How do I replace a Novomatic motor head?

Has your Novoferm Novomatic motor head broken down?

Novoferm does not supply the internal opener components (motor, motherboard, transformer…)

Here's how to replace it without changing the rail:

Recent Novomatic openers are fitted on the same rails; check that your rail is indeed identical to the current rails: https://www.aidegar.fr/1040-rail-motorisation-novomatic-porte-garage-novoferm-nff11785.html

If that's the case, the head can be changed easily in a few minutes.

This tutorial shows how to replace it without touching the rail already installed.
