CONTROL WIRING (con't) Radio Controls On all models with type B2 control wiring, a terminal bracket marked R1 R2 R3 is located on the outside of the electrical enclosure. All standard radio control receivers (single channel residential type) may be mounted to this bracket. The operator will then open a fully closed door, close a fully open door, and reverse a closing door from the radio transmitter. However, for complete door control from a transmitter, a commercial three-channel radio set (with connections for OPEN/CLOSE/STOP) is recommended. WARNING DO NOT USE RADIO CONTROLS WITH YOUR OPERATOR UNLESS YOU HAVE INSTALLED SOME TYPE OF ENTRAPMENT PROTECTION DEVICE. THE USE OF RADIO CONTROLS PRESENTS POTENTIAL HAZARDS DUE TO THE USER'S ABILITY TO OPEN OR CLOSE THE DOOR WHEN OUT OF SIGHT OF THE DOOR. IN ADDITION, IF A SINGLE CHANNEL CONTROL IS USED, THE USER WILL NOT BE ABLE TO STOP THE DOOR FROM THE TRANSMITTER. Additional Access Control Equipment Locate any additional access control equipment as desired (but so that the door will be in clear sight of the person operating the equipment), and connect to the terminal block in the electrical enclosure as shown on the FIELD WIRING CONNECTIONS diagram. Any control with a normally (N.O.) isolated output contact may be connected in parallel with the OPEN button. More than one device may be connected in this manner. Use 16 gauge wire or larger for all controls. DO NOT USE THE CONTROL CIRCUIT TRANSFORMER (24VAC) IN THE OPERATOR TO POWER ANY ACCESS CONTROL EQUIPMENT OTHER THAN A STANDARD RESIDENTIAL TYPE RADIO RECEIVER. External Interlock Switch The operator has a terminal connection for an external interlock switch. This switch must be a normally closed (N.C.) two-wire device with a contact rating of at least 3 amps at 24VAC. When such a switch is connected as shown on the FIELD WIRING CONNECTIONS diagram, the control circuit will be disabled when the switch is actuated, thereby preventing electrical operation of the door from the control devices. CLUTCH ADJUSTMENT 1. Remove cotterpin from nut on the clutch shaft. 2. Back off clutch nut until there is very little tension on the clutch spring. 3. Tighten clutch nut gradually until there is just enough tension to permit the operator to move the door smoothly but to allow the clutch to slip if the door is obstructed. When the clutch is properly adjusted, it should generally be possible to stop the door by hand during travel. 4. Reinstall Cotterpin. CAUTION: The adjustable friction clutch is NOT an automatic reversing device. An electric or pneumatic reversing edge can be added to bottom edge of door if desired.

CONTROL WIRING (con’t)
Radio Controls
On all models with type B2 control wiring, a terminal
bracket marked R1 R2 R3 is located on the outside of the
electrical enclosure. All standard radio control receivers
(single channel residential type) may be mounted to this
bracket. The operator will then open a fully closed door,
close a fully open door, and reverse a closing door from
the radio transmitter. However, for complete door control
from a transmitter, a commercial three-channel radio set
(with connections for OPEN/CLOSE/STOP) is
recommended.
Additional Access Control Equipment
Locate any additional access control equipment as desired (but so that the door will be in clear sight of the person
operating the equipment), and connect to the terminal block in the electrical enclosure as shown on the FIELD WIRING
CONNECTIONS diagram. Any control with a normally (N.O.) isolated output contact may be connected in parallel with the
OPEN button. More than one device may be connected in this manner. Use 16 gauge wire or larger for all controls. DO
NOT USE THE CONTROL CIRCUIT TRANSFORMER (24VAC) IN THE OPERATOR TO POWER ANY ACCESS
CONTROL EQUIPMENT OTHER THAN A STANDARD RESIDENTIAL TYPE RADIO RECEIVER.
External Interlock Switch
The operator has a terminal connection for an external interlock switch. This switch must be a normally closed (N.C.)
two-wire device with a contact rating of at least 3 amps at 24VAC. When such a switch is connected as shown on the FIELD
WIRING CONNECTIONS diagram, the control circuit will be disabled when the switch is actuated, thereby preventing
electrical operation of the door from the control devices.
WARNING
DO NOT USE RADIO CONTROLS WITH YOUR
OPERATOR UNLESS YOU HAVE INSTALLED SOME
TYPE OF ENTRAPMENT PROTECTION DEVICE. THE
USE OF RADIO CONTROLS PRESENTS POTENTIAL
HAZARDS DUE TO THE USER’S ABILITY TO OPEN
OR CLOSE THE DOOR WHEN OUT OF SIGHT OF
THE DOOR. IN ADDITION, IF A SINGLE CHANNEL
CONTROL IS USED, THE USER WILL NOT BE ABLE
TO STOP THE DOOR FROM THE TRANSMITTER.
CLUTCH
ADJUSTMENT
1. Remove cotterpin from nut on the clutch shaft.
2. Back off clutch nut until there is very little tension on the
clutch spring.
3. Tighten clutch nut gradually until there is just enough
tension to permit the operator to move the door
smoothly but to allow the clutch to slip if the door is
obstructed.
When the clutch is properly adjusted, it
should generally be possible to stop the door by hand
during travel.
4. Reinstall Cotterpin.
CAUTION: The adjustable friction clutch is NOT an
automatic reversing device. An electric or pneumatic
reversing edge can be added to bottom edge of door if
desired.
