Tools Needed: NOTE: This provides an alternative method
for identifying your door sections/stack
position.
Hinges are always pre-attached at the top
of each section (except top section) and
the hinges are stamped for identification,
#1, #2, #3, and #4 (#4 only on five
section doors). See view below. 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. See views to the right. If the
stamp on the end hinge is illegible, refer
to the section side view illustration to the
right.
The section side view illustration shows
the end hinge profile of all the sections,
and can also be used in conjunction with
identifying each sections.
The BOTTOM SECTION can be identified
by a #1 end hinge, the factory attached
astragal, or by the bottom bracket warning
labels on each end stile. This section is
always the 1st section from the bottom of
the door on four and five section doors.
The LOCK SECTION can be identified by a
#2 end hinge. This section is always the
2nd section from the bottom of the door on
four and five section doors.
The INTERMEDIATE SECTION can be
identified by a #3 end hinge. Sections will
have a warning label attached to either the
left or the right end stile of the section.
This section is always the 3rd section from
the bottom of the door on four and five
section doors.
The INTERMEDIATE II SECTION can be
identified by a #4 end hinge. This section if
always the 4th section from the bottom of
the door on only five section doors.
The TOP SECTION can be identified with
no pre-installed end or center hinges on
the section and the warning label attached
in the upper middle of the section.

FAILURE TO USE APPROVED
WINDING BARS CAN CAUSE SPRING
ENERGY TO BE RELEASED
SUDDENLY, RESULTING IN SEVERE
OR FATAL INJURY.
COUNTERBALANCE SPRING
TENSION MUST BE RELIEVED
BEFORE REMOVING ANY
HARDWARE. A POWERFUL SPRING
RELEASING IT’S ENERGY SUDDENLY
CAN CAUSE SEVERE OR FATAL
INJURY.
Do not release the torsion spring
tension unless you are a qualified and
experienced door technician. Instead have
a professional door agency release the
tension.
Step 1: Close the door and place vice
clamps on the back legs of both vertical
tracks, above the third roller to prevent the
door from lifting as you unwind the springs.
Use only approved winding bars available
from your dealer. Do not use undersized
steel rods, screw drivers or anything else
to unwind the springs. Position the ladder
just off to the side of the winding cone.
The winding cone should be easy to reach
without putting your body directly in front
of it.
Step 2: Insert a winding bar into one of the
holes in the winding cone. Exert upward
pressure. Using caution, loosen the two
(2) set screws in the winding cone. Be
prepared to support the full torsional force
of the spring when the set screws are
loosened.
Step 3: Once set screws are loose, slowly
and carefully lower the winding rod until
it rests against the door. Insert other
winding bar into the upper hole. Push up
and remove lower bar. Carefully lower
upper winding bar, 1/4 turns at a time until
it rests against the door. Repeat process
until all tension is relieved. If your door
is equipped with two (2) torsion springs,
follow the same procedure to relieve
tension on the second spring.
Step 4: Remove vice clamps from tracks,
unbolt torsion shaft assembly and remove
from work area.
NOTE: Continue with “P4” on page 9 after
completing this step.

A TorqueMaster® spring system can be
identified by the end brackets. For single
spring applications, the right hand end
bracket will always have a drive gear,
counter gear, counter cover, and a winding
bolt head. The left hand end bracket will
have no gears, counter cover, or winding
bolt head. The hole for the winding bolt
head will be plugged.
For double springs, both the right hand
and left hand end brackets will always
have a drive gear, counter gear, counter
cover and a winding bolt head.
IMPORTANT: RIGHT AND LEFT HAND IS
ALWAYS DETERMINED FROM INSIDE THE
BUILDING LOOKING OUT.
Step 1: If you have a black counter cover:
Place a mark on the drive gear tooth and an
adjacent mark on the right hand end bracket
(Fig. 1). Loosen the lock nut using a 7/16”
wrench and continue with step 2.
If you have a gray counter cover: Loosen
the lock nut using a 7/16” wrench and
continue with step 2.
Step 2: Using an electric drill (High
torque / gear reduced to 1300 rpm
preferred) with a 7/16” hex head driver,
unwind the right hand winding bolt head
counterclockwise (Fig. 2) and count the
number of turns the mark on the drive
gear passes the adjacent mark on the end
bracket. Referencing the chart below, by
door height, stop unwinding the spring
once the counted turns have reached the
listed number of turns.
6’- 0” Door Height = 14 turns
6’- 3” Door Height = 14 1/2 turns
6’- 5” Door Height = 15 turns
6’- 6” Door Height = 15 turns
6’- 8” Door Height = 15 1/2 turns
6’- 9” Door Height = 15 1/2 turns
7’- 0” Door Height = 16 turns
7’- 3” Door Height = 16 1/2 turns
7’- 6” Door Height = 17 turns
7’- 9” Door Height = 17 1/2 turns
8’- 0” Door Height = 18 turns
CAUTION:
DO NOT USE IMPACT GUN TO
UNWIND SPRINGS.
IMPORTANT: DO NOT REFERENCE THE
COUNTER COVER WHEN COUNTING THE
NUMBER OF TURNS BEING UNWOUND
ON THE SPRING, BUT FOLLOW THE
INSTRUCTIONS ABOVE.
Step 3: Verify that spring tension has been
released by pulling the counterbalance
cable on the right hand cable drum away
from the header (Fig. 3). If spring tension
has been released, the cable will be loose.
In addition, the TorqueMaster® Spring
Tube should be free to rotate in either

