With horizontal tracks installed, you can now adjust the LHR top brackets.

NOTE: Depending on your application, you may need to reverse the top bracket slide for more adjustment, if needed, prior to securing it to the top bracket base.

To adjust the top bracket slides: Loosen the (2) 1/4”-20 flange hex nuts (if neces- sary) and vertically align the top section of the door with the lower sections. Once aligned, position the top bracket slide, out against the horizontal track. Maintaining the slide’s posi- tion, tighten the (2) 1/4”-20 flange hex nuts to secure the top bracket slide to the top bracket base. Repeat for other side.

To reverse the top bracket slides (if needed): Remove the two 1/4” - 20 x 5/8” carriage bolts, two retention washers and two 1/4” - 20 flanged hex nuts. Flip the top bracket slide in the opposite direction. Loosely fasten the top bracket slide to the bracket using two 1/4” - 20 x 5/8” carriage bolts, two retention washers and two 1/4” - 20 flanged hex nuts, as shown.

NOTE: The retention washers must be fully seated against the top bracket base to ensure the anti-twist feature on the top bracket slide engages in the slotted hole in the top bracket base.

Note: If you are installing the idrive® opener with your garage door, skip this step and go to your idrive® Installation Instructions and Owner’s Manual. After completing the steps up to and including, Drum Wrap Installation of your idrive® Installation Instructions and Owner’s Manual continue with Step, Rear Back Hangs, of this door Installation Instructions and Owner’s Manual.
