With assistance and starting on the left hand side of door, pick up the left hand torsion spring
assembly and slide one end of the torsion keyed shaft through the end bearing bracket. Lay
the other side of the torsion keyed shaft into the center bracket. Repeat the same process
for the right hand torsion spring assembly. Position both torsion keyed shafts so that equal
amounts of the shafts extend from each end bearing brackets.

NOTE: Refer to Package Contents / Parts Breakdown, to determine which Center Bracket(s)
came with your door.
NOTE: Refer to Package Contents / Parts Breakdown, to determine if your door came with a
coupler assembly.
IMPORTANT: THE SPRING WARNING TAG(S) SUPPLIED MUST BE SECURELY ATTACHED
TO THE STATIONARY SPRING CONE(S) IN PLAIN VIEW. SHOULD A REPLACEMENT SPRING
WARNING TAG BE REQUIRED, CONTACT WAYNE-DALTON FOR FREE REPLACEMENTS.
NOTE: Measure the diameter of your springs. If your spring diameter is 3-3/4”, the springs
do not share center brackets. If your spring diameter is either 2” or 2-5/8”, then two springs
will share the same center bracket, unless a coupler assembly is provided.
IF YOU DON’T HAVE A COUPLER ASSEMBLY:
Slide center bracket bushing into the spring. Align the stationary spring cone(s) with the holes
in the center bracket bushing assembly. Secure the torsion spring(s) to the center bracket
bushing assembly with (2) 3/8” - 16 x 1-1/2” hex head bolts and (2) 3/8” - 16 nuts.

IF YOU HAVE A COUPLER ASSEMBLY:
Slide center bracket bushing into the spring. Align the stationary spring cone with the holes in
the center bracket. Secure the torsion spring to the center bracket with (2) 3/8”-16 x 1-1/2”
hex head bolts and (2) 3/8” - 16 nuts. Repeat the same process for the other center bearing
bracket.
At the middle of the two center bearing brackets, re-assemble the coupler assembly by
loosely fastening the coupler halves together using the (3) 3/8” - 16 x 1-3/4” hex head
screws and the (3) 3/8” - 16 nylon hex lock nuts, as shown.
NOTE: Ensure both torsion keyed shafts have equal amounts of the shafts extending from
each end bearing bracket.

Counterbalance Lift Cables
Tools Required: Step Ladder, Locking Pliers, 3/8” Wrench
23
Starting on the left hand side, thread the counterbalance lift cable up and around the front
side of the left hand cable drum.
IMPORTANT: VERIFY THAT THERE ARE NO COUNTERBALANCE LIFT CABLE OBSTRUCTIONS.
NOTE: Always assemble the left hand cable and cable drum first to help maintain equal cable
tension on both sides of the door.
Hook the counterbalance lift cable into the left hand cable drum. Slide the left hand cable
drum up against the left hand end bearing bracket. Counterbalance lift cable should
terminate at the 3 o’clock position. Tighten the (2) set screws in the drum to 14-15 ft. lbs. of
torque (once set screws contact the shaft, tighten screws one full turn).