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 bearing
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 14” (356 mm) above the top of the opening for Torsion
spring applications. 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 existing jambs, header and mounting surface.
Any wood found not to be sound, must be replaced.
For Torsion spring applications, a suitable mounting surface must be firmly
attached to the wall, above the header at the center of the opening. The
mounting surface must be 2” x 6” lumber minimum (Select southern yellow
pine lumber. Do not use lumber marked as spruce-pine-fur or SPF). The
mounting surface must be securely attached to the wall with four (4) 3/8”
anchors for masonry constructions or four (4) 5/16” x 4” lag screws for wood
construction.
NOTE: Drill a 3/16” pilot hole in the mounting surface to avoid splitting the
lumber. Do not attach the mounting surface with nails.
Weather Seal (May Not Be Included):
Cut or trim the weather seal (if necessary) to the header and jambs.
For quick install track: Align the header seal with the inside edge of the
header and temporarily secure it to the header with equally spaced nails.
Next, fit the jamb seals up tight against the header seal and flush with the
inside edge of the jamb. Temporarily secure the jamb seals with equally
spaced nails. This will keep the bottom section from falling out of the opening
during installation. Space nails approximately 12” apart.
For fully adjustable track: Align the header seal 1/8” to 1/4” inside the
header and temporarily secure it to the header with equally spaced nails.
Next, fit the jamb seals up tight against the header seal and 1/8” to 1/4”
inside the jamb. Temporarily secure the jamb seals with equally spaced
nails. This will keep the bottom section from falling out of the opening during
installation. Space nails approximately 12” apart.
NOTE: Do not permanently attach weather seal to the jamb at this time.
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.
NOTE: 6” LHR Conversion Kit is available for 12” Radius only. Contact your
local Wayne-Dalton dealer.
BACKROOM REQUIREMENT: Backroom is defined as the distance needed
from the opening back into the garage to allow the door to open fully.

Tools Needed:
INSTALLATION
Position a ladder slightly to the side of
spring so that the winding cone is
easily accessible, yet your body is not
in direct line with the winding bars.
Check the label attached to the spring
warning tag for the required number of
complete turns to balance your door.
6’6” Door Height = Approx 7 Turns
7’0” Door Height = Approx 7-1/2 Turns
8’0” Door Height = Approx 8-3/4 Turns
PRIOR TO WINDING OR MAKING
ADJUSTMENTS TO THE SPRINGS, ENSURE
YOU’RE WINDING IN THE PROPER
DIRECTION AS STATED IN THE
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS. OTHERWISE
THE SPRING FITTINGS MAY RELEASE FROM
SPRING IF NOT WOUND IN THE PROPER
DIRECTION AND COULD RESULT IN SEVERE
OR FATAL INJURY.
Alternately inserting the winding bars
into the holes of the spring’s winding
cone, rotate the winding cone upward
toward ceiling, 1/4 turn at a time, until
the required number of complete turns
for your door height is achieved. As the
last 1/4 turn is achieved, securely hold
winding bar while tightening both set
screws in winding cone to 14-15 ft. lbs.
of torque (Once set screws contact the
tube, tighten screws one full turn).
Carefully remove winding bar from
winding cone. Proceed to wind the
second spring in the same manner.
While holding the door down, to prevent
it from rising unexpectedly, in the event
the spring(s) were overwound, carefully
remove the locking clamps from the
torsion tube and the vertical tracks.
IMPORTANT: CAUTIOUSLY REMOVE
LOCKING PLIERS FROM THE TORSION
TUBE AND LOCKING CLAMPS FROM
THE VERTICAL TRACKS.
Adjustments to the required from the
number of turns stated may be

