Installation Step 13

Connect Door Arm to Trolley

Follow instructions which apply to your door type as illustrated below and on page 27.

SECTIONAL Doors Only

Make sure garage door is fully closed. Pull the manual release handle to disconnect the outer trolley from the inner trolley. Slide the outer trolley back (away from the door) about 2" as shown in Figures 1, 2 and 3.

Figure 1:

Fasten straight door arm section to outer trolley with the 5/16"x1" clevis pin. Secure the connection with a ring fastener.

Fasten curved section to the door bracket in the same way, using the 5/16"x1-1/4"clevis pin.

Figure 2:

Bring arm sections together. Find two pairs of holes that line up and join sections. Select holes as far apart as possible to increase door arm rigidity.
