TESTING THE DOOR
Complete the following test to ensure your door is well
balanced, and not sticking or binding:
• Disable all locks and remove any ropes connected to
the garage door.
• Lift the door to about halfway and then release it. The
door should remain suspended entirely by its spring.
• Raise and lower the door to determine if there are any
sticking or binding points.
• If your door does not hold in place or it binds or sticks,
call a qualified door technician before installing the opener.

door bracket is tightly secured.

fasten the weight bar in place.
