User Information
Like any other electrical appliance or machine, it is important to familiarise yourself with the safety
guidelines which are applicable to automated garage doors. These are contained at the beginning and
throughout this booklet.
✓ Only operate the garage door when in full view to ensure people, objects and pets remain away from
the door whilst it is moving.
✓ Keep all controls away from children and do not allow them to play with the door.
✓ Regularly check the door and have it maintained and serviced as per the manufacturers’ instructions.
✓ Safety beams or an equivalent safety device are recommended for any automated door for additional
safety.

Installation & Operating Instructions V7.09/19
SD800 - Sectional Garage Door Opener
Note: It is highly recommended that safety beams are included with all installations. Correctly installed safety
beams will prevent the door from closing if a person or object is located within the door area. If the beam is
broken during the door’s downward travel it will reverse back to the open position.
This accessory must be used for all installations where the closing force is greater than 400N (40kg
of force) as measured at the bottom of the door.
▪ This appliance is not intended for use by children or persons with reduced physical, sensory or mental
capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless they have been given supervision or instruction
by a person responsible for their safety.
▪ Do not wear watches, rings or loose clothing while installing or servicing a garage door opener. Ensure
that gloves, safety goggles and suitable protective clothing is worn where appropriate.
▪ The opener must not be installed in a wet or damp space exposed to weather.
▪ The opener must not be used on a door with a wicket door (a door within a door).
▪ Keep garage door balanced. Do not let the opener compensate for a binding or sticking garage door.
Binding, sticking or unbalanced doors must be repaired before installing this opener.
▪ To avoid serious personal injury from entanglement, remove all ropes, chains and locks connected to the
garage door before installing the door opener.
▪ Installation and wiring must be in accordance with your local building and electrical codes.
▪ Install the wireless remote control (transmitter) in a location where the garage door is visible, at a height
of no less than 1.5m and out of reach of children. Do not allow children to operate push buttons or
transmitters. Serious personal injury from a closing garage door may result from misuse of the opener.
▪ Permanently fasten the Warning Labels in prominent places, adjacent to wall controls and on manual
release cord as a reminder of safe operating procedures.
▪ Ensure that the safety reverse system is tested every month. The garage door must reverse on contact
with a 40mm high object placed on the floor. Adjust if necessary and repeat test. Failure to adjust
properly may result in serious personal injury from a closing garage door.
▪ Disconnect electric power to the door opener before making repairs.
▪ If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer, its service agent or similarly
qualified persons in order to avoid hazard.
▪ Frequently examine the door installation paying particular attention to the cables, springs and mountings
for signs of wear, damage or imbalance. Springs and hardware are under extreme tension and a fault
can cause serious personal injury. Do not use if repair or adjustment is needed.
▪ Ensure that the opener is operated only when door is in full view, free of obstructions and the opener is
properly adjusted. No one should enter or leave the garage while the door is in motion.
▪ Do not allow children to play near the door, or with door controls. Keep remotes away from children.
▪ The door may operate unexpectedly, therefore do not allow anything to stay in the path of the door.
▪ SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS- it is important for the safety of persons to follow all instructions.
An emergency key release must be installed if there is no pedestrian door or other access into the garage.

STEP 1.
Install sensor brackets no higher than 100mm from the floor on each side of door (behind tracks), ensuring
they do not obstruct the door movement, see Fig 1. Ensure that the lenses are aligned. One sensor is a
sending sensor and one sensor is a receiving sensor. Avoid positioning the sensors in direct sunlight as this
could interfere with the operation of the safety beams.
STEP 2.
Note: Ensure power is disconnected from opener before continuing.
Run the wire from both sensors back to the opener ensuring that they are well supported and ensuring
they don’t interfere with the movement of the door. Cut wires to correct length and strip back
approximately 10mm. Twist both white wires together and insert into one of the Safety (PE) Beam
terminals. Twist both red wires together and insert into the other Safety (PE) Beam terminal. Place the
mini jumper on the jumper terminal, see Fig 2. If sensors are correctly aligned both red and green light will
be lit and the safety beam installation is now complete.
