C:INSTALLING THE OPERATOR

STEP 2: Raise the Tee Rail so that the Front Idler Bracket and

 

Front Mounting Bracket align. Insert bolt and tighten nut loosely for

 

now. Later in the installation, this nut must be tightened securely.

 

STEP 3 — Sectional Doors and One Piece Doors with Track:

 

Raise the Opener and rest the Power Unit on a ladder or other sturdy

 

support. Open the door the full open position. Allow 2" of space

 

between the Tee Rail and the top section of the door (as shown in the

 

illustration, below, far left).

 

 

STEP 3A — One Piece Doors without Track: Raise the opener

 

and rest the power unit on a ladder or other sturdy support. Open the

 

door to the high arc position. Allow 2” of space between the tee rail

 

and the door (at the high arc position) as shown in the illustration,

 

below, left. The opener will be angled as shown. This is necessary

 

for proper operation.

 

 

NOTE: Since the Opener will be secured permanently in this

position, open and close the door a few

 

 

 

times to be sure the door does not rub on the

 

 

Tee Rail and that you have allowed the

accomplished using standard

 

 

 

1-1/4“ perforated steel angle available at most hardware stores. If in doubt about location of, and attachment to, ceiling joists, a carpenter should be contacted to provide assistance. A cross brace will be necessary if power head is mounted 8” or more from the ceiling.

STEP 5: Return to the Tee Rail/Front Mounting Bracket and securely tighten the bolt and nut that connect the Tee Rail Front Idler bracket and the Front Mounting Bracket. (See Step 2, above).
