11. COMPLETE GUIDE INSTALLATION
• If guides are flared, then bolt the middle angles and the outside angles
to the wall angles, as shown in Figure 21.
• The Guide Gap MUST be set to the value shown on the ”DATA SHEET”.
12. INSIDE SLIDE STOPS
• If the door has flared guides:
Install “Inside Stop” on LH and RH guides as shown in Figure 22. Slide
stop into inside channel holder and secure with 3/8”-16 x 1/2” capscrew
and washer. Attach locking pliers approximately 4” below the top of
channel holder on both LH and RH guides, as shown in Figure 22.
• If the door uses bellmouths:
Install inside bellmouths and attach locking pliers approximately 4”
below entrance to both LH and RH guides, as shown in Figure 23.
13. LOWER CURTAIN INTO GUIDES
• The next step is to lower curtain into guides, but before loosening the
ropes which holds the coiled curtain, enough initial spring tension
must be applied to cause the bottom bar to rotate about 45 degrees;
then leave one winding bar in the tension wheel with the winding bar
resting against the header.
• Loosen ropes and lower curtain into guides. Do not remove slings/
ropes now. Bottom bar angles will pass by inside stops by twisting
angle and come to rest against locking pliers.
• Install outside stops. See Figure 23 for flared guides and for guides with
bellmouths.
WARNING
Rapidly closing curtain could result in death or serious injury. Use slings/
ropes and locking pliers on both guides to keep curtain in the open
position until spring tension is applied to the barrel assembly.
