• The counterbalance springs on sectional type garage doors must be properly
lubricated between all of the coils with heavy automotive bearing grease
• Failure to adequately lubricate the springs may result in one or more of the following:
• Counterbalance springs may become rusty over time, resulting in additional
operating friction between the coils which may cause the SDO4 to malfunction
• Seasonal temperature changes may cause the garage door springs to expand
and / or contract. The resultant increase and / or decrease in operating friction
may cause the SDO4 to malfunction. Properly lubricating the springs will help to
