INSTALLATION—ANCHORING METHODS
ANCHORING METHODS
Correct anchoring of the side columns to the wall and
the floor is important for the smooth and safe operation
of the door. The wall material should be strong enough
to support the weight of the door and all wall anchors.
Figure 3 through Figure 6 show anchoring methods for
various types of walls. Use the method that is best
suited for your particular installation site.
All necessary anchoring hardware and material required
for the installation of this door is the responsibility of the
door owner. If you have any questions, call your Rytec
representative or the Rytec Customer Support Depart-
ment at 800-628-1909.
NOTE: Use ¹₂-in. diameter threaded through bolts
or ¹₂-in. diameter threaded rods to anchor
the door to all wall applications. Use ¹₂-in.
diameter concrete anchor bolts to anchor
the door to a concrete floor or wall.
If expansion anchors are used, a quarterly
inspection should be implemented for safe
and secure door operation.

INSTALLATION—LOCATING CENTERLINE OF DOOR OPENING
LOCATING CENTERLINE OF DOOR OPENING
NOTE: Accurate measurements are critical for the
proper installation and operation of your
Rytec door. Verify all measurements.
1. Measure the width of the door opening.
2. Divide the measurement in half to locate the center-
line. Then mark the centerline along the floor.
(See Figure 7.)
Figure 7
LOCATING SIDE COLUMNS
1. Locate the layout drawing of the door. It should be
attached to the small parts carton packed inside the
shipping crate. This drawing identifies the produc-
tion width of your door.
2. Using the centerline as a reference point, lay out
and mark half of the door’s production width along
the floor. (See Figure 8.)
This door is equipped with a breakaway
bottom bar assembly. To ensure that it
works properly, the width of the door
opening must not be smaller (narrower)
than the production width of the door. If
the width of the opening is narrower than
the width of the door, do not proceed with
the installation. Contact your Rytec repre-
sentative or Rytec Customer Support
Department at 800-628-1909.
Figure 8
3. With a carpenter’s square placed against the wall,
mark both sides of the door along the floor. Extend
the line along each edge.
4. Check the floor for level across the door opening.
The floor must be level within 0.12 in. from side-to-
side. If one side of the opening is higher than the
other, a shim under the side panel will be required.
Figure 9 and Figure 10 show two methods that can
be used to ensure level side columns.
NOTE: Contact the Rytec Customer Support
Department if the floor is more than 1 in.
out of level.

Figure 10
SIDE COLUMNS
NOTE: DO NOT change the location of the drive
motor without first contacting your Rytec
representative or the Rytec Customer
Support Department at 800-628-1909.
1. Remove the drive motor side column from the ship-
ping crate. The drive motor side column is identified
by the seal edge that faces inward during installa-
tion for a left-hand-side motor mounting.
(See Figure 11.)
Figure 11
2. Stand the drive motor side column on the floor and
tight against the wall to determine which side of the
door to place the side column.
3. Align the inside edge of the side column with the
production width line laid out earlier on the floor.
The side column must be located on the outside
edge of the layout line. (See Figure 12.)
Figure 12
It is critical that the side columns are
mounted level and square to the wall and
floor, both vertically and horizontally. A
4-ft. level and carpenter’s square are rec-
ommended for this procedure.
The use of bar clamps to secure the side
columns to the wall during installation is
recommended, as these hold the columns
securely in place, while allowing for slight
adjustments of either side column during
the installation of the head assembly.
NOTE: All necessary anchor hardware and mate-
rial is the responsibility of the door owner.

