Mounting on a Track Type Door
Step 5 - Determine Bracket Position
Open the door and find the highest point of travel of a. 
the top door panel.
Using a level, transfer this height to the wall above the b. 
door (Fig. 13) and mark a line 60mm above it.
Determine the centre point on the wall above and on c. 
top  of  the  door.  Then  draw  two  (2)  lines  extending 
21.5mm from each side of the centre point.(Fig. 14)
Step 6 - Mounting the Wall Bracket
Centre the bracket over the intersection of these two a. 
lines. Mark centres for at least two holes (Fig. 14).
Ensure a  solid mounting  point is behind •
these holes.
Drill holes into the wall with an appropriate sized bit. b. 
Secure bracket to the wall using: c. 
IF CONCRETE OR BRICK - 10mm dynabolts. 
IF TIMBER - wood screw #20 or equivalent   
   (minimum 50mm long).
WARNING: Make sure concrete, brick wall 
or timber lintels are solid and sound so as to 
form a secure mounting platform. 
Step 7 - Attach the C-Rail to the Wall Bracket
Attach the C-Rail assembly to the wall bracket with the a. 
90mm  long  clevis  pin  and  secure  with  the  supplied 
snap pin (Fig. 15).
Leave the powerhead in its packing box for protection b. 
during installation.
Step 8 - Securing the Powerhead to the Ceiling
Raise  the  powerhead  from  the  packing  box  and a. 
support it in the horizontal position with a step ladder 
or support system above the door.
Open the garage  door. Rest the opener  on the open b. 
door  and  use  a  scrap  piece  of  wood  to  bring  it  to 
horizontal level. 
Line up the track perpendicular to the wall.c. 
Secure the perforated angle  (not  supplied) to the d. 
ceiling above where powerhead’s mounting holes will 
be once fully installed.  A representative mounting is 
shown (Fig. 16).
Connect  the  powerhead  to  the  ceiling  mounted e. 
perforated  angle  with  M8x20mm  screws  and  nuts. 
Strips should not extend more than 18mm below 
centre of powerhead mounting holes (Fig. 16).
For an alternative mounting option, go to Step 12.1
WARNING: The opener must be securely 
fastened to structural supports, otherwise 
opener failure may ensue causing serious 
personal injury and/or property damage.
