Installation
Fitting Drive Unit to Door
Note:
The following instructions are for
RIGHT HAND
SIDE
installation (from the inside looking out).
1
Check that the U-Bolt on the opposite end (left hand
end) of the door shaft is securely tightened.
2
Roll the entire door curtain onto the drum and tie
securely with rope (or similar).
3
Using a suitable prop support the right side of the
door. Make sure that the prop is padded to avoid
marking the curtain.
WARNING: CREATE A BARRIER AROUND THE
WORK ZONE TO PROTECT PERSONS FROM INJURY.
DO NOT ALLOW CHILDREN/PERSONS AROUND
THE DOOR WHEN PROPPED. SERIOUS PERSONAL
INJURY AND/OR PROPERTY DAMAGE CAN RESULT
FROM FAILURE TO FOLLOW THIS WARNING.
4
Carefully loosen and remove the right hand U-Bolt.
5
Make sure that the door is safely supported by the
prop. Remove the right hand door bracket from the
wall.
6
Hold the drive unit assembly and try to rotate the drive
gear by pushing the fork. If it does not turn, switch
the opener into manual mode by pulling the red cord
downwards.
7
Slide the drive unit over the door shaft and make sure
that the fork engages one of the spokes of the door
drum wheel (Fig. 6).
Note:
In limited sideroom situations the opener can rest
on the door bracket. In this case you do not need
to use the U-Bolt that secured the door just the one
on the opener.
8
Refit the door bracket to the wall. In some cases it
may need to be repositioned to accommodate the
opener.
9
Refit the axle U-Bolt and tighten securely.
10
Straighten the drive unit and secure the motor drive
unit U-Bolt.
11
Remove prop and test manual operation of the door. It
should travel smoothly and not catch on the drive unit.
