Door Section Identification
Cotter pin
Graduated end and center hinges are always pre-attached at the top of each section (except top section) and the graduated end hinges are stamped for identification, #1, #2, #3, and #4
(#4 only on five section doors). The stamp identifies the stacking sequence of the section.
The sequence is always determined by #1 being the bottom section to #3 or #4 being the highest intermediate section. If the stamp on the graduated end hinge is illegible, refer to the section side view illustration. The section side view illustration shows the graduated end hinge profile of all sections, and can also be used to identify each section.
The Bottom sectIon can be identified by #1 graduated end hinges, the factory attached bottom astragal, the factory attached bottom corner brackets and by the bottom corner bracket warning labels on each end stile.
The lock sectIon can be identified by #2 graduated end hinges on a 4 section high door and by #3 graduated end hinges on a 3 section high door. Also, on a 3 section door, the lock section will come with a warning label attached to the right or left endstile.
The
IntermeDIate sectIon can be identified by #3 graduated end hinges (Only on a 4 section high door). The section will have a warning label attached to either the right or left hand end stile.
note: #4 graduated end hinges are used on the fourth section of five section doors.
The
top sectIon can be identified with no pre-installed graduated end or center hinges.

For detailed information see supplemental instructions “Removing an Existing Door / Preparing the Opening”. These instructions are not supplied with the door, but are available at no charge from Wayne-Dalton, A Division Of Overhead Door Corporation, P.O. Box 67, Mt. Hope,
OH., 44660, or at www.Wayne-Dalton.com.
Preparing the Opening
Important: IF YOu juST REMOVED YOuR ExISTING DOOR OR YOu ARE INSTALLING A
NEW DOOR, COMPLETE ALL STEPS IN PREPARING THE OPENING.
To ensure secure mounting of track brackets, side and center brackets, or steel angles to new or retro-fit construction, it is recommended to follow the procedures outlined in DASMA technical data sheets #156, #161 and #164 at www.dasma.com.
The inside perimeter of your garage door opening should be framed with wood jamb and header material. The jambs and header must be securely fastened to sound framing members. It is recommended that 2” x 6” lumber be used. The jambs must be plumb and the header level. The jambs should extend a minimum of 12” (305 mm) above the top of the opening for TorqueMaster
®
counterbalance systems. For low headroom applications, the jambs should extend to the ceiling height. Minimum side clearance required, from the opening to the wall, is 3-1/2” (89 mm).
Important: CLOSELY INSPECT jAMBS, HEADER AND MOuNTING SuRFACE. ANY WOOD
FOuND NOT TO BE SOuND, MuST BE REPLACED.
For TorqueMaster
®
counterbalance systems, a suitable mounting surface (2” x 6”) must be firmly attached to the wall, above the header at the center of the opening.
note: Drill a 3/16” pilot hole in the mounting surface to avoid splitting the lumber. Do not attach the mounting surface with nails.
WeatherstrIps (may not Be IncluDeD):
Depending on the size of your door, you may have to cut or trim the weatherstrips (if necessary) to properly fit into the header and jambs.
note: If nailing product at 40°F or below, pre-drilling is required.
note: Do not permanently attach weatherstrips to the header and jambs at this time.
For quick Install track: For the header, align the weatherstrip with the inside edge of the header and temporarily secure it to the header with equally spaced nails. Starting at either
side of the jamb, fit the weatherstrip up tight against the temporarily attached weatherstrip in the header and flush with the inside edge of the jamb. Temporarily secure the weatherstrip with equally spaced nails. Repeat for other side. This will keep the bottom section from falling out of the opening during installation. Equally space nails approximately 12” to 18” apart.
For other track systems: For the header, align the weatherstrip 1/8” to 1/4” inside the header edge, and temporarily secure it to the header with equally spaced nails. Starting at either side of the jamb, fit the weatherstrip up tight against the temporarily attached weatherstrip in the header and 1/8” to 1/4” inside the jamb edge. Temporarily secure the weatherstrip with equally spaced nails. Repeat for other side. This will keep the bottom section from falling out of the opening during installation. Equally space nails approximately 12” to 18” apart.
headroom requirement: Headroom is defined as the space needed above the top of the door for tracks, springs, etc. to allow the door to open properly. If the door is to be motor operated, 2-1/2” (64 mm) of additional headroom is required.
Backroom requirement: Backroom is defined as the distance needed from the opening back into the garage to allow the door to open fully.

