    • C
      Christopher JacksonSep 12, 2025
      If your Xtreme Garage Garage Door Opener hums as the Trolley hits the Trolley Stop Bolt in open travel, follow these steps: 1. Make sure the Trolley is towards the Trolley Stop Bolt. 2. Disconnect the Trolley by using the Emergency Release. 3. Close the door manually. 4. Relieve the chain tension by loosening both the Chain-to-Cable Connector and the Flange Nut. 5. Operate the Opener so the Trolley Shaft travels towards the door (Trolley should be kept disconnected). 6. Decrease Open Travel Limit by 2 full turns. 7. Re-tighten the chain until it is 1/4” (6mm) above the base of rail. 8. Repeat the above steps if the Trolley still hits the Stop Bolt.
