• DO NOT apply power to operator until instructed to do so.
• The Genie® Company recommends that line voltage
wiring be performed by a qualified electrician.
• Be sure that electrical power has been disconnected from
the input power wires being connected to the operator
prior to handling these wires. An appropriate lock-out /
tag-out procedure is recommended.
• Line voltage wiring must meet all local building codes.
• Make sure operator voltage, phase and frequency
nameplate ratings are identical to the job site line
voltage ratings.
• Input power wiring must be properly sized for the
operators amperage rating lo
cated on the nameplate.
• To r
educe the risk of electric shock, make sure the chassis
of this unit is properly grounded.
1) Remove LINE VOLTAGE INPUT PLUG and install proper
fittings and 1/2"conduit.
2) Route proper LINE VOLTAGE wires into operator.
3) Locate LINE INPUT terminals on circuit board. Using
correct connectors, attach wires to LINE INPUTS, and GROUND
terminal. Fig. 2.
