4 WALL CONTROL INSTALLATION

WARNING

Verify there is no power to the operator before installing wall control wires.

CAUTION

Use of any wall control other than the type supplied will prevent the light from working and could cause the door to operate on its own.

Cut or pinched wires can cause the wall control to stop working. When using the insulated staples, make sure you only pound them in as far as needed to hold the wire snugly.

1.Finding the mounting location.

•Pick a convenient location for mounting wall control.

–Location you choose should be in direct sight of door.

–It should be at least 5’ above floor to prevent small children from operating door.
