When installing your door you must use sections of the appropriate height in the right stack­ing order. What sections heights you need to use in what order depends on the height of your door.
Unless your door is six sections in height, you will not receive an Intermediate III section. The BOTTOM SECTION can be identified by the factory attached bottom astragal and by the
bottom bracket warning labels on each end stile. The INTERMEDIATE I SECTION may have a warning label attached to either right or left
hand end stile of the section. This section is always the 3rd section from the bottom of the door.

Removing an Existing Door
IMPORTANT: COUNTERBALANCE SPRING TENSION MUST ALWAYS BE RELEASED BEFORE ANY ATTEMPT IS MADE TO START REMOVING AN EXISTING DOOR.
WARNINGWARNING
A POWERFUL SPRING RELEASING ITS ENERGY SUDDENLY CAN CAUSE SEVERE OR FATAL INJURY. TO AVOID INJURY, HAVE A TRAINED DOOR SYSTEMS TECHNICIAN, USING PROPER TOOLS AND INSTRUCTIONS, RELEASE THE SPRING TENSION.
For detailed information see supplemental instructions “Removing an Existing Door/ Prepar­ing the Opening”. These instructions are not supplied with the door, but are available at no charge from Wayne-Dalton, A Division Of Overhead Door Corporation, P.O. Box 67, Mt. Hope, OH., 44660, or at www.Wayne-Dalton.com.
Preparing the Opening
IMPORTANT: IF YOU JUST REMOVED YOUR EXISTING DOOR OR YOU ARE INSTALLING A NEW DOOR, COMPLETE ALL STEPS IN PREPARING THE OPENING.
To ensure secure mounting of track brackets, side and center brackets, or steel angles to new or retro-fit construction, it is recommended to follow the procedures outlined in DASMA technical data sheets #156, #161 and #164 at www.dasma.com.
The inside perimeter of your garage door opening should be framed with wood jamb and header material. The jambs and header must be securely fastened to sound framing members. It is recommended that 2” x 6” lumber be used. The jambs must be plumb and the header level. The jambs should extend a minimum of 12” (305 mm) above the top of the opening for Torsion counterbalance systems. For low headroom applications, the jambs should extend to the ceiling height. Minimum side clearance required, from the opening to the wall, is 3-1/2” (89 mm).
IMPORTANT: CLOSELY INSPECT JAMBS, HEADER AND MOUNTING SURFACE. ANY WOOD FOUND NOT TO BE SOUND, MUST BE REPLACED.
For Torsion counterbalance systems, a suitable mounting surface (2” x 6”) must be firmly attached to the wall, above the header at the center of the opening.
NOTE: Drill a 3/16” pilot hole in the mounting surface to avoid splitting the lumber. Do not attach the mounting surface with nails.
WEATHERSTRIPS (MAY NOT BE INCLUDED):
Depending on the size of your door, you may have to cut or trim the weatherstrips (if neces­sary) to properly fit into the header and jambs.
3
NOTE: If nailing product at 40°F or below, pre-drilling is required. NOTE: Allow the weatherstrips to return to room temperature prior to nailing to jambs. NOTE: Do not permanently attach weatherstrips to the header and jambs at this time.
For Quick Install track: For the header, align the weatherstrip with the inside edge of the header and temporarily secure it to the header with equally spaced nails. Starting at either side of the jamb, fit the weatherstrip up tight against the temporarily attached weatherstrip in the header and flush with the inside edge of the jamb. Temporarily secure the weatherstrip with equally spaced nails. Repeat for other side. This will keep the bottom section from falling out of the opening during installation. Equally space nails approximately 12” to 18” apart.
For Fully Adjustable track: For the header, align the weatherstrip 1/8” to 1/4” inside the head­er edge, and temporarily secure it to the header with equally spaced nails. Starting at either side of the jamb, fit the weatherstrip up tight against the temporarily attached weatherstrip in the header and 1/8” to 1/4” inside the jamb edge. Temporarily secure the weatherstrip with equally spaced nails. Repeat for other side. This will keep the bottom section from falling out of the opening during installation. Equally space nails approximately 12” to 18” apart.
Headroom requirement: Headroom is defined as the space needed above the top of the door for tracks, springs, etc. to allow the door to open properly. If the door is to be motor operated, 2-1/2” (64 mm) of additional headroom is required.
NOTE: 6” low headroom conversion kit is available for 12” radius only. Contact your local Wayne-Dalton dealer.
Backroom requirement: Backroom is defined as the distance needed from the opening back into the garage to allow the door to open fully.

