2.1) Insert shuttle into track by locating the cut out in
the bottom of the track at the powerhead end of the
track. It is important that the allen key bolt where
the arm connects onto the shuttle is facing the door.
Do not install it the wrong way round.
2.2) Move shuttle to half way along the rail section, grease
the chain and sprocket with a lithium type grease or
equivalent. Do not use oil based lubricants.
2.3) Place track onto powerhead so that the track
slides into spline shaft. Position the brackets (E)
on the studs and secure in place using ni-lock nuts
supplied. Lock the brackets to the rail by tightening
the ni-lock nuts. Do not over tighten the nuts.
2.4) Remove excess chain slack by tightening the chain
tightening screw (C) in (Fig. 4b) in a clockwise
direction (when viewed from the power head end of
the rail). Do not over tighten the chain, just enough
to remove the slack.
2.5) Fix the Smart Lifter opener to the lintel or to the
ceiling with the correct fixing (Fig. 5), maintaining
a minimum gap of 30mm from the top panel's
maximum height (Fig. 6). Check measurements
before drilling.
2.6) Insert the bolts supplied into the cutouts on both
sides of track at powerhead end. Slide bolts on
track to the correct hanging location to pick up
noggins or fixing points. Place non ni-lock nuts onto
the bolt (ref Fig. 4c) and tighten. Place bracket (F)
onto bolt so that it sits against the nut and secure
with ni-lock nut supplied - do not over tighten.
Smart Openers recommend the fitting of all four
straps on every installation.
2.7) Fix the Smart Lifter opener to the ceiling with
appropriate fasteners (Fig.7). Cut off any fixing
strap excess.
Warning: Make sure the opener is affixed to noggins
in ceiling and not just to plasterboard. Failure to have
a safe and secure fixing will lead to opener falling
causing serious personal and /or property damage.
Note: A set of fixing straps should be located in the
centre of the aluminium rail to prevent rail flex that will
result in phantom reversing.

To install the spring for the Smart Openers Lifter suction gate:

1. Make sure the opener is facing the door correctly.
2. Move the shuttle halfway along the rail, then grease the chain and sprocket with lithium-type grease (do not use oil-based lubricants).
3. Place the track onto the powerhead, sliding it into the spline shaft.
4. Position the brackets on the studs and secure them using the ni-lock nuts provided. Tighten the nuts without over-tightening.
5. Remove excess chain slack by tightening the chain tightening screw clockwise when viewed from the powerhead end. Tighten just enough to remove slack, but do not over-tighten.
6. Fix the Smart Lifter opener to the lintel or ceiling using the correct fixings, maintaining a minimum 30mm gap from the top panel’s maximum height.
7. Insert the supplied bolts into the cutouts on both sides.

The context does not specifically mention installing a spring separately, but these steps cover the main installation process.
