PART NO: 51621. REVISION 6 - OCTOBER 2016
a) Check the axle length and cut if sideroom is limited.
Before cutting, make sure the floating axle is free and
centred
. Centre will be found by rotating the axle a quarter turn in either direction then releasing . With centre
found, make a clear mark on the axle against the hub for later reference.
b) Lift door onto the brackets (the right way round so that the door will roll down from the front of the opening).
Immediately loosely fit the “U” bolts, saddles, washers and nuts to the brackets in position shown. Fitting the ‘U’
bolts eliminates the door falling from the brackets. (Do not tighten until Step 2.4, c.)

a) Centre the door with the opening, while ensuring
the floating axle is also centred with the door.
Do this by lining up previous marks with the hub,
then lift both the axle and the door together until it
is centred with the opening.
b) Rotate the curtain and axle so that the bottom rail
of the door is positioned as shown (three o’clock).
c) Push the axle forward in the slots (toward the
opening) and tighten the nuts firmly without over-
tightening. (10 Newton metres or 6.6 feet/pounds
torque reading).
NOTE:
Do not cut the plastic wrap or packaging yet.