NOTE: Refer to door section identification, located in the pre-installation section of this manual to determine what size sections you need to use as your bottom section, lock (second) section, intermediate I (third) section, intermediate II (fourth section on a five section door) and top section.
Measure your sections to make sure they are the correct size as indicated on the chart. Using sawhorses lay sections together on a flat smooth surface.
NOTE: Hinges can be identified by the number stamped onto their lower hinge leaf. NOTE: The #1 graduated end hinges serves as end hinges on the bottom section. The #1
graduated end hinges also serves as center hinges on all sections, except for the top section.
NOTE: The #2 graduated end hinges serves as end hinges on the Lock section. NOTE: The #3 graduated end hinges serves as end hinges on the Intermediate I section. NOTE: The #4 graduated end hinges serves as end hinges on the Intermediate II section. NOTE: Depending on your door, single end hinges and short shaft rollers MAY be required on
each end of the bottom, lock and intermediate(s) sections. NOTE: Depending on your door, double end hinges and long shaft rollers MAY be required on
each end of the bottom, lock and intermediate(s) sections. Starting on the left hand side of the bottom section, position the lower hinge leaf of the #1
graduated end hinge over the holes, located at the top of the end caps. Next, align the lower hinge leaf of the #1 center hinges with the dimples at each center location(s), located at the top of the bottom section.
NOTE: Depending on the size of your door, one or more sections may require a strut. Refer­ring to the strutting schedule, determine how many struts your door needs and on what sections they are needed to be installed.
NOTE: Sections noted with “N/A” in the strutting schedule, do not require a strut. NOTE: All strut(s) are placed at the top of the section.
Starting with the bottom section, place the appropriate strut against top of section. Center the strut and align it horizontally with bottom section.
FOR ATTACHING GRADUATED END HINGES ONLY TO SECTION SURFACE: Attach gradu­ated end hinges to the section using (2) 1/4” - 20 x 11/16” self drilling screws at each #1 graduated end hinge and at each #1 center stile locations, as shown.
FOR ATTACHING GRADUATED END HINGES AND STRUT TO SECTION SURFACE: Attach graduated end hinges, strut and strut clips to the section using (2) 1/4” - 20 x 7/8” self drill­ing screws at each #1 graduated end hinge and at each #1 center stile locations, as shown.
Repeat the same process for the graduated hinge attachment / strutting using the appropri­ate graduated end hinges / strutting for all remaining sections. Place the appropriate short or long stem track roller into each graduated end hinges.
IMPORTANT: When placing short stem track rollers into the #2 graduated end hinges and higher, the short stem track roller goes into hinge tube furthest away from section.
Repeat the same process for the graduated hinge attachment / strutting using the appropri­ate graduated end hinges / strutting for all remaining sections.

NOTE: Refer to Package Contents / Parts Breakdown, to determine which Center Bracket(s) came with your door.
NOTE: Prior to fastening center bracket(s) into the door jamb, pilot drill using a 3/16” drill bit. NOTE: Refer to Package Contents / Parts Breakdown, to determine if your door came with a
coupler assembly. If your door came with a coupler assembly, the mounting surface needs to be a minimum of 17” wide. The two center bearing brackets will need to be spaced 12” to 14” apart at the center of the door, as shown.
NOTE: If your door came with (4) springs, each of the outer springs mounting surface will need to be a minimum of 3” wide.
NOTE: If needed, measure the diameter of your springs. If you have a one piece shaft with 3-3/4” diameter springs, they do not share center brackets and do not have a coupler as­sembly.
First, locate the center of the door. Mark a vertical pencil line on the mounting surface above the door, at the center. Measure from the center of the bearing, in one of the end bearing brackets, downwards, to the top the door. Using that measurement, measure that distance upwards from the top of the door to the mounting surface and mark a horizontal pencil line which intersects the vertical pencil line.

