Tip: Make sure door opens and closes smoothly.
Check door opening and closing. If door does not open easily or
falls too quickly, check spring cable routing. The cable is held in
place by “shoulders” on the pulley. Check to be sure cable has
not slipped over the pulley shoulders and is routed as shown.
