HARDWARE INSTALLATION
Standard Single Track or Double Track Sectional Garage Door Method
INSTALLING THE WALL MOUNT BRACKET (See page 5 for component identification)
The diagram below shows how to determine the mounting height and position of the wall mount bracket,
in the case of a standard single track or double track overhead sectional garage door system.
NB!!! The wall mount bracket is one of the components that take the majority of the load in a garage door
automation system. Extra care needs to be taken to ensure the bracket is securely fastened and that
whatever the bracket is fastened to, can withstand force equal to the force of the door when the spring
balancing of the door is removed (snapped)
INSTALLING THE DRAWBAR AND HANGING STRAPS (See page 5 for component identification)
ET DC BLUE ADVANCED INSTALLER 2012.025.12.05.2014

www.et.co.za
TESTING THE MECHANICAL DRIVE AND LINKAGE
It is now possible to test the mechanical movement of the door with the link arm attached and the
sledge/traveller engaged onto the chain drive. The movement of the door throughout its travel should be
approximately the same while pulling the chain around the drawbar, as it is when the chain is not
engaged.
If satisfied that the drawbar is not causing unnecessary drag or hindrance to the door movement, then go
ahead and attach the motor-head to the drawbar. (Page 11)
INSTALLING THE DOOR MOUNT BRACKET (See page 5 for component identification)
Mount the door mount bracket on the inside fascia of the door as shown below. Keep it as in line as
possible with the top guide rollers and centred from side to side of the door.
NB!!! The door mount bracket is one of the components that will take the majority of the load in a garage
door automation system. Extra care needs to be taken to ensure that the bracket is securely fastened.
Whatever the bracket is fastened to, must also withstand a force equal to the force of the door when the
spring balancing of the door is removed. For example if a balancing spring snaps.
INSTALLING THE LINK ARM (See page 5 for component identification)
Close the door fully. Install the curved link arm extension in the door mount bracket using one of the cotter
pins and 25mm long pivot pins supplied. Next using the other 25mm long pivot pin and cotter pin, install
the straight link arm in the traveller/sledge that has been moved all the way to the front of the drawbar.
Finally bolt the curved extension to the straight link arm, so that the two combined form the same angle as
shown below.
This method provides better positive locking of the door in the closed position than the commonly used 45⁰
angled link arm. This method also produces less backward force on the gearbox when trying to compress
the seal at the bottom of the door as the downward force is generated by the link arm camming up and
over the door.

HARDWARE INSTALLATION
Trackless tip-up door
INSTALLING THE WALL MOUNT BRACKET (See page 5 for component identification)
From the top edge of the door in the closed position, measure 275 – 300mm perpendicular to the top
edge of the door. Install the wall mount bracket at this height where it is positioned above the centre of
the door as shown in the diagram below.
NB!!! The wall mount bracket is one of the components that will take the majority of the load in a garage
door automation system. Extra care needs to be taken to ensure that the bracket is securely fastened.
Whatever the bracket is fastened to, must also withstand a force equal to the force of the door when the
spring balancing of the door is removed. For example if a balancing spring snaps.

INSTALLING THE LINK ARM AND HANGING STRAPS (See page 5 for component identification)
Install the front end of the drawbar in the wall mount bracket using the 90mm pivot pin and one of the
cotter pins. Raise the drawbar up and out of the way of the door. Install the link arm into both the
sledge/traveller and door mount bracket using the 25mm pivot pins and remaining two cotter pins.
Prepare and install the hanging straps so that when the door is in the full open position, the link arm lays
180⁰ to the door. Do not use the curved link arm extension in this type of installation. The diagram below
shows the final position of the drawbar when installed and examples of how to prepare the hanging
straps.
TESTING THE MECHANICAL DRIVE AND LINKAGE
It is now possible to test the mechanical movement of the door with the link arm attached and the
sledge/traveller engaged onto the chain drive. The movement of the door throughout its travel should be
approximately the same while pulling the chain around the drawbar, as it is when the chain is not
engaged.

www.et.co.za
ATTACHING THE MOTOR-HEAD TO THE DRAWBAR (See page 5 for component identification)
Insert the splined motor drive shaft into the splined sprocket at the back-end of the drawbar. Swivel the
motor-head around so that the motor mounting straps are able to fit over the drawbar and onto the
mounting studs on the motor-head. Fasten the drawbar mounting straps onto the motor-head using the 4
M6 machine nuts and M6 flat washers.
ATTACHING THE BATTERY TO THE DRAWBAR (See page 5 for component identification)
Making use of the extended length mounting straps and 4 of the M6 Nylock nuts fasten the battery atop
the drawbar as shown below. Remove the sticker covering the battery plug socket on the motor-head
and insert the battery lead plug. The battery plug is moulded in such a way as to only be inserted in one
direction. Ensure the plug is in firmly.
SUPPLYING HOUSEHOLD POWER TO THE MOTOR-HEAD
The DC BLUE ADVANCED © comes supplied with an IEC and SANS compliant 220Vac power cord, 1,5m in
length. Plug the sealed non-serviceable 3 pin 15Amp plug into a certified 15Amp plug socket that is
installed outside of the workings of the garage door system, yet still within reach of the power cord. Ensure
the there is no strain on the cord once installed. Also ensure that nothing will catch or snag the power
cord when the garage door is moving or when people or cars pass below the system.