4. Once the side column is properly positioned, secure
it to the wall using the appropriate anchors. (See
“ANCHORING METHODS” on page 3.) Anchor
holes have been provided in the side column. (See
Figure 12.) DO NOT tighten the anchor hardware at
this time.
NOTE: Use ¹₂-in. diameter expansion shell stud-
type anchors for concrete walls or ¹₂-in.
diameter threaded through bolts for brick
walls and other applications where expan-
sion bolts are not acceptable.
Use a tape measure to ensure that proper
width alignment is maintained between the
side columns, at the top and bottom ends
of each column. DO NOT tighten the
anchors at this time.
5. Mount the other side column to the wall in the same
manner as outlined above for the first side column.
SIDE COLUMN MOTOR SUPPORT
On doors greater than 14 feet tall (or wide),
a side column motor support will be sup-
plied with the small parts box as seen in
Figure 13. Failure to install this part prop-
erly may result in equipment failure and/or
personal injury.
Figure 13
IMPORTANT: For doors that are oversized
beyond 14 ft. in height (or width)
should have a side column
motor support included in the
small parts box.
SPREADER ASSEMBLY

4. Check that the side columns are plumb and square
with the floor and wall.
5. Tighten all anchor hardware securing both side col-
umns to the wall.
6. Remove any bar clamps that may have been used
to temporarily hold the side columns to the wall.
HEAD ASSEMBLY
1. Before removing the head/fabric roll assembly from
the shipping crate, locate four ¹₂-13 x 1¹₄-in. ser-
rated-flange hex screws, four ¹₂-13 serrated-flange
nuts, and the flange bearing assembly in the small
parts carton.
NOTE: The ¹₂-13 x 6-in. hex screws that were
installed earlier will be used to attach the
head assembly to the side columns.
Also, some oversized doors require a
steel spacer between both side columns
and the head assembly. If your door is
oversized, locate two 9-in. x 1³₄-in. steel
spacers shipped in the small parts carton.
(The spacers are further identified by a
hole at each end.)
2. Remove the head/fabric roll assembly from the
shipping crate.
Before the head/fabric roll assembly is
lifted into place, make sure both side col-
umns are secured to the building wall.
Also, the head/fabric roll assembly must
be secured to the forklift before lifting it in
place. Failure to properly secure the side
columns or the head/fabric assembly can
result in serious personal injury and prop-
erty damage. DO NOT remove the forklift
from under the head/fabric roll assembly
until it is secured to both side columns.
Use care when handling the fabric roll to
ensure that the fabric is not torn or dam-
aged. DO NOT remove the shipping bands
holding the fabric to the roll.
IMPORTANT: Install the head/fabric roll
assembly with the bottom bar/
fabric roll coming off the back of
the drum assembly.
3. Using a forklift, lift the head/fabric roll assembly in
place.
4. Position the head assembly in front of the pair of
holes near the top of each side column. Align the
holes in the motor mounting bracket with the holes
in the side column. (See Figure 18.)
IMPORTANT: If your door is oversized, two
large spacers were included in
the small parts carton. Failure to
install a spacer between the
motor mounting bracket and
flange bearing assembly could
result in damage to the door.
(See Figure 18 and Figure 19.)
5. Attach the motor mounting bracket to the side col-
umn using two ¹₂-13 x 1¹₄-in. serrated-flange hex
screws and nuts (or two ¹₂-13 x 2-in. screws and
nuts if spacers are required, or nuts only if 6-in.
screws were installed earlier). DO NOT tighten the
hex nuts at this time. (See Figure 18.)
Figure 18
6. Slide the flange bearing assembly over the drum
shaft at the non-drive end of the head/fabric roll
assembly. (See Figure 19.)
IMPORTANT: If your door requires spacers, be
sure to install a spacer between
the flange bearing assembly and
the side column. (See Figure 19.)

INSTALLATION—INSTALL ENCODER
INSTALL ENCODER
1. Install the encoder coupling shaft to the end of the
motor drive shaft using a ¹/₂-13 x 1-in. hex head cap
screw, Eurodrive washer, and a split lock washer.
2. Install the FEIG encoder hub shaft end to the end of
the encoder coupling shaft and tighten set screw.
NOTE: Use a low strength thread locker on set
screw.
3. Install encoder mounting plate with encoder using
four M8 x 1¹₄ x 18 mm socket head cap screws.
4. Connect encoder cable to encoder.
5. Install plastic zip tie into socket head screw and
secure the encoder cable. (See Figure 25.)
NOTE: The zip tie that is used in the securing of
the encoder cable is of special design. The
ribbed end inserts into the valley of the
socket head cap screw.
All hardware is located in the small parts
carton.

