Align rail and styrofoam over belt pulley. Cut tape from rail,
chain and styrofoam.

Insert both washered bolts through the rail into the motor unit.
Tighten bolts securely.
Use only these bolts! Use of any other bolts will cause
serious damage to door opener.
Position belt over the motor unit belt pulley.

ASSEMBLY STEP 2
Set the Belt Tension
By hand, thread the spring trolley nut on the threaded shaft
until it is finger tight against the trolley (Figure 1). Do not use
any tools.
Insert a screwdriver tip into one of the nut ring slots and brace
it firmly against the trolley (Figure 2).
Place a 7/16" open end wrench on the square end. Rotate
about 1/4 turn until the spring releases and snaps the nut ring
against the trolley (Figure 3).
This extends the spring for optimum belt tension.
