2. Install garage door opener ONLY on properly balanced and
lubricated garage door. An improperly balanced door may
NOT reverse when required and could result in SEVERE
INJURY or DEATH.
3. ALL repairs to cables, spring assemblies and other hardware
MUST be made by a trained door systems technician BEFORE
installing opener.
4. Disable ALL locks and remove ALL ropes connected to
garage door BEFORE installing opener to avoid entanglement.
5. Install garage door opener 7 feet (2.13 m) or more above
floor.
6. Mount emergency release within reach, but at least 6 feet
(1.8 m) above the floor and avoiding contact with vehicles to
avoid accidental release.
7. NEVER connect garage door opener to power source until
instructed to do so.

installing or servicing opener. They could be caught in
garage door or opener mechanisms.

• out of reach of children at minimum height of 5 feet
(1.5 m).
• away from ALL moving parts of the door.

ASSEMBLY STEP 5
Tighten the Chain
1. Spin the inner nut and lock washer down the trolley threaded
shaft, away from the trolley.
2. To tighten the chain, turn outer nut in the direction shown
(Figure 1).
3. When the chain is even with the base of the rail at its midpoint,
re-tighten the inner nut to secure the adjustment.
4. Position the sprocket cover over the garage door opener
sprocket and attach with 8x3/8" hex screws.
Sprocket noise can result if chain is too loose. When installation
is complete, you may notice some chain droop with the door
closed. This is normal. If the chain returns to the position shown
in Figure 2 when the door is open, do not re-adjust the chain.
NOTES:
•
During future maintenance, ALWAYS pull the emergency
release handle to disconnect trolley before adjusting chain.
•
You may notice loosening of chain after Adjustment Step 2
(Test the Safety Reversal System). Check for proper tension
and readjust chain if necessary. Then repeat Adjustment
Step 2.
You have now finished assembling your garage door opener.
