1.Close the door and turn off the air to the operator. Note: The front piston is extended and the rear piston is down. When remounting the operator, make sure the pistons are back in the same position.

2.Disconnect the air lines from the operator.

3.Remove the operator from the track: Unscrew the two bolts holding the brackets to the

track and take the chain or belt off the sprocket on the door shaft at the top of the opening. Leave the chain or belt on the operator.

4.Lay the chain or belt and the operator down together and disconnect the chain or belt from the piston shafts by loosening the set screws in the collars, and sliding the collars off the piston shafts.

5.Unscrew the bolts on the bottom of the 5 retaining rods that run the length of the operator. You will have to keep the rods from turning by using a vise-grip or pliers.

6.Remove the piston from the cylinders by pushing down on the piston rods forcing the bottom cap out of the cylinder. Clean the inside of the cylinders by pushing a lightly oiled rag through it with the piston rod.

7.Remove the old U-cup seals from the piston and clean the piston thoroughly. Note the location of the seals.

8.Put the new U-cup seals on the piston.

9.Put everything back together. When tightening the retaining rods, make sure they are tightened equally. Put the operator back on the track remembering to extend the front piston rod and to have the rear piston rod 1/2” from bottoming out.

10.Before reconnecting the air line, inject 8 to 10 inches of 10wt, non-detergent oil into the air line. Reattach the air lines and cycle the door.
