ASSEMBLY STEP 1
Assemble the Rail & Install the Trolley
To avoid installation diffi culties, do not run the garage
door opener until instructed to do so.
The front rail has a cut out “window” at the door end
(see illustration).
The hole above this window is larger
on the top of the rail
than on the bottom. A smaller hole
3-1/2" (8.9 cm) away is close to the rail edge. Rotate the
back rail so it has a similar hole close to the
opposite
edge, about 4-3/4" (12 cm) from the far end.
1. Remove the straight door arm and hanging bracket
packaged inside the front rail and set aside for
Installation Step 5 and 12.
NOTE:
To prevent INJURY while unpacking the rail
carefully remove the straight door arm stored within the
rail section.
2. Align the rail sections on a fl at surface as shown and
slide the tapered ends into the larger ones. Tabs along
the side will lock into place.
3. Place the motor unit on packing material to protect
the cover, and rest the back end of the rail on top. For
convenience, put a support under the front end of the
rail.
4. As a temporary trolley stop, insert a screwdriver into
the hole 10" (25 cm) away from the front of the rail, as
shown.
5. Check to be sure there are 4 plastic wear pads inside
the inner trolley. If they became loose during shipping,
check all packing material. Snap them back into
position as shown.
6. Slide the trolley assembly along the rail from the back
end to the screwdriver.
To prevent INJURY from pinching, keep hands and
fi ngers away from the joints while assembling the rail.
