Assembly; Assemble The Rail And Install The Trolley - Craftsman 139.18405D Owner's Manual

ASSEMBLY STEP 1

Assemble the Rail and Install the Trolley

To avoid installation diffi culties, do not run the garage door
opener until instructed to do so.
The front rail has a cut out "window" at the door end. The front
and back rail both have rail tabs. These rail tabs MUST be on top of
the rail when assembled.
1. Remove the straight door arm and hanging bracket packaged
inside the front rail and set aside for Installation Steps 5
and 12. NOTE: To prevent INJURY while unpacking the rail
carefully remove the straight door arm stored within the rail
section.
2. Align the rail sections on a fl at surface as shown and slide the
tapered ends into the larger ones. Tabs along the side will lock
into place.
3. Place the motor unit on packing material to protect the cover,
and rest the back end of the rail on top. For convenience, put a
support under the front end of the rail.

10" (25 cm) from the front end of the rail, as shown.
5. Check to be sure there are 4 plastic wear pads inside the inner
trolley. If they became loose during shipping, check all packing
material. Snap them back into position as shown.

screwdriver.
