WARNING PREPARATION WARNING CAUTION It is imperative that the wall or mounting surface provide adequate support for the operator. This surface must: a. Be rigid to prevent play between operator and door shaft. b. Provide a level base. c. Permit the operator to be fastened securely and with the drive shaft parallel to the door shaft. The safety and wear of the operator will be adversely affected if any of the above requirements are not met. For metal buildings, fasten 2" x 2" x 3/16" (or larger) angle iron frames to the building purlins. Retain 5-1/2" (13.97 cm) between frames.
