Wayne-Dalton 8700 Rear Back Hangs, Horizontal tracks, Bolts and nuts Perforated angle

NOTE: If you have windload codes 1000, 1001, 1002, 1022, 1041 or 1042, pushnuts are not required.

NOTE: For windload codes 1020, 1021, 1040 or 1041, pushnuts are required to be installed.

NOTE: When positioning the pushnut onto roller stem, ensure the tabs on the pushnut are pointing away from roller stem.

IMPORTANT: Accurately positioning the pushnut onto the roller stem is criti- cal. Once the pushnut is pushed onto the roller stem, the tabs making con- tact with the steel surface will make it difficult to reposition the pushnut.

If your door came with pushnuts, install them now by placing a pushnut onto the end of each roller stem and sliding it towards the bottom corner brackets, graduated end hinges or the top fixture assemblies. Leave at least 1/4” of space between push nut and bottom corner brackets / graduated end hinges / top fixtures.

Raise the door until the top section and half of the next section are in a horizontal position. Do not raise door any further since rear of horizontal tracks are not yet supported.

WARNING

Raising door further can result in door falling and cause severe or fatal injury.

Clamp a pair of vice clamps onto the vertical tracks just above the second roller on one side, and just below the second track roller on the other side. This will prevent the door from rais- ing or lowering while installing the rear back hangs.

Using perforated angle (may not be supplied), (2) 5/16” x 1-5/8” hex head lag screws and

Important: Do not support the weight of the door on any part of the hori- zontal track hanger that cantilevers 4” or more beyond a sound framing member.