RAISING DOOR FURTHER CAN
RESULT IN DOOR FALLING AND
CAUSE SEVERE INJURY OR DEATH.
Clamp a pair of vice clamps on the
vertical tracks just above the second
roller on one side, just below the second
roller on the other side. This will prevent
the door from raising or lowering while
installing the rear support.
Using perforated angle, 5/16” x 1-5/8”
hex head lag screws and 5/16” bolts
with nuts (may not be supplied), fabricate
rear support for horizontal tracks. Attach
horizontal tracks to the rear supports
with 5/16”- 18 x 1-1/4” hex bolts and
nuts (may not be supplied). Horizontal
tracks must be level and parallel with
door.

MAINTENANCE
Cleaning
Painting
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 weather stripping 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 solvent-based cleaners of any kind.
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.

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.

Lifetime Limited Warranty
Models 9100, 9400, 9600
Subject to the terms and conditions contained in this Lifetime Limited Warranty, Wayne-Dalton Corp. (“Manufacturer”) warrants the sections of the door, which is described
at the top of this page, for as long as you own the door against:
(i) The door becoming inoperable due to rust-through of the steel skin from the core of the door section, due to cracking, splitting, or other
deterioration of the steel skin, or due to structural failure caused by separation or degradation of the foam insulation.
(ii) Peeling of the original paint on the door as a result of a defect in the original paint or in the application of the original paint coating, in cases
where the door sections and the original paint: (a) have not been subjected to adverse atmospheric conditions or contaminates (such as salt water
or other marine environment, or to toxic or abrasive substances, including those in the air); (b) have been maintained in compliance with
Manufacturer’s recommendations; and (c) have not been subject to physical abrasion, impacted by a hard object, or punctured (including
without limitation “paint rub” occurring in metal to metal contact and movement).
The Manufacturer warrants the garage door hardware (except springs) and the tracks of the above-described door, for as long as you own the door, against
defects in material and workmanship, subject to all the terms and conditions below.
The Manufacturer warrants those component parts of the door not covered by the preceding provisions of this Lifetime Limited Warranty against defects in
material and workmanship for a period of ONE (1) YEAR from the date of installation.
The Manufacturer warrants the factory-applied finish and the factory attached stiles against fading and cosmetic changes from the time of installation for TWO
(2) YEARS. If the door is re-stained or re-painted, the TWO (2) YEARS warranty for the factory-applied finish is void. The Model 9400 factory attached stiles are warranted
against peeling, cracking, chalking, or delamination from the time of installation for TWO (2) YEARS.
After a period of TWENTY (20) YEARS, from time of installation, replacement of Lifetime Limited Warranty materials will be pro-rated at 50 per cent of Manu-
facturer’s published list pricing at time of claim, and you must pay this amount.
This Limited Warranty is extended only to the person who purchased the product and continues to own the premises (where the door is installed) as his/her
primary residence (“Buyer”). This Limited Warranty does not apply to residences other than primary, or to commercial or industrial installations, or to installations on rental
property (even when used by a tenant as a residence). This Limited Warranty is not transferable to any other person (even when the premises is sold), nor does it extend
benefits to any other person. As a result this warranty does NOT apply to any person who purchases this product from someone other than an authorized Wayne-Dalton
dealer or distributor.
The Manufacturer will not be responsible for any damage attributable to improper storage, improper installation, or any alteration of the door or its compo-
nents, abuse, damage from corrosive fumes or substances, salt spray or saltwater air, fire, Acts of God, failure to properly maintain the door, or attempt to use the door, its
components or related products for other than its intended purpose and its customary usage. This Limited Warranty does not cover ordinary wear. This Limited Warranty
will be voided if the original finish is painted over, unless Manufacturer’s preparation and painting instructions are followed explicitly. This Limited Warranty will be voided if
any holes are drilled into the door, other than those specified by the Manufacturer.
THIS LIMITED WARRANTY COVERS A CONSUMER PRODUCT AS DEFINED BY THE MAGNUSON-MOSS ACT. NO WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED (INCLUDING
BUT NOT LIMITED TO THE WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE) WILL EXTEND BEYOND THE TIME PERIOD SET FORTH IN UNDER-
