Tools Needed:
Now, lift door and check it’s balance. Adjust,
if
door lifts by itself (hard to pull down) or if
door is difficult to lift (easy to pull down).
Anytime spring adjustments are made,
ratchet pawl knob must be in the upper
position to add/remove required number
of spring turns. To adjust springs, only add
or remove a maximum of 3/10 of a turn
(three teeth of ratchet wheel) at a time.
Both sides need to be adjusted equally on
double spring doors.
Add Spring Tension:
The ratchet wheel is
made of 10 teeth. To add spring tension,
ensure the ratchet and socket is set so
that it will tighten counter clockwise on
the right hand side, and clockwise on the
left hand side. Place the ratchet with 5/8’
socket onto the winding shaft, pull down
to add 3/10 of a turn. Watch as three teeth
of the ratchet wheel pass over the pawl,
creating three “clicks”.
Remove Spring Tension:
To remove
spring tension, ensure the ratchet and
socket is set so that it will tighten counter
clockwise on the right hand side and
clockwise on the left hand side. It is
recommended that a regular 5/8” wrench
be used. Place the wrench onto the
winding shaft. Pull down on the wrench
to relieve pressure between the pawl and
the ratchet wheel. Push in on the pawl to
allow the three ratchet wheel teeth to pass
by the pawl, as you carefully allow the
wrench to be rotated upward by the spring
tension. Release the pawl to allow it to
engage with the ratchet wheel.
