screwdriver tip (1) into one of the slots of the nut ring (2) and brace it
firmly against the header sleeve. Place an open end wrench (3) on
the square end of the spring nut (4), slightly rotate nut about 1/4 turn
clockwise until nut ring (2) is released against header sleeve (5). This
sets spring to optimum chain tension. chain may slip off sprocket if
chain is too loose. If chain does slip re-tighten spring nut by turing nut
clockwise 1/2 turn. Do NOT overtighten chain.
INSTALLATION SECTION
Wear protective goggles when working overhead to protect your
eyes from injury.
Disengage all existing garage door locks to avoid damage to the
garage door.
To avoid serious personal injury from entanglement, remove all
ropes connected to the garage door before installing the opener.
It is recommended that the opener be installed 2,1m (7 feet) or more
above the floor where space permits.
12
Position the Header Bracket
The header bracket must be rigidly fastened to a structural
support of the garage. Reinforce the wall or ceiling with a 40mm
(1-1/2") board if necessary. Failure to comply may result in
improper operation of safety reverse system.
You can attach the header bracket either to the header wall (1) or to
the ceiling (3). Follow the instructions which will work best for your
particular requirements.
With the door closed, mark the vertical centerline (2) of the garage
door. Extend line onto header wall above the door.
Open door to highest point of travel. Draw an intersecting horizontal
line (4) on header wall 5cm (2") above high point to provide travel
clearance for top edge of door.
13
Install the Header Bracket
NOTE: Refer to vertical center and horizontal lines created in
step 12 for proper placement or header bracket.
A. Wall Mount: Center the bracket (1) on the vertical guideline (2)
with the bottom edge of the bracket on the horizontal line (4)
(with the arrow pointing toward the ceiling). Mark all of the bracket
holes (5). Drill 4,5mm (3/16") pilot holes and fasten the bracket
with wood screws (3). For concrete mount, use concrete anchors
provided.
B. Ceiling Mount: Extend vertical guideline (2) onto the ceiling.
Center the bracket (1) on the vertical mark no more than 150mm
(6") from the wall. Make sure the arrow is pointing toward the wall.
Mark all of the bracket holes (5). Drill 4,5mm (3/16") pilot holes and
fasten the bracket with wood screws (3). For concrete ceiling
mount, use concrete anchors (6) provided.
14
Attach Rail to Header Bracket
Position opener on garage floor below the header bracket. Use
packing material to protect the cover. Raise rail until holes in the
header sleeve and holes in the header bracket align. Join with clevis
pin (1). Insert ring fastener (2) to secure.
NOTE: To enable the rail to clear sectional door springs, it may be
necessary to lift opener onto a temporary support. The opener must
either be secured to a support or held firmly in place by another
person.
