ASSEMBLY STEP 1
Attach the Collar to the Motor Unit
To avoid installation difficulties, do not run the garage
door opener until instructed to do so.
Loosen the collar screws.
Attach collar to either the left or the right side of the

on motor shaft until stop is reached (Figure 1).

(accessible when attached to the torsion bar).
Tighten both sides of collar screws equally to secure
collar to the motor unit (12-14 ft./lbs. of torque)
(Figure 2).
NOTE: For most installations the screws should be facing
