Header Bracket
Idler Pulley
NOTE: (Optional) With an existing Craftsman
installation, you may re-use the old header bracket
with the two plastic spacers included in the hardware
bag. Place the spacers inside the bracket on each
side of the rail, as illustrated.
Position the opener on the garage floor below the
header bracket. Use packing material as a
protective base.
If the door spring is in the way you'll need help.
Have someone hold the opener securely on a
temporary support to allow the rail to clear the
spring.
Position the front rail end within the header bracket
and join with a 5/16"xl-1/2" clevis pin as shown.
Insert a ring fastener to secure.
