SECTIONAL DOOR OR ONE-PIECE DOOR WITH TRACK
A 38 mm board is convenient for setting an ideal door-to-T-rail
distance.
• Raise the opener onto a stepladder. You will need help at this
point if the ladder is not tall enough.
• Open the door all the way and place a 38 mm board on the top
section beneath the T-rail.
• If the top section or panel hits the trolley when you raise
the door, pull down on the trolley release arm to disconnect
inner and outer sections. Slide the outer trolley toward
the motor unit. The trolley can remain disconnected until
Installation Step 11 is completed.
