INSTALLATION STEP 4
Hang the Opener
THE OPENER MUST BE SECURELY FASTENED TO A STRUCTURAL SUPPORT OF THE GARAGE.
Three representative installations are shown. Yours may be different. Hanging brackets should be angled (Fig.1)
or crossed (Flg.2) to provide rigid support. On finished ceilings (Fig.3), attach a sturdy metal bracket (not supplied) to
ceiling joists before installing opener.
PROCEDURE: Measure the distance from EACH side of
the opener to the structural support.
Cut both pieces of the hanging bracket to required
lengths. Flatten one end of each bracket and bend or
twist to fit the fastening angles. Do not bend at the
bracket holes. Drill 3/16" pilot holes in the structural
supports. Attach flattened ends of brackets to supports
with 5/16" x1-7/8" lag screws.
Lift opener and fasten to hanging bracket as shown.

REMOVE 2x4. Operate door manually. If door hits the
rail, raise header bracket.
