NOTE: If you are installing the garage door opener on a one-piece door, visit www.liftmaster.com for
installation instructions.
1.1 Close the door and mark the inside vertical centerline ofthe garage door.
1.2 Extend the line onto the header wall above the door.
Youcan fasten the headerbracket within 4 feet (1.22 m) of the left or right of the door
center only if a torsion spring orcenter bearingplate is in the way; or you can attach it to
the ceilingwhenclearance is minimal. (It may be mounted on the wallupside down if
necessary,togain approximately 1/2" (1 cm).
If you need to install the header bracket on a 2x4 (on wall or ceiling),use lag screws (not
provided) to securely fasten the 2x4 to structural supports.
1.3 Open your door to the highest point of travel as shown. Draw an intersecting horizontal line on
the header wall 2" (5 cm) above the high point. This heightwill provide travel clearance for the
top edge of the door.
NOTE: If the total number of inches exceeds the height available in your garage, use the maximum
height possible, or refer to page 8 for ceiling installation.
