Stacking Top Section
12
Place the top section in the opening. Install a nail to prevent the top section from falling
backwards. Now, flip up the hinge leaves, hold tight against section, and fasten center hinges
first and end hinges last (refer to step, Stacking Sections). Vertical track alignment is critical.
Position flag angle or wall angle between 1-11/16” (43 mm) to 1-3/4” (44 mm) from the
edge of the door; tighten the bottom lag screw. Flag angles must be parallel to the door sec-
tions. Repeat for other side.
IMPORTANT:
THE DIMENSION BETWEEN THE FLAG ANGLES OR WALL ANGLES MUST BE
DOOR WIDTH PLUS 3-3/8” (86MM) TO 3-1/2” (89 MM) FOR SMOOTH, SAFE DOOR OPERA-
TION.
FOR FULLY ADJUSTABLE TRACK:
Complete the vertical track installation by securing the
jamb bracket(s) and tightening the other lag screws. Push the vertical track against the track
rollers so that the track rollers are touching the deepest part of the curved side of the track;
tighten all the track bolts and nuts. Repeat for other side.
FOR ANGLE MOUNT TRACK:
Complete the vertical track installation by securing the jamb
bracket(s) and or tightening the other lag screws. Push the vertical track against the track
rollers so that the track rollers are touching the deepest part of the curved side of the vertical
track, as shown. Repeat for other side.

Attaching Drawbar Operator Bracket

IMPORTANT:
WHEN CONNECTING A TROLLEY TYPE GARAGE DOOR OPENER TO THIS DOOR,
A WAYNE DALTON OPERATOR/ TROLLEY BRACKET MUST BE SECURELY ATTACHED TO
THE TOP SECTION OF THE DOOR IF ONE HAS BEEN PROVIDED, ALONG WITH ANY STRUTS
PROVIDED WITH THE DOOR (IF A WAYNE DALTON OPERATOR/ TROLLEY BRACKET WAS NOT
PROVIDED WITH YOUR DOOR, THAN USE THE ONE PROVIDED BY YOUR OPERATOR MANU-
FACTURER). THE INSTALLATION OF THE OPERATOR MUST BE ACCORDING TO MANUFAC-
TURER’S INSTRUCTIONS AND FORCE SETTINGS MUST BE ADJUSTED PROPERLY.
NOTE:
For retro fit applications, the drawbar operator bracket must be aligned with an exist-
ing operator.
NOTE:
Refer to illustrations to determine which drawbar operator bracket were supplied with
your door. Follow the corresponding step below:
Place the bottom half inside the top half and flush against the inside surface of the top
section. Adjust both the top and bottom halves out as far apart as possible on the section
surface. Secure the drawbar operator bracket bottom half and the top half together using (4)
5/16” - 18 x 1/2” carriage bolts and (4) 5/16” - 18 flange hex nuts.
NOTE:
Install the 5/16” - 18 x 1/2” carriage bolts and the 5/16” - 18 flange hex nuts as far
apart as possible, prior to securing both top and bottom halves together.
Now, locate the center of the top section and align the center of the holes in the drawbar op-
erator bracket assembly with the top section center line. Align the drawbar operator bracket
assembly vertically.
NOTE:
For retro fit applications, the drawbar operator bracket assembly must be aligned with
an existing operator.

FOR STANDARD INSTALLATION:
Slide the top halve of the drawbar operator bracket
assembly under the strut, keeping the drawbar operator bracket assembly aligned with the
center line. Remove the strut’s screws, if necessary and attach to the top section (through
strut if necessary) using (3) 1/4” - 20 x 7/8" self drilling screws.
NOTE:
If your door lacks a strut on the top section, ignore the previous paragraph.
Attach the bottom halve of the drawbar operator bracket to the section surface using (3) 1/4”
- 20 x 7/8” self drilling screws.
NOTE:
When attaching drawbar operator bracket to top section with strut, apply additional
pressure to thread into the strut.

operator bracket assembly under the strut and over the center hinge, keeping the drawbar
operator bracket assembly aligned with the center line. Attach the drawbar operator bracket
assembly to the top section using 1/4” - 20 x 7/8" self drilling screws and strut clips.
NOTE:
If needed, temporarily remove the strut and the upper hinge leaf of the center hinge
screws to properly position the drawbar operator bracket assembly onto the top section.
