IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR INSTALLATION
Warning: Incorrect installation can lead to severe injury. Follow ALL installation instructions.

SIDE ROOM REQUIREMENTS
Fig. 1 shows the minimum and recommended side room that is required to mount the opener. The distance between the edge of the door curtain and the inside of the bracket must be at least 40mm. However, for easier access it is recommended that at least 95mm is allowed.

1. CHECK OPERATION OF DOOR BEFORE BEGINNING THE INSTALLATION OF THE EASYROLLER AUTOMATIC OPENER CHECK THE OPERATION OF THE DOOR.
The door must be well balanced and be in a reasonable operating condition. You should be able to lift the door smoothly and with little resistance. It should stay open around 900mm to 1200mm above the floor. The door should not stick or bind in the guide tracks. The ideal operational effort in raising or lowering the door should not exceed a force of 10kg (22 lbs.). Make sure that all door locks, ropes, chains etc. are either released, or disabled and remove unnecessary accessories.

2. FIXING OF DOOR WEIGHT BAR
Move the door manually to the mid open position. Place the weight bar on the bottom rail, in the middle of the door and secure with the fasteners provided (Fig. 2). Check the operation of the door again. If the door feels heavy it may require extra tension to be added to the door springs. Refer to the door Installation manual from the manufacturer on how to tension the door.

3. INSTALLING LOCKING BAR COVERS
To protect against entrapment of fingers etc. inserted into door guides – remove the protective backing of the double sided tape and install the locking bar covers over the holes in each door guide.
