Top Bracket Installation

To install the L-shaped top brackets, align the top holes in the top bracket with the first set of holes in the endcap for 9900
Thermowayne™ doors and second set of holes for 9600 Thermogard® doors and 9200/9100 Foamcore™ doors. Fasten
using (4) 1/4-20 x 5/8” self tapping screws. Secure the top bracket slide to the bracket using
(2) 1/4-20 x 5/8” carriage bolts and nuts. Insert rollers. (see Fig. 1)
NOTE: To differentiate between a 9900 Thermowayne™, 9600 Thermogard® and 9200/9100 Foamcore™ door models, look for the following characteristics:
1) 9900 Thermowayne™
(below) will have painted hardware (top brackets, bottom brackets, end caps, etc.) with a steel
backing on the sections.

2) 9600 Thermogard® (right)
will have galvanized hardware, with
a steel backing on the sections.

The idrive™ garage door opener is best installed in combination with the door installation steps. Refer to this
idrive™ installation insert when you reach Step 12 TorqueMaster™ installation, in the main door installation instructions and
owners manual. When instructed to slide the center bracket/bushing onto the torque tube, replace that step with the following instructions below, which will provide the steps necessary to install the TorqueMaster™ system, as well as the preliminary
installation steps for the idrive™ garage door opener.

Power Head Assembly
OPENER POWER
HEAD

Lay the torque tube on the floor (inside garage) in front
of the door with the labeled end to the left. NOTE:
Opener will not slide over a torque tube label.
Attempting to slide opener over the left end of the torque
tube can damage the internal electronics.
NOTE: Hold opener by the main body. Do NOT hold
by the motor.
Look into the opener’s left side to ensure the left hand bearing
and the internal (black) sleeve are aligned with the torque
tube profile. Once aligned, slide the opener power head
onto the right hand end of the torque tube. As the right end
of the torque tube enters the internal (black) sleeve, rotate
the opener back and forth slightly to help aid alignment.
NOTE: Do not force the opener onto the torque tube
if misalignment occurs.

distinct snap is felt. Outboard catch must be engaged as shown. Confirm both snap and catch are fully engaged by
lightly tugging against them. Repeat for the left side.
Refer back to the main door manual and continue door installation at the
REAR SUPPORT INSTALLATION Step 18. (Step 19 in the Single Spring
TorqueMaster™ Installation Instructions)
After door installation is completed, refer to the idrive™ owner’s manual,
starting at the PRE-OPERATION INSTALLATION section to complete
the opener installation.
NOTE: Refer to the main door manual for counterbalance adjustments.

Drum Installation

Drive Gear/End Bracket Installation

Ensure that torque tube is centered and level with door.

Shake the torque tube gently to extend the winding shafts
out about 5" on each side. For single spring applications,
there will be no left hand winding shaft in the torque tube.
Lift the torque tube and rest on top of flagangles. Orient
torque tube so that back of opener is flat against header/
spring pad. See Figure 12
Cable drums and torque tube are cam shaped to fit together
only one way. To install the cable drum, slide the drum
over the winding shaft until the drum seats against the torque
tube. The winding shaft must extend past the drum far
enough to expose the splines and the groove. Align the
winding shaft groove with the round notch in the flagangle.
Repeat for opposite side.

Beginning with the right hand side, lubricate entire
circumference of the drive gear with the oil provided in
the packet. Slide the drive gear onto the winding splines
until it touches the flagangles.
NOTE: No drive gear is required for the left side on
single spring applications.

DRIVE GEAR

Using the emergency disconnect, pull disconnect handle
downwards and place it in the manual door operated
position. Use disconnect label for reference. Motor
will be rotated 90° from its packaged position.

Ensure counterbalance cable tension is equal for both sides
prior to fully winding spring(s) to appropriate number of
turns.
Carefully rotate the winding bolt head clockwise until the
counter show the correct number of turns for your door.
See the chart below. Repeat for the opposite side on double
spring TorqueMster™ systems.
If door raises off of floor remove 1/2 - 1 full turn from
each spring before proceeding.

NOTE: If motor does not pivot 90°, see troubleshooting
section in the idrive™ main installation manual.

Cable Adjustments

DRUM

After spring is wound, hold the lock nut stationary with a
7/16” wrench while rotating the winding bolt clockwise until
snug. Tightening of the lock nut prevents spring from
unwinding. Repeat for opposite side if necessary.

FIRST
GROOVE

Adjust the counter balance cables by rotating the drum until
the set screw faces directly away from the header. Loosen
the set screw no more than 1/2 turn. Pull on the end of the
cable to remove all cable slack. Check to ensure the cable
is aligned and seated in the first groove of the cable drum.
Snug the set screw, then tighten an additional 1-1/2 turns.
Cut off excess cable.

17a

IMPORTANT! Adjustments to the recommended number
of turns may be required. AFTER REAR SUPPORT
ASSEMBLY IS COMPLETE (located in main door manual
instructions), check door balance. If door raises off of floor
under spring tension alone, then reduce turns until door will
rest on floor. A “hot” door such as this can cause idrive™
operation problems.

Wind Counterbalance Springs

Clamp locking pliers onto both vertical tracks just above
third roller. This is to prevent garage door from rising while
winding counterbalance springs.
IMPORTANT! DO NOT USE IMPACT GUN TO
WIND SPRING(S)

LOCK NUT

Beginning with the right hand side. Press and hold in the
canoe clip. Ensure the cable is in the first groove of the
drum. Using an electric drill (high torque gear reduced to
1300 RPM preferred) with a 7/16" socket, carefully rotate
right hand winding bolt clockwise, until counter shows 2-3
turns. This will keep the counterbalance cable taut while
adjusting the left hand side counterbalance cable.
Repeat for left side on double spring TorqueMaster™
systems.
Single spring applications will require no spring pre-winding.

Counter Installation

Locate the spring pad. The spring pad is a vertical running
board directly above the door. Remove (2) 1/4-20 flange
nuts from bottom of opener power head. NOTE: Do not
discard flange nuts. Place the support bracket underneath
opener power head, to the right side of motor, centered on
spring pad.
Level the torque tube to the top of the door section with the
idrive™ resting on the support bracket. Once torque tube
is level, secure support bracket to the spring pad with (2)
1/4 x 2" lag screws.
