Installing EZ-SET Spring® System Step 1: Assemble springs with sheaves on the floor. A 3/8" x 1-1/4" hex head bolt and 3/8" flange nut are used to attach the sheaves to the sheave fork. Be sure to attach the small black bushing into the sheave fork flange as shown. (Fig. 1) Step 2: Remove the spring system housing from the package and slide it into the housing bracket. The coiled cable will extend through the upper slot in the housing bracket.

Step 4: Assemble one 5/16" eyebolt with one 5/16" flange nut on each side of the rear track hanger. The eye-bolts should be about 12" above the track to keep the spring assembly from dragging on the track. The eyebolts can be as low as 4" above the track if you have limited headroom. Tighten the 5/16" flange nuts. (Fig. 5) 4" to 12" REPEAT STEP 5 THROUGH STEP 8 FOR BOTH SIDES OF DOOR Step 5: Hook one end of an extension spring over the 5/16" eyebolt and allow to hang down temporarily.

WARNING Keep your head below the track when spring Is under tension or being tensioned as springs are dangerous when fully or partially wound. Wind both springs until the black bushing installed on the flange of the sheave forks covers the red marks on the safety cables. The springs may need more or less tension to correctly balance the door weight. A properly balanced door takes an equal amount of force to lift the door as it does to lower the door. (Fig.
