Fitting Instructions for cables & rollers
on Cardale Mk2/3 canopy
doors with centrally-mounted overhead clock spring drum

SAFETY NOTE

The spring drum is pre-tensioned and holds immense
force, consequently the job can be dangerous

SAFETY GLASSES AND GLOVES SHOULD BE WORN AT ALL TIMES

IF IN DOUBT, THIS WORK SHOULD BE CARRIED
OUT BY AN EXPERIENCED INSTALLER



CAR0040 Support Cable Replacement

1/ Close the door and pull on one of the cables and rotate the central spring drum until all four holes in the spring drum & mounting bracket line up with each other, then place a 4" nail (or similar pin) through these holes to prevent the drum from rotating and hold back the spring tension while you carry out out the following procedure.

2/ Remove the bottom fixing screw from the vertical track and remove the cable from the roller spindle, unhook the other end of the cable from the spring drum. Take one of the new cables and fit this in the reverse order.  Replace the second cable in the same way.

3/ Check that both the new cables are routed correctly over the pulleys then apply tension to one of the cables and rotate the central spring drum to enable the 4" nail (or similar pin) to be removed

Note: It is important that support cables are a matched length so we recommend both are replaced as a pair.
 

CAR0080 Roller Spindle Replacement
 
Before replacing the side rollers you will first need relax the tension on the cables by following step 1/ above.

Remove the bottom fixing screws from the vertical tracks on both sides of the door, remove the roller spindle fixing nuts, pull the door clear of the vertical tracks and slide-out the old roller spindles, transfer the support cables onto the new CAR0080 roller spindles and re-fit in reverse order,  replace the track fixing screws & finally pull on one of the cables to rotate the central spring drum to allow some slack, then remove the 4" nail (or similar pin) you placed through the holes in the drum earlier.

Oil the roller spindles on installation and again at 12 month intervals

All work is undertaken at your own risk
