www.thesportscreen.com/instructional-videos
PREPARATION
Sweep and clean your driveway before you begin assembly of The SportScreen. The following tools are needed in order
to install
TOOLS NEEDED
Ladders
Tape Measure
Level
Marker/Pencil
Phillips Screwdriver bit
Power Drill
Safety Glasses
Hammer
A partner
/1 reh
PARTS NEEDED
Appropriate fastening screws are required to mount the brackets to your house. These can be
purchased at your local hardware store.
ASSEMBLY
Step 1: Mounting Options
For your convenience The SportScreen can be mounted in two ways:
a) Inside mount: mount The SportScreen inside of the garage door jambs
b) Surface mount: mount The SportScreen on the brick or siding
(See Next Page for Detail)

The Sportscreen can be mounted as high as 108. For higher outigs, otat ustoer serie for a
custom build unit.
Step 2: Head roll Tube Assembly (SEE DETAIL D)
Lay out on a flat surface the head roll tube[1] components.
The head roll tubes[1] and Joiner[2] are supposed to be a tight fit with each other. Connect the head
roll tube[1] and line up the Velcro with each piece
Ensure the joiners[2] are distributed evenly in each tube. They are marked at center.
.
When the Joiner[2] is completely inserted into the tubes[1], the assembled tube should be checked to
ensure it is straight. This can be done by rolling the tube on a flat surface like the garage floor or the
driveway.
a) Inside Mount
b) Surface Mount
For the inside mount, the wall mount bracket is
mounted directly to the wood door jamb using 4
woodscrews. The brackets are mounted to the
garage door frame at the upper corners.
The Surface Mount is used for screens that are
mounted directly on the surface of the building.

Use a power drill and the 1/2Phillip screws[23] that are provided to install the screws on the pre-
marked holes on the tube[1]
Tip the head roll tube[1] towards the open end (the idler end) to empty out any aluminum shavings. If
this is not done, you will hear rattling in the tube during operation.
Step 3: Bracket location
Determine the placement of the motor (left side or right side) in relation to your power supply.
Depending on whether you are doing an inside mount or a surface mount, you will need to fasten the
drop-in bracket[5] with the Machine Screw and Nylock Nut [8] to the Wall Mount Bracket(Angle
Bracket)[4] such that the slotted grove is facing up. The star bracket[14] can be fastened any way.

9.3”
Note: This area should be free of all obstructions since the head roll tube[1] will be mounted here.
Attach both angle brackets[4]+[13] to the wall, with one installer at each end and ladders in place, lift
the entire assembly up into the desired location. The motor end must be inserted first.
Place the wire on the motor end downwards, so that water and ice will not funnel into the motor.
Take the idle end[3] and insert it into the angle bracket[4], and move the bracket until it is secure in
the slotted grove. (SEE DETAIL A and DETAIL B)
Install the lock pin for idler end[6] first to prevent the head roll assembly from falling out of the
brackets. Then install the motor end cotter pin[12] and it should be bent open after been inserted to
ensure it will not fall out. DO NOT proceed to next step until the both cotter pins[12]+[6] have been
inserted and bent open. (SEE DETAIL A and DETAIL B)
Ensure that the head roll tube[1] is straight, you may notice some deflection due to the wide
distance the screen spans, this is normal.

