    • With the overhead door closed, position the magnet on the lower right or left side of the door with the magnet housing as close to the surface as possible.
    • Mark the mounting hole locations for the magnet.
    • Mount the magnet on the door.
    • Connect the switch leads to an ohm meter and raise the door enough to position the switch on the floor under and aligned with the magnet housing. Continue to raise the door until the meter indicates the switch is open. Measure the distance from the floor to the bottom of the magnet housing and note the measurement. Deduct an additional ½”. This
    will be the maximum depth to bury the switch. Recommended operation gap is up to 1-1/2”.
    • Mark the position of the switch on the floor and remove the concrete to form a channel ½” width X ¾” depth.
    • With the switch connected to an ohm meter, place the switch in the channel aligned with the magnet housing on the door and confirm the switch is operating correctly.
    • Apply concrete patch over the switch and flex cable.
    • Retest the switch by raising and lowering the door to confirm the correct operation.
