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 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
contacts 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 contacts
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 1/4 turn using a 7/16” wrench and
continue with step 2.
If you have a gray counter cover:
Loosen the lock nut 1/4 turn 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.

should be free to rotate in either direction.
If the counterbalance cable is still taut and
the TorqueMaster® Spring Tube is difficult
to rotate, that is an indication that spring
tension still exists on the left hand spring.
Repeat Steps 1 and 2 for releasing spring
tension on the left hand side.
Step 4: Using a flat tip screwdriver,
pry the counter gear and counter cover
from the right hand end bracket (Fig. 4

bracket (Fig. 5). Attach locking pliers to
the upper portion of the end bracket and
hold the housing steady while removing
the lower 5/16” x 1-5/8” lag screw and
#10 x 1/2” phillips head screw from the
end bracket (Fig. 6).
Step 6: Holding the right hand end
bracket steady with locking pliers,
carefully pry the end bracket and drive
gear off the winding shaft using a flat tip
screwdriver (Fig. 7).
CAUTION: THE WINDING SHAFT MAY
ROTATE WHEN REMOVING THE END
BRACKET AND DRIVE GEAR.
Step 7: Repeat Step 4 for the left hand
side. Holding the left hand end bracket
steady with locking pliers, carefully pry
the end bracket off the winding shaft
using a flat tip screwdriver (Fig. 7).
Step 8: Remove the two (2) lag bolts
attaching the center bracket assembly to
the header board (Fig. 8).
Step 9: Lift the right hand side of the
TorqueMaster® Spring Tube and slide the
cable drum off. Realign the groove in the
winding shaft with the radial notch in the
flagangle and drape the counterbalance
cable with drum over the flagangle. Lift
the left hand side of the TorqueMaster®
Spring Tube and slide the cable drum
and winding shaft off (Fig. 9). Drape the
counterbalance cable with drum over the
flagangle. Lift the TorqueMaster® spring
assembly off the flagangles and out of
the doorway. Unhook the counterbalance
cables from the bottom brackets and
remove all parts from the work area.

and extension spring. Repeat for the other
side. If safety cables are running through
the extension springs, remove them also.
Remove parts from work area.
Step 2: Holding door in the open position,
remove the vice clamps, be prepared
to support the entire weight of the door.
Garage doors can weigh 200-400 pounds.
With assistance, carefully lower the door,
by grasping the door firmly by it’s lift
handles. Do not place fingers or hands
near joints, between sections, or between
bottom of door and floor. Otherwise,
severe injury could result.
NOTE: Continue with “P4” after completing
this step.
Having removed the counterbalance
system, the door can now be
disassembled.
Start by first removing the top row of
hinges.
With assistance, hold the top section to
keep it from falling and remove the
top brackets. With assistance, lift the top
section out of the opening and remove
it from the work area. Repeat for all
remaining sections.
After door is disassembled, unbolt both
track assemblies from the jambs and
remove all material from the work area.
You can neatly dispose of the old door by
placing it in the carton of your new door.
Clean up area and complete “Preparing
the Opening” “P5” on page 10 before
installing the new door.

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 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 12” (305 mm) above the top of
the opening for TorqueMaster counterbalance systems. 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 JAMBS, HEADER AND
MOUNTING SURFACE. ANY WOOD FOUND NOT TO BE SOUND,
MUST BE REPLACED.
For TorqueMaster counterbalance systems, a suitable
mounting surface (2” x 4”) must be firmly attached to the
wall, above the header at the center of the opening.
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 the weather seal (if necessary) to fit 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 approximately 12” to 18” apart. This will keep
the bottom section from falling out of the opening during
installation.
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 approximately 12” to 18” apart. This will keep
the bottom section from falling out of the opening during
installation.
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.

the vertical track. Align the slot in the
jamb bracket with the lower hole of the
hole/slot pattern in the vertical track.
Secure jamb bracket, using
(1) 1/4”-20 x 9/16” track bolt and
1/4”-20 flange hex nut.
Place the center jamb bracket over
the hole/slot pattern that is centered
between the bottom jamb bracket and
flagangle. Align the slot in the jamb
bracket with the lower hole of the hole/
slot pattern. Loosely fasten the bracket
onto the track with (1) 1/4”-20 x 9/16”
track bolt and 1/4-20 flange hex nut.
Repeat if a third jamb bracket is
provided, equally spacing the distance
between the two center jamb brackets
and the bottom jamb bracket and
flagangle.