PHOTO EYE INSTALLATION
The disconnect must be in the “OFF” posi-
tion and properly locked and tagged before
performing the following procedure.
NOTE: The door is shipped with two sets of photo
eyes. One set monitors the back side of
the door. The other set monitors the front
side of the door. Each set consists of an
emitter module and a receiver module.
The photo eyes are provided as a safety
feature. With the photo eyes correctly
installed, interrupting either set of eyes as
the door is closing will reverse the direc-
tion of the door and hold it in the fully open
position until the interruption is removed.
Figure 26
NOTE: Locate the photo eyes on the wall adjacent
to the sides of the door. Each eye must be
installed 12–36 in. above the floor and as
close to the door as possible. They must
also be mounted directly across from each
other.(See Figure 27)
The photo eyes, their required wire
cables, and mounting brackets were
shipped in the small parts carton. You
must provide the hardware to install the
brackets on your particular wall. The photo
eyes provided MUST all be properly
installed. (See Figure 27.)

IMPORTANT: To prevent the eyes on the front
side of the door from interfering
with the eyes on the back of the
door, the emitter modules must
be installed diagonally from
each other. The same is true for
the receiver modules.
1. After the mounting brackets are in place, install the
emitter module in the left bracket and the receiver
module in the right bracket.
NOTE: The receiver module can be identified by
the two small lights, one yellow and one
green. The emitter module has only a
green light. The yellow alignment light will
be lit when the photo eyes are aligned.
(See Figure 28)
Figure 28
Position the large, plastic nuts found on
the end of each photo eye so that the lens
on either eye does not protrude too far
past the edge of the mounting bracket. If a
lens sticks out too far, that photo eye will
be susceptible to damage.
2. Thread the connector found on the terminated end
of each wire cable onto the end of the photo eyes.
NOTE: Be sure the path through which the wire
cables are routed hides and protects them
from damage. If necessary, run conduit to
each mounting bracket to protect the
cables.
3. Route the wire cables from the photo eyes to the
control panel in a manner conforming to all applica-
ble codes and regulations. Shielded cable is recom-
mended for all photo eye wires.
4. Connect the photo eyes to the control panel as
shown on the schematic that was shipped with the
door.
5. After all work is complete, clean the lens of each
photo eye using window cleaner and a soft, clean
cloth.

INSTALLATION—CONTROL PANEL AND ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS
The fused disconnect must be in the OFF
position and the fuses removed before
wiring of the control box begins.
2. Run wires from the encoder and motor to the control
box using approved conduit.
Coil Cord Installation
DO NOT twist the cord during installation.
Twisting the coil cord will cause it to tangle
or fail, leading to serious problems.
Ensure that the coil cord does not have
any excessive slack when installation is
complete. It should not touch the floor.
1. Manually open the door. Allow the cord to hang
down to remove any twists in the cord.
2. Route the coil cord to a junction box near the side
column and through the hole in the junction box.
3. Place cord grip nut over the end of the coil cord. The
nut was shipped in the small parts carton.
4. Tighten the nut to attach the cord grip to the junction
box.
CONTROL PANEL AND ELECTRICAL
CONNECTIONS
Once the door has been assembled, see the Rytec Sys-
tem 3 Drive & Control Installation & Owner’s Manual for
information on control panel installation, electrical con-
nections, door limit settings, and initial door start-up pro-
cedure.
NOTE: If a floor loop is used, all wiring from the
fused disconnect to the control box and
from the control box to the motor mount
side column, as well as conduit running
from the control box to the floor, is pro-
vided by the door owner/installer or the
electrician. All wiring and conduit must
meet all local and state codes. Wires pro-
vided with the door are labeled with termi-
nal or contact numbers.
OPEN AND CLOSE DOOR LIMIT POSITIONS
See the Rytec System 3 Drive & Control Installation &
Owner’s Manual for the proper procedure for setting the
open and close door limits. The open and close limit
door positions are detailed below.
Close Limit Position
The “close” limit position should be adjusted so that the
door travel allows the yellow vinyl loop on the bottom bar
to gently seal against the floor. (See Figure 30.)
DO NOT allow the rubber reversing edge, enclosed in
the yellow vinyl loop, to come in contact with the floor.
Damage to the rubber reversing edge or
other bottom bar parts can occur if the
door seal is allowed to seal too tightly
against the floor.
Figure 30
Open Limit Position
The open limit position should be adjusted so that the
door travel allows the bottom bar assembly to stop at the
position shown in (Figure 31.)

