Connect Power

To avoid installation diffi culties, do not
run the door operator at this time.
To reduce the risk of electric shock, your
door operator has a grounding type plug
with a third grounding pin. This plug will
only fi t into a grounding type outlet. If the
plug doesn't fi t into the outlet you have,
contact a qualifi ed electrician to install the
proper outlet.
There are two options for connecting
power:
OPTION A: TYPICAL WIRING
1. Plug in the door operator into a
grounded outlet.
2. DO NOT run door operator at this
time.
OPTION B: PERMANENT WIRING
CONNECTION
If permanent wiring is required by
your local code, refer to the following
procedure.
To make a permanent connection through
the 7/8" hole in the back of the door
operator (according to local code):
1. Be sure power is NOT connected to
the door operator, and disconnect
power to circuit.
2. Remove the door operator from the
torsion bar, remove cover screws and
set the cover aside.
3. Cut the line cord 6" (15.2 cm) above
the strain relief.
4. Squeeze the strain relief and push
into motor unit, then remove the
strain relief from the line cord.
5. Install a 90° conduit (not provided)
or fl ex cable adapter (not provided) to
the 7/8" hole. Reinstall door operator
to torsion bar.
6. Run wires through conduit, cut to
proper length and strip insulation.
7. Strip 1/2" (1.3 cm) of insulation from
the existing black, white and green
wires.
8. Connect the line to the black wire and
neutral to the white wire with wire
nuts (not provided). Connect ground
wire to the green ground screw.
9. Properly secure wires under plastic
ties so that they do not come into
contact with moving parts.
10. Reinstall cover.
To prevent possible SERIOUS INJURY or DEATH from electrocution or fi re:
• Be sure power is NOT connected to the operator, and disconnect power to circuit
BEFORE removing cover to establish permanent wiring connection.
• Door installation and wiring MUST be in compliance with ALL local electrical and
building codes.
• NEVER use an extension cord, 2-wire adapter or change plug in ANY way to make it
fi t outlet. Be sure the operator is grounded.