PRIOR TO WINDING OR MAKING ADJUSTMENTS TO THE SPRINGS, EN­SURE YOU’RE WINDING IN THE PROPER DIRECTION AS STATED IN THE INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS. OTHERWISE THE SPRING FITTINGS MAY RELEASE FROM SPRING IF NOT WOUND IN THE PROPER DIRECTION AND COULD RESULT IN SEVERE OR FATAL INJURY.
Now, lift door and check its balance. Adjustments to the required number of spring turns stated may be necessary. If door rises off floor under spring tension alone, reduce spring tension until door rests on the floor. If the door is hard to rise or drifts down on its own, add spring tension. A poorly balanced door can cause garage door operator operation problems.
To adjust spring tension, fully close door. Apply vice grips to track above third track roller. Insert a winding rod into the winding cone. On single spring doors, counterbalance lift cable tension must be maintained by placing vice grips on torsion shaft before loosening set screws in the winding cone. Push upward on the winding rod while carefully loosening the set screws in the winding cone. BE PREPARED TO SUPPORT THE FULL FORCE OF THE TORSION SPRING ONCE THE SET SCREWS ARE LOOSE. Carefully adjust spring tension 1/4 turn. Retighten both set screws in the winding cone and repeat for the other side. Recheck door balance. DO NOT ADJUST MORE THAN 1/2 TURN FROM THE RECOMMENDED NUMBER OF TURNS.
If the door still does not operate easily, lower the door into the closed position, UNWIND THE SPRING(S) FULLY (Reference the insert “Removing The Old Door / Preparing The Opening” section on torsion spring removal) and recheck the following the items:
1.) Check the door for level.
2.) Check the torsion shaft for level.
3.) Check the track spacing.
4.) Check the counterbalance cables for equal tension and proper wrap onto the cable drums.
5.) Check the track for potential obstruction of the track rollers.
6.) Clamp locking pliers onto track and rewind springs. IMPORTANT: IF DOOR STILL DOES NOT OPERATE PROPERLY, THEN CONTACT A TRAINED

