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. (Figure 1)

Remember to use only these bolts/fasteners! Any other bolts/fasteners will cause serious damage to the opener.

ASSEMBLY STEP 2

Attach the Chain Spreader

•Attach chain spreader to the motor unit with two screws (Figure 2).

•Guide the chain around the selected groove in the chain spreader, to engage either the 8-tooth sprocket or the 6-tooth sprocket (Figure 3).

NOTE: The 6-tooth sprocket is for use with Carriage House Doors and the 8-tooth sprocket is for use with Regular Doors.

To avoid SERIOUS damage to opener, ONLY use bolts/ fasteners mounted in the top of the opener.
