experienced door technician. Instead have

 

a professional door agency release the

 

 

tension.

 

 

Step 1: Close the door and place vice

 

 

clamps on the back legs of both vertical

 

 

tracks, above the third roller to prevent the

 

 

door from lifting as you unwind the springs.

 

 

Use only approved winding bars available

 

 

from your dealer. Do not use undersized

 

 

steel rods, screw drivers or anything else

 

 

to unwind the springs. Position the ladder

 

 

just off to the side of the winding cone.

 

 

The winding cone should be easy to reach

 

 

without putting your body directly in front

 

 

of it.

 

 

Step 2: Insert a winding bar into one of the

 

 

holes in the winding cone. Exert upward

 

 

pressure. Using caution, loosen the two

 

 

(2) set screws in the winding cone. Be

 

 

prepared to support the full torsional force

of the spring when the set screws are

 

 

 

loosened.

 

 

Step 3: Once set screws are loose, slowly

 

 

and carefully lower the winding rod until it

 

 

contacts the door. Insert other winding bar

 

 

into the upper hole. Push up and remove

 

 

lower bar. Carefully lower upper winding

 

 

bar, 1/4 turns at a time until it contacts

 

 

the door. Repeat process until all tension

 

 

is relieved. If your door is equipped with

 

 

two (2) torsion springs, follow the same

 

 

procedure to relieve tension on the second

 

 

spring.

 

 

Step 4: Remove vice clamps from tracks,

 

 

unbolt torsion shaft assembly and remove

 

 

from work area.

 

 

NOTE: Continue with “P4” on page 9 after
