INSTALLATION — BI-FOLD TRACK SYSTEMS
Step D. Attach the Aluminum Track to the Frame
1.
Before attaching the track, make sure that you have inserted the correct number of carriers, top pivot brackets, and snubbers.
For one way operation, one pivot pin and one snubber is required. For split operation, two pivot pins are required, but no
snubbers.
IMPORTANT:
Carriers have three wheels. Each carrier can be loaded into the track with one
wheel to the front or two wheels to the front.
2.
After inserting the carriers, check that the carrier heights are the same as the pivot pin height
(see photo below). Adjust as necessary.
3.
If the track arrived attached, use the same holes and re-attach the aluminum track to the top frame with the screws supplied.
Be sure the holes line up correctly. Make sure there is a track screw within 3" of each end of the track.
