• With the door fully open and parallel to the floor, measure the
distance from the floor to the top of the door.
• Using a stepladder as a support, raise the top of the opener to
this height.
• The top of the door should be level with the top of the motor
unit. Do not position the opener more than 5 cm above this
point.

section beneath the rail.

the door, pull down on the trolley release arm to disconnect
