Installation Instructions
Install Lintel Bracket
It is essential that the lintel above your garage opening have a fixing point
that is made from substantial material (timber, brick, steel, etc). Almost all
the force generated by the automatic operator is concentrated on the Lintel
Bracket, so it must be properly anchored to prevent serious injury and/or
damage. Additional timber should be added to reinforce this area if required
.
Complete the following steps to ensure your lintel bracket is installed in the correct position:
- Determine the center of the door and mark a vertical line on the lintel
- Open the door and find the highest point to which the top of the door reaches. Mark an intersecting horizontal line at least 30mm above this to allow appropriate travel clearance
- Using the intersecting lines, place the lintel bracket with the flat bottom of the flanges positioned at the required height and fix it with appropriate screws (not supplied)
Note: In some instances headroom requirements and the need to avoid
obstructions make it necessary to move the bracket higher.
Attach Manual Release Mechanism to Track
Place the manual release mechanism on top of the thrust block within the
track. Secure with bolts provided.
Adjust the Belt Tension
Tension the belt within the shaft by adjusting the nut clockwise until all
slack is removed from the belt, being careful not to overtighten.
Secure Track to Power Unit
Place the track end over the geared shaft of the power unit and slide down,
ensuring the track and the unit are correctly aligned. Secure the track to the
power unit using the U-brackets and M6 nuts provided.
Attach Track to Lintel Bracket
Make sure to protect the surface of the power unit, attach the track to the
previously installed lintel bracket using the track pin and R-clip provided.
Position Track and Power Unit
Raise the track and power unit and rest it on a ladder (or similar) so that it
sits above the roller tracks. Open the door and confirm there is at least 30mm
clearance between the door and the track. The final position of you track and
power unit should be almost parallel with the open door.
Secure Track and Power Unit to Ceiling
Locate a suitable fixing point above the power unit to secure to the ceiling.
Additional brackets are provided to secure directly above the track should no
suitable fixing point be available.
Measure the distance between the ceiling and the bottom of the track to
determine the length of the ‘L’ bracket required. Cut to length and ensure the
track lines up with the center of the door before securing.
Install Door Hinge, J-Arm and Manual Release Cord
Slide the door back down to the closed position. Ensure the manual release
mechanism is engage before manually moving the carriage toward the lintel
bracket. Lock the carriage into one of the three manual
Use the below examples as a guide when positioning you door hinge and J-arm. Ensure J-arm does not touch bracing etc during normal operation. Attach manual release cord to complete installation.
Once installed, prior to configuring your opener attach the stopping mechanism as shown below with your door in the fully opened position (refer below). This will avoid carriage overrunning during limit and force settings.
Using screw M6.3*20 fix the track with the motor head through the U-shaped buckle for added strength to ensure the machine doesn’t move.

cycle during which the door will open and close and automatically. When the
door is closed after calibration, the limit setup is complete.
Program Force Settings
To ensure your doors Force Settings are correct, place a 40mm solid immovable
object (eg block of wood) in the middle of the opening and lower the door. The
door should automatically reverse when it touches the wood without further
adjustments. If the door doesn’t auto-reverse, complete the following steps to
adjust settings:

Safety Instructions
Installation Information
Before installing the Opener, remove all unnecessary ropes or chains and
disable any equipment, such as locks, not needed for powered operation. Before
installing the Opener, check the door is in good mechanical condition,
correctly balanced, and opens and closes properly. Ensure the Manual Release
cord is installed and accessible without interfering with vehicles.
Permanently fix the warning labels against entrapment in a prominent place or
near fixed controls. Permanently fix the label concerning manual release
adjacent to its actuating member.
Safe Door Operation Methods
When operating the door for the first time ensure the door works properly in
manual mode. Test Method: Pull the cord to unlock the trolley, and open and
close the door manually by hand. Only use remotes when the door is in direct
view and clearly visible. Ensure the remote is out of reach of children and
pets. Do not stand or walk under a moving door. Watch the moving door and keep
people away until the door is completely opened or closed. The operator must
not be used by children or persons with reduced physical, sensory or mental
capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge unless they have been given
supervision or instructions.
Door Inspection Information
Check at least twice a year to make sure the door is properly balanced and
that all parts are in good working order. Frequently examine the installation,
in particular, check cables, springs, and mountings for signs of wear, damage
or may cause injury. All moving parts must be lubricated. Every month check
the door safety auto reversing works when the door contacts 50mm high object
placed on the floor. Adjust if necessary and recheck since an incorrect
adjustment may present a hazard. If it is not functioning properly the door
must be serviced by an authorized Gliderol service technician immediately.
Electrical Information
All wiring and electrical works must be completed by a licensed electrician.
Ensure earthing wire is connected with the earth. If the supply power cord is
damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer, or by its service technician
or similarly qualified person to avoid hazards.
Manual Release Information
Take care when operating the manual release cable since an open door may fall
rapidly due to weak or broken springs or being out of balance. In the process
of unlocking the carriage, there can be uncontrolled movement of doors
- If the spring tension is loose or the spring broken;
- If the door is not balanced;
- If the door is opened manually the carriage can collide with the drive (during building works limit the door run in the opening direction);
- In manual operation, the doors must be operated at a slow speed only.
