Before beginning the installation, thoroughly inspect the crate to ensure all necessary components are there. The following list applies to a standard Model 570/670 door (no optional parts are indicated). Left Hand and Right Hand Side Frames with attached Covers (2 sets)
® RAPID ROLL MODEL 570/670 INSTALLATION FRAME AND GENERAL INSTALLATION Step 1 Unpack crate and inventory parts, comparing against the packing list in the front of this manual, to verify all parts are on site. Step 2 Using a tape measure; determine the actual door width by measuring the width gauge on the top roll assembly (Figure 1).
Page 8
Step 3 Verify that the opening is plumb and that the floor slab is level. If they are not, shimming and adjustments to the side frames must be made to accomplish this during door installation. Refer to approval drawings for this door to confirm drive side mounting (left or right-hand). Step 4 Remove side frames from crate (one at a time) and erect them into position against the wall at the pre-marked locations on the floor.

MAINTENANCE AND INSPECTION WARNING REMOVE ALL POWER AT THE FUSED DISCONNECT DURING ALL ELECTRICAL OR MECHANICAL SERVICING. DISCONNECT MUST BE PROPERLY LOCKED OUT DURING MAINTENANCE OR SERVICE OF EQUIPMENT. DAILY INSPECTION Run through a full door cycle (open/close) and ensure smooth operation. Verify that the door is not jammed or hanging up.
INSPECTIONS WIRE ROPE INSPECTION All wire ropes will wear out eventually and gradually lose work capability throughout their service life. That’s why periodic inspections are critical. Applicable industry standards such as ASME B30.2 for overhead and gantry cranes or federal regulations such as OSHA refer to specific inspection criteria for varied applications.

A wire rope that has been subjected to repeated bending over sheaves under normal loads. This results in fatigue breaks in individual wires – these breaks are square and usually in the crown of the strands. An example of fatigue failure of a wire rope subjected to heavy loads over small sheaves.
Here’s a wire rope that has jumped a sheave. The rope “curled” as it went over the edge of the sheave. When you study the wires, you’ll see two types of breaks here: tensile “cup and cone” breaks and shear breaks that appear to have been cut on an angle.
