Complete the following test to ensure your garage door
is balanced and is not sticking or binding:
1. Lift the door about halfway as shown. Release the door. If
balanced, it should stay in place, supported entirely by its
springs.
2. Raise and lower the door to see if there is any sticking or
binding. If your door binds, sticks or is out of balance, call a
trained door systems technician.
Install stop bracket collar
The stop bracket collar should be installed on the opposite
end to where the opener will be installed. Fit the stop bracket
hard against the boss of the door drum.
Ensure that the U-bolt holding the door shaft to the door
bracket is tightly secured.

mark the two hole positions.
2. Drill two 5.5mm holes at the marked positions.
3. Fix the weight bar to the inside of the door with the
supplied 5mm bolts, washers and nuts.
