This guide is designed specically for installers who are familiar with the
installation of standard garage door motors, but do not know the specics
of the SDO4 SMART.
8.1 Sectional Doors
Mounting the Header Bracket
Mounting the SDO4 SMART to the header bracket
Mounting the SDO4 SMART drive rail to the ceiling
The SDO4 SMART has been designed to automate domestic garage doors
safely, quietly and reliably.
The product’s chain-driven system allows for whisper-quiet operation,
while reliable battery backup ensures that the SDO4 SMART will continue
working even during lengthy power outages.
In addition, the SDO4 SMART’s built-in collision sensing circuitry makes
it a very safe automation solution. Kits are available for both sectional and
tip-up garage doors.
Identify the garage door type and then select the preferred
installation method and assembly type that is best-suited to the
application.
Determine the highest arcing point of the garage door and mark this
as a horizontal line on the header above the top edge of the garage
door.
Close the garage door, and determine the garage door center line
and mark a vertical line on the header above the door.
Place the header bracket on the wall as shown in Figure 4.
Ensure that the bottom edge of the bracket is level, and no more
than 50mm above the highest arcing point of the garage door.
Mark the location of the four screw holes (Hole A, B, C and
D[optional]).
Place a scher plug in each hole, followed by the header bracket.
Secure it in position with at least three coach screws (supplied)
(13mm hexagonal head).
Ensure that the tabs are level using a spirit level. Gently tap them
with a hammer if they are not
Position the SDO4 SMART in place, with the open end of the drive
rail facing the oor, and the tensioning bracket towards the garage
door. You will need a second person to assist you with this.
Open the garage door, and gently rest the SDO4 SMART on top of
the open door.
Find the centre line of the garage door, and mark it on the ceiling
above the location of the drive rail hanger.
Use a two spirit levels long the length of the SDO4 SMART drive
rail, and level out the SDO4 SMART, so that it is running parallel to
the ceiling.
Place another spirit level perpendicular to the ceiling, and line it up
with the center of the drive rail hanger bolt on the side of the drive
rail hanger. Make a mark on the ceiling, and repeat this for the other
side of the drive rail hanger.
Draw a line on the ceiling joining these two marks, perpendicular to
the garage door center line made earlier.
Align the punched angle iron centered onto the garage door centre
line, and the perpendicular line running along the center of the
horizontal face holes.
The horizontal face must face the back of the garage.
Secure the punched angle iron to the ceiling with suitable screws
(depending on the structural member of the ceiling).
Level the SDO4 SMART again, and measure the length needed from
the ceiling to the underside of the drive rail (Value X).
Locate the long clevis pin through the holes and secure it into
position with a supplied Circle Clip on the other end of the clevis pin.
Sectional doors
• Use a 3247mm one-piece drive rail
• The standard 3247mm drive rail will lift a door up to 2440mm
high. (An optional drive rail extension kit is available for doors
over 2440mm high)
• The SDO4 SMART is supported by the drive rail hanger which is
hung from the ceiling using appropriate hanging material
• The drive rail must be parallel with the ceiling as shown
in Figure 1.
• The header bracket may be mounted on the front wall of the
garage or on the ceiling adjacent to the front wall
Tip-Up doors
• Use a 2097mm one-piece drive rail
• The SDO4 SMART is supported by the drive rail hanger which is
hung from the ceiling using appropriate hanging material
• The drive rail must be angled, so that the pivot points at each end
of the connecting arm should be as close to horizontal as possible
when the door is in the fully open position
• The header bracket may be mounted on the front wall of the
garage or on the ceiling adjacent to the front wall
This icon indicates warning, caution or attention!
Please take special note of critical aspects that MUST
be adhered to in order to prevent injury.
Mounting the drive rail more than 50mm above the
highest arcing point of the garage door may cause the
drive rail to ex excessively.
Always recommend the tment of additional safety equipment
such as safety edges and safety beams, for additional protection
against entrapment or other mechanical risks.
Ensure that no pipes or electrical cables are in the way of the
intended installation.
Install the garage operator only if:
• It will not pose a hazard to the public
• The installation will meet all municipal and/or local authority
requirements once completed
• The door mass and application is within the operator specications
• There is a properly-earthed general purpose 220-240V AC power
outlet that has been installed by a qualied electrical contractor
• All locks, ropes and / or securing mechanisms have been removed
• The ceiling structure is adequate enough to support the weight of
the SDO4 SMART
• The garage door is in good working order, meaning:
• it opens freely;
• it is well-balanced;
,
• it does not move on its own if left in any position for more
than 100mm;
• it can be installed to have sucient clearance between moving
parts when opening or closing to reduce the risk of personal
injury and / or entrapment

3. Icons used in this manual
This icon denotes variations and other aspects that
should be considered during installation.
Ensure that the drive rail hanger bracket is positioned directly
under a strong structural member of the ceiling.
If it is not, move it along the drive rail to a suitable position
before marking it o on the ceiling.
Attempting to repair the garage door without suitable
technical qualications, may result in severe personal
injury, death, and / or property damage.
An improperly-balanced or malfunctioning garage door
could cause serious personal injury, death and / or
property damage. Have a qualied person check and,
if required, make repairs to the garage door before
installing the SDO4 SMART.
