Balancing Door

 

24

 

Remove locking pliers. Lift door and check its balance. Adjustments to the required number 

of spring turns stated may be necessary. If door rises off floor more than 2 ft. under spring 

tension alone, reduce spring tension. If the door is hard to rise or drifts down on its own, add 

spring tension. A poorly balanced door can cause garage door operator problems.
To adjust spring tension, fully close door. Apply locking pliers to track above third track roller. 

Place locking pliers on torsion shaft, as shown in Step Attaching Counterbalance Lift Cables. 

Insert a winding rod into the winding cone. Push upward on the winding rod slightly while 

carefully loosening the set screws in the winding cone.

IMPORTANT: 

BE PREPARED TO SUPPORT THE FULL FORCE OF THE TORSION SPRING ONCE 

THE SET SCREWS ARE LOOSE.
Carefully adjust spring tension 1/4 turn. Retighten both set screws to 14-15 ft. lbs. of torque 

in the winding cone and repeat for the other side. Recheck door balance and re-adjust spring 

tension if needed.

IMPORTANT: 

DO NOT ADJUST MORE THAN 1 TURN FROM THE RECOMMENDED NUMBER 

OF TURNS.
If the door still does not operate easily, lower the door into the closed position, unwind 

spring(s) completely, and recheck the following items:
1.) Is the door level?
2.) Are the torsion shaft and flag angles / angle mount level and plumb?
3.) Does the distance between the flag angles / angle mount equal door width plus 3-3/8” to 

3-1/2”?
4.) Do the counterbalance lift cables have equal tension? Adjust if necessary.
5.) Rewind the spring(s).
6.) Make sure door is not rubbing on jambs.

IMPORTANT: 

IF DOOR STILL DOES NOT BALANCE PROPERLY, THEN CONTACT A TRAINED 

DOOR SYSTEM TECHNICIAN.

MAINTENANCE

Cleaning Your Garage Door

IMPORTANT: 

DO NOT USE A PRESSURE WASHER ON YOUR GARAGE DOOR!

An annual inspection of all the surfaces of your garage door(s) will reveal the extent of weath-

ering and the possible need for refinishing. When the finish becomes eroded or thin, clean 

and prime any areas showing deterioration. Then completely refinish the door, according to 

the directions, listed below, or the manufacturer’s label directions. Proper finishing of the 

wood substrates to protect your door(s) from the effects of moisture and sunlight is vital in 

extending the service life and beautifying your garage door(s).
The interior and exterior surfaces, as well as all edges must be properly primed, painted and 

maintained, to protect and beautify your door. These finishing instructions are intended to 

achieve both objectives for your wood doors(s).

NOTE:

 Be sure to clean behind weatherstrips on both sides and top of door.

CAUTION 

NEVER MIX CLEANSERS OR DETERGENTS WITH BLEACH.

GLASS CLEANING INSTRUCTIONS

Clean with a mild detergent solution (same as above) and a soft cloth. After cleaning, rinse 

thoroughly.

ACRYLIC CLEANING INSTRUCTIONS

Clean acrylic glazing with nonabrasive soap or detergent and plenty of water. Use your bare 

hands to feel and dislodge any caked on particles. A soft, grit-free cloth, sponge or chamois 

may be used to wipe the surface. Do not use hard or rough cloths that will scratch the acrylic 

glazing. Dry glazing with a clean damp chamois.

NOTE:

 Do not use any window cleaning fluids, scouring compounds, gritty cloths or solvent-

based cleaners of any kind.

Painting Your Garage Door

Refer to Instruction Insert “

Field Painting Wood Door Sections

”.

Maintaining The Finish 

On Your Garage Door

If the finish is beginning to fade, the door may require a field applied top clear coat. Depend-

ing on environment and usage, this may be necessary after 1 to 3 years of use. Refer to 

Instruction Insert “

Field Painting Wood Door Sections

”.

Operation And Maintenance

OPERATING YOUR GARAGE DOOR: 

Before you begin, read all warning labels affixed to 

the door and the installation instructions and owner’s manual. When correctly installed, your 

Wayne Dalton door will operate smoothly. Always operate your door with controlled move-

ments. Do not slam your door or throw your door into the open position, this may cause dam-

age to the door or its components. If your door has an electric opener, refer to the owner’s 

manual to disconnect the opener before performing manual door operation below.
