 Owner Installation Instructions
Step 5 - Mounting the Opener
If the internal gear does not rotate freely, switch the 
opener to manual by pulling the disengagement 
handle down (there will be a click), so that the ring 
gear can be rotated by hand.
Slide the opener over the door axle and into the 
drum of the door (Fig. 09).
Ensure the internal gear is pushed in as far as 
possible (without interfering with the door curtain) 
and that one of the door drum’s wheel spokes is 
completely between the opener’s drive forks.
Re-attach the door bracket using your reference 
marks as a guide and tighten the bolts. Ensure that 
the slots in the mounting bracket of the opener 
align with the slots in the door bracket, otherwise 
the door bracket may have to be relocated (Fig. 
10).
NOTE: If the bracket cannot be relocated, the opener 
may be fi tted onto the axle using the opener’s saddle 
and U-bolt as follows:
Using your reference marks as a guide, 
sit the opener on the door mounting 
bracket and secure with the opener’s U-
bolt and saddle and tighten fi rmly.
Adjust the door position (if necessary) 
on the brackets so that the door feeds 
smoothly into the guides. Make sure that 
the centre of the door doesn’t hit the 
lintel and that the curtain is not pushed 
forward hard into the guide.
Remove the support and safety ropes (Fig. 10).
IMPORTANT NOTE - If the manual release handle 
is more than 1.8 metres from fl oor level when the 
opener is installed, extend the handle to a height 
less than 1.8 metres.
Connect the power cord to a suitable power point, 
but DO NOT SWITCH ON. Secure the power cord 
away from any moving object (e.g. the door) with 
the cable clip supplied.
With the opener still disengaged, pull the door up 
and down to make sure it runs freely.
