TEST 1:
Lift the door slowly checking that the torque tube turns until the door is fully open. Check that the counterbalance cables are
wound correctly on their respective drums.
TEST 2:
Check for proper counterbalance of the door: positioning it at mid-height, the door should remain in position. It should neither go
up, nor fall under its own weight. Adjust spring(s), if door lifts by itself and is hard to pull down, or if door is difficult to lift and
comes down by itself. Refer to Step 7, Spring Adjustment (If Required). Also check that the distance between the door and the
horizontal tracks is identical on the left and right side.
Once these checks have been made, close the door.
