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
on previous page). Discard the counter
gear and counter cover. On double spring
applications, repeat for left hand side.
step 5: Remove the upper 5/16” x
1-5/8” lag screw from the right hand end
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).

steady with locking pliers, carefully pry

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 round 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
