may need to improve the sliding

working order but is too heavy,
you must upgrade to an Elite
Motor.

A simple friction test is used to confirm the drag
force of your door. This will determine if the
Standard Motor or the Elite Motor is needed to
open and close your door. Your sliding door must
be in proper working condition and run freely
along its track.
1. Close the door.
2. Wrap/loop the friction tester
around the sliding door handle
and secure the Velcro.
3. Pull on the Friction Tester with even force
to fully open and close the door
3 times
.
Use the same force as you would to
normally open the door and assess.
Standard Motors

silver
barrel
Elite Motors

The test strip is only
used on
Standard
units. If you already
have an
Elite
unit,
this test can be
skipped.
