You may also require a bow arm convertor. Try googling or ebay Sorry if you have already tried these. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magnese Posted May 23, 2012 Share Posted May 23, 2012 It sounds like the membrane nexus conversion mechanism is faulty to me. Luckily I have a spare one and can sell it to you for £103-59p...plus VAT. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carltoncdx Posted May 23, 2012 Share Posted May 23, 2012 what doesn't it do?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wagginfinger Posted May 24, 2012 Author Share Posted May 24, 2012 thanks for replies---it does not have a smooth operation --either up or down--it is quite a heavy door and I am not sure exactly what the bow arm is supposed to do ---it must slightly change the pivot point to allow the motor to do its work--the acompanying manual give several ways to fit different style arms but I have had no success as yet-- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I new some one who repairs garage doors who told me to get a bow arm, this makes the opening and closing more smoothly. Call in the garage door shop in Sheffield and look at how their units are connected. It used to near Bramall lane. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
