Frequently Asked Questions - 041D80061 LIFT-MASTER

How to program the limit switches of the opener?

Press and hold the SET button until the UP button flashes. Use UP and DOWN to position the door to the open position, then press SET. The DOWN button flashes, use UP/DOWN to adjust the close position, press SET. Finally, press UP then DOWN to finalize.

What to do if the door does not close or flashes 10 times?

This indicates a problem with the safety reversal sensors. Check that they are aligned and unobstructed. The sensors must be less than 15 cm from the floor and their LEDs must be lit.

How to test the safety reversal system?

Place a 3.8 cm (2x4 flat) board under the open door. Close the door with the remote. The door should reverse upon contact with the board. Test monthly.

How to adjust belt or chain tension?

For a belt, tighten the nut until the spring measures approximately 3.18 cm. For type A chain, the chain should be 6 mm above the rail at midpoint; for type B, 13 mm.

Can I replace the motor myself?

Yes, the motor kit is designed to be replaced. Disconnect the power, remove the old motor, install the new one by reconnecting the harnesses and reassembling the gear and belt/chain.

Does the opener work without a battery?

Yes, it works on mains power. The backup battery allows operation during a power outage.

How to disengage the door manually?

Pull the emergency release handle (often a red cord) to disengage the trolley and open/close the door manually.

What to do if limit switch programming times out (5 flashes)?

Programming took too long. Restart the steps by holding the SET button until UP flashes, then perform adjustments quickly.

How to connect the wires to the logic board?

Use the quick-connect terminals. To release a wire, press the tab with a screwdriver. Ensure the harness pins face the end panel.

How to clean and maintain the opener?

Disconnect the power before cleaning. Wipe the exterior with a soft dry cloth. Do not use chemicals. Regularly check sensors and belt/chain tension.

ADJUSTMENTS

PROGRAM THE TRAVEL

Your garage door opener is designed with electronic controls to make setup and adjustments easy. The adjustments allow you to program where the door will stop in the open (UP) and close (DOWN) position. The electronic controls sense the amount of force required to open and close the door. The force is adjusted automatically when you program the travel and cannot be changed.

PROGRAMMING BUTTONS UP Button Adjustment Button DOWN Button

Setting the UP position:

1. Press and hold the Adjustment Button until the UP Button begins to flash and/or a beep is heard.
2. Press and hold the UP Button until the door is in the desired UP position.
   NOTE: The UP and DOWN Buttons can be used to move the door up and down as needed.
3. Once the door is in the desired UP position press and release the Adjustment Button. The garage door opener lights will flash twice and the DOWN Button will begin to flash.

Setting the DOWN position:

1. Press and hold the DOWN Button until the door is in the desired DOWN position. NOTE: The UP and DOWN Buttons can be used to move the door up and down as needed.
2. Once the door is in the desired DOWN position press and release the Adjustment Button. The garage door opener lights will flash twice and the UP Button will begin to flash.
3. Press and release the UP Button. When the door travels to the programmed UP position, the DOWN Button will begin to flash.
4. Press and release the DOWN Button. The door will travel to the programmed DOWN position. Programming is complete.

* If the garage door opener lights are flashing 5 times during the steps for Program the Travel, the programming has timed out. If the garage door opener lights are flashing 10 times during the steps for Program the Travel, the safety reversing sensors are misaligned or obstructed (refer to owner's manual). When the sensors are aligned and unobstructed, cycle the door through a complete up and down cycle using the remote control or the UP and DOWN buttons. Programming is complete. If you are unable to operate the door up and down, repeat the steps for Programming the Travel.

WARNING

Without a properly installed safety reversal system, persons (particularly small children) could be SERIOUSLY INJURED or KILLED by a closing garage door.

• Safety reversal system MUST be tested every month.
• After ANY adjustments are made, the safety reversal system MUST be tested. Door MUST reverse on contact with 1-1/2" (3.8 cm) high object (or 2x4 laid fl at) on floor.

CAUTION

To prevent damage to vehicles, be sure fully open door provides adequate clearance.

ADJUSTMENTS

1. With the door fully open, place a 1-1/2 inch (3.8 cm) board (or a 2x4 laid flat) on the floor, centered under the garage door.
2. Press the remote control push button to close the door. The door MUST reverse when it makes contact with the board.

If the door stops and does not reverse on the obstruction, the travel needs to be adjusted (refer to Program the Travel).

Repeat the test. When the door reverses upon contact with the 1-1/2 inch (3.8 cm) board, remove the board and open/close the door 3 or 4 times to test the adjustment.

If the test continues to fail, call a trained door systems technician.

TEST THE PROTECTOR SYSTEM®

1. Open the door. Place an obstruction in the path of the door.
2. Press the remote control push button to close the door. The door will not move more than an inch (2.5 cm), and the garage door opener lights will flash 10 times.

The garage door opener will not close from a remote control if the LED in either safety reversing sensor is off (alerting you to the fact that the sensor is misaligned or obstructed).

If the garage door opener closes the door when the safety reversing sensor is obstructed (and the sensors are no more than 6 inches [15 cm] above the floor), call for a trained door systems technician.
