ESTING THE DOOR

Complete the following test to ensure your door is well
balanced, and not sticking or binding:
• Disable all locks and remove any ropes connected to the
garage door.
•
Lift the door to about halfway and then release it. The
door should remain spring balanced.
• Raise and lower the door to determine if there are any
sticking or binding points.
• If your door does not hold in place or the door binds or
sticks, call a qualified door technician before installing the
opener.

• Place the weight in the centre of the door (as shown).
• Use a pencil to mark the two hole positions.
• If the door curtain does not have a handle you will need
to drill two 5.5mm holes through the two marked
positions, then place the weight bar on the inside of the
door.
• Use the bolts, washers and nuts (provided) to
fasten the weight bar in place.
NOTE: If the door has a lifting handle, remove the
handle, nuts & bolts. Place weight bar over the
handle holes, insert extended bolts through the
weight bar & fasten handle back in place.