Maintenance
Cleaning Your Garage Door
IMPORTANT: DO NOT USE A PRESSURE WASHER ON YOUR GARAGE DOOR! While factory-applied finishes on garage doors are durable, it is desirable to clean them on
a routine basis. Some discoloration of the finish may occur when a door has been exposed to dirt-laden atmosphere for a period of time. Slight chalking may also occur as a result of direct exposure to sunlight.
Cleaning the door will generally restore the appearance of the finish. To maintain an aestheti­cally pleasing finish of the garage door, a periodic washing of the garage door is recom­mended.
THE FOLLOWING CLEANING SOLUTION IS RECOMMENDED:
A mild detergent solution consisting of one cup detergent (with less than 0.5% phosphate) dissolved into five gallons of warm water will aid in the removal of most dirt.
NOTE: The use of detergents containing greater than 0.5% phosphate is not recommended for use in general cleaning of garage doors.
NOTE: Be sure to clean behind weatherstrips on both sides and top of door.
CAUTION: NEVER MIX CLEANSERS OR DETERGENTS WITH BLEACH.
GLASS CLEANING INSTRUCTIONS
Clean with a mild detergent solution (same as above) and a soft cloth. After cleaning, rinse thoroughly.
ACRYLIC CLEANING INSTRUCTIONS
Clean acrylic glazing with nonabrasive soap or detergent and plenty of water. Use your bare hands to feel and dislodge any caked on particles. A soft, grit-free cloth, sponge or chamois may be used to wipe the surface. Do not use hard or rough cloths that will scratch the acrylic glazing. Dry glazing with a clean damp chamois.
NOTE: Do not use any window cleaning fluids, scouring compounds, gritty cloths or solvent­based cleaners of any kind.
Painting Your Garage Door
SURFACE PREPARATION FOR PAINTING
Wax on the surface must be removed or paint peeling/ flaking will result. To remove this wax, it will be necessary to lightly scuff the surface with a fine steel wool pad saturated with soapy water. A final wipe and rinse should be done with clean water only to remove any loose particles and any soapy film residue.
Surface scratches, which have not exposed the metal substrate, can be lightly buffed or sanded with 0000 steel wool or no. 400 sand paper to create a smoother surface. Care must be taken to not expose the substrate under the paint. Once the substrate is exposed, the likelihood for rusting is greatly increased.
If substrate is exposed, it must be treated to prevent rust from forming. Sand the exposed area lightly and paint with a high quality metal primer specifically intended for galvanized surfaces to protect the area from corrosion. Allow for drying time on primer can label before applying topcoat.
The surface of the factory-applied finish, that is being painted, must not be too smooth, or the paint will not adhere to it. It is advisable to test in an inconspicuous area, to evaluate adhesion. If poor adhesion is observed, surface preparation for painting the factory-applied finish must be repeated until desired results are achieved. Again, care must be taken to not expose the substrate under the paint.
CAULKING: NOTE: After SURFACE has been properly prepared use acrylic latex plus silicone caulk. Fol-
low caulking label directions explicitly. It must be allowed to dry thoroughly prior to painting.
1. Caulk the top edge of all horizontal stiles to the section (Top, Intermediate(s), Lock and Bottom sections) surface.
CAUTION: DO NOT CAULK BOTTOM EDGE OF ANY HORIZONTAL STILES.
CAUTION: DO NOT CAULK VERTICAL OR DIAGONAL STILES.
2. Caulk exterior overlay to glass in all lite cutouts for lited sections.
PAINTING: NOTE: When painting the section, the paint must not seal the bottom edge of any stiles to
the section surface. After surface has been properly prepared, it must be allowed to dry thoroughly, and then
coated immediately with premium quality latex house paint. Follow paint label directions explicitly. Oil base or solvent base paints are not recommended. Please note that if substrate is exposed and not properly primed, painting with latex paint may cause accelerated rusting of the steel in the exposed area.
NOTES:
1. Re-painting of finish painted steel doors cannot be warranted, as this condition is totally beyond the door manufacturer’s control.
2. Consult a professional coatings contractor if in doubt about any of the above directions.
3. Follow directions explicitly on the paint container labels for proper applications of coatings and disposal of containers. Pay particular attention to acceptable weather and temperature conditions in which to paint.
Wood (Preparation and Painting) These instructions apply to all Wood Doors produced and sold by Wayne-Dalton. The exterior
surfaces, as well as all edges must be properly painted and maintained if satisfactory performance is to be achieved. The purpose for painting is to both protect and beautify the substrates. These requirements for finishing are intended to achieve both functions for reasonable service life of wood doors. Wood doors must be completely finished prior to installation, to ensure that the interior and exterior surfaces, as well as all edges of the doors
19
are properly protected against moisture or other contaminants. Wood doors, in a non-finished condition, must not be transported or stored where the wood surfaces can be exposed to moisture or other contaminants.
Wood (Surface Preparation) All surfaces must be clean, free of dust and dirt and any other contamination. Wood (Painting) Using painter’s tape, tape off all metal surfaces. A premium quality latex house based finish
paint is recommended for use over the factory latex based primer Painting the wood surfaces with at least 2 coats of finish paint over the primer. Follow paint
manufacture’s label directions completely for all coatings. Once finished, remove painter’s tape and touch up where necessary.
Wood (Maintenance and Refinishing) Yearly inspection of all the wood surfaces of the garage door(s) will reveal the extent of
weathering and the need for refinishing. When the finish becomes eroded or thin, clean and prime the areas of deterioration. Follow up with a complete refinishing of the door(s), according to the above directions, as well as the manufacturer’s label directions. Protecting the door(s) from prolonged exposure to moisture and sunlight is vital in extending the service life of your garage door(s).

