Top Section

 

Tools Required: Hammer, Step ladder, Tape measure

 

 

Place the top section in the opening. Temporarily secure the top section by driving a nail in the header near the center of the door and bending it over the top section. Now, flip up the hinge leaves, hold tight against section, and fasten center hinges first and end hinges last (refer to step, Stacking Sections). Vertical track alignment is critical. Position flag angle or wall angle between 1-11/16” (43 mm) to 1-3/4” (44 mm) from the edge of the door; tighten the bottom lag screw. Flag angles or wall angles must be parallel to the door sections. Repeat for other side.

Important: the dimension between the flag angles or wall angles must be door width plus 3-3/8” (86mm) to 3-1/2” (89 mm) for smooth, safe door opera- tion.

For Quick Install Track: Complete the vertical track installation by securing the jamb bracket(s) and tightening the other lag screws. Repeat for other side.

For Fully Adjustable track or Riveted Track: Complete the vertical track instal- lation by securing the jamb bracket(s) and tightening the other lag screws. Push the vertical track against the track rollers so that the track rollers are touching the deepest part of the curved side of the track; tighten all the track bolts and nuts. Repeat for other side.

For Angle Mount Track: Complete the vertical track installation by securing the jamb bracket(s) and or tightening the other lag screws. Push the vertical track against the track rollers so that the track rollers are touching the deepest part of the curved side of the vertical track, as shown. Repeat for other side.

Operator Bracket

Tools Required: Level, Power drill, 7/16” Socket driver, Tape measure

 

Important: When connecting a trolley type garage door opener to this door, a Wayne-Dalton operator/ trolley bracket must be securely attached to

the top section of the door if one has been provided, along with any u-bars provided with the door (if a Wayne-Dalton operator/ trolley bracket was not provided with your door, than use the one provided by your operator manu- facturer). The installation of the operator must be according to manufac- turer’s instructions and force settings must be adjusted properly.

Place the bottom half inside the top half and flush against the inside surface of the top section. Adjust both the top and bottom halves out as far apart as possible on the section surface. Secure the bottom half and the top halves together using (4) 5/16” - 18 x 1/2” car- riage bolts and (4) 5/16” - 18 flange hex nuts.

NOTE: Install the 5/16” - 18 x 1/2” carriage bolts and the 5/16” - 18 flange hex nuts as far apart as possible, prior to securing both top and bottom halves together.

Now, locate the center of the top section and align the center of the holes in the adjustable operator bracket assembly with the top section center line. Align the adjustable operator bracket assembly vertically.

NOTE: For retro fit applications, the adjustable operator bracket must be aligned with an

existing operator.

Slide the top half of the operator bracket under the strut, keeping the operator bracket aligned with the center line. Remove the struts screws if necessary and attach to the top section (through strut if necessary) using (3) 1/4” - 20 x 7/8” self drilling screws.

NOTE: If your door lacks a strut on the top section, ignore the previous paragraph.

Attach the bottom half of the operator bracket to the section surface (center hinge if neces- sary) using (2) 1/4” - 20 x 11/16” self drilling screws.

NOTE: When attaching operator bracket to top section with strut, apply additional pressure to thread into the strut.
