when i bought this house the door opener had stripped plastic gears in it, and i didnt get a remote. bought house out of foreclosure. well, 2.5 years later and many manual openings i have the remote and gears on order. and im sure the springs need adjustment as the door is heavier than i believe it should be for ploastic gear 1/2HP motor is designed for. question is, how light should i adjust it to. or should it be adjusted til the door is actually opening itself and the opener is for pushing it down/closed??