Double check to ensure the counterbalance lift cable is aligned in the first and second grooves of the cable drum, see step Lift Cable Adjustments. There are two methods for counting the spring turns as you wind. One method is to identify the black tooth on the ratchet wheel inside of the end bracket. When the wheel makes one revolution and the tooth returns to its starting point, one turn has been made. The other method is to make a mark on the winding shaft (or socket) and end bracket, and count your turns in this manner.
Starting on the right hand side, turn the pawl knob on the end bracket to the upper position. using a ratchet wrench with a 5/8” socket and a 3” extension, wind the spring by rotating the winding shaft counter clockwise, while watching either the black tooth on the ratchet wheel or the mark on the winding shaft.
note: A 3” extension is recommended for added clearance from the horizontal track angle.
Important: PAWL KNOB MuST BE IN uPPER POSITION TO ADD / REMOVE REquIRED

After 2 to 3 turns, remove the ratchet wrench and adjust the counterbalance lift cable on the left side. Ensure counterbalance lift cables are in the first and second grooves of the cable drums, as shown in step Lift Cable Adjustments.
note: Single spring applications require no spring winding on the left hand side, but lift cable tension needs to be adjusted.
Important: COuNTERBALANCE LIFT CABLE TENSION MuST BE EquAL ON BOTH SIDES
PRIOR TO FuLLY WINDING SPRINGS.
see the Winding spring turn chart for the required number of winding turns: for sInGle sprInG applIcatIons:
Return to the right hand end bracket and continue winding the spring to the required number of turns for your door. Place pawl knob in lower position.
for DouBle sprInG applIcatIons:
Either use the black tooth on the ratchet wheel for winding reference or place a mark on the winding shaft and end bracket. Place the ratchet wrench with 5/8” socket and a 3” extension onto the left hand winding shaft end. To wind the spring, rotate the winding shaft clockwise, while watching the black tooth on the ratchet wheel or the mark on the winding shaft. Rotate the winding shaft to the required number of winding turns for your door. Then return to the right hand side and wind the right hand spring to the required number of turns. Place pawl knob in lower position on both sides.
Important: MARK THE NuMBER OF SPRING TuRNS ONTO THE END BRACKET WARNING

note: Windows will cause the top section to be significantly heavier than the remaining sections. Wayne-Dalton attempts to balance the door at the top and bottom. To prevent any sudden door acceleration between the top and bottom, we recommend motor operating all doors with windows. Doors with windows in the top section should not be manually operated.
Remove any vice clamps. Lift the door and check its balance. Adjust spring(s) if door lifts by itself (hard to pull down) or if door is difficult to lift (easy to pull down). Anytime spring adjustments are made, ratchet pawl knob must be in the upper position. An unbalanced door can cause operator or TorqueMaster
®
Plus operation problems.
Close the door and place vice clamps onto both vertical tracks just above the third track
roller. This is to prevent the garage door from rising while adjusting the counterbalance spring(s).
Important: TO ADjuST SPRINGS, ONLY ADD OR REMOVE A MAxIMuM OF 3/10 OF
A TuRN (THREE TEETH ON THE RATCHET WHEEL) AT A TIME. BOTH SIDES NEED TO BE
ADjuSTED EquALLY ON DOuBLE SPRING DOORS.
add spring tension: The ratchet wheel is made of 10 teeth. To add spring tension, ensure the ratchet and socket is set so that it will tighten counter clockwise on the right hand side and clockwise on the left hand side. Place the ratchet wrench with 5/8” socket and 3” socket extension onto the winding shaft, pull down to add 3/10 of a turn. Watch as three teeth of the ratchet wheel pass over the pawl, creating three “clicks”.
remove spring tension: To remove spring tension, place a regular 5/8” wrench onto the winding shaft. Pull down on the wrench to relieve pressure between the pawl and the ratchet wheel. Push in on the pawl to allow the three ratchet wheel teeth to pass by the pawl, as you carefully allow the wrench to be rotated upward by the spring tension, release the pawl to allow it to engage with the ratchet wheel.
Important: BE PREPARED TO HOLD THE FuLL TENSION OF THE SPRING.
Important: DO NOT ADD OR REMOVE MORE THAN 1 SPRING TuRNS (1 SPRING TuRN
EquALS 10 TEETH ON RATCHET WHEEL) FROM THE RECOMMENDED NuMBER OF TuRNS
SHOWN ON THE WINDING SPRING TuRN CHART.
If the door still does not operate easily, lower the door into the closed position, unwind spring(s) completely, and recheck the following items:
1.) Check the door for level.
2.) Check the TorqueMaster

