Installing Cable Keepers - Genie Pro Series Installation, Programming, & Operation

Operating a door with frayed or broken counterbalance lift
cables can result in severe or fatal injury.
Contact a qualified door service company to replace frayed
or broken cables before installing cable keepers.
Do not attempt to loosen or remove bottom corner brackets.
They are under extreme spring tension and can cause
severe or fatal injury.
1. Carefully inspect the counterbalance lift cables on the door. If they are worn, frayed or broken, contact a qualified door service
company to replace the counterbalance lift cables before installing the cable keepers.
2. Push spacer onto the shaft between the short stem track roller and the bottom corner bracket. Use an additional spacer if
needed to achieve a minimum of 1/2" clearance.
3. If there is less than 1/2" clearance, loosen the lag screws attaching the track to the wall and adjust the track for the 1/2"
clearance. Re-tighten the lag screws.
4. Position the right hand (black) cable keeper assembly directly above the garage door bottom corner bracket.
5. The cable keeper assembly must extend 1/8" past the end of the door section. Ensure there is no more than 4-1/2" from the
bottom edge of the door to bottom of cable keeper.
6. IMPORTANT: RIGHT AND LEFT HAND IS ALWAYS DETERMINED FROM INSIDE THE BUILDING LOOKING OUT.
7. Fasten the cable keeper assembly with (2) 1/4" - 22 x 11/16" self drilling screws (wood doors will use (2) 1/4" x 1" lag screws).
Once the cable keeper assembly is secured to the bottom section, place the plastic sleeve over the counterbalance lift cable and
then rotate the cable keeper arm upward and attach it to the plastic sleeve.
8. Repeat the same process for the left hand (Red) cable keeper assembly.
NOTE: It is recommended that wood doors be pre-drilled with 1/8" pilot holes prior to fastening.
IMPORTANT NOTE: Operate door manually full open to full close and watch keeper to ensure that it does not contact door track.
Adjust as necessary.
