PRE-INSTALLATION INSPECTION OF YOUR GARAGE DOOR

PRIOR TO TORQUEMASTER® IDRIVE® INSTALLATION

Congratulations, you have just purchased one of the world’s safest garage door openers! By
design, this opener will detect obstructions and reverse rather than force the door through
obstructions.

installed and balanced properly.

WHEN INSTALLING A NEW DOOR WITH AN IDRIVE

If you just  nished installing a new garage door along with an idrive
these instructions beginning with Step 14 on page 21. If you were referred to these instructions
as part of a new door installation, then proceed with these instructions beginning with Step 1
on page 7.

WHEN INSTALLING AN IDRIVE® ON AN EXISTING DOOR WITH TORQUEMASTER® OR
TORQUEMASTER® PLUS:

Before installing the idrive® opener, open and close you door manually to ensure that it
operates smoothly from top to bottom. A properly balanced door should not take a lot of effort
to open or close by hand. The door should stay in the open and in the closed position without
drifting down or creeping up. If a door opens fast going up, the door may need spring tension
reduced. If the door drops fast going down, the door may need spring tension increased.

To ensure your new idrive® opener works as intended, your garage door must be

opener, then proceed with

If the operation of the door does not meet these criteria, you need to adjust the spring balance
per your door’s Installation Instructions and Owner’s Manual or call a professional installer to
make adjustments before installing idrive®.

If the door operates properly, check and record your Torquemaster® counterbalance spring
settings (for Torquemaster Plus spring settings, see warning tag(s) attached to the end
brackets or refer to your door Installation Instructions and Owner’s manual). Then proceed
with unwinding of the spring(s) for installation of your idrive®, carefully following the
instructions in the appropriate STEP R1 of your idrive® Installation Instructions and Owner’s
Manual. After the idrive® is installed on the Torquemaster® tube, rewind the Torquemaster® or
Torquemaster® Plus to the previously recorded settings.

Instruction manuals are available for download on www.wayne-dalton.com. Use the web site

hinged latch. PULL COUNT ERBALANCE
CABLE SLIGHTLY OUTWARD FROM THE
JAMB to allow hinged latch to pass to the left
of the cable. Pry radially outward with a small
screwdriver on the three tabs (one at a time)
while maintaining pressure on drum wrap in
direction shown to remove. Repeat drum wrap
removal for left side.

Spring Tension Removal

Counterbalance spring tension must be
relieved before removing any hardware.

WARNING

A POWERFUL SPRING RELEASING ITS
ENERGY SUDDENLY CAN CAUSE SEVERE
INJURY.

Starting with the right hand side, ensure
pawl knob is in upper position. Place a
ratchet with a 5/8” socket on the winding
shaft.

NOTE: A 3” extension is also recommended

for added clearance from the horizontal
angle.

To remove spring tension, ensure the ratchet
and socket is set so that it will add tension
(counter clockwise) on the right hand side
and (clockwise) on the left hand side. Rotate
ratchet to relieve pressure between the pawl
and the ratchet wheel. Push in on the pawl
to allow the ratchet wheel teeth to pass by.

NOTE: In the event of a broken spring, it
might not be necessary to unwind spring(s).

IMPORTANT! BE PREPARED TO HOLD THE
FULL TENSION OF THE SPRING.

Gently let the ratchet rotate upward, while
watching the number of teeth on the ratchet
wheel pass by the pawl. Remove 3/10 of a
turn (watch the 3 teeth of the ratchet wheel
pass the pawl). Release the pawl to allow it
to engage with the ratchet wheel. Repeat
this process until all spring tension has been
removed from spring(s). Cables should be
loose and the torque tube should be free to
rotate in either direction.

IMPORTANT! SPRING(S) ARE FULLY
UNWOUND WHEN COUNTERBALANCE
CABLES HAVE NO TENSION.

IMPORTANT! DO NOT USE AN IMPACT GUN
TO UNWIND THE SPRINGS.

Place door in the fully closed position and
remove drum wraps from cable drums (if
installed).

Using a 7/16" wrench, loosen lock nut on
the back of the end bracket. Using a power
drill (high torque/gear reduced to 1300 RPM
preferred), with a 7/16" socket driver,
unwind the right hand winding bolt counter

have a counter assembly on the left hand
side.

NOTE: Spring(s) is/are fully unwound when

counterbalance cables have no tension.

CAUTION: DO NOT USE AN IMPACT GUN

TO UNWIND THE SPRINGS!

NOTE: It is recommended that cable drums

and end bracket assemblies get updated to
current designs for optimal performance.
current end brackets are made of metal
instead of plastic, and counter cover and
worm gears are made of grey plastic, instead
of black and white plastic. If new parts are

and track height will have to be modified for
the opener to work properly. Perform the
following steps:

NOTE: The bottom edge of the track needs to

be spaced 1” above the floor. If the track is
already spaced off the floor 1”, skip this step.

Fasten a nail in the door jamb, between the
door and the track at the ends of each
section. Bend the nail over each section to
hold them in place.

Remove the lag screws from the flagangle and
each jamb bracket. Using a 7/16" socket
driver, loosen the flange nut on the Top
bracket slide. Place a mark 1" up from one of
the tops of one of the jamb brackets. Raise
the track up and align the jamb bracket with
this line. With the track relocated, re-attach
the flagangle, end bracket, and jamb brackets
to the header and/or door jamb. Make certain
to maintain spacing between edge of door and
vertical track.

Installation

Assembling Opener

IMPORTANT! RIGHT AND LEFT HAND IS

ALWAYS DETERMINED FROM INSIDE THE
GARAGE LOOKING OUT.

NOTE: Older versions of the torque tube

have a label applied on the right side that
the opener will not slide over. Check the
location of the label on the torque tube. If
your torque tube has the label located on
the right side, document the information on
the label, then remove it completely using
an adhesive remover or mineral spirits. If
your torque tube has the label located on
the left side, proceed with the following
instructions.

Lay the torque tube on the floor (inside
garage) in front of the door with the labeled
end to the left.

Look into the opener’s left side to ensure
the left hand bearing and the internal (black)
sleeve are aligned with the torque tube
profile.

IMPORTANT! HOLD OPENER BY THE MAIN

BODY. DO NOT HOLD BY THE MOTOR.

right end of the torque tube enters the
internal (black) sleeve, rotate the opener
back and forth slightly to help aid alignment.

Continue sliding the opener onto the torque
tube until the torque tube exits the opener
right hand bearing.

NOTE: Do not force the opener onto the

torque tube if misalignment occurs.

Continue sliding the opener to the center
of the torque tube.

Plug the motor power cord into the opener.

IMPORTANT! WARNING TAGS MUST BE

SECURELY ATTACHED TO BOTH END
BRACKETS.

End brackets are right and left hand. You
can identify the right hand end bracket by
the disconnect cable guide hole in the top
of the bracket.

Beginning with either side, slide the end
bracket onto the winding shaft so that the
grooves in the ratchet wheel fit onto the
winding shaft splines.

Secure end bracket to the flag angle using
(1) 5/16”-18 x 3/4” carriage bolt, 3/4”
washer and hex nut; then secure to the
jamb with 5/16” x 1-5/8” hex head lag
screw.

Repeat for other end bracket.

NOTE: No ratchet wheel is required on the

left hand side for single spring applications.
Only an end bracket is needed.

After completing this step, continue with
