MOUNTING OPENER FOR SPRING LOADED DOOR
STEP 9
Determine the centre of the door and mark this location
on the wall above and on top of the door. Then draw two
(2) lines 21.5mm on each side of the centre point.
(Fig. 16).
WARNING: MAKE SURE CONCRETE, BRICK WALL OR
TIMBER LINTEL ARE SOLID AND SOUND SO AS TO
FORM A SECURE MOUNTING PLATFORM.
STEP 10
Raise the door to open position. Rest the opener on the
top edge of the door with end of the c-rail against the wall
and drive unit supported level with the lowest point of the
open door.
(Fig. 17).
Note: Do not slide opener c-rail on face of the door when
it is open as it may damage the door surface.
Secure the drive unit to the ceiling with perforated angle
(not supplied). A representative mounting is shown.
(Fig. 15).
Connect angle and drive unit with two flat perforated
strips of angle (not supplied) with M8 x 20mm screws
and nuts. The strips should not extend more than 18mm
below centre of drive unit mounting holes. (Fig. 15).
Do not lock screws at this stage.
STEP 11
Close the door slowly. The opener c-rail will be
elevated by the top edge of the door as it moves. Stop the
door when it is at its highest point of travel. (Fig. 18).
Allow 25mm additional height for clearance between the
door and the track. Support c-rail in this position and then
close the door. (Fig. 18) This will be the height to mount
the wall bracket. The top of the door must not touch the
tube.
