How to put an opener on Trac Rite 944
To install an opener (reduced-drive operator – 4:1 chain hoist) on the Trac-Rite 944 door:

2. Fasten the shaft extension using a 1/4" shoulder screw and a nylon insert stop nut.
3. Feed the hand chain through and around the pocket wheel.
4. Shorten the chain so it hangs 1 to 3 feet off the floor. Make sure there are no twists in the chain and close the loop.

6. Attach the chain keeper clip to the wall 4 to 5 feet above the floor.
