SIDE ROOM REQUIREMENTS

Fig. 1 shows the minimum side room that is required. The

distance between the edge of the door curtain and the inside of

the bracket is 85mm minimum, and the distance between the

edge of the door curtain and the outside of the bracket is

135mm minimum.

Fig. 2 shows the recommended side room. The distance

between the edge of the door curtain and the inside of the

bracket should be 110mm , and the distance between the edge

of the door curtain and the outside of the bracket is 160mm.

1. CHECK OPERATION OF DOOR

BEFORE BEGINNING THE INSTALLATION OF THE

EASYROLLER

AUTOMATIC OPENER CHECK THE

OPERATION OF THE DOOR.

The door must be well balanced and be in a reasonable

operating condition. You should be able to lift the door

smoothly and with little resistance. It should stay open around

900mm to 1200mm above the floor. The door should not stick

or bind in the guide tracks. The ideal operational effort in

raising or lowering the door should not exceed a force of 10kg

(22 lbs.). Make sure that all door locks are either removed, or

disabled and remove unnecessary accessories.

2. FIXING OF DOOR WEIGHT BARS

Move the door manually to the mid open position. Place the

weight bars equally apart on the bottom rail of the door and

secure them with the fasteners provided (Fig. 3). Check the

operation of the door again. If the door feels heavy it may

require extra tension to be added to the door springs. Refer to

the door Installation manual from the manufacturer on how to

tension the door.

3. LEFT OR RIGHT HAND INSTALLATION

The EasyRoller Automatic Opener can be installed on the left

or right hand side of the door (when looking out from the inside

of the garage). If your opener is to be installed on the RIGHT

HAND side of the door then no change needs to be made as the

opener is factory set for RIGHT HAND installation. If LEFT

HAND side installation is required the next step is to move the

motor wire connector on the control board. The connector plug

has to be removed and reconnected to the LEFT side of the

connector (Fig. 4). If you have made an error in selection and

wish to install to the RIGHT HAND side of the door, then

reconnect the connector plug to the RIGHT side of the

connector (Fig. 5).
