To adjust spring(s), 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.
NoTE:
single spring applications require
no spring winding on left hand side.
Clamp a pair of vice clamps on the vertical
tracks just above the second roller on one
side and just below the second roller on
the other side. This will prevent the door
from raising or lowering while adjusting
the spring(s).
PRIOR TO WINDING OR MakING
aDjusTMENTs TO THE sPRINGs, ENsuRE
yOu’RE WINDING IN THE PROPER
DIRECTION as sTaTED IN THE
INsTallaTION INsTRuCTIONs.
OTHERWIsE THE sPRING FITTINGs May
RElEasE FROM sPRING IF NOT WOuND
IN THE PROPER DIRECTION aND COulD
REsulT IN sEVERE OR FaTal INjuRy.
To 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”.
To 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. Place the
wrench onto the winding shaft. Pull down
on the ratchet 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 ratchet wrench to be rotated
upward by the spring tension. Release the
pawl to allow it to engage with the ratchet
wheel.
Remove the vice clamps from the vertical
tracks, re-check door balance and adjust
if necessary. When door is balanced and
adjusted properly, place the ratchet pawl
knobs in the active position (lower
position).
