THE OPENER MUST BE SECURELY FASTENED
TO A STRUCTURAL SUPPORT OF THE GARAGE.
Two representative installations are shown. Yours may be different. Hanging brackets should be angled
(Figure 1) to provide rigid support. On finished ceilings (Figure 2) attach a sturdy metal bracket (not supplied)
to structural supports before installing opener.
PROCEDURE: Measure the distance from EACH
side of the opener to structural support.
Cut both pieces of the hanging bracket to required
lengths. Flatten one end of each bracket and bend
or twist to fit the fastening angles. Do not bend at
the brackets holes. Drill 5mm pilot holes in the
structural supports. Attach flattened ends of
brackets to supports with 5/16"x1-7/8" lag screws.
Lift opener and fasten to hanging bracket as shown.
Check to make sure T-rail is centered over door.
REMOVE 25mm board. Operate door manually. If
door hits the rail, raise header bracket.
INSTALLATION STEP 6
Attach Manual Release Rope & Handle
USE MANUAL RELEASE ROPE ONLY TO
DISENGAGE TROLLEY. DO NOT USE
ROPE AND HANDLE TO PULL DOOR
OPEN OR CLOSED.
PROCEDURE: Thread one end of rope through hole
in top of red handle so "NOTICE" reads right side up
as shown. Secure with an overhand knot.
NOTE: Knot should be at least 25mm from the
end of the rope to prevent slipping.
Thread other end of rope through hole in release arm
of outer trolley. Adjust rope length so that handle is
1.8m above the floor. Secure with an overhand knot
as above.
NOTE: If it is necessary to cut rope, heat seal cut
end with a match or lighter to prevent fraying
and/or raveling.