5
Step 4: Mounting the Screen
The screen is to roll off the front of the head roll tube[1] (see mounting options on page 2)
“tartig aout ¾ i fro the motor on the head roll tube[1], begin to attach the screen to
the Velcro; you will need another person to hold the screen.
This ensures The SportScreen rolls up and it does so evenly, otherwise, it will NOT roll up
properly.
Step 5: Wiring
If you would like to have your wire fed through your house, drill a hole into your house from your
garage usig a iiu 3/ learae drill it.
Once The SportScreen is mounted, take the cord from the end of the motor and feed it through the
hole into your garage.
Once the wire is through the wall, attach the wall plug, wiring the green wire to the green and the
other two to either end. The power cord should be tightened inside of the cap so that no wiring is
visible. (see drawing below) NOTE: you will see a cut off black wire. Do not expose or use this wire. It is
obsolete and not needed.
Place the power cord on the motor end downwards, so that water and ice will not funnel into the
motor.
Step 6: Programming your Remote Control
The SportScreen remote control is already pre-programmed with The SportScreen motor. Install the
battery into the back of your remote. If you would like to set up a new remote, or your remote is not
pre-programmed. Follow these steps
1) Unplug the wall plug
2) Hold Up button (5 seconds)
3) Plug the wall plug back in while still holding the up button
4) Listen for beeping from the motor
5) As the motor is beeping, rapidly press the up button
**If your motor has been mounted on the left side, your buttons are opposite. To reverse this, follow these
steps:
1) Unplug the wall plug
2) Hold the up button (5 seconds)
3) Plug the wall plug back in while still holding the up button
4) Listen for beeping from the motor
5) As the motor is beeping, rapidly press the down button

6
Step 7: Assembling & Inserting Mid Bar and Bottom Bar
Mid Bar
Join the middle bars[20] together by sliding the outer rods over the preinstalled joiner[21]
section. (SEE DETAIL G)
Use the 1/2Phillip screws[23] , fasten the screws in the pre marked holes to connect the
rods together.
Insert the assembled middle bar through the pocket at the center of the screen.
Fit the middle bar end caps Velcro[22] into both ends of the middle bar. You may need to
gently tap with a hammer. (SEE DETAIL F)
Bottom Bar
Join the bottom bar sections[17] together by sliding the bottom bar joiner[18] into the
other bottom bar(s) using a hammer. (SEE DETAIL E)
Note: This is a jam fit and may require hitting the bar against a solid surface or wall. We
suggest putting a piece of wood between the surface and the tube to avoid damaging
the surface .
Insert the assembled bottom bar through the pocket at the bottom of the screen.
Using a hammer, tap the bottom bar end caps[19] onto both sides of the bottom bar. (SEE
DETAIL C)
Step 8: Setting Your Upper and Lower Limits
WE STRONGLY ADVISE WATCHING OUR INSTRUCTIONAL VEDIOS AT
WWW.THESPORTSCREEN.COM/INSTRUCTIONAL-VEDIOS BEFORE YOU SETTING YOUR LIMITS
The liit sets how high or low The SportScreen will roll when activated by the remote(s). There is an
adjusting screw on either side of the power cord.

Step 9: Display Warnings
Display the warning information sign either inside or near your garage to ensure users
remain safe and are aware of any dangers.
Section 3: Troubleshooting
Check out our instructional videos at www.thesportscreen.ca/instructional-videos
My motor is not working:
Make sure the batteries have a charge. To check this, press the up button and you will see a red light at
the top of the remote.
Make sure the wires in the wall plug are connected properly
Make sure your remote is synced to The SportScreen (see page 5)
My motor was working and then it stopped working:
These motors are designed to operate occasionally and not continuously. This also protects against any
jamming or bending of the curtain during roll up phase.
These motors have a built in safety thermal overload. This means that IF the unit is operated
frequently, repeatedly and/or the curtain gets caught the motor will heat up and the thermal safety
will automatically shut it off until it cools down.
In this situation, you are required to wait 20-30 minutes until the unit automatically starts up
Make sure there is nothing obstructing the screens range of motion
I at set y liits:
Refer back to page 6-7 – “ettig Your Upper ad Loer Liits
My Screen is not rolling up evenly:
Ensure that the screen is straight across the Velcro.
Since the SportScreen is made of a durable mesh material it has a natural stretch charactistic to it.
Therefore, some fine tuning may be required once the screen is installed correctly.
1) Cycle the screen up a quarter of the way from the complete down position
2) Look at the screen and by grabbing the bottom bar pocket, tug on the high side of the screen (left
or right)
3) Cycle the screen up to half way and, if necessary, repeat step #2
4) Cycle the screen up three quarters of the way and, if necessary, repeat step #2 again
My curtain and/or target flips over the top ar:
The upper limit is set slightly too high.
See pages 7 for lowering the upper limit.
If you are still having issues, call 1-855-727-3360
