ASSEMBLY STEP 5
TIGHTEN THE CHAIN
1. Spin the inner nut and lock washer down the trolley threaded shaft, away
from the trolley.
2. To tighten the chain, turn the outer nut in the direction shown (Figure1).
3. When the chain is approximately 1/4" (6 mm) above the base of the rail at
it's midpoint, re-tighten the inner nut to secure the adjustment (Figure2).
Sprocket noise can result if chain is too loose. When installation is complete, you
may notice some chain droop with the door closed. This is normal. If the chain
returns to the position shown in Figure2 when the door is open, do not re-adjust
the chain.
NOTES:
l During future maintenance, ALWAYS pull the emergency release handle to
disconnect the trolley before adjusting the chain.
l You may notice loosening of chain after Adjustment Step2 (Test the
Safety Reversal System). Check for proper tension and readjust chain if
necessary. Then repeat Adjustment Step2.
You have now finished assembling your garage door opener. Please read the
following warnings before proceeding to the installation section.
