Page 18: Operator Installation
Operator Installation Operator Installation 1. Determine gate opening angle and direction of operator (inward or outward). CLOSED Alternatively the swing angle can be deter- mined more accurately with the process detailed on page 37. 120° 60° 70° 110° 100° 90° 80° 2.
Page 19: Determine The Gate Bracket Position
4. Secure the bracket to the wall with the most appropriate means. See page 14 for site considerations. Determine the gate bracket position Start with the operator fully retracted. Turn out the actuator tube one or two turns. 5. Fit the gate bracket to the operator. 1 OR 2 TURNS 6.
Page 20 Unlock the operator and swing the gate closed. 9. Remove the pin and the operator from the bracket, check that there are at least one or two turns of the actuator before it is fully extended. If it becomes obvious that the operator does not have enough stroke, reduce either the A or B distances by moving the wall bracket.
Page 21: Adjust Origin Clamp
12. Fit operator, gate bracket pins and snap rings As an alternative to the snap ring, fit a padlock. Adjust origin clamp (NB - Not required for outward swinging gates) 13.Unlock the operator and open the gate fully 14. Slide the origin clamp along the actuator tube, right up to the operator.

Electrical Set-up Electrical Set-up WARNING 1. Always check that the isolator in the mains supply to the gate is in the OFF position, before doing any work. 2. Ensure that all low voltage systems (Less than 42.4V) are suitably protected from damage, by disconnecting all sources of power such as chargers and batteries before doing any work.
