M2 ASSEMBLY GUIDE
4. Attach the motor mounts on each edge of the top
beam, flush with the ends. Use one D1 screw on front
and four on top.
5. Place motor in left bracket, with cylindrical end
toward center. Slide lock E4 washers over E3 screws
and fasten screws through the front of the motor with a
Phillips Screwdriver.
6. Attach E1 motor sprocket by inserting the E2 grub
screw into the gear hole, aligning with the flat side of
the motor shaft, and tightening with E5 Allen wrench to
prevent slipping.
7. Repeat steps 5 and 6 to mount the motor on right
side.
1. Measure the distance from the ground to the bottom of the stud mount. Attach the other wasteboard stud
mount to the stud on the opposite side at the exact same height.
2. Lean your wasteboard against the stud mounts and arrange it until it is level across the top. Clamp the
wasteboard to the stud mounts and mark 10” up from the top of your wasteboard on the wall above each
stud mount. This will be where the bottom of the top beam stud mounts will attach to the wall and ensure the
required 18” distance between your wasteboard top edge and the top of the to be installed motor sprockets.
3. Measure and mark the exact middle of the 10’ top beam. Repeat on your wasteboard. Then measure how far
the wasteboard stud mounts are from its center. Mark the equal distance on your top beam, to ensure your top
beam will be centered with your wasteboard. Attach the stud mounts to the 10’ top beam with D1 screws and
a speed square. Ensure that they are the same distance up from the bottom of your beam, and the larger end is
placed to be closest to the ground. Pilot holes that are 0.5” from the bottom edge can help.