Maintenance
Cleaning Your Garage Door
Important: DO NOT uSE A PRESSuRE WASHER ON YOuR GARAGE DOOR!
While factory-applied finishes on garage doors are durable, it is desirable to clean them on a routine basis. Some discoloration of the finish may occur when a door has been exposed to dirt-laden atmosphere for a period of time. Slight chalking may also occur as a result of direct exposure to sunlight.
Cleaning the door will generally restore the appearance of the finish. To maintain an aesthetically pleasing finish of the garage door, a periodic washing of the garage door is recommended.
the folloWInG cleanInG solutIon Is recommenDeD:
A mild detergent solution consisting of one cup detergent (with less than 0.5% phosphate) dissolved into five gallons of warm water will aid in the removal of most dirt.
note: The use of detergents containing greater than 0.5% phosphate is not recommended for use in general cleaning of garage doors.
note: Be sure to clean behind weatherstrips on both sides and top of door.
cautIon: NEVER MIx CLEANSERS OR DETERGENTS WITH BLEACH.
Glass cleanInG InstructIons
Clean with a mild detergent solution (same as above) and a soft cloth. After cleaning, rinse thoroughly.
acrylIc cleanInG InstructIons
Clean acrylic glazing with nonabrasive soap or detergent and plenty of water. use your bare hands to feel and dislodge any caked on particles. A soft, grit-free cloth, sponge or chamois may be used to wipe the surface. Do not use hard or rough cloths that will scratch the acrylic glazing. Dry glazing with a clean damp chamois.
note: Do not use any window cleaning fluids, scouring compounds, gritty cloths or solventbased cleaners of any kind.
Painting Your Garage Door
surface preparatIon for paIntInG:
Wax on the surface must be removed or paint peeling/ flaking will result. To remove this wax, it will be necessary to lightly scuff the surface with a fine steel wool pad saturated with soapy water. A final wipe and rinse should be done with clean water only to remove any loose particles and any soapy film residue.
Surface scratches, which have not exposed the metal substrate, can be lightly buffed or sanded with 0000 steel wool or no. 400 sand paper to create a smoother surface. Care must be taken to not expose the substrate under the paint. Once the substrate is exposed, the likelihood for rusting is greatly increased.
If substrate is exposed, it must be treated to prevent rust from forming. Sand the exposed area lightly and paint with a high quality metal primer specifically intended for galvanized surfaces to protect the area from corrosion. Allow for drying time on primer can label before applying topcoat.
The surface of the factory-applied finish, that is being painted, must not be too smooth, or the paint will not adhere to it. It is advisable to test in an inconspicuous area, to evaluate adhesion. If poor adhesion is observed, surface preparation for painting the factory-applied finish must be repeated until desired results are achieved. Again, care must be taken to not expose the substrate under the paint.
paIntInG:
After surface has been properly prepared, it must be allowed to dry thoroughly, and then coated immediately with premium quality latex house paint. Follow paint label directions explicitly. Oil base or solvent base paints are not recommended. Please note that if substrate is exposed and not properly primed, painting with latex paint may cause accelerated rusting of the steel in the exposed area.
notes:
1. Re-painting of finish painted steel doors cannot be warranted, as this condition is totally beyond the door manufacturer’s control.
2. Consult a professional coatings contractor if in doubt about any of the above directions.
3. Follow directions explicitly on the paint container labels for proper applications of coatings and disposal of containers. Pay particular attention to acceptable weather and temperature conditions in which to paint.
Fiberglass Refinishing and
Finishing
note: Prior to finishing and/or refinishing your door, refer to the procedures outlined in the
DASMA Technical Data Sheets # 179 and #162 at www.dasma.com.
refInIshInG:
16
The top coat on factory finished door may require a re-coat after 1-3 years if the surface appears chalky or faded. Reapply a top coat as follows: (Always test on a small area prior to top coating the entire door)
1. Clean surfaces with soap and water, mineral spirits or naptha.
note: Light scuffing of surface may be required using Scotch-Brite™ pads.
2. Apply top coat (A high-quality clear polyurethane) following the manufacturer instructions.
fInIshInG:
It is recommended that the door be purchased pre-finished due to the size of the door, required spray equipment and quality problems that could result. Wayne-Dalton assumes no liability for non-factory finished doors. If finishing is performed, use exterior commercial grade finishing kits approved for use on fiberglass or commercially available exterior grade water based or oil based paint. The customer assumes all liability for the finishing.
