1. Carefully inspect the counterbalance lift cables on the door. If they are worn,
frayed or broken, contact a qualied door service company to replace the
counterbalance lift cables before installing the cable keepers.
2. Push spacer onto the shaft between the short stem track roller and the bottom
corner bracket. Use an additional spacer if needed to achieve a minimum of
1/2” clearance FIG-1.
3. If there is less than 1/2” clearance, loosen the lag screws attaching the track to
the wall and adjust the track for the 1/2” clearance. Re-tighten the lag screws.
4. Position the right hand (black) cable keeper assembly directly above the
garage door bottom corner bracket. WARNING - DO NOT loosen or remove
bottom corner bracket screws.
5. The cable keeper assembly must extend 1/8” past the end of the door section. Ensure there is no more than 4-1/2” from the bottom edge of the door to bottom of cable keeper FIG.2.
IMPORTANT: RIGHT AND LEFT HAND IS ALWAYS DETERMINED FROM INSIDE THE BUILDING LOOKING OUT.
6. Fasten the cable keeper assembly with (2) 1/4” - 22 x 11/16” self drilling screws (wood doors will use (2) 1/4” x 1” lag screws). Once the cable keeper assembly is secured to the bottom
section FIG. 3.
7. Place the plastic sleeve over the counterbalance lift cable and then rotate the cable keeper arm upward and attach it to the plastic sleeve FIG. 4.
8. Repeat the same process for the left hand (Red) cable keeper assembly.
NOTE: It is recommended that wood doors be pre-drilled with 1/8” pilot holes prior to fastening.

IMPORTANT PRE-INSTALLATION CONSIDERATIONS
Critical Measurements:
This opener can be installed left or right handed.
Critical measurements must be taken to ensure this opener will t the intended door.
This opener will directly couple onto torsion shafts, solid or tubular, of 1 inch in diameter with or without a keyway. (X)
Measure the distance between the torsion bar centerline to the wall. This dimension must be between 2-1/2” and 6”. (A)
The torsion bar shaft must protrude no less than 2-1/4” from bearing plate. (B)
A standard 115 VAC grounded electrical outlet will be required within 6 feet of the bottom of the opener.
Torsion bar centerline to the ceiling must be at least 2-1/4” for clearance. (C) NOTE: Headroom required is less than
smallest standard drum (400.8).
End of torsion shaft to side wall clearance must be at least 7 in. for clearance (D)
Important Compatibility Considerations:
Door Inspection:
If the intended door meets the above requirements, inspect the door for proper balance
and general condition.
• Raise and lower the door manually. Door should move freely and smoothly.
