Guide the chain over chain spreader and opener sprocket. If •
necessary, loosen the outer nut on the trolley to obtain more
chain slack. Insert the second washered bolt. Use only the
bolts previously removed from opener.
Tighten both bolts securely through the rail into the opener as •
shown.
Position the rail support bracket on the opener.•
Attach the bracket to the rail with 1/4"-20x5/8" hex bolts and •
lock washers. DO NOT overtighten.
Attach the bracket to the opener by inserting a 5/16"-18x1/2" •
washered bolt through a hole in each side flange and a
matching hole in the bracket. Complete the connection by
inserting the #8-32x3/8" screw through the back flange and
the hole in rail support.
To avoid SERIOUS damage to opener, ONLY use bolts/
fasteners mounted in top of motor unit.

WARNING WARNING
Tighten the Chain
Spin the inner nut and lock washer down the threaded shaft, •
away from the trolley.
To tighten the chain, turn outer nut in the direction shown. • As
you turn the nut, keep the chain from twisting.
When the chain is approximately 1/2" (1.27 cm) above the base •
of the rail at its midpoint, re-tighten the inner nut to secure the
adjustment.
Sprocket noise can result if chain is either too loose or too
tight.
When installation is complete, you may notice some chain droop
with the door closed. This is normal. If the chain returns to the
position shown when the door is open, do not re-adjust the chain.
NOTE: During future maintenance, ALWAYS pull the emergency
release handle to disconnect trolley before adjusting chain.
You have now finished assembling your garage door opener.

INSTALLATION STEP 1
Determine the Header Bracket Location
To prevent possible SERIOUS INJURY or DEATH:
Header bracket • MUST be RIGIDLY fastened to structural
support on header wall or ceiling, otherwise garage door
might not reverse when required. DO NOT install header
bracket over drywall.
Concrete anchors • MUST be used if mounting header bracket
or 2x4 into masonry.
NEVER• try to loosen, move or adjust garage door, springs,
cables, pulleys, brackets, or their hardware, ALL of which are
under EXTREME tension.
ALWAYS• call a trained door systems technician if garage
door binds, sticks, or is out of balance. An unbalanced
garage door might not reverse when required.
Close the door and mark the inside vertical centerline of the 1.
garage door.
Extend the line onto the header wall above the door.2.
You can fasten the header bracket within 4 feet (1.22 m) of
the left or right of the door center only if a torsion spring
or center bearing plate is in the way; or you can attach it to
the ceiling (see page 9) when clearance is minimal. (It may
be mounted on the wall upside down if necessary, to gain
approximately 1/2" (1.27 cm).)
If you need to install the header bracket on a 2x4 (on wall or
ceiling), use lag screws (not provided) to securely fasten the
2x4 to structural supports as shown here and on page 9.
Open your door to the highest point of travel as shown. Draw 3.
an inter secting horizontal line on the header wall 2" (5 cm)
above the high point. This height will provide travel clearance
for the top edge of the door.
