To avoid installation difficulties, do not run the door operator until
instructed to do so.
•

Position the collar so that the screws are facing up (accessible when
attached to the torsion bar).
•
Tighten both sides of collar screws equally to secure collar to the
motor unit (16Nm-19Nm . of torque).
