Safety:
Read and understand the warning on your stepladder and make sure the ladder is in good working
order.
Examine all tools needed to insure they are in proper working order before starting.
Power tools that are not internally grounded require power cords and extension cords with a ground
prong.
Always wear eye protection when drilling or installing parts.
components are made of metal so beware of any sharp edges and do not let any components
make contact with electrical current during installation.
DO NOT install more than one
unit on any two framing members.
Preparation:
The
unit can be installed in any area of garage, provided there is adequate space. When
possible install so that all four sides are accessible for convenient loading.
Take care not to block attic or crawl space access, or lights.
If ceiling height allows for it, the unit may also be installed above the open garage door. If installing
above an open door, measure between the highest point of the opening garage door and the ceiling to
determine if there is adequate room for the unit. You will need at least 25 inches of open space
between the ceiling and the highest point of the door during operation.
Clear the area where the
unit is to be installed, and don’t leave autos parked under the unit
during installation.
Locate any gas, electrical, and plumbing lines in the garage before drilling holes in the drywall.
NOTE:
We refer to Joists throughout the instructions. Joists are also called Ceiling Studs or Framing
Members.
