Marley Garage Door Problem
I've a problem with my Marley Quickfix garage door that I have narrowed
down to one of the spools/cones that the wires wrap around shearing off from the rod that connects it to the other spool/cone. I can order new cones, wires and roll pins, but I can't find any instructions and fitting them: even the company who supply them merely say 'Marley are a bit different'. How 'different'? Obviously a deal of care is to be taken in releasing the tension, but does anyone know of a correct setting up method? Martin |

Fit it and make a guess at the tension, check the balance, then tension a bit more or less as required. -- Regards, Harry (M1BYT) (L) http://www.ukradioamateur.co.uk |
