ALANCE
A
Raise door, check alignment and see if it moves freely (Figure 1). If door
appears out of alignment, binds, or does not move smoothly, contact an
Overhead Door Distributor or dealer of your garage door for repairs
and adjustments to door mechanism.
B
Raise door to 3' – 4' above ground and carefully let go. Door should stay
stationary. Slight movement is acceptable. More than slight movement
means door is out of balance. Contact an Overhead Door Distributor
or dealer of your garage door
for repairs and adjustments
to door mechanism.
C
Check door type. Make
a note of whether it is a
sectional or a one-piece
door (Figure 2).
Check Step 2:
WARNING:
If your door sticks, binds, or is out of
balance, have it adjusted by an Overhead
Door Distributor. Door springs, cables,
pulleys, brackets and associated hardware
are under extreme tension and can cause
serious injury or death.
NOTE
The Powermax Opener is equipped with
an Automatic Garage Door Balance
Detection System. See Troubleshooting
