ASSEMBLY STEP 1

Attach the Rail to the Motor Unit

To avoid installation difficulties, do not run the garage door opener until instructed to do so.

Remove the bolt and lock nut from the top of the motor unit.

Place rail onto the bolt mounted on the motor unit and align the back hole with the hole in the top of the unit.

Fasten rail with the washered bolt and lock nut previously removed. Tighten securely. Remember to use only these bolts/fasteners! Any other bolts/fasteners will cause serious damage to the opener.

Cut tape from rail, belt and styrofoam.

REMOVE STYROFOAM.

Position belt over the motor unit sprocket.

Set the Belt Tension

By hand, thread the spring trolley nut on the threaded shaft until it is finger tight against the trolley (Figure 1).

Do not use any tools.

• Insert a screwdriver tip into one of the nut ring slots and brace it firmly against the trolley (Figure 2).

• Place a 7/16" open end wrench on the square

 

end. Rotate about 1/4 turn until the spring releases and

 

snaps the nut ring against the trolley (Figure 3).
