The infrared safety sensors were an option on this opener. Back then it was not a standard.

Try turning up the down force. It is on the side of the opener. This turns up the power the opener uses to operate the opener. Do not turn this all the way up. Do a 2x4 safety reversal test afterward, especially since you don't have sensors. If this does not work for you invest in a newer system. If you have kids or pets then I would surely get a new one. Thanks BB

This is a great place to go for advice, especially if you're low on funds and you could resolve the problem before calling and paying a service call, if it's an easy fix. I'm glad you are there for me.
