INSTALLATION STEP 13
Connect Door Arm to the Trolley
Follow instructions which apply to your door type as 
illustrated below and on the following page.
SECTIONAL DOORS ONLY
•   Make sure garage door is fully closed. Pull the 
emergency release handle to disconnect the outer 
trolley from the inner trolley. Slide the outer trolley back 
(away from the pulley) about 8" (20 cm) (Figures 1, 2 
and 3).
• Figure 
1:
 
-   Fasten straight door arm section to outer trolley with 
the 5/16"x1" clevis pin. Secure the connection with a 
ring fastener.
 
-   Fasten curved section to the door bracket in the 
same way, using the 5/16"x1-1/4" clevis pin.
IMPORTANT: The groove on the straight door arm MUST 
face away from the curved door arm (Figure 4).
• Figure 
2:
 
-   Bring arm sections together. Find two pairs of holes 
that line up and join sections. Select holes as far 
apart as possible to increase door arm rigidity.
•  Figure 3, Hole alignment alternative:
 
-   If holes in curved arm are above holes in straight 
arm, disconnect straight arm. Cut about 6" (15 cm) 
from the solid end. Reconnect to trolley with cut end 
down as shown.
 
-   Bring arm sections together.
 
-   Find two pairs of holes that line up and join with 
bolts, lock washers and nuts.
•   Pull the emergency release handle toward the opener at 
a 45° angle so that the trolley release arm is horizontal. 
Proceed to Adjustment Step 1, page 28. Trolley will
re-engage automatically when opener is operated.
