7. Pinning the Door
7.1 Pinning the Door to the drum:
Pinning the door’s curtain to its drum maintains security when the
opener is closed. If the curtain is not pinned the door can be partially
opened manually.
a. Fully close the door.
b. Mark a minimum of two (2) drill holes on the drum to each end of the
door.
c. Drill holes using 3.2mm (
1
/
8
”) drill bit.
d. Fit M10 x 32mm screws and washers to each of the four (4) holes. This
screw should be positioned as low as possible in the grove, but make
sure that it does not alter the curtain’s normal lead in to the guide.

8. Proping the Door
8.1 Prepare the Door:
a. At the end opposite to where the opener will be fitted, check that the
U-bolt which holds the door axle to the bracket is tightened securely.
b. Open the door completely and tie rope around the door roll. Do not tie
the rope too tight as damage to the curtain may ensue. This will stop
the door unrolling when taken off the bracket
c. At the end where the opener is to be fitted, support the door with a door
stand or suitable prop. Place a towel between the door and the prop to
protect the door from damage.
d. At the end where the opener will be fitted use a pencil to mark the
position of the U-bolt in the door bracket and the position of the door
bracket on the wall to assist in reassembling.
WARNING! The U-bolt must be done up tightly to
ensure the stored energy in the springs cannot be
unexpectedly released.
WARNING!
Make sure the prop is
snug under the door and is stable.
