FASTEN T-RAIL TO THE OPENER –
Place packing material under the opener to protect the opener cover.
For convenience, place a support under the cable pulley bracket end
of rail.
Remove the (2) washered screws (1) from the top of the opener. Align
holes in back end of the T-rail with holes in opener (2).
Fasten the rail to the opener with the same washered screws and
tighten securely.
Caution: Use only those screws!
Use of any other
screws will cause serious damage to the door opener.

Dispense a few inches of cable from carton and fasten to trolley
with a master link.
Master Link Procedure: Push pins of master link bar (5) through
cable loop (6) and hole in front end of trolley (7). Push cap (2) over
pins (8) and onto notches. Slide clip-on spring (1) over cap and onto
pin notches until both pins are securely locked in place.
Caution: Keep chain taut during installation to help prevent
kinking.
With the trolley against screwdriver, dispense chain/cable around
pulley (4). Proceed back around the opener sprocket (9). The opener
sprocket teeth must engage the chain. Continue forward to the trolley
threaded shaft.
Use the second master link to connect the chain to the flat end of the
threaded shaft (3).
Check to make sure the chain is not twisted.
Remove the screwdriver.
To attach the sprocket cover (10), insert the front tab (12) in the
opener slot. Using needle nose pliers, push together the two halves of
the back tab (11) inserting them on the mounting plate (13). Use

turn the nut, keep the chain from twisting.
When chain is approximately 13mm (1/2") above the base of the
T-rail (5) at midpoint, re-tighten inner nut.
Sprocket noise can result if chain is either too loose or too tight.

the door closed. This is normal. The chain returns to the position

Important: If you have a canopy or dual-track door, you need to
use the instructions packed with The Chamberlain Arm™
Accessory in conjunction with this Owner's Manual when
assembling the T-rail.
ASSEMBLE THE T-RAIL –
Place rail pieces on a flat surface for assembly. The center sections
with tapered ends (5) are interchangeable. So are the end sections
(4). Connect the braces (3) and lock nuts (2) from one side of the rails
and insert the carriage bolts (6) from the opposite side. Then the
trolley will not hit the lock nuts when it is installed.
The square necks on the carriage bolts must be seated in square
holes in rail sections (1).
For canopy and dual-track doors, continue with the instructions
in this manual until Step 12.

Position cable pulley bracket (2) on the front section of T-rail (6).
Fasten securely with: screws (1); lock washers (3) and nuts (4).
When tightening the screws, be sure to keep bracket parallel to
rail (5). Otherwise, rail may bow when opener is operated.

Insert a screwdriver into trolley "stop" hole in the front end of T-rail (6).
Attach trolley threaded shaft (4) to the trolley with: lock washer (2),
and nuts (1 & 3). Slide trolley (5) along rail to the "stop".
