Drawbar Operator Bracket
Tools: Power drill, 7/16” Socket driver, Phillips head screwdriver, Vice
clamps, Tape measure
13
NOTE: If you’re installing a drawbar operator, the drawbar operator bracket must be mounted
and secured prior to installing top section.
IMPORTANT: WHEN CONNECTING A DRAWBAR OPERATOR TYPE GARAGE DOOR OPENER
TO THIS DOOR, A WAYNE-DALTON OPERATOR/ DRAWBAR OPERATOR BRACKET MUST
BE SECURELY ATTACHED TO THE TOP SECTION OF THE DOOR, ALONG WITH ANY STRUT
PROVIDED WITH THE DOOR. THE INSTALLATION OF THE DRAWBAR OPERATOR MUST BE AC-
CORDING TO MANUFACTURER’S INSTRUCTIONS AND FORCE SETTINGS MUST BE ADJUSTED
PROPERLY.
Prior to installing the top section, locate the center of the top section and seat the drawbar
operator bracket on top of the top section. For retro fit applications, the drawbar operator
bracket must be aligned with an existing drawbar operator and positioned on top section
so it bridges the transition point of the section thickness. Install (2) #12 x 1/2” phillips head
screws on the back side of drawbar operator bracket. Clamp drawbar operator bracket to
strut (if supplied) with vice clamps. Attach (5) 1/4” - 14 x 5/8” self-tapping screws to the
drawbar operator bracket. Remove vice clamps.
NOTE: If a strut was installed, you can use two of the 1/4” - 20 x 11/16” self-drilling screws
previously used to attach the strut instead of two 1/4”-14 x 5/8” self-tapping screws when
attaching drawbar operator bracket to strut.
NOTE: When attaching drawbar operator bracket to top section with strut, apply additional
pressure to thread into the strut.
