LINTEL BRACKET POSITIONING
11
The lintel bracket must be rigidly fastened to a structural
support of the garage. Reinforce the wall or ceiling with a 40
mm (1-1/2") board if necessary. Failure to comply may result
in improper operation of safety reverse system.
You can attach the lintel bracket either to the lintel wall (1) or to
the ceiling (3). Follow the instructions which will work best for your
particular requirements.
With the door closed, mark the vertical centre line (2) of the garage
door. Extend line onto lintel wall above the door.
Open door to highest point of travel. Draw an intersecting
horizontal line (4) on lintel wall at least 50 mm above high point to
provide travel clearance for top edge of door.
Wear protective goggles when working overhead to protect your eyes from injury.
Disengage all existing garage door locks to avoid damage to the garage door.
To avoid serious personal injury from entanglement, remove all ropes connected to the garage door before
installing the opener.