INSTALLATION—PNEUMATIC REVERSING EDGE SWITCH ADJUSTMENT
PNEUMATIC REVERSING EDGE SWITCH
ADJUSTMENT
Do not stand under the door panel when
making check. If reversing edge switch is
not working properly, panel could strike
person performing check.
To check the reversing edge switch operation, run the
door through the down cycle. As the door is lowering,
tap the bottom of the reversing edge. If the reversing
edge switch is operating properly, the door should
immediately reverse and run to the full open position.
Push the control box push button to close the door after
the check is completed.
If the door does not reverse, check the air bleed and
sensitivity of the reversing edge switch. The switch is in
the bottom bar on the side opposite the door motor.
Reversing Edge Switch Air Bleed Check
1. The reversing edge switch is located inside the bot-
tom bar assembly. To inspect and/or adjust the
switch, remove the access cover from the face of
the bottom bar assembly. (See Figure 32.)
Figure 32
2. Make sure the clear PVC hose is in tight contact
with the air input post so that air leakage cannot
occur and that vibration will not cause the hose to
fall off. Make sure the hose is not kinked.
(See Figure 33.)
3. The air bleed has been set at the factory and should
not require adjustment. To check the air bleed, turn
the air bleed adjustment screws located on the front
and back of the switch fully clockwise, but do not
overtighten. Then turn the screws back counter-
clockwise one full turn. (See Figure 33.)
Figure 33
Reversing Edge Switch Sensitivity Adjustment
1. The reversing edge switch is a normally open con-
tact. The PVC hose is on the lower air input post. To
adjust the switch, first remove the wires and resistor
from the contact terminals and attach an ohmmeter
across the two terminals. (See Figure 34.)
2. Turn the adjustment screw, located on the face of
the switch, clockwise or counterclockwise until con-
tinuity is achieved. Then turn the screw 3/4 turn
counterclockwise. Ohmmeter should no longer
show continuity. Turning the screw counterclock-
wise decreases sensitivity. Turning the screw clock-
wise increases sensitivity. (See Figure 34.)
Figure 34
3. Attach the resistor and wires and then replace the
access cover on the bottom bar.
NOTE: Replace the resistor and mount to either
the coil cord wires or the reversing edge
switch. The reversing edge connection is
dependent on the resistor being present
on either the coil cord wires or the revers-
ing edge switch.

