Safety: This Part Works With Spring Tension
Parts of the counterbalance system are loaded by the springs whenever the door is closed.
- Never loosen bottom brackets, cable drums or lift cables on a closed door with wound springs. They hold the full spring tension; unwind the springs or have a technician do the work.
- Clamp the door in place before working on it.
- Replace one part at a time and keep hands clear of the drums and cables.
If you are not trained in garage door spring work, have a technician carry out the repair.
