Counterbalance Cable
Starting on the right hand side, rotate the
cable drum until the set screw faces
directly away from the header. Torque tube
cam peak should be pointing straight up.
NOTE: Illustrations show the right hand
cable drum, left hand cable drum is
symmetrically opposite.
NOTE: Cable tension is set during the initial
door installation. If there is slack between
the counterbalance cable and the cable
drum or unequal tension between the right
and left hand counterbalance cables, the
counterbalance cables will have to be
readjusted. If there is no slack and cable
tension is equal, proceed to Step 11.
Loosen the set screw no more than 1/2
turn.
Using locking pliers, pull on the end of
the cable to remove all cable slack.
Check to ensure the cable is aligned and
seated in the first groove of the cable drum.
Snug the set screw, and then tighten an
additional 1-1/2 turns. Left side will be
adjusted in Step 12.
IMPORTANT! ENSURE THE CABLE IS
ALIGNED AND SEATED IN THE
APPROPRIATE GROOVE(S) OF THE CABLE
DRUM PRIOR TO WINDING SPRINGS.
Measure approximately 6” of cable, cut off
excess cable, tuck end into cable drum
(Torquemaster
®
) or insert end in hole of
cable drum (Torquemaster
®
Plus).
