I nstallation of Side-Load Header and Operator in
4 9 B
1. Establish the door opening height (OH) and the correct length (L) of the header (see page 20).
2. Measuring from the highest point on the floor, mark the door opening height on one door jamb.
3. Use a spirit level and transfer the mark to the opposite jamb.
4. Dismantle the casing, separating the header, cover, short and long center panels, and end caps
(see page 8).
5. Use provided templates, or use end caps as templates, and drill appropriate header mounting
holes and cable inlets.
Note!
The cables can enter the header from the hinge/pivot side or from the strike side. Try to bring all
wiring in at the strike side because of the tight conditions between the operator and end cap.
6. Install the end caps using appropriate screws, or Riv-Nuts if required.
7. Install the header onto the end caps.
8. Install the short center panel to the header/end cap with the outer screws, on the right or left side
depending on the hand of door.
9. Install the long center panel.
10. Install the operator and secure it to the header with three screws on the side opposite the cover.
The other three screws holding the operator will be installed with the cover.

into rough opening in wall. Level header and plumb jambs, shimming as needed. Fasten jambs, then
proceed to step 10 above. Details will vary widely according to the nature of the installation site.

M ounting the Bottom Pivot

5 1 B
Prepare and install the bottom pivot (reference section titled, "Finding the Pivot Height"). The
bottom pivot can be installed in two ways:
Alt 1: With the base plate/bearing placed directly on the floor. The distance 3.75"/95 mm to the
pivot centerline is obtained if the base plate is placed against the vertical jamb/wall.
Alt 2: With the bearing installed directly into the threshold. Make sure that the centerline of the
bottom pivot and the centerline of the drive shaft are aligned.
Tip
Use plumb bob.
