STEP 2 Fasten the rail to the motor unit
To avoid SERIOUS damage to garage door opener, use ONLY those bolts/fasteners mounted in the
top of the opener.
1. Insert a 1/4"-20 x 1-3/4" bolt into the cover protection bolt hole on the back end of the rail as
shown. Tighten securely with a 1/4"-20 lock nut. DO NOT overtighten.
2. Remove the bolts from the top of the motor unit.
3. Use the carton to support the front end of the rail.
4. Place the "U" bracket, flat side down onto the motor unit and align the bracket holes with the
bolt holes.
5. Fasten the "U" bracket with the previously removed bolts; DO NOT use any power tools. The
use of power tools may permanently damage the garage door opener.

pass approximately 12" (30 cm) of belt through the window. Keep the ribbed side toward the
rail, and allow it to hang until Assembly Step 4.

4. Insert the idler bolt from the top through the rail and pulley. Tighten with a 3/8" lock washer
and nut underneath the rail until the lock washer is compressed.