MADE INOPERATIVE IN THE UNLOCKED POSITION. When connecting a drawbar (trolley type) garage door operator to this door, an drawbar
opener and/or drawbar operator bracket must be securely attached to the top section of the door, along with any struts provided with the door. Always use the drawbar operator and or drawbar operator bracket supplied with the door. To avoid possible damage to your door, Wayne-Dalton recommends reinforcing the top section on models 8000, 8100, 8200 and 9100 doors with a u-bar (may or may not be supplied). The installation of the drawbar opera­tor must be according to manufacturer’s instructions and force settings must be adjusted properly. Refer to the owner’s manual supplied with your drawbar operator for complete details on installation, operation, maintenance and testing of the operator.
Maintaining Your Garage Door: Before you begin, read all warning labels affixed to the door and the installation instruc-
tions and owner’s manual. Perform routine maintenance steps once a month, and have the door professionally inspected once a year. Review your Installation Instructions and Owner’s Manual for the garage door. These instructions are available at no charge from Wayne-Dalton, A Division Of Overhead Door Corporation, P.O. Box 67, Mt. Hope, OH., 44660, or at www.
wayne-dalton.com. For additional information on garage door/operator maintenance go to www.dasma.com and reference TDS 151, 167 and 179.
Monthly Inspections:
1. Visual Inspection: Closely inspect jambs, header and mounting surface. Any wood found
not to be structurally sound must be replaced. Inspect the springs, counterbalance lift cables, track rollers, pulleys, rear back hangs and other door hardware for signs of worn or broken parts. Tighten any loose screws and/or bolts. Check exterior surface of the door sections for any minor cracks. Verify door has not shifted right or left in the opening. If you suspect problems, have a trained door system technician make the repairs.
WARNINGWARNING
GARAGE DOOR SPRINGS, COUNTERBALANCE LIFT CABLES, BRACK­ETS, AND OTHER HARDWARE ATTACHED TO THE SPRINGS ARE UNDER EXTREME TENSION, AND IF HANDLED IMPROPERLY, CAN CAUSE SEVERE OR FATAL INJURY. ONLY A TRAINED DOOR SYSTEMS TECHNICIAN SHOULD ADJUST THEM, BY CAREFULLY FOLLOWING THE MANUFAC­TURER’S INSTRUCTIONS.
WARNINGWARNING
NEVER REMOVE, ADJUST, OR LOOSEN THE BOLTS, SCREWS AND/OR LAG SCREWS ON THE COUNTERBALANCE (END OR CENTER BEARING BRACKETS) SYSTEM OR BOTTOM CORNER BRACKETS OF THE DOOR. THESE BRACKETS ARE CONNECTED TO THE SPRING(S) AND ARE UNDER EXTREME TENSION. TO AVOID POSSIBLE SEVERE OR FATAL INJURY, HAVE ANY SUCH WORK PERFORMED BY A TRAINED DOOR SYSTEMS TECHNICIAN USING PROPER TOOLS AND INSTRUCTIONS.
TorqueMaster® Plus Springs: Pawl knob(s) (located on the TorqueMaster® end brackets above the door) should be engaged to prevent the door from rapidly descending in case of spring failure or forceful manual operation.
Torsion Springs: The torsion springs (located above the door) should only be adjusted by a trained door systems technician. DO NOT attempt to repair or adjust torsion springs yourself.
Extension Springs: A restraining cable or other device should be installed on the extension spring (located above the horizontal tracks) to help contain the spring if it breaks.
2. Door Balance: Periodically test the balance of your door. If you have a garage door drawbar operator, use the release mechanism so you can operate the door by hand when do­ing this test. Start with the door in the fully closed position. Lift the door to check its balance. Adjust TorqueMaster® or Extension spring(s), if door lifts by itself (hard to pull down) or if door is difficult to lift (easy to pull down). DO NOT attempt to repair or adjust Torsion Springs yourself. To adjust TorqueMaster® or Extension spring(s), refer to your installation instructions and owner’s manual. If in question about any of the procedures, do not perform the work. Instead, have it adjusted by a trained door systems technician.
3. Lubrication: The door should open and close smoothly. Ensure the door track rollers are rotating freely when opening and closing the door. If track rollers do not rotate freely, clean the door tracks, removing dirt and any foreign substances. Clean and lubricate (use a non-silicon based lubricant) graduated end hinges, center hinge(s), steel track rollers, bearings and torsion spring(s) (torsion spring coil surfaces). DO NOT lubricate plastic idler bearings, nylon track rollers, door track. DO NOT oil a cylinder lock, if actuation is difficult use a graphite dust to lubricate.

the applicable warranty period. Any labor charges are excluded and will be the responsibility of the purchaser.
This warranty gives you specific legal rights, and you may also have other rights which vary from state to state.

This warranty applies only to Product installed in a residential or other non-commercial application. It does not cover any Product installed in commercial or industrial building applications.

Such excluded damages include, but are not limited to, loss of use, cost of any substitute product, or other similar indirect financial loss.
