Step By Step Instructions
Rope Reel Brake
The rope reel brake should be tight enough
to prevent the ropes from free spinning off
the reel while the cover is opening. If you
need to adjust the brakes, use two 7/16”
wrenches or sockets to adjust the tension on
the rope reel.
Roll-up Tube Brake
The roll-up tube brake should be tight enough
to prevent the cover from rolling off the tube
faster than it is being pulled into the track. To
adjust this brake, use two 7/16” wrenches
and tightening or loosening the thru bolts in
the brake block.
Adjusting the Brakes
The mechanism is equipped with two brakes;
one on the rope reel, and one for the roll-up
tube of the mechanism. The brakes are preset
at the factory and should work properly.
To adjust the torque limiter, use a 9/16”
wrench to tighten the first torque limiter bolt
1/2 turn. Run the cover.
If further adjustment is needed, rotate the
torque limiter brake arm to position the
second brake bolt and tighten the second
brake bolt 1/2 turn.

Adjusting the Torque Limiter
The Aluminum automatic cover system is
equipped with a torque limiter that helps
prevent damage to the mechanism. Only if
the motorized mechanism does not extend or
retract the cover will you need to adjust the
torque limiter.
