holes and use the anchors provided. For
pre-wired installations (as in new home construction),
it may be mounted to a single gang box (Figure 1).
1. Strip 7/16" (11 mm) of insulation from one end of
bell wire and connect to the two screw terminals
on back of door control by color: white wire to
2 and white/red wire to the 1 (Figure 2).
2. Remove cover by gently prying at slot in top of the
cover with a small flat head screwdriver (Figure 3).
Fasten with 6ABxl" self-tapping screws (drywall
installation) or 6-32x1" machine screws (into gang
box) as follows:
• Install bottom screw, allowing 1/8" (3 mm) to
protrude above wall surface.
• Position bottom of door control on screw head
and slide down to secure. Adjust screw for
snug fit.
• Drill and install top screw with care to avoid
cracking plastic housing. Do not overtighten.
• Insert top tabs and snap on cover.
3. (For standard installation only) Run bell wire up
wall and across ceiling to motor unit. Use insulated
staples to secure wire in several places. Do not
pierce wire with a staple, creating a short or open
circuit.
4. Strip 7/16" (11 mm) of insulation from end of bell
wire. Connect bell wire to the quick-connect
terminals as follows: white to white and white/red
to red (Figure 4).
NOTE: When connecting multiple door controls to
the opener, twist same color wires together. Insert
wires into quick-connect holes: white to white and
red/white to red.
5. Position the antenna wire as shown.
6. Use tacks or staples to permanently attach
entrapment warning label to wall near door control,
and manual release/safety reverse test label in a
prominent location on inside of garage door.
NOTE: DO NOT connect power and operate opener
at this time. The trolley will travel to the full open
position but will not return to the close position until
the sensor beam is connected and properly aligned.
