Installation Instructions

a. Check to make sure your girt is level as the door opens and closes.
b. Fasten the cincher plate to the jamb such that the vertical pin is near the middle of the girt and the strap is angled
slightly upward, about 5º, toward the door. The bottom of the pin should be about 1/2” above the girt. If your girt is
not level, you may need to raise (or lower) the plate before fastening it to the jamb.
NOTE: In this application you should mount the Cincher so that the flat part of the black plate is against the jamb.
c. Fasten the edge of the cincher rail nearest to the boot. It should be flush with the edge of the girt, but must not
protrude beyond the girt.
d. Pull the door in toward the building. At the same time, push the other end of the cincher rail against the pin and
securely fasten it to the girt.
e. Before placing screws in the remaining cincher rail holes, check the motion of the door. The pin should contact the
cincher rail in the last few inches of travel. The door should be tight enough that it doesn’t move in and out, but not
so tight that it restricts door movement.
If necessary. adjust the angle of the cincher rail. Once you are satisfied with the angle, use screws in the remaining
cincher rail holes to secure the rail.
STEP 15 – Programming the Wall Station & Remote
Press the learn button (1) once on the control housing. The LED (Radio) is solid.
Press a desired transmitter (remote or wall station) button. The LED (Radio) flashes briefly. If the LED (Radio) lights
up for a second, the transmitter has been learned.
Programming additional transmitters. Repeat the above steps. A maximum of 20 button/storage locations for each
radio receiver are available.
If no radio code is received within 10 seconds, the learning process is interrupted and has to be started again if
necessary.
STEP 16 – Test the System.
Wind Warning: Never open doors covering more than one opening at a time! Due to the size and construction
of sliding doors and the effect of wind on these doors, it is critical that only one building opening be open at
a time.
For example, many buildings have an opening on an end wall and another opening on a side wall. The side
wall door(s) must be closed before you open the end wall door(s). Similarly, the end wall door(s) must be
closed before you open the side wall door(s).
Failure to follow these instructions could result in serious or fatal injuries and significant damage to your
building, as well as your Propel Doors system. Please note that wind damage is not covered by your Propel
Doors warranty.
a. Attach the following warning labels: finger pinch sticker (cincher plate); foot hazard sticker (lower gusset),
b. Manually open and close the door completely. check if the door runs easily.
c. Make sure all screws and attachments are tight.
d. Engage the motor by pulling the emergency release cord.
e. Plug in the controller.
Operating the opener with the transmitter
The transmitter has a range up to 100 ft (30 m) depending on the surrounding area. When closed, the transmitter is
protected by a stainless steel case to prevent an unintended operation.
a. To access the buttons, slide the transmitter body out of the stainless steel case. There are positions for each
button (a total of 4 buttons).
b. To close the transmitter body, slide it back into the stainless steel case up to the stop position.
Opening, closing, and stopping the door
In order to operate the opener using the transmitter, this opener function first has to “learn in” the code of a particular
transmitter. See “Program the transmitter”.
a. To open and close the door, press the corresponding button on the transmitter one time (e.g. button 1). Depending
on the starting position, the door either opens or closes. The light switches off automatically after 180 seconds.
b. To stop the door, press the corresponding transmitter button during the open/close procedure.
Pressing the transmitter button again causes the door to move back to its respective starting position.