INSTALLATION—PNEUMATIC KILL SWITCH CHECK AND ADJUSTMENT
NOTE: If the reversing edge is set too sensitive,
the door may reverse direction during the
closing cycle, without the reversing edge
coming in contact with an object. If this
occurs, readjust the reversing edge
switch.
PNEUMATIC KILL SWITCH CHECK AND
ADJUSTMENT
A kill switch has been mounted in the bottom bar
assembly to prevent door operation if the breakaway
bottom bar becomes separated from either side column.
Kill Switch Check
Take precautions to prevent the door from
being opened or closed while performing
the following procedure.
1. Raise or lower the door to approximately head or
chest height and stop the door.
NOTE: It should not be possible to restart the door
until the door has been reassembled and
the control system reset.
2. Push the breakaway bottom bar out of the side col-
umn. Door should not operate until control box is
reset. (See Figure 35 and Figure 36.)
If the kill switch did not operate properly: Adjust
the kill switch and then recheck it. (See “Kill Switch
Air Bleed Adjustment” on this page.)
If the kill switch operated properly: Reinstall the
bottom bar into the side column. (See “RESET-
TING BOTTOM BAR ASSEMBLY” on page 16.)
Figure 35
Figure 36
Kill Switch Air Bleed Adjustment
1. The kill switch is mounted in the bottom bar assembly,
on the same side as the door motor. To access the
switch, first remove the access cover. (See Figure 37.)
Figure 37
2. Make sure the clear PVC hose is tight on the air
input post so that air leakage cannot occur and
vibration will not cause the hose to fall off. Also
make sure the hose is not kinked. (See Figure 38.)
Figure 38
3. The air bleed has been set at the factory and should
not require adjustment. To adjust the air bleed, turn
the air bleed adjustment screws located on the front
and back of the switch fully clockwise, but do not
overtighten. Then turn each screw back counter-
clockwise one full turn. (See Figure 38.)
4. To adjust the kill switch sensitivity, see “Kill Switch
Sensitivity Adjustment” on page 16.

INSTALLATION—PHOTO EYE INSPECTION
Kill Switch Sensitivity Adjustment
The kill switch assembly is a normally closed contact.
The PVC hose is on the upper air input post.
1. Remove the wires from the contact terminals and
attach an ohmmeter across the two terminals.
(See Figure 39.)
2. To adjust the switch, turn the small adjusting screw,
located on the face of the switch, clockwise or coun-
terclockwise until continuity is achieved. Then turn
the screw two turns clockwise for final adjustment.
Ohmmeter should continue to show continuity.
Turning the screw clockwise decreases sensitivity.
Turning the screw counterclockwise increases sen-
sitivity. (See Figure 39.)
Figure 39
3. Reconnect the wires onto the switch. Replace the
access cover on bottom bar.
NOTE: If the kill switch is set too sensitive, it may
cause the door to stop during the opening
or closing cycles. If this occurs, readjust
the kill switch sensitivity setting.
PHOTO EYE INSPECTION
NOTE: The door has two sets of safety photo eyes
used as a safety device to prevent the door
from closing if an object is in the path of the
door panel. The photo eyes are not meant
to be used as door activators. Both sets of
eyes must be working correctly for the door
to operate.
Indicator Lights
With power applied to the control panel, the green light
on each photo eye indicates the eye is powered up.
When the yellow light on the receiver module is also lit,
the emitter and receiver module, from the same set, are
properly aligned.
Placing your hand in front of the receiver breaks the light
path and causes the yellow light to go out. Removing
your hand causes the yellow light to go back on.
Photo Eye Test
Personnel and objects should not be in the
path of the door when the following
inspection is performed. If the photo eyes
are not working properly, the door could
strike the personnel or object in its path.
1. Raise the door to the fully open position.
2. Place an object in the path of the front photo eye
beam. Then attempt to close the door by pressing
the button on the control panel. The door should not
operate.
3. Remove the object and cycle the door to verify that
the front set of eyes is working properly. If the eyes
are not working properly, see “Photo Eye Trouble-
shooting” below.
4. Repeat the above steps on the rear set of photo
eyes to verify that both sets are working properly.
Photo Eye Troubleshooting
If either green light is not lit, make sure power is turned
on, and that all wiring has continuity and is installed and
connected properly. If the green lights are on, but the
yellow light is off, check the alignment of the emitter and
receiver modules.
RESETTING BOTTOM BAR ASSEMBLY
Turn off power to the door. Make sure
power is locked off and properly tagged.
1. Position the breakaway tabs on one end of the bot-
tom bar assembly in the side column channel. Lift
the other end of the bottom bar and position the
breakaway tabs in the remaining side column chan-
nel. (See Figure 40.)
