INSTALLATION STEP 3

Attach the Rail to the Header Bracket

NOTE:

(Optional) With some existing installations, you may

re-use the old header bracket with the two plastic spacers

included in the hardware bag. Place the spacers inside the bracket

on each side of the rail, as illustrated.

• Position the opener on the garage floor below the header

bracket. Use packing material as a protective base.

NOTE:

If the door spring is in the way you’ll need help. Have

someone hold the opener securely on a temporary support to

allow the rail to clear the spring.

• Position the rail bracket against the header bracket.

• Align the bracket holes and join with a clevis pin 5/16"x1-1/2"

as shown.

• Insert a ring fastener to secure.
