Step 13: Secure idrive™ Opener

Step 12: idrive™ Opener/Torque Tube Assembly Installation

Push the outer torque tubes in until they are touching the opener. Be sure that the snap buttons are not engaged in any of the outer tube holes. This will make the torque tube the shortest in length and allow enough room to get the tubes into the drums. The torque tube can be adjusted to fit a door width of 8’ to 10’ in 6” increments.

See figure above.

Lift the iDriveopener/ torque tube assembly up to the drums. It may be necessary to disconnect the motor from the torque tube to get the tube into the drum. To disconnect, pull the cable coming out of the top right hand side of the opener. This will disconnect the motor and allow the torque tube to rotate inside the opener. Align one end of the tube to the “cam” shaped hole in the drum. Once aligned, slide the tube into the

cable drum. Make sure it is all the way into the drum. Now take the op posite end of the tube and slide it into the other drum. Extending the tube so that the tube is all the way in both drums. When correct, the snap but- tons will engage the set of holes for your door width.

Locate the spring pad. The spring pad is a vertical running board above the center of the door. Remove

(2)1/4-20 flange nuts from bottom of opener. NOTE: Do not discard flange nuts. Place the support bracket (in idrive™ hardware bag) underneath the opener, to the right side of motor, centered on spring pad. Level the torque tube to the top of the door section with the idrive™ resting on the support bracket. Once torque tube is level, secure support bracket to the spring pad with (2) 1/4 x 2” lag screws(operator hardware). Lift and slide the opener over the support bracket, aligning the mounting studs with the bracket slots. Loosely fasten to mounting studs with the (2) 1/4-20 flange nuts. NOTE: Do not tighten 1/4-20 flange nuts to opener studs at this time.
